The luxury Swiss watchmaker Rolex is presenting some of its iconic timepieces at the ongoing Doha Jewellery and Watches Exhibition (DJWE) 2022. Showcased are classic and new collections of various models that appeal to watch enthusiasts. Located at the Fifty One East Pavilion, Rolex is an all-time favourite of watch lovers as well as collectors. The Rolex booth epitomises the iconic brand with its stellar collections. Rolex recently unveiled its 2022 Oyster Perpetual Air King, Oyster Perpetual Datejust 31 at the Watches and Wonders Geneva 2022.

The Rolex booth at DJWE is hugely popular among watch connoisseurs at the exhibition. The new-generation Oyster Perpetual Air-King features a completely redesigned case with a crown guard and straight sides like the majority of professional category models. The proportions of the Oyster bracelet have also been revisited, and notably the centre link has been broadened. In a first for the model, it is equipped with an Oysterlock safety clasp. The watch’s display has also been refreshed and is perfectly balanced thanks to the addition of a ‘0’ before the ‘5’ on the minutes scale.

A paragon of robustness and reliability, the 40mm Oyster case of the new-generation Oyster Perpetual Air King is guaranteed waterproof to a depth of 100m and its middle case is crafted from a solid block of Oystersteel, a particularly corrosion-resistant alloy. The case back, edged with fine fluting, is hermetically screwed down with a special tool that allows only Rolex watchmakers to access the movement.
The Twinlock winding crown, fitted with a double waterproofness system and protected by an integral crown guard, screws down securely against the case. The crystal is made of virtually scratchproof sapphire and benefits from an antireflective coating. The waterproof Oyster case provides optimum protection for the watch’s movement.

In addition, the new-generation Air-King benefits from an optimised Chromalight display, guaranteeing maximum legibility in dark conditions. The new-generation Air-King is equipped with caliber 3230, a movement at the forefront of watchmaking technology, enabling it to display the hours, minutes and seconds. Like all Rolex watches, the Oyster Perpetual Air-King carries the Superlative Chronometre certification, which ensures excellent performance on the wrist.
Another 2022 Rolex collection is the elegant Oyster Perpetual Datejust 31 which is available in three new versions with striking floral-motif dials. Calling to mind wild summer meadows, the design comprises 24 flowers that stand out distinctly from one another thanks to their finishes – either sunray, matt or grained. Each of the flowers is lit from within by a diamond set into the centre.
On the second watch, crafted from 18 carat yellow gold, it is in olive green, and on the third – an Everose Rolesor version, combining Oystersteel and Everose gold – it is in silver. On the second and third watches the bezel is set with 46 brilliant-cut diamonds, and they are equipped with a President bracelet and a Jubilee bracelet respectively. The new versions of the Datejust 31 are equipped with caliber 2236, a movement at the forefront of watchmaking technology, enabling them to display the hours, minutes, seconds and date.
The Rolex booth also boasts of its other time tested and exotic collections and offers the best of the legendary brand.
