It is perhaps one of the greatest injustices in horology that women's wristwatches have not historically received the same respect as their larger cased counterparts, resulting in far fewer executions worth collecting. 

This is truly a shame - but fortunately, Rolex got the memo long before most, and have been producing outstanding ladies watches for over 50 years. And we're talking about the real thing - not those that utilize faux-gold, not-so-precious stones and batteries - Rolex's offerings are mechanical, functional, wearable art.

This particular Pearlmaster dates to circa 2000 and features a flawless 18K white gold Oyster case with a white gold bezel with factory diamonds, a sunburst silver dial with applied white golf Roman indices, a signed crown, and a matching white gold Pearlmaster bracelet with a signed hidden deployant clasp.

While not for everyone, and perhaps even a bit excessive - the Pearlmaster was created to be excessive - to be more.

We think it has achieved that target with aplomb.
