(Estate Sale)

Overview & Distinction

The Ref. 80308 in 18k white gold, adorned with blue sapphires, represents the pinnacle of Rolex’s high jewelry craftsmanship—combining prestige, rare gemstones, and impeccable design. It’s a dazzling, limited-production timepiece that transforms luxury into wearable art.

Key Features

• Case: 29mm 18k white gold Oyster case, polished to a mirror-like shine, combining resilience with elegant proportions.

• Bezel: A bold ring of 40 baguette-cut blue sapphires, precision-set to follow the bezel’s curve flawlessly.

• Dial: A luminous mother-of-pearl face accented with blue sapphire hour markers, contributing to a surreal and refined shimmer.

• Bracelet: The signature Pearlmaster bracelet in matching white gold—each link finely polished and possibly accented with gemstones for added luxury.

• Movement: Powered by the robust Rolex Caliber 2235, an automatic movement that’s both COSC‑certified and renowned for reliability and precision.

• Water Resistance: Rated to 100 meters, thanks to its Triplock crown, combining everyday safety with elegance.

Why It Stands Out

This white-gold version is rarer still than its yellow-gold counterpart, thanks to its striking contrast: the cool white metal enhances the deep blue of the sapphires—a modern, regal aesthetic that’s both masculine and feminine. This piece is the epitome of exclusivity and elegance, ideal for collectors who value both craftsmanship and rarity.
