Rolex watches are almost always popular among watch brand collectors. However, some people like them, while others cannot understand the feeling of mixing two metals on a fake watch. As big fans of two-color Rolex watches, we are clearly in the first camp. If you’re not sure if you can keep up with the return of two-color luxury watches, take a look at these three modern two-color Rolex watches and they’re likely to take you in the right direction.
Rolex has been making two-tone watch steel and yellow gold watches since the 1930s. In fact, the company trademarked the name “Rolesor,” which is the official Rolex term for their two-tone watches.
Let’s start with an updated classic—a two-tone Rolex Datejust 41 ref. 126333. Classic because the ref. 126333 has all the Datejust traits we’ve come to know and love and updated since it’s part of the larger and upgraded Datejust 41 collection.
The rolex datejust 41 replica model sports a (naturally) 41mm stainless steel case topped with the familiar fluted bezel in yellow gold and decorated with a yellow screw-down winding crown. Carrying on the golden hue is the champagne dial, which is home to luminescent baton hour markers or diamond hour makers and the famed date window at 3 o’clock.
Aside from the dress fake watch, two-tone Rolex watches also come in sportier styles. Take for example the two-tone Rolex Submariner replica. The combination of robust stainless steel, precious 18k yellow gold, and ultra-modern black ceramic come together to make one much more attractive Submariner.
The latest model in this two-tone Rolex roundup, the Sky-Dweller ref. 326933 made its debut at Baselworld. This was the first time Rolex made a half-gold model of the Sky-Dweller available, thereby significantly dropping the entry price of their annual calendar watch.
While the fake rolex Sky-Dweller is one of the few Rolex watches with a leather band, the appeal of a two-tone oyster bracelet is difficult to resist. Although Rolex has had two-tone watches on its catalogue for 80 years, these modern versions show that wearing a mixture of steel and gold is far from outdated. Two-tone Rolex watches emphasize that some typical patterns are worth a long-term favorite.
