Rolex’s ability to create high-quality and efficient sports watches is universally known. Although not entirely abandoned, the creation of cases with more imaginative and particular designs is favored on a more essential and practical one. Yet the brand of English origin, especially at the beginning of its history, has amply demonstrated its inventive capacity, creating watches with absolutely intriguing shapes and high aesthetic taste. One of the examples is provided here with this beautiful Rolex Perpetual reference 3782. Its delicate pink gold case has a decidedly unusual design for Rolex standards and for this very reason it strikes from the first glance for its beauty and excellent state of preservation. The lugs, directly welded to the case, represent another centralizing detail of attention due to their bulk more massive than the rest of the composition and their decidedly unusual shape. Following the tone-on-tone is the beautiful quadrant, also in pink. Devoid of imperfections, it is distinguished by Roman indexes, closed minutesì track and the signature in a rather delicate black and by the auxiliary dial of the seconds with guilloche decorations. Simple and very elegant this watch is the testimony of an often underestimated ability of Rolex.
