The Rolex 1908 52508 in 18k yellow gold with an intense white dial embodies Rolex’s modern vision of classic watchmaking, combining timeless design with contemporary mechanics. The 39mm slim Oyster case, finely polished and paired with a fluted and domed bezel, offers an elegant silhouette that pays tribute to early Rolex models while standing out as a sophisticated, minimalist dress watch.

The intense white dial is crisp and refined, featuring gold Arabic numerals at 3, 9, and 12 o’clock, slender hour markers, and a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock for balanced simplicity. Powered by the manual-winding Caliber 7140, the watch delivers a 66-hour power reserve, Superlative Chronometer precision, and showcases its exquisite finishing through a transparent sapphire caseback.

The Rolex 1908 52508 in 18k yellow gold with an intense white dial is a refined celebration of classical watchmaking elevated through Rolex’s modern lens. The 39mm slim Oyster case is sculpted in polished yellow gold, featuring a delicately fluted bezel and domed sapphire crystal that evoke the elegance of early 20th-century Rolex models while embracing contemporary proportions.

The intense white dial is crisp and understated, distinguished by gold Arabic numerals at 3, 9, and 12, slender baton hour markers, and a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock. The fine railroad-style minute track and leaf-shaped hands reflect the design codes of traditional dress watches, resulting in a dial layout that is balanced, legible, and timeless.

At its core is the manual-winding Caliber 7140, developed specifically for the 1908 collection. It delivers a 66-hour power reserve, high-performance regulation via a Syloxi hairspring, and an exceptional level of finishing typically hidden in Rolex watches—but here, visible through a sapphire caseback. The movement features hand-finished Côtes de Genève, polished bevels, and a gold bridge engraved with the Rolex crown.

It’s a sophisticated choice for collectors seeking a Rolex that bridges horological tradition with modern craftsmanship.

Best purchase experience I could have imagined. Donald from Wrist Aficionado was very helpful and responsive whether by text, phone call or email. Shared videos with me and helped me get the watch I have been chasing for sometime. I have found my preferred watch dealer and will be a repeat customer. Payment processed same day and the watch ship later that day. A Very Happy Customer. Thank you everyone at the WA team!

Dealing with Vadim was a pleasure. The price was very fair and the communication and service was perfect. I buy a lot of watches and this experience was as good as they get. The audemars piguet arrived right on time and packaged beautifully. They even threw in a little gift!
