Rolex mother-of-pearl dial! Colorful who do you love?
In the last article , we mentioned that the 2023 Datejust 4 1MM diameter mother- of - pearl dial model was discontinued . Many friends in the background asked if they could talk more about Rolex . A mother-of -pearl dial ? This is arranged!
Mother-of -pearl material generally exists in the outer layer of pearls and the inner layer of shells of pearl oysters or freshwater pearl molluscs . The English name of mother -of-pearl is M o t h e r o f P e a r l , inside Rolex Based on this English acronym , the mother - of - pearl dial is marked ( M.O.P ) _ _ _
The advantage of the mother- of-pearl dial is that it is very versatile . The texture of each piece of mother- of -pearl is different , and there is no trouble with oxidation ! However , the mother-of-pearl dial is also extremely fragile , making it even more delicate !
The first one we want to introduce is the Tahitian Fritillary , also known as the Black Butterfly Fritillary . This kind of caladium , native to the South Pacific , is famous for its dark tones and varied colors .
Tahitian Fritillaria is not only black , some dials are made from the colorful edges of the butterfly shell , which is even more versatile under the dark color !
Tahitian pearls were briefly subject to export controls from the 1990s to 2017 due to overexploitation . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
How to tell the difference between Tahitian caladiums ? In fact , it depends on the background color . The background color is dark , and it is most likely Tahiti ! Even if it is blue , purple , or various colors ... _ _
In sharp contrast to the Tahitian Fritillary is the White Fritillary , also known as Pinctada maxima and the most common Fritillary . _ _
Some caladiums are so bright that they are almost pure white , making it difficult to discern their cloud- like color patterns .
The white caladiums are like clouds in the sky , clustered and pearly white , giving them a unique charm .
Have you seen the wealthy gold fritillary ? In fact, this is what everyone often calls champagne caladium , which is a branch of white caladium and is mainly golden in color .
This type of golden champagne-colored fritillary is considered very rare among Rolex fritillaries . It was initially classified as white fritillary . Later, as players continued to explore , it was finally classified as white fritillary . Become a party !
A step further than gold is the yellow fritillary , which appears only briefly above the four beauties .
The Millennium Rolex “ Four Beauties ” sparked the pink craze in one fell swoop . In recent years , pink caladium has also been sought after by many people .
This pink and tender caladium can not only touch the hearts of thousands of women , but also attract the majority of male cousins to charge for it ! Who wouldn't love it ?
A senior once said : If the pearls are left to women , then the mother - of-pearls should be left to our male compatriots !
