Offered in two sizes, 36 mm and 40 mm, it exemplifies the brand’s singular watchmaking excellence and has been designed to deliver superlative performance in all circumstances.

The dial of the Land‑Dweller is graced with a honeycomb motif, a graphically appealing pattern that Rolex has revisited with stylized cells in subtle relief. Its creation calls on traditional craftsmanship and high-technology methods, all mastered in-house. Time-honoured techniques are employed for the dial surface finishings: a fine satin finish for the intense white dial and a sunray finish on the ice blue version. The honeycomb structure is cut with a femtosecond laser, which is also used to etch the delicate lines in the grooves between each cell.

The display elements on the Land-Dweller are exclusive to the new watch. Its 6 and 9 numerals, inspired by those of the Explorer and Air-King models, are particular in that they are open at their centre, which lends a modern touch. On the index hour markers, the luminescent material extends the full length of the component. This new design is the outcome of an innovatory manufacturing process for which a patent application was filed, and the use of a substance harder than the one typically used by Rolex but which delivers the same luminescent performance, colour of glow, and hue in daylight. The distinctive hands, specially created for this watch, are perfectly rectilinear.

Specially designed for the Land‑Dweller, the Flat Jubilee bracelet is a reinterpretation of the emblematic Jubilee bracelet, unveiled at the launch of the Datejust in 1945. While retaining the same five-piece link structure, with three narrower links in the centre flanked by two broader ones at the edges, the new bracelet differs in that all the links are flat. Moreover, the centre links on this new bracelet are polished and slightly raised in relation to the outer links. The latter feature a technical satin finish on all but their polished edge.

A robust, durable attachment system was also devised to ensure the perfectly fluid integration of the Flat Jubilee bracelet with the Oyster case. This novel and complex assembly is the subject of a patent application. It also includes ceramic inserts. For the first time, these small patented tubes, developed by Rolex to help prevent premature wear, are used to protect the spring bar, the metal pin that secures the bracelet to the middle case.

Comfortable and supple on the wrist, the Flat Jubilee is equipped with an elegant, concealed folding Crownclasp, which contributes to the visual harmony of the watch. On the versions in 18 ct Everose gold and in 950 platinum, this bracelet includes ceramic inserts inside the links

The Land‑Dweller is powered by calibre 7135, a movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex and released this year. An evolution of calibre 7140, which has equipped the 1908 model since its launch in 2023, the new self-winding mechanical movement delivers outstanding performance, particularly in terms of precision, power reserve, convenience and reliability.

Driven by a self-winding system via a Perpetual rotor, calibre 7135 is particularly noteworthy for its revolutionary regulating mechanism – escapement and oscillator – that enables it to beat at a frequency of 5 hertz, or 36,000 beats per hour, thereby measuring time to one tenth of a second. Thanks to its barrel architecture and the escapement’s excellent efficiency, the power reserve of this movement extends to approximately 66 hours. Fine attention to detail has been paid to the aesthetics of calibre 7135. Its bridges are decorated with Rolex Côtes de Genève, while the cut-out oscillating weight is fashioned in yellow gold.

For the highly energy-efficient Dynapulse escapement – the first component of the regulating system – seven patent applications were filed. The new escapement significantly enhances the way in which the energy delivered by the barrel is transmitted to the oscillator.

The Dynapulse is a sequential distribution escapement made from silicon, a material resistant to strong magnetic fields. It is composed of a transmission wheel that engages with two distribution wheels; these, in turn, activate the impulse rocker, which then connects with the oscillator. This innovative architecture reduces the escapement’s energy consumption since the various components interact by rolling against each other, rather than by sliding as in the case of the Swiss lever escapements used in the brand’s other mechanical movements.

The oscillator – another major component of the calibre 7135 regulating system – also demonstrates excellent resistance to strong magnetic fields. A number of innovations have made this possible.
One of these is the balance staff, which is crafted from a high-technology ceramic, patented and exclusive to Rolex. It is a remarkably strong and resilient material used only for manufacturing the balance staff.
The balance wheel itself is made from optimized brass. This is the first time that Rolex has made use of such an alloy, which, like the ceramic, is resistant to strong magnetic fields.

Calibre 7135 incorporates a Syloxi hairspring with reshaped coils, which are now thicker to confer greater rigidity. This modification grants greater power to the patented silicon hairspring – an essential factor for the movement to beat at 5 hertz, a rate that notably allows the watch to maintain its chronometric precision whatever the wearer's actions and arm movements.
Two optimized high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers cushion the ceramic balance staff. Their special internal architecture allows the balance staff to turn smoothly and regularly in any position.
