It will not fit models with sapphire crystals or other references. Always confirm your watch model and crystal type before purchasing, as incorrect installation can lead to poor fit or damage.

This item has been available since May 21, 2018, and is categorized under men’s accessories. While it offers a cost-effective way to restore your watch’s appearance, it is not a genuine Rolex component and should be used with an understanding of its aftermarket nature.
