Key Features

• Scratch-Resistant Sapphire Surface: Constructed from high-grade plated sapphire material, this crystal offers exceptional durability against abrasions, scuffs, and surface damage. Unlike standard mineral glass, it resists fine scratches from daily contact with clothing, desks, or light impacts, helping maintain a pristine appearance over years of use.
• 2.5x Cyclops Magnification: The integrated cyclops lens provides a precise 2.5x magnification of the date window, enhancing readability without altering the dial’s visual balance. This feature mirrors the functionality of the original Rolex design, ensuring the date remains clearly visible at a glance.
• Zero Lens Distortion: Carefully engineered to deliver optical clarity, the crystal ensures a true-to-life view of the dial with no warping or visual distortion. This means numerals, hands, and markers appear exactly as intended, preserving the precision and elegance of the watch face.
• No Logo or Markings: The surface is completely clean—free from branding, engravings, or manufacturer markings. This maintains the original, understated aesthetic of the Rolex Lady Datejust, making it ideal for those who prefer a factory-original look.
