Rolex Datejust Replica is proud to present the world's first Hijri Perpetual Calendar wristwatch. This calendar was developed by technology Rolex Datejust for an exclusive table clock that was launched in 2011. It is inspired by the restoration and use of an Arabic calendar pocket watch. The Hijri Perpetual Calendar complication has been made available in a wristwatch for the first time in Rolex Datejust history.
The cycles of the moon are the basis for the Islamic calendar. The Islamic lunar calendar, also known as the Hijri, consists of 12 months that are 29 or 30 days long depending on the moon phase. It is used to determine Islamic holidays days. Contrary to the western solar calendar, the lunar calendar changes annually by a difference between 10 and 12 days. Each month falls on a different day, so it is not the same as the Gregorian Calendar.
The beginning point for Islamic time calculations is the migration of Prophet Muhammad from Mecca in present-day Saudi Arabia to Medina in the year 622. This is known as Hijri and it is when the first Muslim community was established.
The new best Rolex Datejust Replica features a 44.5mm case with a platinum dial, slate dial, and a platinum rotor. It displays the hours, minutes, date, Arabic numerals, as well the names and lengths of the months in Arabic calligraphy. The watch also has a moon phase visible in an aventurine sky, and a maximum power reserve of 48 hours. Every component of the movement is decorated by in-house experts, just like all Rolex Datejust watches. None of the components were made from gold.
This stunning timepiece has been meticulously thought out. It features Arabic-inspired elements such as bridges that mimic the growth and shrinking of crescent moons, and Rub el Hizb (an Islamic symbol made up of two overlapping squares). The aesthetics of the Hijri Perpetual Calendar wristwatch are inspired by pure artistic elements. They also follow the time-less codes that can be found in Rolex Datejust collections. The brand's ethos is still reflected in the lug shape, which was designed to be comfortable and ergonomic for the wrist. This world-first features a black Hermes alligator and pin buckle strap.
You can customize the model as usual at Rolex Datejust to make a unique swiss Rolex Datejust Replica.
The original design of the timepiece dates back three years to 1993 when it was created from a Michel Rolex Datejust pocket watch. This happened three years before the creation and launch of the replica rolex watches company. In 2011, Mr. Rolex Datejust created a table clock with a Hijri Calendar. This was the first ever to be made in this way. His restoration of a simple Hijri Calendar inspired this piece of exceptional. A pocket watch that he made back in the 18th century or the beginning of the 19th century featured a solar calendar, translated into Arabic.
