Mary Ellen Bartley的书籍摄影

Mary Ellen Bartley是我见过的最为特别的摄影师,她能将书籍的美展现得如此令人惊叹。Blue Books是她最著名的一个主题摄影系列。精装书如深沉大海般的蓝,平装书边缘清淡温暖的色系,书页间零碎丰富的色块。创造出自己的摄影风格,无论这种美出自何处,都是想象力和目光犀利的巧妙融合。

How to choose a Rolex watch? Complete Guide to Rolex watches

How many Rolex Models are There? – 16 models

How to choose a Rolex watch model? Rolex has a total of 16 models, Rolex Datejust, Rolex Day-Date, Rolex Masterpiece, Rolex Oyster Perpetual, Rolex Air-King, Rolex Yacht-Master, Rolex Yachtmaster II, Rolex Explorer, Rolex Explorer II, Rolex Sea-Dweller, Rolex Submariner, Rolex GMT Master II, Rolex Cosmograph Daytona, Rolex Sky-Dweller, Rolex Milgauss, Rolex Cellini

Note: The above taxonomy is Rolex’s own. For our purposes, we’ve separated Yacht-Master and Yacht-Master II into two separate categories, as they’re very different watches, and did the same for Explorer and Explorer II models. We do not, however, differentiate between Datejust and Lady-Datejust, the way that Rolex does. Further, the Deepsea is a Sea-Dweller variant, and thus we include it within that particular model family. Learn more about rolex replica deals.

How to choose a Rolex watch case

First, Rolex Watch case colors options, including Stainless Steel 2-Tone, and rose gold.

What is 2-Tone?

2-Tone (Also called two-tone) is the combination of gold and steel, and today, Rolex makes two different 2 tone variants. This is yellow gold and steel two tone, and rose gold and steel tone tone. Most commonly for a Rolex two-tone watch is that the case is made in stainless steel.

How to Choose a Rolex watch dial

Rolex Datejust / Day-date dials available in Roman markers, Arabic markers, Diamond markers,  bar / stick markers, super Lume markers and other markers. Those dials are normally for Rolex Oyster Perpetual models.

Rolex Datejust watch dial options

How to Choose a Rolex watch bezel Guide

Rolex Datejust / Day-Date / Oyster Perpetual bezel is available in a fluted bezel, smooth bezel, round bezel, and diamond bezel.  Also available with ceramic bezels for Submariner, Deepsea, and Daytona.

How to Choose a Rolex watch band? Hollow end links vs solid end links

OLD STYLE: Oyster watch band, Jubilee watch band, president watch band, Submariner watch all old models. Why do we call it old style? Because those watch bands have hollow end links, Hollow end links have their charm on a vintage watch, With hollow end links providing a lighter fit on the wrist and solid end links providing a heftier fit.

Rolex Jubilee watch band generation, Old model vs new model vs the newest style

NEW Rolex watch bands Oyster watch band, Jubilee watch band, president watch band, Submariner watchband, and Deepsea watch bracelet.  New style Rolex watch bands with solid end links. solid end links are terrific (top). Sturdy, quiet, tightly aligned, an elegant solution. Certainly more befitting a luxury timepiece.

One reason Rolex went to solid links vs. hollow links on their bracelets is the issue with bracelets stretching. The pin that held each link together would bend over time as the watch moved around and up and down on your wrist. The solid links have the pin drilled into the solid stock so the stretching issue won’t happen.

Both the older hollow end links and the newer solid end links have their strengths and weaknesses. On the one hand, you can easily adjust folded end links to make them fit your case better when they start to rattle, by readjusting them. With a solid end link, if it’s too tight, you need to file it down. On the other hand, hollow end links are liable to deform over time. In the best circumstances, there will be a little slop, and you’ll hear some rattle. But in the worst case, your bracelet could fall out. Solid end links provide top quality performance, they fit more snugly, and they don’t rattle. They can also last as long as the rest of your watch, without getting slowly bent out of place.
