Alongside the men's models, Rolex produced a more discreet feminine version of the Precision. In the 1940s and 1950s, a jewelry vein was added: small cocktail watches in precious metal, whose dial was sometimes concealed under an opening cover, set with diamonds and mounted on a woven gold bracelet. Hand-assembled, these pieces are among the last Rolex watches entirely crafted by hand. Watchmaking then extended a hand to jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePersonality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opening cover, hinged, conceals the dial under a scattering of diamonds forming a five-pointed star around a central stone. The transition to the bracelet is made on either side of the case by diamond bouquet lugs. Woven with two chevron strands of white gold, the bracelet remains supple and fluid on the wrist; it closes with a ladder clasp stamped with the Rolex crown, reinforced by a safety chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWatch serviced.
