The first watch she championed was the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Land-Dweller 36, a 36 mm model crafted in 18 ct Everose gold and adorned with a diamond-set bezel. Its self-winding Perpetual mechanical movement (Calibre 2232) offers chronometer-certified accuracy, while the Oyster case, waterproof to 100 meters, symbolizes endurance and control. Its honeycomb-patterned dial captures light with an almost musical rhythm, echoing the interplay of tones in Wang’s performances. Introduced at Watches & Wonders 2025, the Land-Dweller was conceived for “those who open new horizons.” For Rolex, Yuja Wang was the natural embodiment of that spirit—a pianist who refuses to be confined by convention, constantly expanding the emotional landscape of her art. When she appeared in the official campaign wearing the Everose gold Land-Dweller, the image was deliberate. She was not merely wearing a watch but conveying a philosophy of mastery through expression. The shimmer of diamonds mirrored her signature stage dresses, and the precision of the calibre paralleled her technical control. Like the Land-Dweller, Wang’s artistry is not only beautiful but resilient—measured, enduring, and daring. The second chapter of her Rolex story centers on the Oyster Perpetual Lady-Datejust, a model long celebrated as the quintessential Rolex for women of achievement. Available in configurations of Oystersteel, yellow or Everose Rolesor, and often with diamond hour markers or a fluted bezel, it carries the Calibre 2236 movement—another chronometer-certified marvel offering a 55-hour power reserve. Its 28 mm proportions and date display with Cyclops lens make it both elegant and functional. The Lady-Datejust represents grace under discipline: the balance between power and poise that perfectly mirrors Wang’s musical identity.
