However, renowned artist Olaolu Slawn has recently introduced a new custom Rolex Datejust model, once again capturing the attention of collectors.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-287333408\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-987538313\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<p>The Rolex Datejust timepiece, personally designed by Olaolu Slawn, features a striking dial design. Slawn has replaced the traditional hour markers with his signature bold graffiti patterns, bestowing the Rolex with a unique personality and style. Additionally, the vibrant red, orange, and blue hues contrast sharply with the silver bezel and bracelet, adding significant visual impact.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1259435345\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-955621526\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_14010419\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/goodwatchhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/6HtVvu9qK8HvzUivkaVBPuUVT6rWuI6N4RvfeeEb33k.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Olaolu Slawn - A new custom Rolex Datejust\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodwatchhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/6HtVvu9qK8HvzUivkaVBPuUVT6rWuI6N4RvfeeEb33k.png 480w, https:\/\/goodwatchhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/6HtVvu9qK8HvzUivkaVBPuUVT6rWuI6N4RvfeeEb33k-320x400.png 320w, https:\/\/goodwatchhk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/6HtVvu9qK8HvzUivkaVBPuUVT6rWuI6N4RvfeeEb33k-247x309.png 247w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_14010419 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n<h3>Sold out entirely within five minutes<\/h3>\n<p>This custom Rolex is released in a limited quantity, priced at HKD 151,028, and sold out entirely within five minutes.
