Day-Date RBR vs TBR
On a Rolex Day-Date, the abbreviations RBR and TBR refer to diamond bezel configurations. RBR stands for Rolex Brilliant-Set Bezel with Diamonds, meaning the bezel is set with round brilliant-cut diamonds. TBR stands for Trapeze-Set Bezel with Diamonds, where the bezel is fitted with trapeze or baguette-cut diamonds precisely shaped to circle the bezel. Both indicate factory-set Rolex bezels, showcasing the brand’s highest level of gem-setting craftsmanship.
The cost of a diamond bezel Day-Date in our store ranges from $ to $ depending on the condition of the timepiece.
