Rolex Hosts Oscar Greenroom
Rolex once again welcomed Hollywood’s elite to its curated antechamber at the 96th Academy Awards ceremony in Hollywood’s Dolby Theater. A longtime sponsor of the Oscars’ ceremony, Rolex’s Greenroom was an immersive experience designed with original decor and furnishings where nominees and presenters gather before and after stepping onto the stage. This year saw the design of the Greenroom shine a spotlight on the vegetal world.
The Greenroom pushed the element of “green” to the forefront with a representation of a delicate vegetal environment, using the image of fans as inspiration. The Greenroom’s concept integrates essential elements from nature like organic structures and chlorophyll to celebrate the harmony of lush flora through the lens of the chromatic universe.

The Greenroom also displayed the Oyster Perpetual Day-Date 40 in 18 ct Everose gold with a slate ombré dial. Rolex shares, “The shapes within this vegetal universe recall details such as the fluting on watch bezels and the brushed metal surfaces of watch dials, transmitting their luminous vibrations. A watch of great prestige, the Day-Date has only ever been made from precious metals and is instantly recognisable, partially thanks to its emblematic President bracelet.”
