II · The line

Oyster Perpetual

Oyster Perpetual brings together two milestones in Rolex history: the Oyster case of 1926 and the Perpetual self-winding rotor of 1931. Those two ideas explain the collection’s name and its emphasis on straightforward timekeeping.

III · The manufacture

Rolex since 1905

Hans Wilsdorf founded the business that became Rolex in London in 1905. He registered the Rolex name in 1908. A Rolex wristwatch received a Swiss chronometric precision certificate in Bienne in 1910. The Oyster wristwatch introduced in 1926 made water resistance central to the brand’s development. Rolex patented its Perpetual rotor winding system in 1931. Wilsdorf created the foundation bearing his name in Geneva in 1945. The Cosmograph chronograph arrived in 1963 and became associated with Daytona motor racing. Fondation Hans Wilsdorf owns the Rolex group today. Rolex operates as an integrated Swiss manufacturer based in Geneva, making essential watch components in-house.
