The House of Rolex

Rolex set the terms of the modern wristwatch. The Oyster case of 1926 made it the first waterproof watch; the Perpetual rotor of 1931 made it self-winding. A century on, every reference is a certified chronometer — and the most recognised object in watchmaking.

The Datejust

The Datejust, from 1945, was the first self-winding chronometer to show the date in a window. Its proportions, fluted bezel and Cyclops lens have been refined but never replaced — the most versatile watch Rolex makes.
