The Maison

The House of Rolex

Est. 1905 · Geneva, Switzerland

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.
