Previous designs by other manufacturers had proven to be too awkward, too clumsy, or just plain unreliable. In 1931, the self-winding Rolex Perpetual movement was patented, a simple yet ingenious design that continues to power every automatic watch to this day. The publicity that followed launched Rolex watches to dizzying heights. As Mercedes emerged from the freezing waters, so too did the Rolex Oyster, and in perfect working order. With new features such as a screw-down crown and a precision milled crystal, it pioneered the modern diving watch. The advancements continued, as in 1927, Mercedes Gleitze swam the English Channel wearing the world?s first waterproof watch, the Rolex Oyster. Then, four years later, it was awarded a class ?A? precision certificate from Kew Observatory, an award that was previously reserved only for marine chronometers. Rolex?s fastidious nature to perform better than its competitors started in 1910, when one of its watches became the first ever to receive the Swiss Certificate of Precision. Where precision and robustness are required, you need look no further than Rolex. With the Rolex Deepsea Special plumbing the depths of the Mariana Trench, the Rolex Explorer climbing through the thin atmosphere of Mount Everest?s peak, and the Rolex GMT-Master floating in the zero gravity of space, Rolex watches have been in just about every hostile environment imaginable. The level of recognition Rolex watches get is not earned overnight?it is the product of over a century of dedication and skill.įormed in London in 1905 by watchmaker Hans Wilsdorf, Rolex watches have since scaled not only the ever-growing peaks of technological advancement, but also peaks of a much more geological nature, too.
