Why chooseRolex Watch?
It is the most recognizablehigh-endbrand.
Rolex is clearlythe most widely knownamong the world’s high-end watch brand names. You’ve become aware of it even if you’ve never ever heard anything about Omega or Breitling, or perhapsPatek Philippe.
Essentiallythere are two Rolex customergroups– those who understand a lot, and those who knowreallylittle. Connoisseurspurchase Rolex for its extremelyhigh quality.
They might be less thinking aboutincrediblyfine, complexcraftsmanshipin favor of having the very best all-around look foreverydaywear.
Other Rolex customersdon’tknow much about watches, only that Rolex is the best. For them the primaryincentive is this: if you’re going to wear a watch, it’s got to be a Rolex. And this is a hugecompliment for the producer— due to the fact that if even an individual who knows nothing about watches views one specificbrand as “Number One”, the businessis doing something right.
Consistentlevel of quality.
The basis for Rolex’s success is its incrediblyhigh product quality extending over the many years of its existence. Rolex watches show time properlyand are robust, strongand reputable.
Preservingconsistently high quality with approximatedannual production varieties of about three-quarters of a million pieces is an art unto itself. And it’s to Rolex’s benefit to omitunusualcomplications.
It has no tourbillons, perpetualcalendars or minute repeaters– not even movements with a big date display screen, power reserve indicationor alarm function.
The Rolex Cerachrom bezel.
The businessconcentrates onwhat it does best, and enhances the informationongoing. This is true for the movements as well asfor the case. You won’t find a turning bezel that ratchets so easily and smoothly like the one on the Submariner or GMT-Master II from any of its rivals– even other high-end manufacturerswith much morepriceyproducts.
It’s got everything a watch requires.
The significance of the Rolex name is connected to the truth that the brandpresentedinnovativefunctionsrather early on which have made the watch appropriate for everyday wear. In 1914 Rolex founderHans Wilsdorf submitted a wristwatchmovement to the distinguishedKew-Teddington observatory for chronometer accreditation.
The COSC-certified Caliber 4130 that powers the Daytona.
Today the chronometer test (currentlyconducted by the Swiss institute COSC) has actually ended up being a standard for in-house mechanical Rolex calibers. In 1927 the first water-resistantwristwatch was presented and the automaticwinding mechanismfollowed a couple of years later– due to the fact that to ensurethe water-resistance of a watch, it shouldn’t be requiredto pull the crown every day.
The very first Oyster case in 1927 and very first Oyster Perpetual in 1945.
These twofeatures are shown in the product name “Oyster Perpetual”, which decoratespracticallyevery Rolex. The Datejust, presented in 1945, was the very first watch to combine all threefeatures– automaticwinding, water-resistant case and chronometer certificate. Together with its name date window, it has all the essentials.
Quicklyrecognizablestyle, Rolex Lady-datejust.
The dailywearability of a watch is a function of its style. The round shape of a Rolex adds to its water-resistance and its exceptionallegibility. Contribute to this a central sweep seconds hand and Cyclops date magnifier (another Hans Wilsdorf development).
Existing collections are maintainedand constantlyenhanced throughout the years. This is supported by Rolex expertPercy Christian Schoeler, creator of the German-language webwebsites Luxify and R-L-X-Forum: “Only verymindfuladjustmentsto the renownedstyle of privatemodel collections over the decadeshaveresulted in a high degree of recognition.”.
Rolex designshave actuallyonly seen incremental modifications over the years.
It’s why it is constantlysimple to acknowledge a Rolex from a distance. WatchexpertGisbert L. Brunner calls this the “10-meter guideline“– and it’s not simply the professionalswho acknowledgethem.
Keeps its worth.
This fact is real to a lower levelfor watches– other than for Rolex. For the high-demand sport designs in stainless steel at least (though this is a stickier scenariofor gold Oyster models and the stylishgold Cellini watches) it’s possible to get simplya little less, or perhaps even more, than the original purchase price.
