The Book of Rolex

Trends in watchmaking change faster than ever in today’s fast-paced society. Fortunately, Rolex has a timeless appeal, with a reputation built on tradition and experience. Rolex is a company that innovates while paying homage to its roots, and each of its watches is a culmination of centuries of watchmaking knowledge.

In this book, you’ll find explanations of the manufacturing process, descriptions of the materials used, and expert commentary on what makes each Rolex watch unique. The Book of Rolex shows how each model fits into its social environment, present, and past. It also addresses the multitude of fakes on the market, including so-called “Frankensteins”—watches made from a mix of real and fake parts that are notoriously difficult to spot—with a number of tips to help you recognize them.

A holistic look at Rolex watches, this book promises to be as timeless as the brand itself. If you are considering buying a Rolex, this book is almost required reading.
