Bold origins
In 1908, the Rolex brand was created in a bold move, that of Hans Wilsdorf, who completely transformed the history of watchmaking with his innovative vision for a precise and reliable wristwatch. This quest for excellence continues today, helping to improve the superlative performance of Rolex watches. Building on these technological advances, the 1908 upholds the aesthetic boldness of its origins. Through this timepiece, the Manufacture rises to the challenge of slenderness. The ultimate harmonious watch, the 1908 and its 18 kt gold case pave the way for a watchmaking future where delicacy and performance go hand in hand.
