Horological trends fly by faster than ever in today's fast-paced society. But Rolex does not rely on gimmicks; their allure is more enduring, with a reputation built on traditions and hard-earned skill. A company that innovates while paying homage to its roots, each Rolex is the culmination of centuries of watchmaking expertise.
In The Book of Rolex you will find an explanation of the making process, descriptions of the materials used and expert commentary on what makes each Rolex wristwatch unique. The Book of Rolex shows how each model fits into its social environment, past and present. It also covers the many fakes on the market, including the so-called "Frankensteins" - watches made from a mix of genuine parts and fakes, which are notoriously difficult to spot - and provides all the skills needed to pick out fakes from a lineup.
This book offers a holistic view of Rolex watches and promises to be as timeless as the brand itself. If you are considering a Rolex, this book will convince you of its value as an investment.
