Time is changing, what remains unchanged is the most accurate quality
With the pace of time, we entered 2017, the new year Rolex will open a new chapter. No matter how time passes, Rolex's pursuit is always accurate, accurate, and more accurate.
From the moment founder Hans Westdorf founded the company in 1905, he has been nitpicking in his persistent pursuit of precise timing, which is not a small matter. Soon, his pursuit was successful.
A Rolex watch in 1910 was officially certified by Swiss by the Official Watch Rating Centre in Bill, which is the first time that Swiss official awarded such certification for a watch.

1914 In 1914, Rolex Watch won the "A" Class Certificate issued by the British Corresponding Observatory. At that time, the certification was only used to evaluate navigation timers.
1914, the British Kew Observatory A-level precision certificate obtained by Rolex
has only been top-notch for Rolex. Since the late 1950s, Rolex has used the term ‘superlative’ to describe the accuracy of brand watches. At that time, the accuracy of the observatory watches produced by Rolex far exceeded the standard requirements of that era, which made the brand proud.
For so many years, Rolex has never given up on its strict requirements for accuracy. "Precision" has also become synonymous with Rolex watches.
Since 2015, Rolex has further raised its requirements to measure the reliability of watches with stricter standards. This year, this certification standard has been extended to all Rolex watch series. These requirements include the daily error of all movements within -2/+2 seconds.
Just set off in 2017 to open a new chapter. Rolex looks forward to witnessing your life trajectory with you, walking into every new day in your life with you, and accompanying you through different extraordinary moments.
