Have you ever noticed the clocks on the green courts at Wimbledon?
The elegant timepieces only add to the glitz and glamour of the exclusive tennis tournament. The golden rimmed clocks ooze a sense of timeless charm and add to the royal aesthetics of the competition. Wimbledon is a competition of champions and champions deserve the best. The best, in this case, is offered by Rolex. Rolex not only offers a premium set of watches that are revered all around the globe, but they also add to the allure at the lush green courts at Wimbledon with their clocks.
Rolex, a name synonymous with luxury and precision in watchmaking, was founded in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf and his brother-in-law, Alfred Davis, originally under the name “Wilsdorf and Davis” in London, England. Their primary business at the time was importing Hermann Aegler’s Swiss movements to England and placing them in quality watch cases made by Dennison and others. These early watches were then sold to jewelers, who would put their own names on the dial. In 1908, Wilsdorf registered the trademark “Rolex” and opened an office in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. The name “Rolex” was chosen for its easy pronunciation in any language and its short, elegant sound that fit well on watch dials.
So What is a Rolex Wall Clock?
What Does Owning a Rolex Entail?
Rolex has the ability to get recognized anywhere, its unique symbol is a quick identifier, to say the least. Rolex achieved a tremendous scale of global recognition through continued success and consistency of quality in every product designed by them.
Rolex comes with a guarantee of state-of-the-art technology and design. No expenses are spared and no compromises are made. They are meticulously crafted by experts and each piece is scrutinized meticulously for flaws before it reaches the buyer.
Rolex was the first brand to pass the COSC, the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute. Each model produced by Rolex has a unique set of characteristics and features. But more than that, owning a Rolex is about the feeling of success which is why every successful person wishes to have a Rolex in their possession.
Rolex is Synonymous with Success
Rolex has been unrivaled with its premium watches. They have been touted as the leading watchmakers in the market for a long time and this doesn’t look like it’s going to change anytime soon.
Now, Rolex has not yet ventured into the market of wall clocks fully. They produce rare wall clocks which are considered collector’s items among chronometer enthusiasts. The wall clocks designed by them are required to meet the high standards that their watches have set since 1905.
At the moment, Rolex authorizes third party vendors to create wall clocks which frequently feature at airports, exclusive sports tournaments such as The Wimbledon Championships, and places of historical importance. A Rolex wall clock timepiece is not just a purchase but a symbol of the owner’s success and stature in life.
For the longest time, Rolex focused on doling out their best in watches but now they are putting the same precision, quality, and elegance into their wall clocks which were generally not for sale on previous occasions.
At the end of the day, it does not matter whether it’s a watch or a clock, there is a certain promise of quality that is associated with Rolex and its products. They never compromise with whatever they are venturing into. They always bring their best to the table and deliver a product that not only provides functionality but also compliments the stature of the man buying it.
Rolex has been redefining the way we see and perceive time. They have been the epitome of excellence and are constantly on the quest for another level of brilliance that they are seeking to uncover. They are the thought leaders when it comes to the discovery of original approaches and innovative solutions.
Conclusion
Rolex is a story that began in England with Hans Wilsdorf building the first waterproof watch called the Oyster and has evolved into a multi-billion-dollar company today. They have reached the highest of peaks and the deepest parts of the ocean on the wrists of pioneers, artists, athletes, and visionaries. Rolex has become more than just watchmakers; it has become the most easily recognizable brand for people around the globe.
