Rolex Watch Repair and Rolex Service, New York, NY

Hans Wilsdorf founded the company we now know as Rolex in 1905. Born in Kulmbach, Germany in 1881, the company, Wilsdorf & Davies, was based in London. By 1908 it had become one of the leading watch companies in the UK. It was in this year that he coined the name Rolex.

1931 saw the creation of the Perpetual Rotor, a mechanism now seen as the basis for self-winding movements. In the following years Rolex released the first Oyster Perpetual Ladydate (1954) the GMT Master with dual time zone function (1955) and the first Day-Date (1956).

Andre Heiniger took over the company following the death of Hans Wildorf on 06 July 1960. Rolex continued to invent and innovate in terms of technical skill and style throughout the 2nd half of the century. The Sea-dweller (1967) was certified as reaching depths of up to 1,220 meters making it the choice for Professional Divers – a point that was quickly adopted in advertising the model. The Explorer II (1978) and Cosmograph Daytona (1988) were also released to international waiting lists securing Rolex as one of the worlds most prestigious watch brands.

Factoid about Rolex

The company was renamed Rolex Watch Co. Ltd. in 1915, probably because the name Wilsdorf was provoking anti-German prejudice in Great Britain during World War I. Rolex opened a Geneva office in 1919 and soon afterward moved headquarters to Switzerland and adopted the French-language corporate name of Montres Rolex SA. Rolex registered the five-spiked crown as its trademark in 1925, while steadily improving its products. In 1926 the company introduced the waterproof and airtight Oyster model. The Oyster Perpetual, said to be the first self-winding wristwatch, followed five years later. In 1956 Rolex introduced the Milgauss, a watch especially resistant to magnetization, a phenomenon that can reduce accuracy. The company also carried a less-expensive line of watches called Tudor, which it had introduced in 1952.
