The Rolex Perpetual 1908 is a true reflection of Rolex's spirit of perfection.

Rolex new Perpetual collection is first launched with a watch called Perpetual 1908. The name pays tribute to the year when Hans Wilsdorf came up with the name 'Rolex' to sign his creations and registered the brand in Switzerland. It draws inspiration from one of the first Rolex watches equipped with the Perpetual rotor. This new collection pays homage to traditional watchmaking style while incorporating Rolex's expertise and aesthetic heritage. The design of the 1908 is characterized by its simplicity, which highlights the watch's unique identity. It perfectly embodies the essence of the Perpetual collection, which celebrates the art of watchmaking in its purest form.
Boasting a 39mm case made of yellow or white gold with sleek lines, its see-through case back allows the intricate details of the movement to be admired. The lugs have a gentle chamfering on their top edges, which enhances the curve of the watch. The bezel is split into two parts, with the lower part having a refined fluting, and the upper part is domed. Both the domed crystal and the transparent case back have an anti-reflective coating to allow for clear legibility.

Rolex&rsquo;s manufacture Calibre 7140 is an exceptional movement that offers several technical innovations that contribute to its high precision and reliability. The Chronergy escapement, for example, combines high energy efficiency with great dependability, making it resistant to strong magnetic fields. Additionally, the patented Syloxi hairspring ensures the regularity of the calibre's movement in any position, thanks to its unique geometry. The Paraflex shock absorbers are designed to increase the movement's shock resistance, while the oscillating weight is made of yellow gold and fitted with an optimized ball bearing. This self-winding system and the barrel architecture ensure a power reserve of approximately 66 hours.
Overall, the Perpetual 1908 is a masterful timepiece that combines classic design with cutting-edge technology and precision. As a member of the Perpetual collection, it represents the pinnacle of Rolex's watchmaking expertise and is a worthy addition to any watch enthusiast's collection.
