The Rolex 1908 is a tribute to the year Hans Wilsdorf registered the Rolex trademark, marking the birth of the brand. Introduced in 2023, the Rolex Perpetual 1908 blends classic elegance with modern watchmaking precision. It replaced the Cellini line as Rolex’s refined dress watch, featuring a slimmer profile, transparent case back, and a new movement—the calibre 7140. Inspired by a 1931 Rolex Oyster Perpetual model, the 1908 retains vintage charm with contemporary updates, including a fluted bezel and refined dial designs. The name “1908” honors Rolex’s heritage while symbolizing a new chapter in its evolution. Crafted in precious metals like 18 ct yellow or white gold, the 1908 reflects Rolex’s commitment to timeless design and mechanical excellence. It stands as a refined choice for connoisseurs who appreciate both tradition and innovation in fine watchmaking. The Rolex 1908 redefines elegance in the brand’s iconic Oyster Perpetual line.
