ROLEX AND ROB. ENGSTRÖM
The partnership between Rolex and Rob. Engström has become stronger since Rob. Engström became an official Rolex dealer. We are proud to be one of the few official Rolex dealers in Sweden.
Rolex’s history dates back to the early 20th century. At a time when pocket watches were the order of the day, Rolex’s founder Hans Wilsdorf understood the potential of the wristwatch, he foresaw that it was intended to be an everyday object provided he could prove that it was an accurate, waterproof, robust, and reliable instrument. As early as 1910, a Rolex watch was manufactured as the first wristwatch to certify for chronometric precision. In 1926, Hans Wilsdorf’s efforts to achieve water tightness proved successful with the unveiling of the Oyster, the first waterproof wristwatch in the world. Thanks to an ingenious patented system consisting of a screwable frame, casing on the back, and winding crown, the casing is hermetically sealed, which provides optimal protection for the movement of the watch. The eternal rotor, developed and patented by Rolex in 1931, has shaped the history of the modern watchmaker. By capturing the energy generated by even the slightest movement of the wrist, this self-winding system breathes life into the movement.
Rolex is also associated with exceptional personalities whose achievements testify to the excellent quality of Rolex watches. The brand is actively involved in supporting art and culture, sports, and exploration, as well as those who are thinking of solutions to preserve the planet.
