The watch book of 2026 is on its way!
The most awaited watch book of the year is
definitely on its way! Rolex 1961-2025 will be available at physical and online bookshops at the beginning of March. This link brings you to the dedicated page at amazon, where you can pre-order the book.
While waiting, take a look at a few pictures and a mini-video clip taken at the Fontana printing house (Lugano,
Switzerland), as a 20-meter long offset press turns the PDF file into thousands
of matt coated pages. The latter will then be folded and hardbound.
Wish to learn more about Rolex 1961-2025? Here are an excerpt from
the introduction, some pages and the book’s specs.
"(...) Most of the book
replicates the formula of Rolex 1905-1960. Each chapter on the
decades from 1961 to 2000 opens with a chronology of significant events and a
table of movements developed during the period. This is followed by a gallery
of timepieces, accompanied by photographs, texts illustrating their genesis,
and technical data sheets. A wide selection of annotated advertisements allows
readers to follow the evolution of the brand from an image perspective.
Technical innovation receives the attention it deserves through a review of
patents. The final sections present documents ranging from the company's
publications to articles in the specialist press.
The years from 2001 to 2025
are treated differently. After the dates and movements, the reader finds
a comprehensive narrative that includes all the subjects analyzed
separately in the
previous chapters. (...)"
