7 new Rolex Oyster Perpetual to celebrate a century of iconic watches
Rolex celebrates a century since the creation of the Oyster case, the world’s first hermetic wristwatch case. This revolutionary advance protects against water, dust, and humidity, marking a turning point in the history of watches.
Today, seven new Oyster models debut to honor this legend, combining tradition and technology with designs that seduce both lovers of classics and of the most modern details.
History and innovation behind the Oyster case
Why is the Oyster case an essential benchmark?
The Oyster case is the global pioneer that guaranteed the first total protection against water and dust in wristwatches. This innovation allowed users to trust in resistance and durability, foundations that are essential today in any luxury watch.
What makes the Oyster Perpetual rotor system unique?
The rotor system allows energy to be generated and stored thanks to the natural movements of the wrist. This eliminates the need for manual winding, ensuring constant and reliable operation.

How does the Oyster Perpetual 36 redefine classic design?
This model combines subtlety and modernity with a new Jubilee bracelet design. The repetition of the Rolex logo creates a visual play in 10 shades, bringing a fresh and distinguished touch that appeals to those seeking elegance and originality.
