2. Key Brand Information

Established in 1905, Rolex has consistently set benchmarks in the watchmaking industry. The Datejust, introduced in 1945, was the first self-winding chronometer wristwatch to display the date in a window on the dial, marking a significant innovation in horology. The 1959 Reference 6605 exemplifies Rolex's dedication to blending functionality with timeless design, making it a coveted piece among collectors and enthusiasts.
