Presenting the revolutionary Oyster to retailers, Hans Wilsdorf proclaimed: "Gentlemen, we make the best wristwatch in the world."
His statement resonates to this day as Rolex celebrates 100 years of its waterproof wristwatch with four Oyster Perpetual models, covered by an enhanced Superlative Chronometer certification.
Firstly, the Oyster Perpetual 41 features the number 100 in relief on the winding crown and the inscription "100 years", replacing "Swiss Made", on the slate dial. The pad-printed "Rolex" as well as squares on the minute track are in the emblematic green colour.
