Rolex Oyster Perpetual – Precision since 1927

Not without reason, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual is the preferred choice of Formula One drivers as this wristwatch is the epitome of sporty elegance. It is known for its classic design as well as precision and reliability - even in extreme situations. The Oyster Perpetual was one of the first watches waterproof to 100 metres. It became world-famous when British swimmer Mercedes Gleitze swam the Channel in 1927 - with a Rolex Oyster on her wrist.

Precision and aesthetics down to the last detail: waterproofness, Oyster bracelet and more

Loading...

Every Rolex model is outfitted with some special features that make it special.

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual was the first watch on the market that was waterproof to 100 metres. This feature was kept until today. Apart from that, all watches of this collection are equipped with Perpetual movements with self-winding mechanisms. The use of stainless steel for the case makes the Rolex Oyster Perpetual a robust companion for sports activities. Another special feature is the bracelet of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual. It is a bracelet that was introduced in the late 1930s and offers an ideal combination of aesthetics and function.

An overview of the Oyster Perpetual models

The models of the Oyster Perpetual collection by Rolex have maintained the classic aesthetics of original Rolex watches and enjoy a high recognition value. Classic elegance is combined with unrivalled watchmaking precision. The appealing stainless steel case, the reliable Perpetual movement with a self-winding mechanism, and the precision of a Swiss chronometer meeting the highest standards satisfy all customers who value elegant high-quality workmanship on the one hand and excellent as well as reliable function on the other hand. Even the watch face is manufactured entirely by Rolex and is distinguished for its unique workmanship. The special Oyster bracelet is both robust and comfortable while also being easy on the eye. Within the Oyster Perpetual line, numerous different models can be found. Which one gets chosen in the end is entirely up the the customer as it is dependent on individual taste and personal preferences.

Lady Oyster Perpetual (reference 176200)

For ladies, too, Rolex offers a broad choice of different watches - including the Lady Oyster Perpetual, available in different designs, depending on individual preferences for materials and shapes. Stainless steel, Everose gold, white gold, yellow gold, material mixes, with or without diamonds - the Lady Oyster Perpetual by Rolex can be adjusted to match personal preferences and wishes.

Oyster Perpetual 31 mm (reference 177200)

31 millimetres in diameter, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 31 is smaller and more delicate than the standard model. Usually, the Oyster Perpetual has a diameter of 40 millimetres; but those who desire to wear a more exquisite watch on their wrist are well-advised to choose the Oyster Perpetual 31 mm.

Air-King (reference 114200)

The Rolex Air-King was originally designed for pilots. Today, the diameter of 34 millimetres is rather small and delicate - but when it was developed in the time after World War II, the watch was unusually big. Even during the war, Rolex put some bigger watches on the market that had the advantage that pilots could read the time more easily. Still today, the Air-King is an particularly popular Rolex watch and owing to the comparatively small price it is also a suitable entry-level model.

Oyster Perpetual Date (reference 115200)

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date is the ideal wristwatch for all those who want to be able to not only read the time but also the date with just a glance at their wrist. This model of the Oyster Perpetual line also stands out due to its reliable Oyster case, the precise Rolex movement as well as the characteristic Oyster bracelet.

What celebs wear the watch?

Rolex watches have always enjoyed great popularity among stars and celebrities. The same holds true for the Rolex Oyster Perpetual. Academy Award-winning actress Halle Berry wears the Oyster Perpetual Datejust II. The Oyster Perpetual Datejust was also worn by Lindsey Vonn during Fashion Week. Cindy Crawford was seen with the Oyster Perpetual Submariner.

The price of this wristwatch

In some respects, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual is more sporty than most other Rolex watches. For instance, stainless steel is often used instead of gold, platinum or other precious metals. For many Oyster models, this results in cheaper prices compared to other Rolex watches - e.g. the Rolex Air-King. Thus the Oyster Perpetual collection offers some interesting beginners’ models.

New and used Rolex Oyster Perpetual watch models

For all its outstanding design and performance, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual line is surprisingly affordable compared to some other luxury watches. The list price is usually less than £4,450, and you can expect to pay much less when you buy a pre-owned Rolex Oyster Perpetual watch from CHRONEXT. The Oyster Perpetual range thus provides the perfect introduction to Rolex, offering a varied selection of entry-level and used models.
