To ensure their precision and reliability, Rolex subjects every watch that leaves its workshops to a series of particularly demanding tests. When you purchase a Rolex watch, the authorized retailer will complete the Rolex warranty card and enter the date on it, certifying the authenticity of your watch.
All Rolex models come with a five-year warranty and are certified as a Superlative Chronometer, a status symbolized by a green seal. This exclusive designation attests that the watch has successfully undergone a series of specific final inspections conducted by Rolex in its own laboratories and according to its own criteria, in addition to the official COSC certification of its movement.
Each Rolex watch is presented in a magnificent green box, protecting and guarding the treasure it contains. The box also symbolizes the act of giving. If you're giving a watch, it's important that the recipient's first contact with their Rolex sets the tone for what lies within.

Bright blue dial
The sunray finish creates delicate light reflections on many dials in the Oyster Perpetual collection. It is obtained using masterful brushing techniques that create grooves running outwards from the center of the dial. Light is diffused consistently along each engraving, creating a characteristic subtle glow that moves depending on the position of the wrist. Once the sunray finish has been completed, the dial color is applied using Physical Vapor Deposition or electroplating. A light coat of varnish gives the dial its final look.
Oystersteel
Rolex uses Oystersteel for its steel watch cases. Specially developed by the brand, Oystersteel belongs to the 904L steel family, alloys most commonly used in high-technology and in the aerospace and chemical industries, where maximum resistance to corrosion is essential. Oystersteel is extremely resistant, offers an exceptional finish once polished and maintains its beauty even in the harshest environments.
The Jubilee bracelet
The design, development and production of Rolex bracelets and clasps, as well as the stringent tests they face, involve advanced high technology. And, as with all the components of the watch, aesthetic controls by the human eye guarantee impeccable beauty. The Jubilee, a supple and comfortable five-piece link metal bracelet, was designed and made especially for the launch of the Oyster Perpetual Date just in 1945.
Model Availability
All Rolex watches are hand-assembled with the utmost care to meet the brand's high quality standards. Such high standards naturally restrict Rolex's production capacity.
Therefore, the availability of certain Rolex models may be limited. New Rolex watches are available exclusively from official Rolex retailers, who receive regular deliveries and independently manage the allocation of watches to customers.
Godechot Pauliet is honored to be part of the worldwide network of Official Rolex Retailers and can provide information on the availability of different models.
