To guarantee their precision and reliability, Rolex subjects all watches leaving its workshops to a series of particularly demanding tests. When you purchase a Rolex watch, the authorized retailer completes the Rolex warranty card and enters the date certifying the authenticity of your watch.
All Rolex models come with a five-year warranty and are certified as Superlative Chronometers, a status symbolized by a green seal. This exclusive title attests that the watch has successfully undergone a series of specific final checks carried out 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 case, protective and guardian of the treasure it contains. The case also symbolizes the act of giving. If you are giving a watch as a gift, it is important that the recipient's first contact with their Rolex sets the tone for what lies within.

Bidirectional Rotatable Bezel
The Yacht-Master's bidirectional rotatable 60-minute graduated bezel is made entirely from precious metals or fitted with a Cerachrom insert in high-tech ceramic. The raised polished numerals and graduations stand out clearly against a matt, sand-blasted background. This functional bezel – which allows the wearer to calculate, for example, the sailing time between two buoys – is also a key component in the model's distinctive visual identity.
Intense black dial
Like all Rolex Professional watches, the Yacht-Master 40 offers exceptional legibility in all circumstances, and especially in the dark, thanks to its Chromalight display. The broad hands and hour markers in simple shapes – triangles, circles, rectangles – are filled with a luminescent material emitting a long-lasting glow.
Everose Rolesor
Gold is coveted for its luster and nobility. Steel reinforces strength and reliability. Together, they harmoniously combine the best of their properties. A true Rolex signature, Rolesor has featured on Rolex models since the early 1930s, and was trademarked as a name in 1933. It is one of the prominent pillars of the Oyster Perpetual collection.
Model Availability
All Rolex watches are hand-assembled with meticulous care to meet the brand's exacting quality standards. Such high standards naturally limit Rolex's production capacity.
This is why the availability of certain Rolex models may be limited. New Rolex watches are available exclusively from official retailers, who receive regular deliveries and independently manage the allocation of watches to their customers.
Godechot Pauliet is honored to be part of the worldwide network of official Rolex retailers and can inform you about the availability of different models.
