Performance and prestige. A Rolex is designed and built to last. From the conception of a Rolex watch to the time it leaves the workshop, every step of its development and manufacture follows a single critical requirement: quality. Rolex watches are crafted from the finest raw materials and assembled with scrupulous attention to detail. Every component is designed, developed, and produced to the most exacting standards.
In its perpetual quest for excellence, Rolex constantly enhances the aesthetics and technologies of its emblematic timepieces. They are an invitation to push boundaries, to reach ever higher. With, as always, the same promise of outstanding quality thanks to the Harrods complete, in-house mastery of watchmaking expertise.
