This compact leather-bound Rolex book tells the story of one of the most recognisable names in watchmaking, from its founding in 1905 to the models that made the brand a benchmark for luxury tool watches.

The book covers key Rolex designs including the Oyster, Explorer, Daytona, and Submariner, placing them within the wider history of the company’s technical development and cultural status.

Written by Josh Sims, it combines clear, authoritative text with strong watch imagery, making it useful for both casual admirers and more committed Rolex fans.

The focus is on the watches themselves, but also on why the brand has remained so enduring: practical innovation, recognisable design, and a consistent sense of identity.

This edition is bound in emerald bonded leather by Graphic Image, the American leather goods company founded by Bennett Glazer in 1977, with more than 45 years of bookbinding and leather manufacturing behind it.

The leather binding gives the small-format book a more substantial, gift-ready feel than a standard watch title, making it well suited to a desk, bedside table, or collector’s shelf.
