The Racers Watch

Cosmograph Daytona

The Rolex Chronograph, called Cosmograph Daytona, is the ultimate functional watch for racing and speed enthusiasts. Introduced in 1963, the Cosmograph was designed to meet the needs of professional racing drivers. It takes its name from the famous high-speed circuit Daytona Beach.

Platinum

Rare and especially valuable Platinum is seen as the noblest of all precious metals. With its powerful pale silver sheen, it has become by far the most prestigious metal. Rolex uses platinum 950, an alloy of 95% platinum and ruthenium, to combine durability and the legendary platinum shine.

Brandstory

Rolex

Founded in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf, Rolex is now the world's best-selling watch manufacturer. At a time when wristwatches were only worn by women as jewellery, Rolex established the history of the men's wristwatch by succeeding in building a wristwatch robust enough for everyday use. Today, Rolex is still the industry leader in the field of durable everyday watches and founded the concept of the Toolwatch. From the depths of the oceans to the heights of aviation, Rolex's professional models are valued by professionals and today enjoy exceptionally high collector's values.

Rocket Science

For a brief moment, I seriously considered starting this short article with a scientific treatise on the production of carbon fibers. However, given my rather limited abilities in the natural sciences during my school days, I immediately abandoned this idea and instead turned my attention to the things that move us all on a daily basis. Watches.

The return of the 80s

Everything comes back. At some point. Even my grandmother knew that and the more mature you become, the more you realise: damn, it really is like that. When Rolex presented the GMT-Master II as a yellow gold and bicolour version on a Jubilé bracelet last year, I immediately felt something like my own personal Werthers Echte moment. Only not with gold-wrapped caramel sweets, but with the watches I knew from my childhood. And so I still remember, as if it were yesterday, the picture of TV legend Horst Tappert smiling at me from the cover of a TV magazine with a gold GMT on a Jubilee bracelet.
