This newly published hardback book has been written by Gisbert L. Brunner a watch journalist and author who has written over 15 books on the subject of wristwatches. This Rolex book is written in three languages (English, French and German) and is broadly laid out in chronological order. It starts with a biography of Hans Wilsdorf, the co-founder of the brand along with Alfred Davis, and this in turn becomes a history of the brand with the name Rolex first appearing in 1908. The book then focusses on the milestone watches that they have developed from early (c. 1915) silver cased watches with enamel dials to the development of the Oyster case in 1926, the iconic rectangular cased Rolex Prince in 1928 and then continues apace through Cosmographs, Submariners, the Milgauss and more up to the updates Air King of 2016. A separate chapter then focuses on the manufacture process of Rolex with description and images of their factory in Bienne and the offices in Geneva. The book is covered in
