a Rolex can, and will, last a life- Lime--and a lifetime after that. But the excellence of the manufacture can claim only part of the kudos; much is owed, in a waterproof Rolex, to The Oyster case. Designed by Rolex especially to protect a Rolex movement, the Oystce case was, and still is, the fore- most waterproof case in the world.
Kudos, too, to the self-wind- ing mechanism in the Rolex Oyster Perpetual. The even tension on the automatically wound mainspring helps to maintain the split-second ac- curacy that makes a Role- any Rolex-the purchase of a lifetime, for a lifetime.
