Beauty, elegance, distinction, photographed at Maxim's, Paru.....her tooth by Flex

Some women stand out, always......... ...not for their beauty, though they may be beautiful: not for their clothes, though these are perfection, but for a certain indefinable air, their statural in- born elegance. When next you try to analyse that quiet distinction-beyond- price, study its elements one by one. Look, for instance, at the watch. You'll find a Rolck watch is the instinctive choice of the world's most elegant women.

They appreciate the design and quality that have made Rolex Swiss- craficit watches famous for over half a century. That's why, whenever a gift - for a celebration, 'or an anniversary, or simply to give pleasure—is in your mind, you'll want to give the one watch she would choose herself-a Rolex. To find out more about the beautifed range of Ladies' Rolex Watches, please write for the illustrated Ròlex Ladies' cotalogus to Rolex of Geneva or gftit your nearest Rolex jeweller.
