A symbol of luxury and a tool of power, Rolex has cemented its position as the most coveted and legendary watch brand in the world. Founded in London in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf, the company started life as a timepiece distribution company and in the century since has grown into a world-renowned brand known for its production of technically durable, reliable, and supremely elegant wristwatches. Rolex's journey is charted in Assouline's Rolex The Impossible Collection, a stunning 194-page special edition tome from the publisher's Ultimate Collection featuring an anthology of exceptional Rolex watch models selected by specialist Fabienne Reybaud and accompanied by 200 illustrations. Including a number of watches never seen in print before, such as the first wristwatch dating to the early 1900s and an Explorer worn during Sir Edmund Hillary’s expedition to the summit of Mount Everest in 1953, this exceptional book will impress even the most ardent watch fans and collectors. Supplied with complimentary white gloves and a signature canvas tote bag.
