The perfect entry into the world of Rolex watches, this Rolex Oyster Perpetual Ref. 1018 has everything a Rolex should; timeless design, robust construction and accurate time keeping.

The direct descendant of the original Rolex waterproof watch; the Rolex Oyster which launched in 1929, the Oyster Perpetual waslaunched in 1931 to coincide with Rolexs new patented Perpetual self-winding rotor system.

Over the years the Oyster Perpetual sported numerous dial, bezel and case designs including the highly collectable enamel dials of the 1950s. But we still have a soft spot for the paired back, timeless design of references such as this ref. 1018. It's elegant without being flashy and robust enough to use as a daily wearer.
