The Watch
Here we have a 2000 Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date 15200 Blue Arabic which has a curvaceous 34mm 316L stainless steel Oyster case with polished and brushed surfaces, gently sloping lugs elegantly taper to a lug-to-lug length of 42.5mm and a case thickness of 11.5mm ensuring a comfortable fit on your wrist. On the right side, is a signed screw-down crown. A bevelled polished bezel holds a flat scratch-resistant sapphire crystal above a striking sunburst blue dial, an outer minute track with fine applied Arabic 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 and applied rounded baton indexes mark the hours. At 3 o’clock a cyclops magnification above the date window. Broad baton hands have LumiNova infill and are complimented by a tapered sweeping seconds hand. At 12 o’clock we have the Rolex motif “Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date” printed underneath and at 6 o’clock “Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified”. On the reverse, a coin-edged screw-down case back, inside an automatic Rolex calibre 3135, 31 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour, it is fitted with a Parachrom hairspring, making it much more resistant to shocks and temperature variations.

Personal Note
As a proud owner of a 34mm Rolex 6694, I can safely say that for my 7-inch wrist, I find these smaller cases perfect! This 15200 features a wonderful dial that truly stands out and offers something slightly different to the norm we are used to within Rolex. If you are unsure about 34mm for your wrist, book an appointment and come try it on for yourself!

The Brand
In 1905, German-born Hans Wilsdorf and his brother-in-law Alfred Davis set up a company in London that imported Swiss movements which were installed in British cases and sold to jewellers who put their names on the dials. Recognising the potential for their brand, Wilsdorf created the brand name Rolex in 1908. In 1910, a Rolex became the first wristwatch to carry the Swiss Certificate of Chronometric Precision, awarded by the Official Watch Rating Centre in Bienne, Switzerland. Demand for Rolex watches rose swiftly, and British taxes on the Swiss movements Rolex used prompted Wilsdorf to move the business to Geneva, Switzerland, in 1919. With production costs lowered, Wilsdorf quickly set out to solve the age-old problem of moisture and dust entering a watch case and damaging the movement. The Rolex watchmakers came up with a fully sealed watch case, which Wilsdorf named the Oyster, and released to an appreciative audience in 1926. In 1931, Rolex introduced the first automatic winding wristwatch, giving it the legendary name Oyster Perpetual. In 1945, they released the Datejust which was the first watch to have the date jump instantaneously at midnight. The 1950s saw a whole lot of releases such as the Air-King (1958), the Explorer (1953), the Submariner (1953), the GMT Master (1955), the Day-Date (1956), the electromagnetic field resistant Milgauss (1956), the Lady-Datejust (1957) and the first Deep Sea model (1960). Wilsdorf’s death in 1960, saw ownership of Rolex S.A. (a collection of sub-companies) passed to the Hans Wilsdorf Foundation which was founded by Wilsdorf in 1945, the mission of which is simply to sustain Rolex S.A. indefinitely.
