[Explorer I & II]

The Explorer, popular as an entry-level watch, is a timepiece with a universal and refined design. Its versatility goes without saying, and having one is sure to be a strong partner. The Explorer II is a higher-end model, but both are very popular. It is a sports model that can also be used in business situations.

Cosmograph Daytona

It is no exaggeration to say that the Cosmograph Daytona is the most popular Rolex model. It was born in 1963 and was designed to meet the needs of professional race car drivers. The Cosmograph Daytona is the only Rolex model equipped with a chronograph and is loved both domestically and internationally as a model full of sporty taste.

"Milgauss"

The Milgauss boasts high magnetic resistance. It features designs and materials that are only used in the Milgauss, such as the lightning needle and blue sapphire crystal. Considering the characteristics of the model, its magnetic resistance makes it seem like it is aimed at IT and engineering professions, but for modern businessmen, a PC is a necessity. This model is a strong ally for working people.

"GMT-Master I & II"

The GMT Master is equipped with a movement that allows the hour hand to be operated independently, and has the ability to keep track of the time in three different countries. In addition to the black bezel, the three bezel color patterns also include the red and blue "Pepsi color" and the blue and black bezel called "Batman." The vibrant bezel color has also become a popular fashion icon.

"Air King"

The Air-King is a beloved model with a pet name, equipped with the essential features of a pilot watch, high visibility and functionality. It was originally created as a dress watch, but production was discontinued in 2014. It was then revived in 2016 as a collection that strongly reflects a sports taste. As the model name suggests, it would not be strange to call the Air-King a pilot watch.

2. Dress Watch

Dress watches are indispensable for formal occasions. The following four models are Rolex 's simple, elegant and luxurious dress watches. They are perfect for suits, as well as for creating a dressy adult look.

"Cherini Prince"

The Cellini Collection was created after being inspired by the work of Italian Renaissance goldsmith Benvenuto Cellini. It is a Rolex dress watch that combines classicism and elegance. The Prince, which is no longer in production, was famous as a doctor's watch and was the first Rolex watch to feature a see-through case back and a rectangular non-oyster case, making it a hot topic at the time.

『Datejust』

The Datejust combines timeless design and functionality. It was born as the first self-winding waterproof chronometer with a date display in a small window at the 3 o'clock position on the dial. Due to its minimalist design, it is a core model of Rolex that is loved by a wide range of people regardless of the occasion.

"Day Date" The Day-Date is the highest-end Rolex model, available only in rare materials such as gold and platinum. Its greatest features, the day of the week display at the 12 o'clock position and the President bracelet, are symbols unique to high-end models. Its elegant design is considered a coveted model by Rolex enthusiasts .

"Sky-Dweller"

The elegant Sky-Dweller model is aimed at frequent travelers. It features an annual calendar and dual time display. For travel, we recommend an outdoor style that emphasizes functionality. This model is perfect for such an outdoor style and a watch that will elegantly bring out the travel mood.

3. Dresspo Watch

The last category we will introduce is the "Dresspo Watch", which combines the tastes of both "Dress Watch" and "Sports Watch". Models that take the best of both worlds can be said to be "delicious" models from a fashion perspective. Pay attention to the playful design.

"Turn-O-Graph (Datejust)"

The Turn-O-Graph features a beautiful fluted bezel and Arabic numerals and bars printed at 5-minute intervals. The red accents of the "TURN-O-GRAPH" at 6 o'clock on the dial, the second hand, and the calendar display give this model a sporty look.

"Thunderbird (Datejust)"

The special edition "Thunderbird" is equipped with a rotating bezel. It is a derivative model of the "Datejust", but its origins lie in the fact that it was specially ordered as a retirement commemoration model for Colonel Don Ferris, commander of the U.S. Air Force acrobatic team "Thunderbirds".

It is still affectionately known as the "Thunderbird" today, in tribute to the unique story behind its creation. In addition to the base "Datejust", it is equipped with a rotating bezel used in sports watches, giving it a sporty nuance, and is therefore called a "dress sport watch", which is neither dress nor sports.
