The science of precision has inspired the creation of Rolex chronometers for five generations – precision that is founded in a scientific understanding of time and materials, their origins and interaction with one another.

Rolex supports individuals and organizations working across the sciences, believing that no challenge is so great that human wisdom, ingenuity, determination and skill cannot overcome it.
