French for, "(One) Thousand Gauss(e)," the piece is of course defined by its scientific and engineering roots. Rolex's most innovative piece, its archetype bounds the very frontier of that experimental excellence that has raised the Crown beyond its well-deserved fame for its workmanship, precision, and horological-technical ability - into that sought after status of being the Golden Standard. Compromise isn't even in the vocabulary.
Something is special about this one, and the logo is the least of it. A striking orange lightning bolt seconds hand confirms your suspicions. This is no ordinary Rolex, and I think you'd be hard pressed to find a specimen that's been bejewelled and dazzled. It's a statement in and of itself, and manages to do it so remarkably that it would be difficult to persuade yourself that it was anything but short for perfect in expressing it.
The spirit of human ingenuity in innovation is what has provided us such marvels that have enabled us to enjoy such precious things. So doesn't it make sense that Rolex would give back to that community that best embodies the spirit of that progress that brought us here?
And what a wonderful thank you they have provided for the innovators, the pioneers, the geniuses in us.
It was actually first introduced in 1956, in order to meet the demands of scientists and engineers whose workplaces were often teeming with electromagnetic radiation. This piece was introduced in 2007 and so has been developed over many generations, keeping that same DNA and raison-d'être in the design language.
Inside is a Faraday Cage-protected 3131 self-winding calibre, touting a plentiful 48-hour power reserve and water resistance to 100m. The Faraday cage of course shields the movement from electromagnetic interference, meaning that this is one of those most robust pieces that you can acquire from the champion of durability, Rolex.
Symbolising the spirit of human ingenuity, an emblem of luxury, and a superb example of functionality - it is a spectacular choice for the professional imaginator, the ones who truly believe in the power of thought.
A well-loved piece, its been worn in good health and you'll be hard-pressed to find much in the way of blemishes or scratches beyond the most minor wear - it's as fresh as can be expected!
