The updated edition of the outstanding volume 100 Superlative Rolex Watches, first published in 2008 by author John Goldberger, is now available. Nearly twenty years after the release of the original edition, this new version offers a fascinating journey into the very essence of the Rolex spirit, celebrating one hundred years of Rolex history through one hundred exceptional examples. The book has now been enriched with new images and information on some of the rarest and most unique Rolex watches ever produced.

Each watch has been photographed in exceptional detail to highlight the distinctive characteristics of its movement, case, and dial. The selection of these one hundred masterpieces also serves to focus the research within what would otherwise be an immensely vast field, capturing the true essence of a brand that has likely contributed more than any other to the development of the wristwatch.
