This comprehensive and detailed reference guide to Rolex sports model watches is an indispensable asset to watch collectors and dealers. The only work of its kind, it covers the history of the Submariner, Sea-Dweller, Explorer, GMT-Master, Turn-O-Graph, Milgauss, and Cosmograph watches, from 1952 to 1990. The history of more than 140 vintage models is described in detail, with the watches shown in chronological order. Color photographs illustrate every watch model, with hundreds of diagrams providing clear and useful information about the development of each model. Twenty-two rare Rolex brochures are shown along with numerous catalog photographs and the associated sale prices of sports models sold at Christie¹s and Sotheby's worldwide from 1997 to 2017. Also included is a current price guide for every model shown in the book. Rolex watches continue to dominate the collecting market, and this authoritative volume, now in its revised and expanded 4th edition, continues to be the essential resource for the Rolex collector, dealer, and auctioneer.

Made with the finest materials
Designed by father & son, The Foxton Watch Stand is designed with using only the finest and most durable materials available. The top and bottom cushion pads are hand-crafted using Chamel® Selection, a high-quality suede effect fabrication. Specifically designed to protect your watches and jewellery against blemishes and scratches, these colourways are available in 4 colour variants; Charbon Black, Forest Green, Stone Grey and Rose Pink. All Foxton Watch Stands are manufactured from sustainably sourced Solid American Walnut & Oak.
Timeless Elegance
Designer & creators, Jason & Daniel Stebbens explains:“Having previously owned a watch stand, the issue we found is that most available watch stands on the market cannot hold more than 2 watches. Having the ability to rotate various watches became difficult and therefore we designed a watch stand that could hold up 4 watches at Ø42mm. Our partners also needed to store a watch somewhere and the 4 watch stand became the perfect piece. We were conscious about creating a sustainably sourced product and therefore have the whole product including packaging produced within a 30-mile radius of our office in West Yorkshire, United Kingdom”.After 1 year of designing and prototyping, The Foxton Watch Stand was born.
Rugged & Sustainable Packaging
With sustainability in mind, The Foxton Watch Stand is packaged in FSC grade card and paper and biodegradable foam inserts. The packaging has been carefully developed to ensure that each product is safely delivered to each customer.
