Rolex Wimbledon

Rolex Wimbledon has been the Official Timekeeper of Wimbledon since 1978 and clocks inside the arena, on the court and throughout the grounds – including the scoreboards – have become as much a part of the grassy court scenery as strawberries and cream. Roger Federer, the bookies’ favourite, is one of Rolex’s high profile ‘testimonees’, and the seven-time Swiss Wimbledon champion might well be donning the new Rolex Wimbledon, or the Rolex GMT-Master II he wore to raise the trophy on the occasion of his fifth Australian Open victory in February 2017.

As mentioned, Rolex launched the Datejust 41 collection in 2016 to carry on the torch for its large-sized Datejust model. The Rolex Wimbledon lineup benefits from the new-gen Caliber 3235 movement, and it includes two options the Datejust II didn’t: Jubilee bracelets, and a two-tone rose gold option.

Interestingly, Rolex made sure to offer the dial in every single configuration. This time around, the dial is available regardless of metal, bezel or bracelet. As always, these Wimbledon dials include non-lumed black enameled Roman numerals with green outlines sitting on a slate gray background.

Among Rolex’s sporting partnerships, its collaboration with Wimbledon is one of the best-known. Rolex and Wimbledon joined forces in 1978 and since then, the Crown’s branding can be seen all over the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club where The Championships are held every summer. Aside from on-site branding, Rolex has also produced a few Datejust watches inspired by Wimbledon’s color scheme. The wimbledon dial is characterized by green-outlined black enamel Roman numerals on a slate gray dial. While they’re not officially called Rolex Wimbledon watches, that’s what they’re known within Rolex collecting communities — and the brand isn’t shy about making the link.

Rolex Datejust 41 reference no. 126331 is referred to as the Rolex Wimbledon. Although the name wasn’t officially designated by Rolex, the fans of the brand have named it so. Some of the design features of this watch are similar to that of the Rolex clock seen during the Wimbledon tournaments.
