The Watch Book Rolex: Next Generation offers a deep insight into the history and iconic models of Rolex on 256 pages. From the Submariner to the GMT-Master and Day-Date to the Daytona, each model is brought to life with exciting stories and interesting details.

The renowned bestselling author and “watch pope” Gisbert L. Brunner guides readers through the Rolex universe with his usual passion and expertise, from the beginnings to the pioneering models that revolutionized the watch industry.

The Watch Book Rolex: Next Generation offers a wealth of information, a modern layout, numerous impressive photographs and also addresses the influence of Rolex on pop culture and the arts. Guest articles on the topics of recognizing counterfeits and collecting watches expand the knowledge about the brand.

It is not only the unique content of the illustrated book that is impressive, but also the presentation. The elegant slipcase of the special edition features the brand-new Rolex Oyster Perpetual Land-Dweller, a model with 32 filed patents, reflecting Rolex's high standards and innovative strength.

Born in 1947, Gisbert L. Brunner has been fascinated by wristwatches and precision timepieces since 1964. His lifelong passion for mechanical watches inspired him to begin writing in the early 1980s. Today, he contributes regularly to leading publications such as Chronos Japan and ZEIT Magazin, and in 2018, he co-founded the renowned watch website uhrenkosmos.com.

Brunner is the author of more than 30 books on watchmaking—ten of them published by teNeues—including bestsellers such as The Watch Book I, The Watch Book II, The Watch Book Rolex (2017), and 100 Iconic Watches (2024).
