Our trusted network of 1stDibs sellers answer common questions
Will a Rolex stop ticking when I take it off?
1 Answer
No, Rolex watches feature a Perpetual rotor technology that collects energy from the movement of your wrist and stores it to power the watch. Once you have taken off the watch, it will continue to work for up to 70 hours, and will subsequently begin charging once you wear it again. You’ll find a collection of expertly vetted Rolex watches from top boutiques on 1stDibs.
