Does the Rolex Oyster Perpetual have a battery?

1 Answer
Does the Rolex Oyster Perpetual have a battery?
No, today's Rolex watches do not have a battery. Instead, the watch harnesses kinetic energy generated by the motion of your wrist to power its movement. The Rolex Oyster Perpetual produced from 1970–2001 did have a battery. You’ll find a large selection of Rolex watches on 1stDibs.
