    There is no official first Rolex watch, as Hans Wilsdorf, the original watchmaker behind Rolex was making watches before ever branding them as Rolex. When the German-born watch dealer and his brother-in-law, Alfred Davis, set up their London enterprise, in 1905, they called it Wilsdorf & Davis, according to the traditional formula. But Wilsdorf was determined to come up with another name that was short, would look good on a watch dial and was easy to say and remember in several languages. In 1908, he trademarked the name Rolex.

    “First pick,” “exclusive access” and “right of first refusal” are all phrases that are similar to “first dibs.”


    First dibs, which means to have the rights to something or the first choice of something, reportedly emerged in the United States in the early 1930s. (In the United Kingdom, the first recorded occurrence of the slang phrase took place during the late 1800s.) To verbally call first dibs on something means that you’re laying claim to it. Who doesn’t want first dibs? 


    1stDibs has become the global destination for those who must have “first dibs” on treasures from around the world that would otherwise be inaccessible. There is nothing similar to 1stDibs. Since our founding in 2000, we have captured the magic of the Paris flea market, connecting those seeking the most beautiful things on earth with highly coveted sellers and makers in furniture and home decor, art, fine jewelry and fashion


    1stDibs works with a range of trusted prestigious sellers, who are respected professionals in their fields, and the company is committed to shoppers’ satisfaction and peace of mind with every single purchase.

    Although the very first chair to be invented is up for speculation, one of the earliest was created during the Early Dynastic Period of Egypt around 3100 B.C.

    The first Chanel bag isn’t known by a specific model name. It was technically created during the 1920s, when Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel began to design handbags as part of the clothing and accessories she was producing for her couture house. While the revolutionary designer and founder of the brand was experimenting with a range of handbag designs during the era, the first Chanel bag to have a recognizable style name was the Chanel 2.55. Unveiled in February 1955, the 2.55 shoulder bag is truly iconic, and its quilted details and clasp have been featured on many other Chanel pieces. Shop a large selection of Chanel bags on 1stDibs.

    The first fashion designer was Charles Frederick Worth. Born in England in 1825, Worth apprenticed for textile merchants and relocated to Paris. There, after gaining experience in sales, the British tailor opened a dressmaking department for a large French company before he started a workshop of tailors and seamstresses who produced his early designs for the Parisian elite. Worth was an innovator and an influencer of his day.
