How are Rolex watches powered?
1 Answer
Most Rolex watches are powered by a Perpetual rotor which gently swings as you move your arm, transferring energy to the mainspring of the watch. This means that most Rolex watches are powered by the wearer’s movement. On 1stDibs, find vintage and contemporary Rolex watches from some top global sellers.
