When did Rolex start engraving the rehaut?
1 Answer

Rolex started laser-engraving the rehaut in 2005 in an attempt to make their famous timepieces harder to counterfeit. The Datejust was the first model to receive this treatment. You can shop a collection of expertly vetted timepieces from some of the world’s top reputable sellers on 1stDibs.
