This article will focus on the Rolex Wimbledon, a Datejust with a special dial variant. General information about the Datejust can be found in the following article.

Rolex and tennis

Of course, Rolex’s connection with Wimbledon is no coincidence. The Swiss watch manufacturer has had a close partnership with tennis for more than 40 years. This began in 1978 with its role as official timekeeper of the Wimbledon Championships. Today, Rolex is a partner of all four Grand Slam® tournaments and has accompanied numerous tennis talents and experienced their duels, including Rod Laver and John Newcombe, Björn Borg and John McEnroe, Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Rolex’s values ​​- excellence, precision and tradition – are perfectly reflected in tennis.

Famous wearers of the Rolex Wimbledon

Numerous players proudly wear the Rolex Datejust Wimbledon. One of the most famous is Roger Federer, eight-time Wimbledon winner. At the 2024 Wimbledon tournament, he wore a Datejust Wimbledon – now as a spectator – which still reminds him of the unique and special moments in his career. Today he is a Rolex brand ambassador, as are Carlos Alcaraz, Iga Świątek, Jannik Sinner and Coco Gauff.

Tennis fans choose the Rolex Wimbledon

The Datejust is the most popular Rolex of all, even outperforming popular models such as the Submariner or Daytona. Almost surprising, as it is a simple, understated three-hand watch with a date display. But that is exactly what makes it the ideal everyday watch. Even though the Datejust is now available with a domed bezel, it is, at least from our point of view, the fluted bezel and the five-row Jubilee bracelet that make it highly recognizable and particularly attractive. The Rolex Datejust Wimbledon stands out in the variety of different dial variants and its timelessness simply never gets boring.
