A senior editor with the French daily newspaper Le Figaro since 1993, Fabienne Reybaud is a global authority on luxury watches and jewelry. For her latest book, Reybaud has taken a deep dive into the most widely admired prestigious wristwatch brand in history.

Dropping next month, Rolex: The Impossible Collection details the history of Rolex beginning with the far-reaching vision of its founder, Hans Wilsdorf, who crafted the first wristwatch to earn a Swiss Certificate of Chronometric Precision within his first five years in the timekeeping business.

Reybaud’s Rolex tells the story of this exceptional watch alongside countless others in a fully-illustrated, 194-page book that is a work of art in and of itself. Each volume of this comprehensive, limited-edition wristwatch compendium is made by hand and bound in a luxury clamshell case that features a stylish, metal plaque frontpiece in the shape of the famous Paul Newman’s Daytona.
