Crown guard – Close protection


This is our crown guard. Designed to protect the winding crown, it was introduced in 1959 on the Submariner and GMT-Master before equipping most of our Professional watches. Stamped as an integral part of the middle case, it elegantly extends the case sides to the tip of the crown. Its unique design blends perfectly with each model’s curves, ensuring harmonious continuity of the case. Close protection requires two inseparable qualities: a reassuring presence and an ability to remain inconspicuous. Discover more https://on.rolex.com/3VU6BzK
