A nautical scene signed with the Rolex crown: the scarf translates the watchmaker's long association with the sea into silk. It is an unusual object from a house known for watches, and it carries the same understated confidence as its timepieces.
Rolex silk twill scarf with nautical design, 1980s
This Rolex scarf dates from the 1980s. It is made in smooth, lightweight silk twill, with a refined nautical layout accented by discreet Rolex crown details. Made in France, it is finished with hand-rolled hems and measures 83 x 83 cm.
The watchmaker's crown, in silk.
Rolex was founded in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf and later established in Geneva, and its five-pointed crown has become one of the most recognised emblems in luxury. On this scarf the crown appears in small details, used as a signature rather than a pattern.
Rolex has long been associated with the sea, through yachting and diving watches. A nautical design on a Rolex scarf follows that association, bringing the brand's maritime world into an accessory.
Rolex is known almost entirely for its watches, so textiles and accessories bearing its name are unusual. Silk scarves from the 1980s in very good condition, with vivid colours, are sought after by collectors of the brand.
Rolex-branded objects other than watches attract collectors of the brand and its history.
Silk scarves fade and fray with wear, so examples with vivid colours are less common.
Large silk squares are back in styling, worn at the neck, in the hair or tied to bags.
