NEW YORK YACHT CLUB CONFIRMS ROLEX WATCH U.S.A. AS OFFICIAL SPONSOR OF INVITATIONAL CUP

2009-06-11T21:27:00.000-07:00

Rolex, the world’s most prestigious maker of timepieces and a long-time supporter of sailing, joins formerly announced sponsor Sperry Top-Sider.

New York, N.Y., USA (June 10, 2009) – Building upon a partnership established in 1994, the New York Yacht Club today announced that Rolex Watch U.S.A. has become an official sponsor of the New York Yacht Club Invitational Cup, to be held Sept. 15-19 in Newport, R.I. Rolex, the world’s most prestigious maker of timepieces and a long-time supporter of sailing, joins formerly announced sponsor Sperry Top-Sider, the iconic American brand best known for inventing the performance boat shoe, in presenting this unique regatta, which features world-class, Corinthian sailing among 18 teams representing premier yacht clubs from around the globe. The winning skipper of the Invitational Cup will receive a specially-engraved Rolex timepiece.

“We are naturally delighted that Rolex is continuing its outstanding support of yachting at New York Yacht Club by becoming a significant sponsor of the inaugural Invitational Cup,” said Event Chair John Mendez. “This support enables us to present a most important international event for amateur sailors who will come from at least 18 yacht clubs representing 14 nations to compete. This will be one of the most significant events that the New York Yacht Club is involved with since the 1983 America’s Cup.”

Compliments of Rolex, video of each day’s racing will be produced by Emmy Award winner and Rolex Testimonee Gary Jobson. The daily shows will be available online during the regatta at www.jobsonsailing.com and be part of a 30-minute television program New York Yacht Club Invitational Cup presented by Rolex to be aired on ESPN2 in the fall and produced by Jobson. A preview video is posted on the NYYC website (http://www.nyyc.org).

The agreement highlights Rolex’s continued support of NYYC events and regattas under an exclusive, five-year sponsorship through the year 2012. The long-standing partnership includes presenting sponsorship of the 155th New York Yacht Club Annual Regatta, scheduled for June 12-14, and the New York Yacht Club Race Week at Newport, taking place in even-numbered years. The Rolex Yachtsman and Yachtswoman of the Year Awards, the sport’s most coveted honors, are hosted annually at the NYYC’s New York clubhouse. This year’s event honored Anna Tunnicliffe and Terry Hutchinson. In 2005, the Rolex Transatlantic Challenge featured superyachts attempting to break the world’s oldest ocean-racing record while covering 3,000 nautical miles from New York to England. Robert Miller's (Hong Kong/New York, N.Y.) 140-foot (43m) Mari-Cha IV broke the 100-year-old record set by Charlie Barr on board Wilson Marshall’s 185-foot (56.4m) Atlantic, in a time of 9 days, 15 hours, 55 minutes and 23 seconds.

“Rolex has a long association with sailing and we are proud to continue our partnership with the New York Yacht Club,” said Rolex Watch U.S.A. President & CEO Allen Brill. “This sailing competition shares the values that Rolex applauds: excellence, precision and team spirit.”

In commemoration of the partnership between the NYYC and Rolex, a 10' 6" Rolex pedestal clock was installed on the club grounds at Harbour Court in 1999. In 2008, specially designed Rolex wall clocks were installed in the new Sailing Center at Harbour Court, in Newport, and in the Model Room at the NYYC’s main clubhouse in Manhattan.

Racing in the New York Yacht Club Invitational Cup will take place on Narragansett Bay and Rhode Island Sound, the same waters where the New York Yacht Club hosted the America’s Cup – a trophy it first won in 1851 – from 1930-1983, or from its 14th Defense in 1930 to the 25th Defense in 1983. Prior to that, it had been in New York Harbor. The sailing is expected to be tough and demanding aboard the NYYC’s Club Swan 42 keelboats, while the on-land activities will celebrate the camaraderie so revered in the sport.

History of Rolex

2009-06-09T09:23:00.000-07:00

In 1905 Hans Wilsdorf and his brother-in-law Alfred Davis founded "Wilsdorf and Davis" in London. Their main business at the time was importing Hermann Aegler's Swiss movements to England and placing them in quality cases made by Dennison and others. These early wristwatches were sold to jewellers, who then put their own names on the dial. The earliest watches from Wilsdorf and Davis were usually hallmarked "W&D" inside the caseback.

In 1908 Wilsdorf registered the trademark "Rolex" and opened an office in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.The company name "Rolex" was registered on 15 November 1915. The word was made up, and its origin is obscure. Wilsdorf was said to want his watch brand's name to be easily pronounceable in any language. One story, never confirmed by Wilsdorf, is that the name came from the French phrase horlogerie exquise, meaning "exquisite clockwork". Another story claims that "rolex" was meant to evoke the sound of a watch being wound.[8] The book The Best of Time: Rolex Wrist Watches by Jeffrey P. Hess and James Dowling says that the name was just made up. The Book A Movement in Time with Breitling & Rolex by Mark A Cooper states that the name came from the partner Alfred Davis and not Wilsdorf. Alfred Davis was a Rolls Royce driver and loved the quality of the car, something he wanted with Rolex. He used the name Rol and then added the popular watch name at the time 'TIMEX' to make the word Rolex

In 1919 Wilsdorf moved the company to Geneva, Switzerland where it was established as the Rolex Watch Company. Its name was later changed to Montres Rolex, SA, and finally Rolex, SA. The company moved out of the United Kingdom because taxes and export duties on the case metals (silver and gold) were driving costs up.

Upon the death of his wife in 1944, Wilsdorf established the Hans Wildorf Foundation in which he left all of his Rolex shares, making sure that some of the company's income would go to charity. The company is still owned by a private trust, and shares are not traded on any stock exchange.

In December 2008 the abrupt departure of Chief Executive, Patrick Heiniger, for “personal reasons”, was followed by a denial by the company that it had lost SwFr1 billion invested with Bernard Madoff, the American asset manager who pleaded guilty to a $50 billion fraud.
