In Conversation with Ulrich Herzog, Rolex Sea-Dweller Replica Chairman

Ensconced in the brand's London pop-up store, Rolex Sea-Dweller Replica's charismatic chairman Ulrich Herzog talks about in-house capabilities, corporate responsibility and the runaway success of the Divers Sixty-Five.

You're wearing the Rolex Sea-Dweller Replica Big Crown ProPilot Calibre 114 GMT. Tell me about this latest in-house movement.

Calibre 114 is the latest movement to come from the in-house know-how we have developed over the past four years and it shows what can be done with a good base movement. We started with Calibre 110 in 2014, which marked the 110th anniversary of the company and was our first manufacture movement in 35 years. The key to the movement is its 10-day power reserve from a single barrel and, from Calibre 110, we created Calibres 111, 112, 113 and now 114, our GMT movement.

It had to be different from the other GMTs on the market, so it's a GMT with something extra, a second time zone that can be set in increments of 30 minutes. This isn't relevant to many countries, but there are areas in India and Australia where the time difference involves half-an-hour. India, in particular, is a growing market and now we can offer them something that is quite special and specific to them.

At Rolex Sea-Dweller Replica, we now have everything in-house from R&D, through the whole engineering to construction. We have a special workshop near Geneva and Calibre 115 is already in development.

Why did you feel the need to develop an in-house movement and what, if any, concerns did you have with Calibre 110?
