Rolex has created an Oyster 100 special edition to mark 100 years since the original Oyster case debuted in 1926. The tribute references the first Oyster wristwatch, which appeared in an octagonal case with wire lugs, Roman numeral hour markers, a railroad minutes track, thin baton hands and a small-seconds display.
