Rolex enjoys an unrivalled reputation for quality and expertise the world over. Its Oyster watches are symbols of excellence, performance and prestige. Pioneer in the development of the wristwatch as early as 1905, the brand is at the origin of several landmark innovations in watchmaking, including the Oyster, the first waterproof wristwatch, and the Perpetual rotor self-winding mechanism.

Rolex is also actively involved in supporting the arts, exploration, sports and the environment through sponsoring, philanthropic and patronage programmes. Since the late 1950s, the brand has harnessed the passion for yachting and its popularity by establishing deep-rooted ties with influential yacht clubs across the globe. The long-standing partnership with the Royal Yacht Squadron symbolizes the enduring bond between Rolex and the maritime world.

UBS is delighted to be supporting the Royal Yacht Squadron’s Bicentenary. We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the Royal Yacht Squadron on the important role they have played in the sport of sailing over the last 200 years, which has earned them respect as one of the most iconic sporting clubs in the world.

The entry for the July Bicentenary Regatta is equally impressive for both its breadth and its quality and is testament to the high regard in which they are held across the world. All of us at UBS wish everyone taking part in this historic event an exciting and enjoyable time both on and off the water.
