THE CHALLENGE

Our task was to craft a brand identity that resonates with the discerning Rolex watch-buying audience. Collaborating closely with the client, we aimed to develop a distinctive look and feel that instantly conveys trust and credibility within the vintage Rolex market.

CLIENT REQUIREMENTS

The client sought a well-positioned brand and e-commerce website capable of showcasing fresh stock regularly. Reflecting the premium nature of the watches, the website design prioritised large, high-quality photography and detailed descriptions for informed purchasing decisions.

Understanding the unique characteristics and appeal of these timepieces was crucial to crafting a brand and website that resonated with the target audience.
