这就是他们的面包和黄油，直到今天。接下来的生涯中它演变成了奢侈品牌，这就是人们现在所熟知的劳力士。

So that's kind of the interesting thing about them is they initially were tool watches which have now become luxury.

The Submariner's $8,000. The entry-level watch at Rolex is $5,000 with the Oyster Perpetual⁽¹⁾.

潜航者的价格为8000刀，入门级腕表则是价格为5000美元的蚝式恒动。
⁽¹⁾Oyster Perpetual蚝式恒动，虽然Oyster Perpetual可能看起来有点过于花香的集合名称，但这两个词实际上是对其起源的描述。牡蛎部分是世界上第一款防水防尘手表，劳力士于1926年推出。传说威尔斯多夫在晚宴上尝试打开软体动物时想到了这个名字。他认为他的新外壳设计与手中的外壳一样难以打开，同样需要特殊的工具来完成。
这个名字的后半部分Perpetual是对劳力士于1931年发明的自动上链机芯的一种认可，因为它是由腕部的永久运动驱动的。随着劳力士的收藏品的扩大，这个名字不再是指一个特定的系列，而是成为一个前缀，其上包括Explorer，DateJust，Day Date，Daytona，Yacht-Master和Milgauss等。Oyster Perpetual表示腕表的防水和自动机芯，而第二个名字暗示了额外的附加功能，例如1971年Explorer II上的独特24小时指针，专为洞穴和极地探险家设计的手表，需要知道它是否是一天或者晚上。或者像2007年Yacht-Master II一样的赛船计时码表。无后缀的Oyster Perpetual系列采用简单的三手设计，仍然是劳力士系列中最实惠的（有些人会说可穿戴式）手表。

Their three qualities are self-winding, waterproof and precision. And they really focus on quality.

它们的三个特性是自动上弦、防水和走时精确。并且他们非常注重品质。

11

It takes one year to make a Rolex. They go through extensive testing. The accuracy, the chronometer, the timing, it's all about telling the right time, keeping the right time.

显示译文▼

劳力士公司需要一整年的时间研发一块新表。他们要经过大量的测试。包括精确程度、精密时计、定时，都是为了正确报时，保持正确走时。

12

They also have extensive service work after, so if you ever have a problem with your Rolex, you can take it to them and they'll fix it.

显示译文▼

他们也有大量的售后工作，所以如果你的劳力士遇到问题，你可以拿给他们，他们将为您解决。

13

The clasp is opened and closed a thousand times before it leaves so you know that when you get it, it's not gonna break.

表扣在出厂前经过上千次的开和关的测试，所以你懂得，当你拿到它时，它不可能坏。

14

The whole point of a Rolex is you buy one now, it will last you for 20 years if you take care of it. It will last you for 100 if you really take care of it.

说重点，你现在买一块劳力士，如果你平时留意颐养，可以用20年。如果你足够的珍惜它，它运行个百年也不成问题。
