The Rolex Awards is a series of biennial awards "aimed at fostering a spirit of enterprise around the world", promoted by the Swiss wristwatch company Rolex. The Rolex Awards recognize outstanding achievement, particularly in the areas of science and medicine; technology and innovation; exploration and discovery; the environment; and cultural heritage. The awards accord generous support to five Laureates and five Associate Laureates for their pioneering efforts to expand knowledge and improve human life. For their new ventures or completion of ongoing projects. Laureates receive US$ 100,000 each, a gold Rolex chronometer, the benefits of official recognition via an awards ceremony and international publicity. The Associate Laureates whose projects are deemed exceptionally promising by the judges also each receive a financial award (US$ 50,000 Associate Laureates in 2008; before it was US$ 35,000), a steel-and-gold Rolex chronometer, and official recognition through ceremonies in their home countries. The accomplishments of these Laureates and Associate Laureates benefit needy communities in the developing world. As of 2008, 110 laureates have been selected since the awards were established in 1976. Judging is done by world-famous experts. All Laureates and Associate Laureates apply in their own behalf. This is an original advertisement from the period. It is in excellent condition for its age, a true vintage piece. It's just smaller than A4 size approx 26cmx17cm ( 7"x10") I have kept this advert well, it was originally from a magazine of the period. This advert has a similar texture to magazine paper today, printed on semi-gloss paper. Perfect for a collector or as a gift, would look lovely in a mounted frame. Please note, due to the age of some of the adverts I am selling some of them will have yellowing and occasional dog - eared corners. However, I have tired to accurately describe the quality of every individual advert. I have loads of other adverts...in categories such as watches, cars, travel, cameras, airlines from the 20's through to the 80's have a browse. ALL AT A STARTING BID OF 99P. Postage see P&P prices in the table below All adverts are very carefully packed in heavy-duty cardboard envelopes so your purchase gets to you safely and will be sent first class with Royal Mail.
