Aucoin Hart History Original Rolex Watch

The 1920s - 1950’s

Rolex and Aucoin Hart were both founded in the early twentieth century. While Hans Wilsdorf, Rolex’s visionary founder, was establishing his legendary Genevan manufacture in the 1920s, Hart Jewelers opened for business in New Orleans. During the 1950s, as Rolex was developing professional watches that served as tools and whose functions went far beyond simply telling the time, Aucoin Hart was evolving as a whole. New opportunities arose for Hart Jewelers when the company was purchased by watchmaker Bert Aucoin, moving to its current location on Metairie Road.
