Nicholas Foulkes announced Wednesday that he will continue authoring future Rolex-commissioned books about the brand’s legendary timepieces.

The announcement appeared in an article published by Spear's, a British luxury lifestyle magazine. The London-based author began the series with Oyster Perpetual Submariner: The Watch That Unlocked the Deep, which was released last fall.

For the first time since the book's publication, Foulkes reflected in an article on his writing process and the exclusive access to Rolex's archives, saying he has set out to “write a series of books about the brand’s emblematic models.”

“It is a privilege and pleasure to sit in the Rolex archives sifting through more than a century of letters, memoranda, minutes of board meetings and order books, while surrounded by watches so rare and recondite that few people even know of their existence,” Foulkes wrote in the Spear's article.
