The Hing Wa Lee Rolex Experience

OUR HISTORY

Established over 50 years ago, Hing Wa Lee Jewelers was founded in Hong Kong by Mr. Hing Wa Lee in 1965. He was named as one of the great modern day masters of gemstone carving and became a lifetime honorary Chairman of the Hong Kong Carving Association. After recognizing the opportunity to serve the Chinese-Amercian community, the operation was moved to Maryland in the USA in the 70's. A decade later, Hing Wa Lee jewelers found their permanent home in the San Gabriel Valley, outside Los Angeles in Southern California. In 1992, Hing Wa Lee's oldest grandson, David Lee, joined the family business and adapted the business model. Hing Wa Lee Jewelers proudly became an Official Rolex Jeweler in 1995, showcasing Rolex collections and models for men and women, as well as offering Rolex watch servicing for the San Gabriel Valley community. Just two years later in 1997, Hing Wa Lee Jewelers opened their second store in Rowland Heights in Los Angeles County, with another Rolex showroom, allowing their Rolex collection to expand and offer the most popular and latest models, along with the ultimate Rolex experience. The store was relocated in 2004 to the newly built Hing Wa Lee Plaza in Walnut California, occupying over 11,000 square feet of showroom and with a vast selection of Rolex timepieces, including the Rolex Day-Date, Sea-Dweller, Sky Dweller, Submariner, Yacht-Master Collections and more.
