Where do they go?
The current production of Rolex watches is said to be several hundred thousand per year, maybe even a million.
Since we know that Rolex wearers and collectors are a mimiscule percentage of the population, what happens to all these Rolex's? Cars wear out, TV's wear out, most things wear out. But Rolex's don't really. So, where are all of the millions upon millions of Rolllie's? Larry.

Almost 7 billion people in the world. Even if 1% Owned Rolex that would be 70 Million Rolex owners at 1 watch each.
I highly doubt Rolex has made 70 million watches and I know that many roles owners own more then one. |

Not to mention Bo's. And Larry's. And Mike's.
And Chris is/was seeking world wide domination of the SS Daytona market!

I believe several are at the bottom of the Severn River, along with 4 or 5 pairs of my Ray-Bans.
