Rolex slogan?

Most of us are probably familiar with patek’s slogan “...you don’t own a Patek you keep it for the next generation” or something close to that.

But does anyone know if Rolex has a slogan?

Some suggestions I thought of were:

“We only sell sports watches to people we like”

“Yes we sell the ceramic Daytona, just wait around a few years and maybe we will call you”

“Trying to eliminate flippers one at a time by creating shortages for our customers”

“Grey market sellers of our watches are worse than ISIS”

“We only sell sports watches to people we like”

The Rolex Way... is sort of their slogan. They have published an entire book that harps on the perfection of “The Rolex Way”.

What should it be?

Rolex - the Grey Market Way.

I'm going with "Want a Rolex....Sike!"
Or maybe "The things dreams are made of, dream on beotch!"

To the OPs question, isn't one of the slogans "Rolex - it doesn't just tell time, it tells history," which I think is pretty cool.

I suppose this is it. Also, it's pretty lame when compared to some others. I liked "Porsche. There is no substitute."

Getting a Daytona C from the AD is an achievement.
