Beautiful facility and surroundings! And they still don't manage to keep dust from under the crystals

Rolex has some room to go up in price. Patek and Lange have set the market. Rolex is just going to catch up until they see demand slow. Not yet!

Maybe it is not actually dust, but tiny grass clippings from that beautifully manicured lawn.

Very impressive looking building ---- but something tells me that ROLEX does not abuse their $$ or take it for granted....

What I noticed in the article was this.
"To take one example: the majority of brands recommend a five-yearly service for their watches; Rolex has raised the bar to ten years." I did not know this. I did think it still was 5 years? This is very good news for me.
