Sure they could, not this year or the next, but nothing lasts forever.

McDonald's will go BK before Rolex.

If Rolex ever did go bankrupt we would have a lot of others things to worry about. Like a world wide economic collapse.

Let me reiterate. With products like these, how could they go bankrupt?

Exactly. It probably will happen at some point in the future.

Any business can go bankrupt.

Still, as others have said, anything is possible!

Any business could go bankrupt but I doubt that will happen to rolex. They have a product that is always in demand by people like us.

Id say if they got swallowed up by swatch group for whatever hypothetical reason, that would make all "pre swatch group" rolexes go WAY higher in value...

Just wondering

You eat a lot of paint chips?

Of course it could happen.
They're a company manufacturing and selling goods. Not sure why you're getting stick for asking this, it's a fair question.

But of course highly unlikely. What with demand in Asia and still some very well off people in the world I'm sure they'll survive.

Warren Buffet who himself owns a YG DD would buy this excellent company before it went bankrupt. As amazing as both he and rolex are. Neither is a likely scenario, even though Mr. Buffet would love the opportunity.

Not as long as we are here.

The Joker · 19 February 2013, 12:36 PM

Rolex are going Bankkrupt?

When did this happen? And can we get remaining stock cheap?

I'm getting up early and heading to the AD.

Only if Pateks start selling for $200, and probably not even then.
