just let me say- i like rolex.
Its easy to bash Rolex, and the comapny has brought it on itself. Howver, it remains one of the biggest brands in the world.
Problem, what is essenatilly a workman like tool watch has been marketed into a status symbol. When i see one, these days, I assume its a fake until I judge otherwise.
Its a big brand, and attracts the same metaility that lusts after all big brands. Which is a shame in so many ways, but especailly as we owe Rolex for almost single handedly saving the mechical watch from the dustbin of history.
