    Great video. I have only owned one Rolex, a SS/Gold Datejust purchased new in 1994. Since that time, it has been on my wrist every day, having been worn regardless of conditions, running the gamut from Black tie events to diving, and an enormous amount of extreme manual labor. It has only been serviced one time under my ownership, about 23 years ago. Amazingly, it still keeps time to within 5 secs/day. In short, it has been my constant companion, and, even though I have abused it, it has, not even once stopped working nor fallen off my wrist. It will soon become an heirloom, as I'm giving it to my 27 year old son. It was even on my wrist the day I watched him come into this world. I would say my Rolex's history is a pretty good testament to the durability and value of the brand.

      @@antonmarkov1635 its true 👍. When I think back, I realize what a great deal it was...i paid $3700 for my Rolex [ss and gold], and could easily get $5000 for it today... Essentially I've made money by wearing it all these years. And when I add in what I would have spent on cheap watches thru the years? Holy moly, I'm sure that would have added up to several thousands of dollars. And I got to wear a Rolex all that time [not that I'm materialistic, mind you, but, I'm just sayin]. Win-win situation for sure!

    Informative video although more like a commercial than an analytic piece. That said, it seems obvious that Rolex takes excellence seriously. Personally, since excellence is a compelling theme and interest to me, kudos to the company for focusing so seriously on being the best. The theme of proper integration of human work and machine work is one that cuts across many industries including my own.

    Oystersteel or I 904L is actually SOFTER than the 316L stainless steel most other watch manufacturers use. Rockwell hardness of 904L is 90 but it’s 95 for 316L. Major error. This was quite an irritating video because of the inaccuracies and also because it was implying Rolex are superior to all other watch brands. There are many more sophisticated and luxurious mechanical watches out there than Rolex. One thing Rolex does do better than most though is to not have any real weaknesses. The watches are extremely robust and reliable as well as being luxurious.

    Despite people's comments, we all have to admire Rolex. They take great pride in their brand and control every aspect of production to ensure consistent quality. They have a policy of continuous improvement and have to be one of the best brands in the world today. If I had the option to work for a watch company, it would have to be Rolex. Its a shame that in the UK and USA, we never get the same long term philosophy with brands because everything is driven by short term gains in share prices and short term profitability targets!

      @@randalljames730 a watch's quality is determined by multiple factors, including the movement's craftsmanship and the sturdiness of the case material. Rolex has very good quality, but not worth the crazy prices. Compare with a Breguet, where the movement has much better finishing, and the case made with more finesse. Or compare a Rolex with a Zenith, which has a better movement for cheaper. Or a Girard Perregaux, who for retail Rolex prices sells you something with much sturdier construction and a better finished movement.

      Something else: a watch's value and worth is not just based on it as a product but also on the brand's worth. Rolex's worth is largely based on the crazy hype it commands, when to be quite frank they haven't really innovated or done anything new in a while. Compare Rolex with brands like Moser, Parmegiani or Vacheron Constantin that are always trying to push the limits of horology, and it's a bit of a shame that the most famous luxury watch brand only plays it safe with its (admittedly very good) product.

    1,050,000 watches per year, 29,000 employees = 36 watches per employee per year. However most employees will be admin, sales, management etc, so perhaps as a guess 10,000 people are hands on making rolex. Therefore 105 watches per employee per year is about one watch every 2 days. 29,000 with average wage of £30k would be £900million and turnover at 8 billion CHF. Estimated cost if production £500 for a £5000 watch, with the gold content of the sold gold watches at approx £9k. All figures are estimates and gladely differ to Rolex if figures are inaccurate.

    The whole video: shameless advertising for the overpriced Rolex watches, but not showing the manufacturing process.
    And then at 2:44 showing a completely unrelated blood test lab.
    Also, the actual footage from the factory is filmed with a potato.
    Well done!

    Hype, hype and more hype...
    Who cares how "good" the body of the watch is? The important bit is the movement.
    Rolex are good but nowhere near as good as the price the gullible are willing to pay for them.

    • @godfreyberry1599

      Well said. Never had and never will have any emotional attachment to a Rolex. The hype is so utterly ridiculous, I am beyond words to describe.

    I appreciate that Rolex are very good quality watches.I personally like Seiko watches,yes Seiko are far more cheaper to manufacture but i like the look of Seiko Dive watches and the Prospex line.Or the Seiko Flighty.

    The video is "All the things that you need to know about Rolex watches", except why you can't walk into an AD and walk out with a Rolex watch, or why their watches tend to end up in the hands of grey marked dealers and not on the wrists of the everyday consumer who walks into the shop of an authorized Rolex dealer..

    They don't MAKE gold! They blend a gold alloy! All they are doing is taking 24ct gold and adding a certain amount of Copper and Silver to create the blend which is 18ct.
