  1. Rolex are constantly investing in their watches and that investment goes into quality such as keeping the watches completely inhouse. Rolex even have their own foundry and produces its own unique steel that no other brand can say it does. Rolex also are unique in that they produce watches that have screw down crowns but are also thin meaning they can double as a dress watch.

  2. My grandfather gave me his post WW2 Rolex watch and I still wear it today.

  3. Seiko watches are not as comfortable nor do they have screw down crowns to make them into a dive watch. Rolex are a unique watch in that they can do almost anything and be worn on almost any occasion. Grand Seiko watches are really well made, look fantastic and are reliable but they are not a do anything watch. There simply are no other options on the market place to Rolex.

  4. Rolex keeps everything in house meaning they keep their quality. Keeping in house is very expensive an the only other watches that are purely in house cost nearly twice what Rolex do. Also Rolex watches are unique in that they are nearly all screw down crowns meaning they could be used for diving as well.

  5. Don Harrold  You do not think a completely in house made watch, every watch in the range has a screw down crown and every watch made to the same standard does not affect price? Seriously do you really believe that.

  6. +Don Harrold I have been polite to you so far so I doubt the gloves are going to have to come off. What are you actually talking about. Timex does not produce in house watches never mind everyone of their watches having a screw down crown. So I will ask you the question again and I am sure you will avoided it like the first time "You do not think a completely in house made watch, every watch in the range has a screw down crown and every watch made to the same standard does not affect price?" Now answer the question entirely and do not just focus on screwdown crowns on its own.

  7. +Don Harrold I will ask again in a more compact fashion do you think producing in house made watches with screw down crowns is not going to raise the price? And if you answer is no can you provide another brand that produces in house made watches with a screw down crown on their entire watch range.

  8.  @waszkreslem9306  The watches you named are all nice. But they are not completely in house, They are not offering screw down crowns with every watch and they are not as a whole as tough as Rolex watches.

  9. Patek are about 3 times as expensive as Rolex and also they produce a different class of watch.
