>>18567693Some resellers or Rolex AD must be making them.I've noticed the second someone declares another brand as as good or better than Rolex the thread dies and another one shilling Rolex springs up.Shills ruin the hobby and they'll probably ruin the mechanical industry.Clearly shills making it.
>>18567115LOL at this.The only reason I'd EVER consider a Rolex is because it was swiss made. If even 10% is made in China it holds no value to me more than any other brand.
>>18567933the steel is cut in china why do you think thinks have the machines?
the way i see it, they source the required steel and send it to the chink factory then ship elsewhere for finishing
>>18567933If you want a watch where everything is made in-house, your only option in 2025 is Vostok.
>retards on 4chan who won't even spend 10 seconds doing their own research are claiming Rolexes are made in China because it fits their narrative and some retard Youtuber made a funny soiface on the thumbnailYou do realize pretty much everything is available online, right? All you need to do is read a PDF and try not to be a dishonest cunt for 5 minutes.Rolex' sustainability report for 2023: https://media.rolex.com/rolexcom/about-rolex/corporate-social-responsibility/sustainability-report/pdf/2023-csr-sustainability-report-digital_en?utm_source=chatgpt.com>Rolex produces their own alloys>96% of the raw materials come from Switzerland, 1% from bordering countries (France, Germany, Austria, Italy), 2% from European countries, 1% from other countries (only Thailand and USA are named).>Rolex claims to create, manufacture, assemble and test all their watches exclusively in their own installations in Switzerland>inb4 "B-B-B-BUT THEY'RE LYING!!! THEY HAVE TO BE!!!"They've been audited by Pricewaterhouse Coopers, major consulting company. Also the stakes are too high to lie on this kind of official and public report. If you're caught lying, you're done (and so is the one auditing you).The same informations exist for literally every Swiss brand (it's a legal obligation here). The brands with a good reputation of doing pretty much in house and/or work with only Swiss subcontractors are known by everyone in the industry : Rolex, Patek, AP, JLC, Chopard and Omega. (yes, Omega. Again, public informations).
>>18568000this has all been debunked
>>18567083What's the point of owning/wearing an expensive watch when you can't even wear it freely in the West because some roadman negro will eventually rob it from you? Just use your phone or an Apple watch like rich people. Expensive watches are worn by new money LARPers and negroes.
>>18568025ass
>>18568025I've never seen ass cheek blackheads before.
>>18568000It's time to take your meds, sister. You're posting the same unhinged shit in every thread.
>>18568025spider web
>>18568025I wear gold watches all over and nobody notices or comments on them at all. Might as well be wearing gold colored timexes.
>>18568025What's the point of living in the west at all at this point.If you can't go out of your house without getting mugged or stabbed, maybe you should move to a safer zone.
>>18568336and where would that be?
>>18568000>source=chatgpt.comWhat does this mean?
>>18568000>2% from European countries, 1% from other countries (only Thailand and USA are named).I'm curious which specific parts come from there. what can't the Swiss make that the Thais can?
>>18568360Japan, Singapore, Iceland
>>18568000Were you refuted by one of your Jap whores?
