Original Rolex watches use Swiss clockwork, whose quality is beyond reproach, plus the casings were deliberately made luxurious as well as resistant, so as to make the result even more of an expensive luxury item. Add to it that they were great innovators in the watchmaking industry, creating such gadgets as the self winding watch or the waterproof watch, and you can see how they got quite a reputation
Some rich people with influence over fashion adopted them, which made them highly sought after, and even more expensive... and now they are a century old standard of luxury watchmaking in a world where there are more snobbish people with too much money than ever before, and you've got the stage set for luxury stuff that's priced outrageously and still successful.

All of Rolex's watches are made from only the highest quality materials. Whether that be metal or precious stone, it is guaranteed to have passed the intense testing to ensure the quality is to the standards Rolex will accept.
1. They Use An Expensive And Difficult To Machine Steel Because It Looks Better
2. Rolex Has Its Own Science Lab
3. Their Movements Are All Hand-Assembled And Tested
4. An In-House Foundry Makes All Their Gold
5. Technology Is A Watchmaker's Best Friend

The company is now starting to introduce ceramic bezels across the range of professional sports watches. They are available on the Submariner, Sea Dweller-Deepsea, GMT Master II and Daytona models. The ceramic bezel is not influenced by UV-light and is very scratch resistant.
