The cheapest genuine Rolex watch is more than 2W yuan
In 1931, Rolex produced the "PERPETUAL" watch that later became popular, bringing a revolution to the watch industry. A revolution. This kind of automatic watch has a pendulum on the central axis, which can convert the slight movement of the wrist swing into the power of the watch, so there is no need to manually wind the watch. This was recognized as the most accurate and reliable automatic watch winding technology at the time. In 1945, Rolex launched the world's first watch that could automatically change the date. In 1956, it launched a calendar watch with a day of the week display function and 26 Chinese characters to choose from. Rolex watches have always been known for their professional functions, so they are highly respected by professionals around the world. In 1955, Rolex invented the pilot's watch so that people could measure precise time in different time zones. In the same year, Rolex launched a diving watch for deep-sea divers, which was waterproof to a depth of 100 meters. The original logo of Rolex was a palm with five fingers extended, which indicated that the brand's watches were entirely crafted by hand. Later, it gradually evolved into Crown's registered trademark to show its dominance in the watch field. In the international market, the price of an ordinary Rolex watch ranges from US$1,000 to US$15,000. This is not only due to the excellent quality of Rolex, but also because of its unique investment value. At an auction held in Geneva in 2002, a 1952 Rolex Perpetual Calendar gold watch worn by the last Vietnamese emperor Bao Dai was sold for a sky-high price of 342,000 Swiss francs (approximately US$235,400 at the time).
