EXCLUSIVE - Why is the crown brand the most famous in the world? The most famous watch auctioneer, who notably awarded the personal Daytona of actor Paul Newman, looks back on the Rolex case.


How do you see the famous Geneva watch brand?

Aurel Bacs:

Rolex is truly unique in watchmaking.

It offers a product of excellence in a price range that is in no way stratospheric: even if this is of course a sum, you can buy a coin for 5,000 euros, such as the new Oyster Perpetual series with colored dials.

It is absolutely fascinating how the perception of exclusivity can be maintained despite producing around a million watches per year and a price range still attainable.

Few of the objects deeply associated with the emotion of luxury are not exclusively reserved for billionaires.

Spontaneously, what do you associate the brand with?

AB:

When I think of Rolex, I think of quality.

All his competitors admire him for his creations, his strategy in terms of innovation and value for money.

Of course, Rolex has never produced a Tourbillon, a Minute Repeater or a grand complication.
