Possibly the most well-known high class watch brand on the planet

Rolex. Rolex. Rolex. God I love that name.  Rolex started in London back in 1905.  It moved to switzerland shortly after and its headquarters are still there today.  It is a privately held company that has made billions of dollars selling their high quality watches.  Rolex has 11 different types of watches for men, and 6 kinds for women.  Its founder, Hans Wilsdorf, had the vision of wearing a watch on your wrist.  So, he did just that and transformed pocket watches to be made on your wrist.  The craftsmanship he attained combined with the Swiss elegance eventually made Rolex become so successful and well-known.  There's a really short background information of Rolex for you guys.  Here are a few of my favorite models:

Black and gold Oyster Perpetual Submariner

All gold Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date

Silver Band Rolex Oyster Perpetual Sea-Dweller

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust
