Reasons for the high prices of Rolex watches
The question remains here why we find an hour whose value is higher than a luxury car, with the demand for its purchase among the wealthy,
The "Entisting Engining" website has determined 4 reasons behind the high price of Rolex hours, foremost of which is the great design that requires a high -level work team, and then exorbitant salaries.
The design process also requires monitoring huge financial allocations for research and development laboratories, which work to develop more efficient manufacturing methods, and reach innovative new technologies, in addition to using electronic microscopes, which are very sensitive equipment equipped to deal with the fine parts of Rolex hours.
The second factor is the details of the manufacturing of watches, as Rolex products are mostly assembled manually, which coincides with the completion of these operations inside Switzerland, which is famous for the cost of manpower,
The manufacturing process is more expensive for mechanical watches compared to normal hours, due to the small size of most parts of the hour, which increases the possibility of errors during the assembly and manufacturing process.
The report indicates that there is another reason for the high prices for Rolex watches, which is the use of expensive materials such as white gold in the manufacture of the watch ports, providing the watch engine with precious stones, making numbers from platinum, and using stainless "904 L" steel..
As for the last reason, it lies in the quality and high efficiency that can be matched by any other hour, which guarantees that the watch retains its value when the sale..
