Rolex Werke in China??????

[Robin_NL]

Was hör ich jetzt van ein meiner Mitarbeiter?

Tut mir Leid ich gehe auf Englisch:

A employee of mine called a spare watch parts centre, here in Holland.
They were talking about Rolex and the watch parts centre told him all the spare ROLEX parts are available easily, because ROLEX SA has GENUINE Manufactories in CHINA. I didn't/don't believe it, just fake blablabla, just becaus for one thing SWISS MADE means a lot.

What do you think? I don't believe this...

Mit freundliche Grüsse,

Robin

Sorry Robin but watch parts centre your employee called is either ill informed or - more likely - wants to trick somebody into buying aftermarket parts.

Genuine Parts as well as the watches are made in Switzerland - period!

Well, in the past this was called
LCC => LOW Cost Country.

Today they just call it
BCC => BEST Cost Country.

The name was changed, the rest remains the same, but now everything is excellent (especially the quality ).

I don't know if Rolex already made this step, but in my branch (car design work) this is daily business.

Guess, why I prefer an 18 year old swedish car for private use?

Thanx for the replies, I just called the service centre: They told me there are NO Rolex SA manufactories in China or Asia, BUT the dutch service centre buys the GENUINE ROLEX SWISS MADE PARTS from a opfficial Rolex AD in Macao/HongKong wherever...

Which means my employee misunderstood.:/

The parts are GENUINE but make a trip around the world so to speak

Geneve/Biel->Macao/HongKong->Netherlands

tja, das kommt halt davon wenn man betriebsbesichtigungen anbietet - da ist der asiate mit kamera nicht weit!

erinnert mich gerade an einen teil von police academy, wo sich auch ein asiate bewirbt und der ausbilder fragt "was willst du bei uns, das schnittmuster unserer baskenmützen kopieren?" sorry war etwas ot, hehe...

Vielen Dank für die Antworte/Diskussion Leute

this man losts his job: fire him!

[scholli]

Ich denke nicht, dass die Schweizer Uhrenmanufakturen diesen Schritt nötig haben - eher wird der Preis angehoben...

Never ever I believe that Rolex is doing this due to the fact that the reputation losses are to big or to tremendous for their business.

Therefore I'm very sure that you will never get some spare parts from asia..
