Perfect photography showing off these gorgeous Rolex watches and all the precise information as we expect from such a comprehensive channel. The GMT is very conservative and, quite frankly, somewhat underwhelming and insipid. The golden DeepSea is, of course, outrageous but this is Rolex there will be many rich people around the world queueing to get it on their wrist at their cigar or yacht club. The 1908 is exquisite and just looks so elegant from any angle. The diamond stuff isn’t to my personal taste as that’s getting obnoxiously blingy for the sake of it, again many fans wanting to overtly display their wealth on cruise ships and exotic foreign beaches in private resorts.

Gold Deepsea: In my opinion rolex sometimes makes such watches (at first nobody understands it) only to steel the show and to grab everybodys attention and to show their power (because they can). Plus they are the first with it, so everyone else is a copy now, example: what would you think if omega launches an ultra deep in solid gold? You would think, they copy rolex. So everything is for brand awareness, dont forget, rolex wasn't and still isnt the best watch brand (look at patek, vacheron, ap, omega, lange etc.), but they were and still are the best in the industry in marketing, as they always have been. The strategy is still the same, its all about the brand, not the watch. When you see it from a marketing perspective and not from a buyers perspective, then it starts to make sence. Same with Tudor Solid gold bb, everybody asks, who buys this watch for that price? Well from a marketing perspective, If this would be a limited tudor, lets say 5 or 10 pieces, then I know a lot of people that would buy that watch. Moves like this create more brand awareness, and that's what it is all about these days, in my opinion
