I've heard PP is now going without the Geneva Seal. Not because they can't conform to the standards required of the seal, but rather (and this is not 100% certain) the ease in many brands meeting the same standards (including Cartier) gets under their skin. Or in other words, PP doesn't think Cartier deserves to be in the same league.
Rolex may find themselves superlative but I would like to hear from a Rolex insider why they chose to use "superlative". Perhaps it really is all about marketing and self promotion. To a non-WIS, Rolex may be considered to be the best of the best. We all know there are many brands out their that equally deserve to be called "superlative" too.
