Rolex clocks

So you see those giant Rolex clocks everywhere, golf courses, malls, rolex AD's, airport....


Where does one buy a Rolex clock like that? thought it would be an uber cool addition to the house.

I like the clocks with the gold bezel, like this

Buy an AD, and you'll be supplied with one!

Other than that, I have been told, that I can NOT have the one that hangs in my AD.

And ironically they are not made by Rolex, but made in China.

I've heard all the ones on ebay are fake, be careful. But then again does it really matter. Just don't pay to much.

C'mon guys, if it didn't say Rolex you wouldn't look twice. If it said Acurist we'd laugh at the sheer size and tackiness of it if your friend had it on his wall IMO.
All that glitters is not gold.

Not really never heard of Rolex making clocks anyway.

I bought some from ebay and they're excellent quality, the panerai ones are amazing!

Im sure they're fake since there's no way these would be available to sell. Plus I'm sure the actual clocks are probably not even made by Rolex, must be farmed out to some other company in China that specialize in them...

The Rolex clocks on ebay are ALL FAKES!!

Rolex do not market wall clocks. The ones you see at your AD are only display pieces (NOT FOR SALE) and are made specially by Rolex as complimenary DISPLAY pieces for the AD only.

I don't think you can find a genuine Rolex clock anywhere.

Rolex makes a great wrist watch but doesnt make golf course clocks. The leading manufacturer for golf course clocks is the Verdin Company (www.verdin.com). We raised money to put a Verdin in and glad we did. Watching the British Open was fun to see all the clocks...hats off to Rolex for providing them.

I just bought 3 of these Rolex clocks from a decorative store in my area last week. Rolex does not make any of these, so question about fakes is out. Its just to show that i admire Rolex watches and i'm proud to tell it to the world. These clocks doesn't have any financial value at all but really looks good on any wall!
