Thanks Padi for this information.. This puts Rolex in a really High Rank!

Can you please give us more info about Rolex Sapphire Crystals.. Are they manufactured by a Rolex owned factory ? I've read in Watch Time Magazine that [ COMADUR ] - Owned by Swatch Group is the largest crystals manufacturer & supplier to most Swiss watches makers including Rolex..
