Rolex factory photo
On my recent trip to Switzerland where we visited quite a few watch manufacturing companies, part of the tour was a trip to Vacheron Constantine in the Plan-les-Ouates area of Geneva. As we approached the VC buildings, I spotted one of the various Rolex factories that are in the Geneva area. As we drove by I snapped this photo of the yard out back, and I believe it holds the secrets to the famous 904L steel that Rolex uses.....
