What do you don't like about Rolex?

[MathewJ]

JJ,

I am not upset at all, frustrated a bit but not upset...the thread asked what I liked least about Rolex and I answered in kind...I don't think that my issues mentioned above are that off the wall given that many have complained about similar topics before.

I truly believe that if Rolex is going to mandate that their dealers take stock of pieces they know wont sell or will be slow movers then they should have no or little say in what said dealers charge for them instead of forcing the dealers to sell at near MSRP. I also strongly believe that Rolex made a big mistake in revoking parts accounts to many local watchmakers as their own service while good isn't always that great for everything.

Regarding the loupe unfortunatly I think I have to agree with you in that if you are at all picky about precision finish it would be in one's best interest to being a loupe to look the piece over..
