Rolex Watches are world renowned for quality. The power of the brand Rolex is unparalleled. Often people simply refer to Rolex Watches by using the name Rolex which often is synonymous with Rolex Watches. Rolex has become a word associated with status, the right and famous and celebrities. The reputation of Rolex comes from years of innovation.
Rolex was founded by Has Wilsdorf in 1905. The company was originally called Wilsdorf & Davis. The trademark for the name Rolex was registered in Switzerland in 1908. In 1912 Wilsdorf & Davis moved out of the U.K., and set up their operation s in Geneva, Switzerland and started selling larger quantities of Rolex Watches. The name Rolex was not officially the companies name until 1919. The reason for the change to Rolex was to make the name easy to pronounce in any language.
The company became a great innovator with several innovations which were all incorporated in Rolex Watches. This lead to several companies copying Rolex Watches and coming up with a competitive Rolex Replica. Rolex was also the first company to create a waterproof watch, and again other companies created a Rolex Replica. Rolex has several watches that are suitable for sporting and other activities. Watches similar to the sports models have also been introduced by other watch companies creating a Rolex Replica once again.
Making a Rolex Replica was so attractive to other companies that other brands were started just by making a Rolex Replica. Rolex had several joint ventures as a result of the tendency of others to produce a Rolex Replica. The Tudor brand was actually an attempt by Rolex to benefit off of a Rolex Replica
