How much is Elon Musk’s watch?
Elon Musk with his $10k watch collection, featuring a Rolex Datejust 16200 and Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra. Musk’s most notable watch is a special TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 1887 SpaceX Chronograph – a limited edition emblazoned with SpaceX rocket imagery.Rolex is a clear number one brand that scores perfectly with all of the criteria applied. Born in the early twentieth century Rolex has devoted their now unparalleled manufacturing capability to creating high end watches of utmost quality and durability. The dominance of the “Big Four” luxury watch brands—Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, and Richard Mille—strengthened, gaining +203 basis points and securing an impressive combined 43.Patek has been making watches for 180 years, while Rolex has only been around for 110,” notes Bob’s Watches founder and renowned Rolex collector, Paul Altieri. But in that time they’ve eclipsed any other luxury watchmaker. Patek may still be tops in terms of pure prestige, but Rolex is more iconic and much cooler.Rolex and Cartier are both famous luxury brands, but they have two very different approaches to watchmaking. Rolex excels in brand prestige, resale quality, and, of course, in-house mechanical prowess. Cartier, on the other hand, is second to none when it comes to history, design, and overall affordability.While a number of companies produce their own movements, Rolex is one of the few that takes the “in-house” designation one step further, and there are actually a number of proprietary Rolex materials that the brand produces entirely in-house.
