My Take on Rolex Security
Security review of a Rolex watch:OverviewThis is the 21st century, not only that, with the threat of nefarious actors (both domestic and abroad) looking to steal, kill and destroy all parts of our lives, the security in the gadgets and accessories we use must never be overlooked. This applies to both physical and digital security. For the sake of this article we will not be looking at securing a Rolex, but on the security built into a Rolex itself. With our modern need for security how much as Rolex considered this in the design of their products?Physical SecurityLet me be clear up front that this depends on the year and make of the watch.

iwatch mfg. and innards vs. Rolex
