Yes, it’s over, no more Rolex to Russia. My AD said that all their shipments are already rerouted to Miami.

No one made this political. Question lacks any sense of rationality.

Morons.

Broaden it to all companies and then Google your query.

Hard to, when I have zero combat experience. I have, however, donated $, which certainly helps.

Some of us joined the forums to learn more about watches. Not sh%*posts like this one.

I’m not interested in getting a watch by the way. I was curious as to whether Rolex had made a statement as have Aston Martin , Sony , Disney etc.

It’s a Rolex forum , I was interesting in getting an insight into what kinda company and management is at play with rolex

I'm sure they will stop shipment. They are basically N Korea now.

If this is what concerns people, then perhaps we should worry more about the fate of humanity.
I think you need to improve your mind reading skills. Actually, just improving your reading skills would be a start.

OP. I have no idea. There is a concerted effort to quickly squeeze Russia from every possible angle (apart from in the UK of course, where we give them 30 days notice so that come day 31, there are no assets left to freeze). Switzerland has historically stayed out of these disputes and been steadfastly neutral. This is not the case this time, although the Swiss have strong, defensive and unambiguous views on commerce and things that may interfere with it. I guess we'll know soon enough.

+1

back to OP's original Q - haven't seen anything on Rolex yet but read in the news about Nike, and several other brands halting sales. My guess is it also has to do with unpredictable volatility in currency - hard to price products when things move double digit %s daily.

I emailed a Russian chap a cheeky offer for his Daytona yesterday on chrono24. Today all Russian listings have been pulled.

Political??? You must have had all your tvs, radios and comps turned off in the past days. It is about normal, civilized, like you, people being killed in THEIR independent country. About children sleeping and staying whole days in shelters, in basement instead of spending time in kindergartens and schools. Large part of the world has woken up. It is NOT politics. It is an UNJUSTIFIED military attack. It is a WAR. It is about HUMANITY. Have a good time wherever you live, without missiles flying over your head or in the direction of your house.

God bless you, sir. That convoy needs to go. I wish someone had the balls to do it.

If you are so immersed in the issue how come you are browsing around the Rolex Watch forum?
