Mao Zedong’s and Zhou Enlai’s Rolex
Mao Zedong’s and Zhou Enlai’s Rolex
Chairman Mao’s and Premier Zhou’s Rolex from WatchesEstore.com
This photo is not just an ordinary picture of Rolex, but the gift from Swiss and Arabian guests for Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, the two top leaders in China at that time when they visited China.
From the photo, we can tell the Rolex watch sent by Switzerland is quite special, obviously made by ordering. The fact that the calendar plate shows Chinese characters instead of Arabic numbers shows Switzerland’s well-intentioned. Besides, the design and texture of pure gold are not too prominent here, for Rolex is also a top watch brand of the world with thousands of celebrities wearing it. However, few people can place order to Rolex watch factory. It can be concluded that even though the gold Rolex with Chinese characters is not the only one around the world, at least it is extremely rare. There will be very difficult to find an imitative “Chairman Rolex” as same as the authentic one. Let alone to own this “Chairman Rolex”, the number of people who have actually seen them is very little.

Minute Repeater Watch—Big Star in the Salesroom
Minute Repeater Watch—Big Star in the Salesroom
The movement inside a minute repeater watch, from watchesestore.com
If you ever pay attention to the world’s three largest auction houses’ public sale of watches, you will notice that the transaction records of antique minute repeater pocket watches aren’t very high, even though it is from a watch making big name like Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin, which usually can be bought at about under a quarter of one million Hong Kong dollars. But when it comes to a minute repeater wrist watch, the number writes on the price tag either in an exclusive store or in a Dutch auction generally well exceeds three million RMB. Why there will be such huge price difference between a modern minute repeater wrist watch and a pendant watch? It is because the size of a wrist watch is much smaller. Compared with processing a minute repeater movement for a pocket watch, to process one for a minute repeater wrist watch is far more difficult, for the precision of crafts, including the original design, polishing, assembling, test and the like involve much complicated work. Besides, a minute repeater wrist watch also means very few capable
manufacturers, very few craftsmen who master the techniques necessary for making one such watch and very few production output.
