Was your Rolex made in Switzerland?

Are Rolex watches really made in Switzerland?
Or have we all been sold a myth?
In this video, I dive deep into the factory floors of China,
where insiders claim that parts —
and even entire Rolex watches — are being produced.

You’ll see leaked footage from inside Shenzhen watch factories,
hear from whistleblowers, industry veterans,
and a fired watch expert who reveals how
the "Swiss Made" label has been misleading consumers for decades.

Did you get your fake "Swiss" (i.e. made in China) Donald Trump watch? I sure I remember you saying you were going to buy one last year.
