Rolex....Nothing
But Rolex
Rolex
is the world's best known brand.
However,
the origin of its name and logo are difficult to determine.
Hans Wilsdorf, who founded the brand in 1908, wrote:-
"I
sought to create a name that would be easy to pronounce in
all European languages and that could easily and elegantly
grace the dial of a watch"
The logo
- a crown with five branches tipped with pearls - may possibly
be the five fingers of the hand, although this hypothesis
is not confirmed by Rolex archives.

BJSOnline Mission Statement
BJSOnline
hopes to be a pleasant visiting place for Rolex and Wristwatch
enthusiasts, we deal in quality and not quantity.
BJSOnline
is not an Authorized Rolex Agent, but we are more than merely
resellers. The service we provide to our clients contemplating
buying a Rolex Watch is as follows, and second to none:-
Firstly,
We specialize in Rolex Vintage Sports Watches, and serve International
Clients wanting to build up a Rolex Collection Portfolio as
a Long Term Investment. The Vintage Catalogue also provides
clients the opportunity of purchasing a Rolex Watch to start
a collection or enhance their collection.
Secondly,
The Pre-Used section provides clients the opportunity of purchasing
a Rolex watch in an excellent condition at a competitive price.
Last but
not least, The New Watches section provides clients the opportunity
of purchasing a Rolex watch which they have difficulty finding
at an Authorized Rolex Agent. We are not here to compete with
any Rolex Agents, and we will always advise that your first
choice when buying a brand new Rolex should be an Authorized
Rolex Agent. If your desired watch is not available due to
waiting lists then we will do our best to assist you.
We do take all major credit cards,
but due to a high level of credit card frauds on the net,
I will only accept credit cards from clients who are known
to me, or the client has provided the necessary references.
Please
Note: Most of the watches on offer are serviced by Rolex
UK. Servicing ensures complete dismantling of the watch by
highly skilled techninians, cleaning and inspecting the individual
parts of the movement, re-assembly, oiling, and timing.
BJSOnline
is not affiliated with Rolex Watch Company UK or Rolex International.
BJSOnline is an independent sales centre of wristwatches.
