After the rumor that recently spread on the Swiss business platform "Bilanz" reporting that Rolex is discontinuing Carl F. Bucherer, which operates under the Hans Wilsdorf Foundation, the owner of Rolex, Tudor, and Bucherer. This decision follows Rolex's 2023 acquisition of the entire Bucherer Group, fueling speculation that it marks the end of a brand with a 137-year legacy, you can know more here.
