I guess you've been into watches for less than a year, so I'll make it short for you.
Rolex pretty much invented modern sports/tool watches in a matter of 3 years in the 50s.
>1952 : Explorer
>1953 : Submariner
>1954 : GMT Master
The design language, the proportions, the overall design... Everything you know (design-wise) about tool watches basically come from these 3. Not only that, but Rolex also benefited from their own previous innovations : waterproof case and self winding movement in particular.
There's a reason why Rolex is Rolex. They revolutionized watch making in just a few years and were smart enough to market their products in a sexy way.

It always amuses me when newfags try to shit on Rolex. Like, what's even the point? 99% of the specs of their shitters were thought out by Rolex engineers decades ago.

I feel the trend died down with the Seiko modding scene and the death of the SKX, but for many lume was the most important aspect of a watch. Just the fact that every watch video has to show the lume and the word "lumeshot" exists shows how important it is for a vocal minority. It also has to do with fanbases. Seiko fanboys claimed Seiko had the best lume in the industry so it was something they took a lot of pride in. Every brand has their thing whether it's exclusivity, value, features, design, history, etc.., that people claim matters most.

I'd much rather get a PRX than one of those sharp edge seikos. Seiko hasn't been good value since they discontinued the classic SARBs.

Throw in the fact that they have cellular now, Bluetooth, etc. You could completely ditch your phone and function a whole day with just your Apple Watch w/ cell and some AirPods. Hell you can even order your shitty Starbucks with apply pay. Not to mention the health stuff.

>Rolex barely spends anything on advertising and marketing.
lol, right. Formula 1 plasters Rolex all over their races out of their generous spirit.

If you don't see Rolex marketing all over the place, you're probably only consuming media for poor people who can't afford Rolexes so there's no need to market to them.
