The Orphan Boy Who Created Rolex
***************************
Rolex is one of the most Luxury Brands in the World, valued today at around $8 Billion Dollars. Its history dates back a century ago and began with an orphan teenager whose inheritance was stolen away from him. After a few years of working his way out, he decided to follow his passion and opened a watchmaking business. Little did he know that this business venture would lead him to pioneer modern wristwatches, changing its whole industry and creating a Billion-Dollar Empire. This is the story of Hans Wilsdorf.
