Rolex now profits from retail through its ownership of Bucherer (well, Rolex is a non-profit but that's another topic of discussion). And, the brand can now plausibly claim significant financial damages since sale of modified pre-owned "iced out" watches arguably reduce sales through Rolex's own. official, Certified Pre-Owned Program.
