Is an AP a Rolex?

1 Answer
Is an AP a Rolex?
No, an AP is not a Rolex. The watches come from entirely distinct luxury watchmakers based in Switzerland. Hans Wilsdorf and Alfred Davis founded Rolex in 1905, while Audemars Piguet's history dates back to 1875, when Jules Louis Audemars and Edward Auguste Piguet founded the company.
