Rolex waiting lists 200-times longer than Patek Philippe’s and even royal family can’t jump the queue

Waiting lists for Rolex watches are capped at 4,000 people for some models, according to one of the world’s largest authorised dealers, Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons in the United Arab Emirates, but at the same time, they have only 20-30 people on lists for Patek Philippe’s far rarer timepieces.
