A watch brand landed at No. 216.

Rolex is the most valuable watch or jewelry brand in the world, according to a new report from Brand Finance.

The watch brand landed at No. 216 on the brand valuation consulting firm’s Global 500 2017 list. That was up from No. 232 in 2016.

Other jewelry or watch brands that made the list:

Cartier, No. 224.
Chow Tai Fook, No. 333.
Tiffany &Co., No. 404.

Google was deemed to be the most valuable brand overall, followed by Apple, Amazon.com, AT&T and Microsoft.

Jewelers have their own take on the “most valuable” brands.

In last year’s Big Survey, INSTORE readers crowned Gabriel & Co as their best-performing brand-name jewelry line. Pandora came in second and Stuller third.

But more INSTORE readers did say they’d like to add Rolex to their cases than any other jewelry or watch brand. TAG Heuer and David Yurman rounded out the top three most wished-for brands.

Time to Do What You've Always Wanted? Time to Call Wilkerson.

It was time. Teri Allen and her brother, Nick Pavlich, Jr., had been at the helm of Dearborn Jewelers of Plymouth in Plymouth, Mich., for decades. Their father, Nick Pavlich, Sr., had founded the store in 1950, but after so many wonderful years helping families around Michigan celebrate their most important moments, it was time to get some “moments” of their own. Teri says Wilkerson was the logical choice to run their retirement sale. “They’re the only company that specializes in closing jewelry stores,” she says. During the sale, Teri says a highlight was seeing so many generations of customers who wanted to buy “that one last piece of jewelry from us.” Would she recommend Wilkerson? Absolutely. “There is no way that I would have been able to do this by myself.”
