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.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
