Didn’t they just get Carl F. Bucherer when they acquired the Bucherer outlets?

We’ve got a winner. Answer is three: Rolex, Tudor, and now Carl Bucherer! Most people voted two which is what I suspected would happen.

Hmmmm sure? From the Rolex website:
To preserve the long-standing partnership between the two companies and perpetuate their shared history, Rolex has decided to acquire Bucherer. The watch retailer will keep its name and continue to operate independently. Its integration into the Rolex group will be effective once the competition authorities have approved the takeover transaction.
Your question was …owned and operated. They do own it but the operation is independent. So I think we 2ers win hahaha 😎 big up the 2ers 😂

Wait. Does that acquisition mean Rolex owns Tourneau also?

I know, the question says: watch brands. And the watches are the movements, that's why I counted it.
