The Rolex Datejust

Look at the generations and the value logic gets simple. 1945 set the format, the 1600s defined the 60s and 70s, the 16xxx caliber-3135 dominated the 80s and 90s, mid-2000s added the ladies 178xxx and 179xxx, and 2016 brought the current 126xxx with Syloxi hairsprings. Each era trades at its own level. Entry steel ladies to solid gold tops out the $3,539 to $32,200 range. Read the full Datejust buying guide ›

About Rolex

Hans Wilsdorf started this in 1905, and the Geneva manufacture has set the standard for mechanical watches ever since. Rolex pioneered waterproofing, self-winding movements, and the date display, building a name on precision and durability. The Oyster case, Perpetual movement, and Cyclops lens are known worldwide. Steel sport references like the Submariner, GMT-Master II, and Daytona trade above retail, so wire pricing puts real money back in your pocket. Browse all Rolex ›
