Rolex is a symbol of style and wealth, but it is also an investment for many people. For example, prices for a Rolex GMT Master II Ice start from $485,350. And did you know that Paul Newman’s ‘Exotic’ Rolex Daytona 6329 sold for 17.8 million dollars at an auction in 2017? Yes, many Rolex watches grow in value over time. Of course, it goes without saying that you need to take good care of the watch – especially if you plan on selling it later.
But what if you have a Rolex you want to sell? It’s an old, pre-owned timepiece that looks decent and works just fine. How much should you ask for it? This is the problem many Rolex owners have to face when they sell their watch. Finding the right price is not easy, but it’s not overly complicated either. Let’s see what you can do to get the correct price for your Rolex luxury watch.
Things That Influence the Value of a Rolex
The first thing you need to understand is that certain factors influence the price of a Rolex. Of course, a watch that is in pristine condition will command a higher price. Don’t worry, you can always get your watch overhauled and polished by our expert watchmakers in case it has a few scratches and some minor problems.
Of course, some models age better than others, so you can expect to sell them for a very good price. The problem is that you probably don’t know much about which models are popular. The good news is that a watchmaker can help you find the real value of your watch in no time.
Finding the Real Value of Your Timepiece
To get an estimate of how much your Rolex timepiece is worth, you can search on Google, look through dozens of ads and auction listings, and even ask your friends and family for more information. However, the foolproof way to find this information is to get your watch evaluated and appraised by a professional. Here is what you need to do:
- Find the box and all the paperwork. This is very important because it proves that the watch is not a fake. Make sure you don’t lose the guarantee card because, according to Rolex, “the Rolex guarantee card cannot be re-issued under any circumstances.”
- Get your watch to an experienced watchmaker for a polishing and an overhaul. This will ensure your watch looks nice and works perfectly.
- Bring your timepiece to our watch shop in NYC and get it evaluated and appraised by our experts. It won’t take long and you will find the real value of your Rolex luxury watch.
