It should come as no surprise to you that a Rolex watch carries a hefty price tag with it and year after year the price continues to rise. This is due to the quality of the watches themselves and their beauty. If you are on a budget or looking for an affordable luxury watch option, you are not alone. Many people want to place a luxurious and timeless piece on their wrist, but it just may not fit their budget at that time. Fortunately, as more people sell pre-owned Rolex watches, the price to obtain one remains quite affordable for you.

Fortunately, not all of the Rolex brand watches have reached prices that are unattainable for the budget conscious, and this means that there are quite a few models out there that can be purchased for an affordable price. Let’s check them out now.

Rolex Date 1501

The Rolex Date 1501 is a smaller version of the Datejust, which is a popular Rolex model. This model is highly versatile and comes with a traditionally classic look that allows you to wear it for any occasion and with all attire. This watch features an engine-tuned bezel and the date display above the three o clock position on the watch face. Most all Date 1501 models are made from stainless steel; however, you may see a 14k version floating around.

Rolex Air-King 5500

The Air-King became a standalone model in the Rolex catalog in 1958 and was one of the favored watches by airmen in WWII. It comes with an affordable price tag and has minimal features, which keep it easy to use and not overwhelming for those who just want a watch that looks and feels nice on the wrist. What sets this model apart from others is that it does not feature chronometer-rated movement, thus landing it in the more affordable category.

Rolex Cellini 5115

The Rolex Cellini 5115 is considered to be a dress watch and is often overlooked very easily. This model has only been crafted in either solid platinum or solid gold. While it does not come with any water resistance features, it is uniquely, and refinery-styled to meet the needs of any professional. The watch case is thin and round and comes with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. While it is definitely not as modern as other options, it is a great classic option that is simple yet dazzling.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual 1002

Dubbed an introduction collection to the brand, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 1002 is a minimalist watch for those who want a watch but do not need all the additional features. The watch does feature a waterproof case and comes with self-winding movement.
