Bidirectional Rotatable Bezel

The Yacht-Master’s bidirectional rotatable 60-minute graduated bezel is made entirely from precious metals or fitted with a Cerachrom insert in high-tech ceramic. The raised polished numerals and graduations stand out clearly against a matt, sand-blasted background. This functional bezel – which allows the wearer to calculate, for example, the sailing time between two buoys – is also a key component in the model’s distinctive visual identity.

Rolex watches at SHREVE & CO.

Like all Rolex Professional watches, the Yacht-Master 40 offers exceptional legibility in all circumstances, and especially in the dark, thanks to its Chromalight display. The broad hands and hour markers in simple shapes – triangles, circles, rectangles – are filled with a luminescent material emitting a long-lasting glow.

Rolex watches at SHREVE & CO.

Many Rolex watches are available with the now-legendary combination of yellow, white or Everose gold and steel known as Rolesor, but Rolesium is a creation specific to the Yacht-Master. While the case and bracelet are in rugged Oystersteel, the bezel of the Rolesium versions is made of platinum, imparting a silvery whiteness and vibrant luminosity for an unmistakable sense of luxury.

Rolex Watches: A Brief History

Founded in 1905 by Alfred Davis and Hans Wilsdorf, Rolex SA is a brand of luxury watches whose history of quality, luxury, and heritage is world-renowned. Headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, Rolex has produced over 1.05 million watches, generating over $13 billion in sales in 2022.

Rolex began as Wilsdorf and Davis in London, England, before moving its operations to Switzerland in 1919. Rolex’s long history of innovative designs has led to some of the most iconic watch models. Rolex is innovative, creating many modern conveniences that watch wearers may take for granted, like waterproof watches, automatic dates on the watch dial, and displaying both day and date on the dial.

Throughout its storied history, Rolex has established itself as a benchmark of excellence, with its watches sought after by those looking to own a piece of this legacy. Our collection of Rolex watches for sale allows enthusiasts and newcomers alike to be part of this prestigious tradition.

Rolex watches come in countless variations, and many of its most famous older models are sought-after by collectors worldwide.

Guide to Rolex Key Terms

Because they are complex pieces of machinery and elegance, luxury watches can sometimes be confusing - even for the most seasoned collectors. If you are new to luxury timepieces (and Rolex watches in particular), the following glossary of select terms can be helpful. With our extensive guide, finding the perfect Rolex for sale has never been easier.

Rolex Bracelet Terms

The following terms are standard when discussing Rolex watch bracelets and bands.

  • Argentinian bracelet: President bracelets made in Argentina with stylistic changes to the buckle
  • Hecho in Mexico: A stamp found on president bracelets made in Mexico
  • Integral: A discontinued, angular linked bracelet common among Oyster quartz models
  • Jubilee: More elegant link with three small center pieces
  • Oyster: A large center link bracelet mainly found on sport models
  • Pearlmaster: High-end watches with modified oyster bracelets in solid gold
  • President: A high-end watch bracelet with a shorter middle section than an oyster, only in solid gold
  • Strap: A leather strap with traditional Ardillon buckles

Rolex Clasp Terms

Rolex watch clasps come in several different versions that include the following:

  • Oysterlock clasp: Rolex's newest clasp is corrosion-resistant and blends engineering, smooth lines, and security to keep your watch where you want it — on your wrist.
  • Glidelock clasp: Similar to the Oysterlock clasp but much longer, the Glidelock clasp allows divers to expand the band. Wears can quickly adjust this watch to fit over thick diving suits.
  • Rolex buckle: The Rolex buckle is a classic staple of leather bands but is increasingly rare as more Rolex watches come with bracelets.
  • Oysterclasp: The Oysterclasp looks nearly identical to the Oysterlock clasp, but this clasp lacks the Oysterlock’s fold-over security lock. It secures most Classic watches, such as the Datejust and Oyster Perpetual models.
  • Hidden Crownclasp: The Rolex Hidden Crownclasp is an elegant addition to Rolex watches. Watch bracelets with this clasp look like an unbroken chain of steel or gold.

Testimonials

"I recently purchased my third Rolex from Wes at Bob's. As always, Wes was great to work with. The transaction was easy and seamless. Most importantly, my watch which was listed as "Light sings of wear on bracelet" looks brand new to me. I really could not see any signs of wear. I am thrilled with my new (2013) GMT Master. I can't imagine buying a used Rolex (you can't buy a new one if you are an average guy) from anyone else but Bob's. I highly recommend them and Wes."

Review originally published on Trustpilot

"First purchase of a Rolex, & an expensive watch. Did research & found Bob's Watches to be a reputable online option. Reps were helpful answering questions & providing assistance. I was having technical problems with online order & rep assisted over the phone. Required add'l prodding on my part to get order uploaded to my online acct, but it worked out. Watch band was supposed to be sized before shipment, that did not happen, but I was able to remove links, so it ended up also working out.Watch was in better condition than described, thrilled over the moon with purchase."

"This is my first time dealing with Bob's Watches. I've bought a lot of watches in my life and this is actually the first time I've bought a used timepiece. I can only say that I will be a customer for a long time! The process, professionalism and comfort were way beyond my expectations. From start to finish, it was a pleasure to deal with Bob's Watches on every level. I had my watch the day after I placed the order, which was also beyond my expectations. Great products, wonderful people!!"

Each testimonial echoes the satisfaction of customers who chose our exceptional used Rolex for sale.

Which New Rolex Models Will We See in 2024?

New models? New materials? New colors? These are the models that may be in store.

rolex gmt watch

By Johnny Brayson

Watches & Wonders 2024 is right around the corner, which means that Rolex will soon be unveiling its most exciting novelties for the year. Traditionally, the brand has been known for its conservatism and incremental changes. Rolex usually doesn’t take big swings. In past years, simply releasing a new dial color for the Submariner or a new size for the Explorer was enough to send hordes of enthusiasts to their nearest AD with hopes of getting put on a waiting list.

But that wasn’t the case in 2023. Rolex was full of surprises last year, rolling out a bunch of watches that quite literally no one saw coming. The “ Celebration Dial ” Oyster Perpetual with its colorful bubbles. The wild “Puzzle” Day-Date with its emojified date wheel. And, a few months after Watches & Wonders, the “Le Mans” Daytona with its custom movement and revival of the Paul Newman-style exotic dial.

After Rolex’s shocking and exciting 2023, it’s become clear that no one really knows what Rolex is going to release this year. But I can make my best guesses, based on the direction the brand is headed along with actual rumors floating around the aether. So with that in mind, here are five watches we could see from The Crown in 2024.

A “Coke” GMT-Master II

Out of all the hypothetical watches laid out in this article, this is the only one that has some tangible evidence to back it up. Just last month, a patent that Rolex had filed in 2022 came to light. And what was on that patent? Oh, just a description of a bi-color ceramic bezel in red and black.

The “Coke” bezel of course has a strong history within the GMT-Master II line. In fact, the original GM T-Master II that was released in 1982 had a Coke bezel, distinguishing it at the time from the “Pepsi” GMT-Master that would remain alongside it in production for several years. The Coke GMT was produced from 1989 — 2005, but only in an aluminum variant — we’ve never seen a Coke bezel in Rolex’s durable Cerachrom ceramic material. It certainly seems like Rolex is working on one, though, and hopefully, we’ll get to see it this year.

The Return of the Milgauss

Fans of quirky Rolex were disappointed last year when the Milgauss was unceremoniously discontinued. The watch, which originally debuted in 1956 as an anti-magnetic watch for scientists and engineers. In recent years, it also became known for its decidedly non-traditional style cues, including green-tinted sapphire glass and a lightning bolt-shaped seconds hand.

It may be too soon for Rolex to revive the Milgauss — it’s only been gone for a year, after all — but then again, maybe not. The Air-King was discontinued by Rolex in 2014 but was revived in 2016 using the same case and movement of that era’s Milgauss. The Air-King then got another makeover in 2022 with a new case, movement and dial, so if Rolex is in the recycling mood again, it could bring back the Milgauss using the Air-King’s case and movement.

But I would like to see a bit more innovation from Rolex when it comes to the scientist’s watch. Omega has massively upped the ante when it comes to anti-magnetic watches in recent years with its METAS-certified watches now being resistant to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss. (The Milgauss only ever claimed protection against 1,000 gauss, hence the name.) Even Tudor , Rolex’s sister brand, is now using METAS-certified movements with the same magnetic resistance, so I would hope Rolex can create a new highly anti-magnetic movement for the new Milgauss to make it the industry standard once again.

A Sea-Dweller in RLX Titanium

Last year, Rolex debuted the Yacht-Master 42 in RLX Titanium . The lightweight sports watch quickly became one of the hottest new Rolexes, and many are speculating that Rolex may give the titanium treatment to the Submariner this year. But I’m not so sure.

I think Rolex is more precious about the Sub and what it does with the collection compared to its less popular models, and a titanium Submariner just feels like too big a departure for the brand. But what does seem likely is a Sea-Dweller in RLX Titanium. As Rolex’s more serious dive watch, the Sea-Dweller makes a much better candidate for the ultra-light, technical material. Plus, the mega-souped-up version of the Sea-Dweller, the Deepsea Challenge , already exists in titanium.

Day-Dates with display casebacks

Another big surprise from Rolex — not emoji dial surprise-level, but still shocking — was the debut of sapphire display casebacks showing off the movements of certain Daytona models and its new dress watch , the 1908. Rolex had only ever released one watch with an exhibition caseback before, an obscure rectangular Cellini from the 2000s, so the new display casebacks were a big deal and brought Rolex more in line with the rest of the luxury watch industry, where sapphire casebacks showing off decorated movements are pretty standard.

So I’m thinking Rolex will expand its display caseback offerings in 2024, and the Day-Date seems the most likely candidate to get the upgrade. Like the 1908 and the platinum and white gold Daytonas that have already received display casebacks, the Day-Date is only available in precious metal, continuing the theme Rolex established last year. Of course, if Rolex does go this route while continuing to use the Calibre 3255 in the Day-Date, then it will have to tart up the rather utilitarian-looking movement.

A “Polar” Explorer

This last one would both be the easiest watch of these five for Rolex to create and the one that seems the least likely. All I want to see is a white dial on the regular Explorer, like the one that’s been available on the Explorer II for decades. There are no technological feats to tackle or new materials to master to accomplish this — Rolex knows how to make a white dial.

So why does it feel unlikely? Well, mainly because Rolex hasn’t done it yet. It’s not like they don’t know people want it and would love it, they just haven’t been in any rush to give it to us. But, here’s why I think there’s a slim chance we could finally get an Explorer I with a white dial.

In the past few years, Rolex has been paying a lot of attention to the Explorer, and even getting – dare I say it — experimental with its most basic watch. In 2021, we saw the release of the Explorer in two-tone Rolesor for the first time. Then, last year, Rolex expanded the line by adding a 40mm Explorer in steel alongside the existing 36mm watch, giving buyers the choice of two sizes of Explorer for the first time. So why not continue the product line’s expansion with a Polar dial?
