How Much Do Rolex Watches Cost?
The price of a Rolex can vary significantly based on various factors, including the model, materials, and market demand. Here's a detailed look at how much Rolex watches cost on the retail and secondary market:
Retail Prices
Entry-level Rolex models, such as the Oyster Perpetual, start at around $5,500 for men's versions and $2,300 for women's models. The Submariner, a popular choice known for its robust construction and diving capabilities, begins at approximately $9,100. The Daytona, famous for its chronograph functions, ranges from $15,100 to $75,000, depending on the model. High-end timepieces, such as models in the Day-Date, Datejust, GMT-Master, and Pearlmaster collections can exceed well over $50,000.
Secondary Market Prices
Due to high demand and limited supply, with Rolex producing approximately one million watches each year, many models are challenging to purchase directly from authorized dealers, often resulting in waitlists of two to three years or more. Consequently, the secondary market for Rolex watches is thriving, with an average trade value of 19.6% over retail as of July 2024, despite experiencing a slight price decline quarter-over-quarter.
Certain entry-level Rolex models, such as the Oyster Perpetual and Explorer, can be acquired for under $3,000 and $5,000, respectively. If you’re willing to spend between $6,000 and $10,000, you'll find more options, including the Explorer II, Datejust, Yacht-Master, and some Submariners.
Highly sought-after models, such as the Daytona and Submariner, typically sell for more on the secondary market than at retail. Interestingly, certain high-end models like the Day-Date often cost around the same or even less than their retail price on the secondary market.
Why Choose a Pre-Owned Rolex?
Rolex watches are renowned for their exceptional craftsmanship, timeless design, and enduring value. Opting for a pre-owned, fully authenticated, Rolex allows you to enjoy these prestigious timepieces without a years-long waitlist. At Bezel, our in-house team of expert specialists personally authenticate each Rolex watch we sell, guaranteeing the authenticity of your purchase and giving you complete peace of mind.
