The Rolex Datejust

Start with the 36mm and most buyers stop there. It's the iconic unisex benchmark, with 26mm and 31mm below for smaller wrists and 41mm above for a sportier feel. From Oystersteel to solid gold, every tier carries a meaningful step. Current 126xxx pieces move with good liquidity; vintage refs reward originality. Box and papers matter for value. The full arc runs $3,539 to $32,200. Read the full Datejust buying guide ›

About Rolex

Demand has outrun supply on these for years, and that's the whole story for a buyer. Wilsdorf founded Rolex in 1905, and the Geneva house earned its standing on waterproofing, automatics, and date displays. Precision and durability made the name; the market made it an asset class. Steel sports references sell over retail every day, so dealer-direct pricing and a wire payment keep your fair trade-level number where it belongs. Browse all Rolex ›
