Thanks for doing this series! This channel and your website have made me want to learn more, and more, about Rolex Watches. My Dad collected and wore many fake Rolex watches before he passed. I think my desire for one started there. This was a good lesson on the quartz movement. Thanks again!!!

100% Underrated Jewel from Rolex, love it!!!

Couldn't agree more!

I’m all over ur guys website and I watch every video literally as a connoisseur of timepieces I love the informative reviews and if I ever wanted to get rid of a watch which I do and get another which I do and have found one I love on ur website how do I do so?

Thank You so much! I knew Rolex had made some Quartz Watches but didn’t know much about them! Thank You for Your Videos!

That’s gonna be one I would chase. The _only_ Rolex, just because it’s a quartz crisis watch.

Always wondered about these day dstes

"The Rolex Datejust is an absolute classic, but when you bring diamonds into the equation, and it is not from a source like us that promises 100% genuine Rolex timepieces, "authentic" and "genuine Rolex" can mean very different things. Just because something is made with authentic diamonds does not mean that is makes your watch worth more. There is a big difference between diamonds set by Rolex at the factory and diamonds added to a watch later after it was originally sold. The first step you should take is verifying that the watch and bezel are both genuine to the manufacturer: aka made by Rolex. If the bezel is custom/aftermarket/etc. it is not made by Rolex, and even if the diamonds are genuine, it is NOT a genuine Rolex component. We wrote about this very topic on our blog - feel free to read up on the subject (link below), and ask us any necessary questions! www.bobswatches.com/rolex-blog/resources/adding-diamonds-luxury-watch-value.html

Thank you!

Surprised chrono is filled with these. Given the amount. Made

I wish the camera was zoomed in more so we could make out the details better.

8k 4 years ago. pre covid times were wild.

How many links can you remove? Smallest wrist size possible?

My favourite Rolex tbh

I found one at a youth ranch for 4$ and it has glow in the dark features. The band is different but still has the Rolex symbol on the spring bar It's gold and silver.

Hi guys in your opinion what would you do, I have a 1996, mint, diamond dial, bi-mental Rolex Oysterquartz just fully serviced by Rolex with box and papers. My question is would you keep it as it may go up in value over the next few years or get rid and use the money towards something else? No worries if you can’t answer this but would massively appreciate it if there was a response.

It's already going up it's litterally doubled in the last couple years

Goodness is that how they wrap the watch with the clasps touching the backcase without any protection in between?? Thats no way to pack a watch...

For a moment I thought Harry Kane is taking up watch collection as a hobby...

Filling my form 👍

Thanks for checking out the website and channel!

Bob, I have 2 of these S/S and Au. But I am pretty sure they are fakes. They take batteries. Rolex never made ones that take Renata 395 batteries? thx

Rolex is Rolex, but the truth is I for a quartz watch does not matter the brand I would only say thank you.

I just picked up a day date for $5 that’s ticking and had a battery. It’s gotta be fake... right?

The problem is that the majority of the market segment buying luxury watches does so because it's a status symbol. The full second tick is so closely associated with being fake that it poisons the perceived value as a status symbol. Anyone with an eye can see this is a solid gold case and you'd need to look no further. But you couldn't sell this for 50 bucks on a Detroit basketball court. The market for this watch is very limited, moreso than the already limited market for luxury watches in general.

There is the collector marked, that buy for other reasons. This is a you know if you know watch.

I have owned three Rolex watches, a Datejust, a President, and a fine ladies formal. Each had a Rolex movement. We were proud to own them and share the Rolex story with friends. When the quartz version came out, I was horrified that Rolex would cheapen their previously impeccable reputation and place their name on a computer (it's not a 'watch') and sell it as a rolex. It was laughable then, and still is today. A Quartz is not a movement, it has no craftsmenship, no history, just a chip a couple of gears, and a battery. That is not what Rolex is about. They soon discovered that the public turned their back on this fake, and stopped making them. We, on the other hand, have passed our Rolex watches to others family members, the next generation will continue to enjoy them. In my view, Rolex should have bought them all back and run them through a grinder!
