How it works

More about Vintage Rolex Watches

Vintage Rolex watches tell a story that a new watch cannot. Faded bezels, patinated lume and original dials give each piece its own character, and many vintage references are now highly collectable in their own right.

What Makes a Rolex Vintage?

Collectors generally consider Rolex watches from before the late 1980s as vintage, including models with acrylic crystals, gilt dials or tritium lume. Watches from the 1990s and early 2000s are often described as neo-vintage.

Our Approach to Vintage

Originality matters. Our watchmakers service vintage watches with care, preserving original dials, hands and bezels wherever possible, and we clearly state if any part has been replaced or if a case has been polished.

Is a Vintage Rolex Reliable Enough to Wear Daily?

Once serviced, yes. We still recommend avoiding swimming with older watches, and we state the water resistance on each listing.

Do Vintage Watches Come With a Warranty?

Yes. Every vintage Rolex carries our 3-year warranty.
