SPARE ROLEX BOXES for sale ! Most between £75 and £120 . . .

We have a surplus of this type of Rolex boxes, which were supplied with new Rolex watches from around 2004-2014.

SMALL and MEDIUM sizes are available, usually referred to as ref 30.00.xx, 39137.xx or “Samoa” and ref 31.00.xx, 39139.xx or “Moorea” respectively.

Boxes from c.2004-2010 came with a solid, oval watch cushion that was not well suited to ladies’ watches with short bracelets.

Boxes from c.2010-2014 came with a squashy “E”-shape cushion that would hold most watches comfortably.

Each box or set will be priced individually to reflect condition, completeness etc and sold as it is.

We will not swap parts from one box or set to another.

Rolex main agents often grabbed the first box that came to hand when selling a watch, but steel watches were commonly intended to come in smaller boxes / bicolour watches in medium.

Available currently ONLY at Miltons in St.John’s Centre, Liverpool.

GREAT VALUE ! Stainless steel Rolex Date Submariner model 16610 with black bezel insert and “SWISS MADE” dial on Oyster Fliplock 93150 bracelet. This A73xxxx case number watch from around 1999 is in very pleasing condition, although we do note some very minor marks to the bezel. It comes with Submariner booklet, later Rolex boxes, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. The larger, NEW equivalent is now £9,500 (if you can find one….) but the earlier models have proved increasingly popular in their own right. Available from Miltons of 36 Borough Pavement, Birkenhead Pyramids. Those interested in Rolex trivia may like to note that this watch’s case number suggests it was made in the same batch of 16610s from which a small number of special “Panama Canal” watches were drawn. Those Submariners (and, for the avoidance of doubt, NOT this specific watch) bore dials commissioned with a unique Panama Canal insignia in place of the usual text in the lower half and were then presented to the Canal pilots, to celebrate its passing from the United States of America to Panama.

FANTASTIC VALUE ! Stainless steel Rolex Submariner non-date model 14060M with black “two-line” dial and bezel insert on Oyster Fliplock 93150 bracelet. This 2001 model is one of the earliest 14060s with the “M” suffix, denoting the presence of the 3130 calibre movement, but not yet marked as a chronometer on the dial. It is in very good order with only moderate signs of age and wear to the bezel insert. The glass is generic (not by Rolex), but does appear to be a high quality part. Comes with Rolex boxes, Submariner booklet, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. The new, fatter, ceramic bezel version now has an RRP of £8,450 but these earlier models have an appeal and market of their own. Available from Miltons of Church Street, Liverpool city centre.

Stainless steel Rolex Date Submariner model 16610 with black bezel insert and “SWISS-T<25” dial on Oyster Fliplock 93150 bracelet. Comes with Rolex boxes, Oyster booklet and UK Rolex papers which are undated, although we can date the watch to around 1995. It has just had a genuine, new Rolex bezel insert fitted and is in very pleasing condition, but we do note moderate signs of age / wear, signs of repair to the Fliplock rivet and that the glass fitted is generic, not by Rolex — all factors reflected in this keen price. The larger, NEW equivalent is now £9,500 (if you can find one….) but the earlier models have proved increasingly popular in their own right.

It is in very pleasing condition, but we do note some signs of age / wear, both factors reflected in this keen price.

A British Army helicopter pilot’s watch : vintage Rolex 1680 Submariner Date with Mark 2 dial, box & papers! Stainless steel Rolex Submariner Date model 1680 with 6152xxx case number, its original dial being in simply outstanding condition. First purchased by Captain “P” in Singapore during December 1980, this watch retains its original punched papers, plastic document wallet bearing a sticker with the watch’s faded case number on it, YOUR ROLEX OYSTER booklet with 1980 print-code, Rolex 68.00.2 box with slotted card interior and “Création Genève” motif inside the lid, a Rolex UK service card dated June 2002 and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. In early 2014 the watch was taken to a Rolex main agent who knew to direct the watch to us, and Miltons (Liverpool) Ltd bought it in February 2014. It lived thereafter unworn in our safes until April 2023 when we sent it to Steven Hale Watch Restoration Limited, a fully accredited Rolex watch-maker and one of the UK’s leading vintage specialists. The watch enjoyed £1,536 worth of work including a full movement service and the fitting of new glass, auto-drive wheel, rotor axle, reversers and barrel, while the paint on the hands was also restored. The black bezel insert was replaced previously and has what we believe to be a Luminova variant “pip.” The Oyster Fliplock 93150 bracelet with 501 B end-links has a “PJ11″ clasp code, indicating that this, too, is a replacement part from Rolex, probably not fitted earlier than 2009. The watch has a Rolex 1575 calibre movement, the bridge marked 1570 as normal, its unique movement number D856389 shown in the photo-essay linked below. The movement is running well, testing within chronometer tolerance in September 2023, although this will vary slightly depending on the individual wearer. Its case, bracelet and crown are in very good condition but we have not refinished them, allowing them to keep the character reflecting the working life the watch has led, serving Captain P as a military pilot and then with his own helicopter charter company. The case numbering is crisp and clear, the bezel insert is excellent and the bezel rim is very good. A photo-essay of this watch with many more photographs is available by clicking here .

Please note that while we have successfully tested water resistance for normal use including recreational swimming etc, we would advise that more extensive pressure testing be carried out before any significant underwater diving is considered. Many collectors of such vintage Rolex where the dial is a key part of the value wisely choose NOT to swim in them, as a simple mistake in securing the crown or any subsequent and unrecognised deterioration in sealing could see water enter the case, damage the dial and destroy significant value. If you want to emulate Captain “P” and take it up in your helicopter, go for it !

It comes with both Rolex boxes, Submariner booklet, numbered green swing-tag and UK warranty card from Ernest Jones at the Bullring in Birmingham dated April 2010. The larger, NEW equivalent with ceramic bezel is now £9,500 (if you can find one!), but the earlier models have proved increasingly popular in their own right. Available from Miltons of Chester, under the famous clock.

Vintage Submariner, FRESH FROM SPECIALIST ROLEX SERVICE by Steven Hale Watch Restoration Ltd. Stainless steel Rolex Submariner model 5513 manufactured around 1984 with 8673xxx case number. The watch features a “SWISS-T<25” tritium dial with white metal surrounds to the hour markers. These dials were introduced on new watches around the time this watch was made, but then also used as service replacement dials for any 5513s which needed them. Codes inside the case-back suggest that this watch was serviced by Rolex UK in Summer 1989 and early 1996. Miltons (Liverpool) Ltd bought the watch in January 2017 and in Summer 2023 sent it to Stephen Hale, a fully accredited Rolex watch-maker and one of the UK’s leading vintage specialists. The watch enjoyed £1,500 worth of work including a full service and the fitting of new tube gaskets, plexi glass, 4th wheel, auto-drive, rotor axle and black bezel insert (with what we believe to be a Luminova variant “pip”), while the luminous material on the hands was also restored. The Oyster Fliplock 93150 bracelet with 580 end-links has an “S X11” clasp code, suggesting that is a replacement service part that was fitted around the millennium. The rest of the bracelet shows some signs of age and wear, but this generation of Oysters was substantial and it has many years of reasonable wear left. It has a Rolex 1520 calibre movement which is running very well after service, although it will vary slightly depending on the individual wearer. Its new glass and bezel insert are of course in perfect condition having just been replaced. The case, crown and bezel rim are in very good condition, while the case numbering is crisp and clear. Comes with period-correct Rolex 67.00.08 box-set and 1987 English Submariner instruction booklet (themselves being accessories of some value!), our own warranty card, a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them and a copy of the invoice from SHWR listing all work carried out. A photo-essay of this watch with many more photographs is available by clicking here.

Please note that while the watch has just been restored to Rolex standards and we have ourselves successfully tested water resistance for normal use including recreational swimming etc, our default position with such vintage pieces is to advise that more extensive pressure testing be carried out before any significant underwater diving is considered. Many collectors of such vintage Rolex where the dial is a key part of the value wisely choose NOT to swim in them, as a simple mistake in securing the crown or any subsequent and unrecognised deterioration in sealing could see water enter the case, damage the dial and destroy significant value.

Comes with original Rolex 16613 boxes, Submariner booklet, numbered green swing-tag and UK papers from The Jewellers and Silversmiths Co Ltd in Surrey dated August 1995. This watch is in very pleasing condition, but we do note some signs of age / wear and that the glass fitted is generic, not by Rolex, both factors reflected in this keen price. Some of our watch team are rather excited about what they call the hint of cardinal blue they can see in the dial on this watch – it has mellowed with age and in some lights can display a pleasant, purplish hue.

Extraordinary opportunity to buy an UNWORN example of this discontinued model from 2008, still in delivery stickers! A superb “four-line” Rolex Submariner with box, UK warranty card etc ! Stainless steel Rolex non-date Submariner model 14060M with black dial and bezel insert on Oyster Fliplock 93150 bracelet. This M-case number watch with four-line “SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED” text and numbered inner rehaut is one of the later examples of what has in recent years become an extremely desirable model. Earlier versions did not feature the additional SCOC text on the dial. It is in mint condition and comes with Rolex boxes, Submariner booklet, both swing-tags and UK warranty card from John Pass the Jeweller dated June 2008. It seems that the market increasingly appreciates the proportions and value of this generation of Rolex sports models. We are selling it at a significant premium to the list price of the fatter, new equivalent which is now £8,450 — if only you could find one. This watch attracts collector interest in its unworn, stickered state. Please note that removing the stickers and / or wearing it may reduce its value somewhat.

GENUINE ROLEX service / storage / travel pouch with folding press-stud flap and simple green watch-holder insert. Each is approx 12cm x 6.5cm when closed and is suitable for holding a single example of most models in the Rolex range.

They are pre-owned, but many have simply been in our stores since they came with a watch from Rolex. The price quoted is for a single pouch and we anticipate having a small number available from which clients may choose.
