Comes with Rolex boxes, GMT-Master II booklet and UK warranty card from Aurum Group (Goldsmiths etc) dated October 2008. In very good condition with only superficial signs of age / wear to the bezel and insert. This model was always one of the most popular but following its discontinuation values have soared. We are offering it at a premium to the NEW RRP of a current model…but good luck sourcing one of those!

£4,999 Stock number: 52-40-019Vintage 26mm Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust in 18ct yellow gold, model 6916 with smart, silvery-gold colour / diamond dot dial on Jubilee 6251 bracelet. This late 1970s model is in very pleasing condition. It comes with later boxes and Your Rolex Oyster booklet, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. The watch has been fitted with a synthetic sapphire glass that is not by Rolex, to update the older and more easily marked acrylic glass. We don’t as a rule approve of such work, but this appears to have been very well executed, it modernises the watch and tests well for water-resistance. The bracelet shows some signs of its age, but with sensible wear it should have plenty of life in it yet. When one needs to change the date on this 2030-series calibre model, one simply advances the main hands forwards or backwards past midnight. The nearest NEW equivalent is now £23,600!
£9,699 Stock number: 52-60-021Desirable “four-line” Rolex Submariner with box, warranty card etc. Stainless steel Rolex non-date Submariner model 14060M with black dial and bezel insert on Oyster Fliplock 93150 bracelet. This G-series watch with four-line “SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED” text and numbered inner rehaut is one of the very last 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 excellent condition, having been serviced by Rolex UK in 2019 when a new glass was also fitted. Comes with Rolex boxes, Submariner booklet, numbered green swing-tag, international Rolex warranty card dated March 2013 and Rolex UK service card dated April 2019. It seems that today’s 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 £7,700 — if only you could find one.

£5,399 Stock number: 52-60-02426mm bicolour Rolex Datejust model 79173 with very popular “vignette” graduated red / diamond dot dial on Jubilee 62523 bracelet. Comes with Rolex boxes, Datejust booklet, a Rolex UK service card dated August 2013, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. The dial is of a style slightly older than the watch and was probably fitted retrospectively at client request. This year 2000 model is in very pleasing condition but we do note wear to the bracelet, reflected in the price. The NEW equivalent is now £10,550!
£12,499 Stock number: 50-60-01236mm Rolex Day-Date model 18238 in 18ct yellow gold on President 8385 bracelet with classic champagne / baton dial.

It is in very good condition but we do note that the glass is a generic replacement, not by Rolex. The 18238 with its 3155 calibre movement was the first model to feature the double quick-set feature for easy, independent alteration of the Day and Date. The NEW equivalent is now £29,500!

£2,399 Stock number: 10-53-094Gent’s bicolour Cartier Santos automatic bracelet watch, case reference 2319 with silver / roman numeral dial. In very good condition, it comes with Cartier box, instruction book, our own warrany card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. Please note (1) this is NOT sold as a water-proof watch (2) such Cartiers are essentially very stylish DRESS watches; the automatic movements inside them are rarely perfect time-keepers and can seem noisy when the self-winding rotor turns (3) we would normally advise that anything between – 10 to + 15 seconds per day should be expected on these models, even after a service. The nearest new equivalent is now £8,900 !

This random case number watch with four-line “SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED” text and numbered inner rehaut is one of the very last 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 excellent condition with only moderate signs of wear and comes with Rolex boxes, Submariner booklet, both swing-tags and international Rolex warranty card dated March 2014. That is some two years after the subsequent model had been introduced! It seems that today’s market increasingly appreciates the proportions and value of this generation of Rolex sports models.

Dating from around 1981, this watch is in very pleasing condition. Unusually, it has been fitted with a synthetic sapphire glass that is not by Rolex, to update the older and more easily marked acrylic glass. We don’t as a rule approve of such work, but this appears to have been very well executed, it modernises the watch and tests well for water-resistance (as always, provided the crown is screwed down). Comes with a later Rolex box, Oyster booklet, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. This model correctly has the 2000-series calibre Rolex movement with no “quick-set” facility for changing the date at the end of a short month.

This enormous watch was designed for professional divers, though many have been bought by those simply wishing to own one of the biggest or most over-engineered Rolexes ever made. In very good condition with only superficial wear to the glass and bezel. It has both boxes, DeepSea booklet, red swing-tag and UK warranty card from David M. Robinson dated July 2011.

Clearly if you can find a new one at RRP then you should buy it – we wish we could!

Comes with Rolex boxes, Datejust booklet and UK papers from Mappin & Webb Group / Watches of Switzerland in Birmingham dated December 2005. A great-looking watch but we do note that a generic glass (NOT by Rolex) has been fitted. The bracelet also shows some wear. We feel it would be sensible to give it a gentler life from this point and recommend that this watch should be saved for dress wear only — and have priced it accordingly.

£6,199 Stock number: 52-60-003UNWORN November 2022 watch, suitable for a lady or gentleman!

In mint condition, it comes with both boxes, Oyster Perpetual booklet, both swing-tags and international Rolex warranty card dated November 2022.

Comes with original boxes, a SeaDweller 4000 booklet, green swing-tag and international Rolex warranty card from the famous jeweller Wempe dated July 2018. The 43mm model, launched after 50 years of the Sea-Dweller line (hence the SD43 / SD50 names variously given to it by fans), is one of many steel Professional models that are extremely difficult to source at the moment, so we had to pay and are in turn selling it at a premium to the NEW list price. The NEW RRP is £11,150 and clearly if you could obtain one for that price then you should. Good luck!

£2,499 Stock number: 60-54-014Classic manual-wind Rolex Oyster from the late 1960s! Stainless steel Rolex Oyster Precision model 6426 with popular matt black / baton dial. This circa-1967 watch appears to have been up-graded with a new Oyster 78350 bracelet fitted around 1993, which would be consistent with a Rolex UK service denoted inside the case-back. It is in very pleasing condition, showing few signs of its age. The Oyster Precision is an entry-level model and it should be noted that (1) it needs to be manually wound each day and (2) we no longer guarantee these older, plastic glass models to be water-resistant. Comes with our own presentation box, warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. Ask for one of our Rolex-trained specialists Phil or Paul to speak with you about older Rolexes, to show you how to unscrew the crown, set the time, wind it manually and explain why a manual-wind model will rarely be as accurate as an automatic.

£2,099 Stock number: 82-56-010Gent’s OMEGA Seamaster Professional 300m quartz bracelet watch, model 2541.80.00 with blue dial and bezel insert. Always popular, these Seamasters offer a lot of watch for the money when compared with similar Rolex models – and have themselves continued to increase in value for many years. This one is in excellent condition for its age, showing only light general wear. It comes with Omega boxes, instruction book, specification sheet and undated Omega warranty cards from David M. Robinson. Its case number suggests that it was manufactured around 1998 but the previous owner had a DMR receipt for it dated April 2005.

Ask for our specialist watch team to discuss this watch with you. This recently launched and unexpected version of the 43mm model (whoever thought a bicolour model was coming?) is one of many in the Professional series that can be difficult to source at the moment. It is in immaculate condition but for some superficial marks to the case-back, reflected in the price.

£7,699 Stock number: 52-57-04031mm / mid-size stainless steel Rolex Datejust model 178274 with striking black / diamond dot dial on Jubilee 63160 bracelet. While the dial is original, the watch has also been fitted previously with a custom-made diamond-set bezel which is NOT by Rolex. As loyal devotees to the Rolex brand we are not great fans of customised pieces and will not supply such individual parts on customer request, but when our pawnbroking departments are left with one already fitted like this there always seems to be a queue of buyers! Comes with Rolex boxes, Datejust booklet, numbered white swing-tag and international warranty card dated June 2020. The nearest NEW equivalent (with just a fluted white metal bezel) now has an RRP of £8,550 — but availability of most stainless steel models is currently very poor, keeping residual prices stronger than ever.

£4,199 Stock number: 52-57-008Lovely vintage set! 36mm stainless steel Rolex Datejust model 16030 with bright white / baton dial on Jubilee 62510 bracelet. Comes with its Rolex 16030-stickered box set, UK papers from John Pass Jewellers in Crewe dated June 1986 in plastic pouch (with corresponding, numbered sticker) and a Rolex UK service slip dated July 2001. The watch is in very pleasing condition and appears to have had a new bracelet fitted, perhaps at the time of that Rolex service. Unusually, this watch has been fitted with a synthetic sapphire glass that is not by Rolex, to update the older and more easily marked acrylic glass. We don’t as a rule approve of such work, but this appears to have been very well executed, it modernises the watch and tests well for water-resistance (as always, provided the crown is screwed down).

These papers are dated February 2007, but the watch’s P68xxxx case number suggests it is from around 2001. It had probably been in stock at Bucherer for some years, as the lady’s Yachtmaster was at that time something of a slow seller.

In excellent condition with only superficial wear to the glass, it comes with both boxes, Explorer booklet, green swing-tag and UK warranty card from Aurum Group (Goldsmiths etc) dated July 2016.

£3,999 Stock number: 50-57-00431mm / mid-size stainless steel Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust model 78240 with silver / baton dial on Oyster 78350 bracelet. When we sold this watch previously it still had its original accessories including UK papers from Goldsmiths dated May 2002 and a Rolex UK service card from July 2009, but these were no longer with it when the watch was recently traded back in with us. In very pleasing condition, it now comes with a later Rolex box, Oyster booklet, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. The NEW equivalent is now £5,750 (if you can find one!) and sourcing good, pre-owned mid-size examples like this never seems to get any easier.
£5,899 Stock number: 52-57-04436mm stainless steel Rolex Datejust model 116200 with smart white / Roman numeral dial on Oyster 72200 bracelet. In excellent condition, it comes with both boxes, Datejust booklet, numbered green swing-tag and UK warranty card from Ernest Jones in Solihull dated November 2007. The NEW equivalent is now £6,100 but supply is not meeting demand at the moment and residual prices have rarely been stronger. Please ask one of our watch team to demonstrate the fold-out “comfort-link” on this model’s bracelet.

£8,599 Stock number: 52-57-035Bicolour Rolex Date Submariner model 16613 with blue dial and bezel insert on Oyster Fliplock 93153 bracelet. This 1989 model comes with modern Rolex boxes, an Oyster booklet, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. This watch is in very presentable condition (a new bezel insert just fitted), 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 cardinal blue dial on this watch – it has mellowed with age and in some lights can display a pleasant, purplish hue. The NEW equivalent is now £12,350 !

£4,999 Stock number: 52-56-009A little flowery fun from Rolex ! 31mm / mid-size stainless steel Rolex Datejust model 178240 with unusual rhodium grey / floral motif dial on Jubilee 63160 bracelet. This eye-catching, genuine Rolex dial was offered for only a short period about ten years ago. The watch has also been fitted previously with a custom-made diamond-set bezel which is NOT by Rolex. As loyal devotees to the Rolex brand we are not great fans of customised pieces and will not supply such individual parts on customer request, but when our pawnbroking departments are left with one already fitted like this there always seems to be a queue of buyers! Comes with Rolex boxes, Datejust booklet, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. The nearest NEW equivalent (with just a polished steel bezel) now has an RRP of £5,900 — but availability of most stainless steel models is currently very poor, keeping residual prices stronger than ever.

In outstanding condition with Rolex boxes, Explorer booklet, red swing-tag and UK papers from John Pass the Jeweller dated December 2003. Delivery stickers remain on the case-back, case-sides and bracelet! This Y67xxxx case number watch is from the “classic” generation before the numbered inner rehauts were introduced. In recent years the 114270 has become an extremely desirable model and it seems that the market increasingly appreciates the value of this generation of Rolex sports models.

Nicknamed the “Bruiser” or “Batman” GMT by fans because of its distinctive bezel colours, this watch remains in excellent condition. It comes with both Rolex boxes, GMT-Master II booklet and international Rolex warranty card dated October 2017. This model itself was released in 2013 but its exceptional popularity and limited supply mean that it attracts a significant premium over the last new RRP and even that of its replacement, the 126710BLNR.

The NEW RRP is £16,300 and clearly if you could obtain one for that price then you should. Good luck!

£12,999 Stock number: 52-57-007Extraordinary 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 £7,500 — 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.

£8,299 Stock number: 52-57-004EX-DISPLAY model, UNWORN and still in delivery stickers! The watch is in very fine condition but there are some superficial marks on the highly-polished bezel. 36mm stainless steel and white metal Rolex Datejust TURN-O-GRAPH model 116264 on Jubilee 63200 bracelet with bright white / baton dial. Comes with Rolex boxes, correct Datejust booklet, red swing-tag and UK papers from John Pass the Jewellers in Crewe dated January 2006. A new equivalent was last listed in Rolex UK’s 2016 price list at £6,000 – but production ceased some years ago, since when there have been significant price rises across the rest of the range and increasing interest in this model. Red detail to the dial text, seconds hand and date display are distinctive on the modern Turn-o-Graph. Please note that while it features a time-lapse bezel, the Turn-o-Graph remains essentially a dress watch. For more robust use we would recommend one of the Rolex Professional range, perhaps a Submariner. This watch attracts collector interest in its unworn, stickered state. Please note that removing the stickers and / or wearing it may reduce that value somewhat.

In superb condition, this watch comes with original boxes, Submariner booklet, numbered green swing-tag and UK warranty card from John Pass Jewellers in Newcastle under Lyme dated February 2015. The NEW equivalent is now £7,500 but both versions have been increasingly hard to find in the UK, so we had to pay and in turn are now selling this one at a significant premium.

£8,299 Stock number: 52-33-018COMPROMISED / RE-NUMBERED Rolex GMT-Master, priced accordingly and sold with full disclosure. Stainless steel Rolex GMT-Master, 3175-calibre model 16700 with black “SWISS” dial and “Pepsi” blue and red bezel insert on Jubilee bracelet. We identified this watch as having previously had its original case number (located between the lugs at the six o'clock end) erased and then probably a different case number applied in its place. Accordingly, we sent it to Rolex UK to see if they could confirm our thoughts and the watch's original identity. They identified it as a ROLEX GMT-MASTER…Model 16700….Bracelet Jubilee 62510 20…with Dial 16758 BLAC HMK W but otherwise commented “Serial No. MODIFIED” and “…this watch has been heavily modified. We are unable to offer service facilities to modified models and therefore return the watch in the condition that it was received.“ We believe this supports our own findings. It appears that they did not link it to any watch reported stolen or lost, which might have been identified from the movement number. It could well be, then, that the watch was renumbered either in a clumsy attempt to clarify the original number which had been scratched or damaged in some way, or perhaps the number was changed only to make it appear to correspond with the set of papers accompanying it, in an attempt to add value (which we have seen many times). After Rolex's response, there now appears to be no way of establishing its original identity. The Rolex papers are dated 1997 and belonged to a watch supplied in Corfu, but that may well be no indication of this watch's history if they do not truly belong with it. The watch may have been supplied in any country and at any time between around 1988 and the year 2000. The bracelet appears to be in excellent order and may have been swapped, but the clasp itself bears a date code suggesting that part at least is from the start of the model's production date range. The watch comes with an English language Rolex GMT-Master booklet from 1999, later Rolex boxes, Rolex COSC certificate # T356182 (which must be seen in context and in no way supporting or necessarily associated with this watch) and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that the case number currently applied, at least, has been checked with them. Jubilee bracelets with 502 B end-links like this were a rare but standard option on GMT-Master 16700s. They commonly suffered the effects of wear more than the Oyster variants, although this one appears to be in very good order. We would not wish any subsequent buyer to pay for this watch in the future without realising its full nature, so we publish here its current (if spurious) case number T356182 and movement number 3 8104222 for the record, together with this extensive narrative. We have marked the papers to show that they accompany a renumbered watch. Its 16700 case-back also bears the Rolex service rejection marking LON 11/20 264329XX which corresponds with the paperwork received from them. Rolex UK will not provide service or parts for a watch in these circumstances, so both must be obtained from independent watchmakers if required. It is running within specification at the moment and comes with our usual two year warranty. We feel the watch offers good value at this price (heavily discounted from that of a similar, correct watch), but would like to ensure that any buyer fully understands all that they need to. Please ask for one of the specialist Miltons Watch Team to discuss it with you.
