£4,899 Stock number: 52-65-020Smart dial option, no longer offered ! 34mm stainless steel Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air-King (non-date) model 114200 with bright white / index baton / 3-6-9 dial on Oyster 70190 bracelet. In superb condition, it comes with both boxes, Oyster Perpetual booklet, numbered green swing-tag and UK warranty card from David M. Robinson in Liverpool dated November 2013. A NEW Air-King now costs £6,250 but in truth a closer new equivalent may be the plain Oyster Perpetual 34 model 124200 at £4,850. Supply is still not meeting demand and residual prices of such watches remain very strong.
SOLD
£13,999 Stock number: 52-66-0032022 watch with latest dial – barely worn after spending much of its short life in the safe! 44mm stainless steel Rolex Yachtmaster II model 116680 with white dial and blue ceramic bezel insert on Oysterlock 78210 bracelet. Has both boxes, Yachtmaster II instruction booklet, both swing-tags and international Rolex warranty card dated June 2022, when it was purchased from Goldsmiths in Liverpool. The NEW RRP is now £16,000 but (as with many steel versions of the Rolex professional series) supply is limited and residual prices have a life of their own. This is a complicated watch but fortunately it retains the valuable instruction booklet. Rolex also provide a video guide on their website, which we can locate for you if required. Please note the triangular marker at the top of the dial, where earlier examples had just a square marker like those either side of it.

£10,499 Stock number: 50-65-007Beautiful 2009 example, serviced by Rolex UK in November 2021 – after which it spent most of its time in our pawnbroking safes! Bicolour Rolex Date Submariner model 16613 T with blue “SWISS MADE” dial and bezel insert on Oyster Fliplock 93253 bracelet with solid end links. Comes with Rolex boxes, Submariner booklet, international Rolex warranty card dated July 2009 and Rolex UK service card dated November 2021. In excellent condition with only moderate wear to the bracelet. The NEW ceramic bezel, fatter-cased equivalent is now £13,150 but these previous-generation models in their own right have never seemed more popular.

£28,999 Stock number: 52-66-002We’re all “wowed” by the dial on this rose gold Daytona – and it’s in fantastic condition, with delivery sticker still on case-back, after spending much of its short life in a safe! 18ct “Everose” gold Rolex Cosmograph Daytona model 116515LN with stunning “sundust” / index baton dial, black Oysterflex strap and ceramic bezel. These models are just as likely to be worn by gents or ladies now. Has large, original boxes, Cosmograph Daytona booklet, green swing-tag and international Rolex warranty card dated September 2021. The NEW equivalent is now £27,050 but availability of any similar specification Daytona remains poor, so we are selling it at a small premium (but less than many other dealers). The strap will fit a man’s average wrist and offers a small amount of adjustment, but if a different length is required we will order one on an exchange basis. We would anticipate doing this at no additional cost, but there may be some weeks’ wait for such a strap to arrive from Rolex. Additional pictures may be viewed by clicking through the main image.

In superb condition, it comes with Rolex boxes, Datejust booklet, green swing-tag and UK warranty card from Laings the Jeweller dated October 2019.

You really need to see this watch in person to see how the light plays on the MoP and catches the diamonds! Has both boxes, Datejust booklet, both swing-tags and UK warranty card from David M. Robinson dated August 2018. The NEW RRP is now £9,250 but supply is still limited and residual prices remain very strong. Available from Miltons of Chester, under the famous clock.

£17,499 Stock number: 52-65-017Gorgeous 2023 example of the most sought-after BLUE dial Rolex Sky-Dweller! Stainless steel and white metal Rolex Oyster Perpetual Sky-Dweller model 326934 with blue / index baton dial on Jubilee 62220 bracelet. As with the Rolex Daytona, it seems that a steel Rolex with complicated functions can prove exceptionally popular – and very difficult to buy new from a main agent. We are selling it at a premium to the new list price. Comes with original boxes, Sky-Dweller booklet, both swing-tags, international Rolex warranty card dated January 2023 and even the delivery bezel protector. A NEW equivalent is now £13,850 and clearly if you could obtain one for that price then you should. Good luck! Available from Miltons of Chester, under the famous clock.

£9,799 Stock number: 52-63-011One of the prettiest Datejusts we’ve seen! 31mm / mid-size steel and rose metal Rolex Datejust model 178341 with original diamond “scatter” bezel on Oyster 72161 bracelet. The shimmering highlight is the original white Mother of Pearl / Roman numeral dial with diamond detail in the “VI” ! This watch is in lovely condition with negligible wear to the glass. Has Rolex boxes, Datejust booklet, red swing-tag, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. This exact dial is no longer offered, but we can deduce that if Rolex made one a NEW equivalent would now be £13,450 (£13,100 for a standard diamond “VI” dial, plus £350 premium for MoP). Availability of such models continues to be poor, keeping residual prices very strong. This watch has a random case number, which means it must date from around 2010 ~ 2018. Available from Miltons of Chester, under the famous clock.

£7,899 Stock number: 52-64-0332021 watch, barely worn! Stainless steel Rolex Datejust 41 model 126300 with smart, slate grey / index baton dial on Jubilee 62610 bracelet. In outstanding condition, it comes with both boxes, Datejust booklet, both swing-tags and international Rolex warranty card dated June 2021. The NEW RRP is now £6,950 but many steel models are still hard to find in the UK, so there is a premium to the new list price. Clearly if you can find one at RRP then you should buy it. Good luck! Available from Miltons of Chester, under the famous clock.

Comes with both boxes, Oyster Perpetual booklet, green swing-tag and UK warranty card from The Watches of Switzerland Group (Goldsmiths etc) dated September 2019.

£5,899 Stock number: 82-64-00636mm bicolour Rolex Datejust model 16233 on Jubilee 62523 bracelet with classic champagne / diamond dot dial.

£36,999 Stock number: 52-65-010Magnificent, all-original gold and diamond Rolex! 34mm Rolex Datejust model 81338 on original “chevron” diamond-set 74858 bracelet with double-diamond bezel and full pavé diamond / black enamel roman numeral dial. This stunning piece is in brilliant condition (well, it’s probably not a watch for every day wear!) and it even has the case-back sticker still in place. Comes with HUGE Rolex presentation / jewellery box set, Datejust booklet, red chronometer swing-tag and original UK papers dated August 2006. From our archived records we have found this exact specification offered in the Rolex UK October 2008 price list (shortly before it appears to have been discontinued) at £45,510 …but prices for new watches have risen enormously since then. Further images may be viewed by clicking through the main picture. Please note that this style of bracelet correctly has plain gold links (without diamonds) on the clasp side, where any diamond setting would be more exposed to wear and damage.

SOLD
£6,999 Stock number: 52-63-02726mm bicolour Rolex Datejust model 179173 with sparkling champagne / diamond dot dial on a brand new Oyster 72133 bracelet. Yes, at great expense this watch has just been fitted with a NEW bracelet from Rolex, which is still stickered! It 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 NEW equivalent is now £10,400 ! Available from Miltons of Chester, under the famous clock.
SOLD
£4,499 Stock number: 52-63-007Bought from a large, private collection, this “safe-queen” from 2001 looks like it has just come from the shop! Stainless steel Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air-King Precision model 14010M with popular blue / 3-6-9 dial on Oyster 78350 bracelet. It comes with Rolex boxes, Your Rolex Oyster booklet and blank, undated UK papers from Fraser Hart. The previous owner had around twenty mint Rolex watches, many of them never worn, and this one is another stunner, having even its original sticker still on the case-back! A NEW Air-King now costs £6,250 if you can find one, but realistically a closer new equivalent may be the plain Oyster Perpetual 34 model 124200 at £4,850….and neither watch is readily available at the time of writing.
SOLD
£4,299 Stock number: 52-34-01126mm bicolour Rolex Datejust model 69173 with unusual white / diamond dot dial with small roman numerals, on Jubilee 62523 bracelet. This 1987 model comes with Rolex 69173 boxes, Your Rolex Oyster booklet, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. The nearest NEW equivalent is now £10,950! This watch is priced very reasonably to reflect a number of factors : (1) the fluted bezel and bracelet both show signs of wear, such that we now recommend this watch be kept for dress wear only, (2) under magnification, it can be seen that the dial paint is deteriorating and (3) the case and model numbers are both substantially worn *
* Ladies’ Rolex Datejusts of this generation are often now found with one or more of the numerals in the case number obscured by bracelet wear. This was caused by the end-links rubbing constantly against the case. In this instance the third and fifth digits of the unique case number are obscured by bracelet wear, but luckily we were able to confirm the correct case number of the watch from its service history through a Rolex main agent and Rolex UK.
SOLD
£3,299 Stock number: 52-70-00536mm stainless steel Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust model 1603 from the late 1970s with silver / baton “pie-pan” dial and Jubilee 62510 bracelet. 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. Because of its age, we offer it with only a ONE year warranty and ask you to note : (1) this model correctly has no “quick-set” facility for changing the date at the end of a short month, so the wearer must turn the hands through 24 hours to advance the date and (2) the bracelet shows some signs of age and wear. It is priced very reasonably to reflect the above. Comes with our own presentation box & warranty card, and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. With a similar, NEW 36mm Datejust today costing £6,650 it is easy to see why such vintage models appear increasingly attractive. Please ask one of our Rolex-trained specialists, Phil or Paul, to discuss this watch with you.
SOLD
£5,899 Stock number: 52-64-00536mm stainless steel Rolex Datejust model 116200 with smart silver-grey / Roman numeral dial on Oyster 72200 bracelet. In very good condition with negligible wear to the glass, it comes with both boxes, Datejust booklet, numbered green swing-tag and international Rolex warranty card dated November 2010. The NEW equivalent is now £6,800 but supply is still weak and residual prices remain strong. Please ask one of our Watch Team to demonstrate the fold-out “comfort-link” on this model’s bracelet.

£8,599 Stock number: 50-64-058Stainless steel Rolex Date Submariner model 16610 T with black “SWISS MADE” dial and bezel insert on Oyster Fliplock 93250 bracelet. It comes with a Rolex box, Your Rolex Oyster booklet, 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 £8,650 (if you can find one!), but the earlier models have proved increasingly popular in their own right. This F34xxxx case number watch from around 2004 is in very good condition but we do note some minor scratching to the bezel insert, reflected in the price. With prior notice, we could fit a new, genuine Rolex bezel insert on an exchange basis for a separate repair charge of £75.

£1,699 Stock number: 50-64-019Gent’s stainless steel Omega Seamaster Professional 300m automatic bracelet watch, model 2531.80.00 with blue dial and bezel insert. Comes with Omega boxes, instruction booklets, numbered swing-tag and Omega warranty card from David M. Robinson in Manchester dated 1998. Following its association with James Bond in films from the Pierce Brosnan era, the blue Seamaster has become something of an iconic watch. There are visible scratches to both the glass and bezel insert, reflected in the price. We also note that the main crown has only a short amount of thread, but if correctly screwed down the watch still tests as water-resistant.
SOLD

Gent's stainless steel Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Master Co-Axial Chronometer automatic bracelet watch, model 231.10.42.21.03.004. This special edition was one in a series created to celebrate the brand's association with the modern Bond films. It has a dark blue dial with background motif picking up detail from the Bond family crest (also depicted in miniature on the second hand) and yellow details including the Bond-branded “15007” text, this being the number of examples manufactured. Its 8507 calibre movement is beautifully revealed by the glass display-back, allowing admirers to see the rotor with subtle “bullet case” design to the centre and swirled “rifling” design, reminiscent of the film series' opening credit sequence. In excellent condition, it comes with huge Omega box set *, instruction book, branded eye-glass, instruction leaflet and tool for swapping bracelet and strap, the alternate blue strap with yellow stitching (superb condition), international warranty card dated January 2017 in blue card-holder, numbered certificate of authenticity and a receipt for a service under warranty performed through David M. Robinson in June 2019. Some additional photographs are available if one clicks through the main image. Please ask for one of our specialist Watch Team to discuss this interesting watch with you.
* The inner box is beautifully finished with the repeating motif seen on the watch dial and the “Bond family crest” for its push-button opener, but the cardboard outer carton shows signs of wear and damage, its vulnerable, fold-down front flap completely missing.

It comes with Rolex boxes, Datejust booklet, our own warranty card and six certificates* from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. The NEW equivalent is now £8,600 !
* Ladies’ Rolex Datejusts of this generation are often now found with one or more of the numerals in the case number obscured by bracelet wear. This was caused by the end-links rubbing constantly against the case.

Stock number:What’s this? A new section on Miltonaires for “Vintage and Collectible Rolex” ? Yes, it’s finally here !
Miltons have built a commercial reputation for selling a fine selection of modern, pre-owned Rolex, but our Watch Team’s specialist knowledge and interest extends to vintage Rolex ( click here for more details.) For some years the international specialist collector / dealer communities have seen glimpses of rare treasures that the various Miltons companies have negotiated to buy or take in part-exchange from other collectors, private sellers, former professional divers, other jewellers, auction houses, estates and so on. Some of the treasures we currently hold are SEVEN Comex Submariners and Sea-Dwellers, even more UK military-issue 5513 and 5517 Submariners, a few Submariner 5508 and 6536/1s, a host of 5513 Submariners with various gilt or otherwise interesting dials, red and white Submariner 1680s, a 16800, Double Red and Great White Sea-Dweller 1665s, a couple of GMT-Master 6542s including one with its original Bakelite bezel, EIGHT GMT-Master 1675s (including gilt dials), a GMT-Master 16750 and a SeaKing 116710LN, FIVE Explorer 1016s (1 gilt dial), THREE Explorer 5500s, an Explorer 14270 Blackout, FOUR Orange-Hand / “Disco Dial” 1655 Explorer IIs, THREE Milgauss 1019s, a Cosmograph 6263 and a Royal Navy Clearance Diver DSSD 116660.
Our intention is to start actively marketing those of which we have most examples at the more reasonable range of value — so you might expect to see 5513 and 1680 Submariners, 1675 GMT-Masters, Explorer II 1655, Explorer 1016 and similar watches, which we hope to roll out from mid-2023 as they are readied for sale. We are currently having a number of watches serviced by a major and well-known Approved (and vintage specialist) Rolex watch-maker in preparation for sale.
Would we sell some of the mega-pieces in our collection? Well, they say everything is for sale at the right price !
The watches in the attached pictures will not all be immediately available, but they give some indication of the interesting pieces to come.

£4,399 Stock number: 52-62-00626mm stainless steel Rolex Datejust model 179160 with unusual silver / concentric circles / arabic numeral dial on Jubilee 63130 bracelet. In very good condition with Rolex boxes, Datejust booklet, numbered green swing-tag and UK papers from Ernest Jones in Croydon dated March 2009.

£23,499 Stock number: 52-63-006Extraordinary opportunity to buy an UNWORN, UK-supplied example of this discontinued DAYTONA model from 2007, complete and still in its delivery stickers! Stainless steel Rolex Cosmograph Daytona model 116520 with black dial on Oysterlock 78490 bracelet. This Z46xxxx case number watch is in delivery condition, still in protective stickers.

The NEW ceramic bezel models now have an RRP of £13,600 but waiting lists are generally intangible / closed and they are commonly being sold on the secondary market for a huge premium. This has made the previous model 116520 an attractive alternative and it remains in its own right one of the most sought after models in recent decades. An unworn and stickered example like this is an increasingly rare find. Please ask to speak about this special piece with Phil or Paul in our Watch Team, both former managers of Rolex main agents.
