Which Rolex Model Should You Add To Your Collection? | Honest Watch Dealer Q&A

[@fj7509]

Thanks SO much for getting back to my question, Charlie!!! It means a lot since you got a bunch of them. And I personally think people need to get over the whole "unworn" advertising. With high-end goods and commodities, there's no such thing as "unworn." Even if you go to the AD and get a Rolex straight out of the case, someone at the factory probably wore it on their wrist to make sure it's properly weighted, feels good on the wrist, isn't digging into the skin, etc. Rolex puts your watch through dozens of tests before it's sold to the consumer. When you purchase a brand-new car, especially a sports or luxury vehicle, the odometer is never at 0. Someone has to drive it around a test track and push the engine to make sure the car is capable of performing as advertised without defects. And then they have to drive that car onto the truck to be delivered to the dealer. In fact, if someone never wore the watch you're buying, or you get a car with an odometer at 0, that should be a huge red flag lol

[@thehonestwatchdealer]

Not a problem at all mate! Glad you enjoy the video, and you make some excellent points! 👌🏻

[@allybaapp1053]

To be fair, I’d say most people understand ‘unworn’ takes all those points you made into consideration.

Hi Charlie, Thanks for a great video and all of your videos. I wondered what you do to ensure that your watches are not stolen as I have heard that if Rolex gets a stolen watch in for service etc they hold on to it! Is this true and could it happen with a watch bought through you? Thanks for your honesty. J

[@thehonestwatchdealer]

Hi Jason thanks for watching, glad you liked this one! All our watches come with a certificate from the Watch Register to show they have not been stolen or had insurances claims made against them. I hope this helps!

What do you think of getting a precious metal daytona and deploying it on a Rubber B instead of getting it on Oysterflex from the start? Leaves you with a bit of flexibility so you can bracelet swap if you like was my thought?

That wasn’t a Chronomat Evolution in the picture. Not a SuperOcean 2 further on in the video either lol. Otherwise Rolex stock on point as always 👍

[@financesdomatter]

Very useful video. Watches should not be regarded as an investment. What happened recently is an anomaly. You buy a watch because you love it and are proud of it. If it rises in value that’s a bonus but do not buy with the thought you are going to make a profit.

[@thehonestwatchdealer]

That’s the best outlook to have! Buy to wear and enjoy, if it makes a profit then added bonus!

Hands down Charlie knows his watches? The two tone GRNR GMT is the best! I bought one and made a video review of it. It does not disappoint. It’s a beautiful watch. I’m telling you guys it’s a sleeper. Charlie has always liked that one. I would definitely recommend it.

Hello just been to my local Rolex AD to put myself on the waiting list for the submariner date . But was told that list was fully booked up until the end of 2025 . The assistant then said if I was interested in the SUBMARINER DATE Oyster, 41 mm, Oystersteel and yellow gold M126613LN-0002 I could possible get this by the end of the year would this be a good buy for my first Rolex or would this lose money ?

[@thehonestwatchdealer]

Yes so this one is a stunning model however it is quite underlist, so you would likely lose money on this one. However by the time you get the call for this the market may have changed and things could be different 🙌

[@paulmandara232]

Thanks for the reply will try another AD cheers

I visited the AD early December, and he came in clutch, literally 11 days after I placed a request with no prior purchase history. I was expecting to wait like a year, but I got the call before Christmas haha. Truly fortunate! I first came across this watch in one of your videos about a year ago, and instantly fell in complete love with it. I even made a comment that it would be my dream to eventually get it for my father haha. So happy that I was able to make it happen! Thanks for your content, you do a great job, and I love watching your videos. Keep it up, man! Cheers 🍻

Charlie, love your content and honesty. Question, I have a 2014 Rolex Hulk, 2019 James Cameron 126655, and Rolex Explorer II 16570 white dial looking to trade any two for Panda Daytona and pay the difference (if there is one), which 2 would you trade and which 1 would you keep?

[@thehonestwatchdealer]

Thankyou mate I appreciate that! It all depends, if you ware wanting to put less money towards the Panda trade in the Hulk and JC. If you are wanting to have the better collection, keep the Hulk 👍

[@fitzpatrickeamo]

You state that you are in the watch business for 9 years, to be fair, that's not really a long time, it may seem so to you, but I disagree, I've been collecting Rolex timepieces for close on 30 years, which I would consider a reasonably long period. Another matter that you constantly reference is that you are a brand ambassador for Oysterflex, I cannot figure how someone who isn't an Authorised Rolex Dealer (which you to be fair have never claimed) could be an official brand ambassador for Rolex Oysterflex and sincerely doubt Rolex would appoint an unauthorised dealer to be a brand ambassador, I could of course be incorrect, but perhaps you could explain and clarify🤔

[@fitzpatrickeamo]

5 days later, there is still no response to my observations😳🤔🤔🤔

[@fitzpatrickeamo]

So, 5 weeks after I asked you to clarify and verify your alleged claim to be an ambassador for Oysterflex, it leads me to believe that your alleged claim is, in fact false. I'm in Switzerland in 2 days time and will further investigate your alleged claim. Please address my casual but relevant query, if you have nothing to hide, then just address my query.

[@thehonestwatchdealer]

Very true, it depends on the areas you wear them in, a lot of places are safer than others. But yeah can be wary to wear out in public which is unfortunate

[@ListenToPowerViolence]

Honestly, if your wrist is tiny, like under 7 inches, you should only wear a Daytona on a Jubilee.

I just added a WG DD Meteorite w Diamond bezel. I was really on the fence about it having the diamond bezel as I am more or a stealth wealth guy, but as soon as I saw it, I fell in love with it. Now, when I see the same watch without the diamond bezel, I feel like it is missing something. With the elegance of the baguette markers and Meteorite dial, I feel like it needs the diamond bezel.
