Well, This is the market situation of Japan, as Quark has certain representative power in terms of Buying and Selling Rolex across Japan.

In HK, the No.1 to No.3 is still hardest to get, but all depends on when and which shop you stop by, and end of the month, somehow some of the best watches have to be “SOLD” as to meet the monthly sales target.

And Sooner I will see that more GMT Master Black Blue will be available in HK, as last month still we could not get 5% discount, but two weeks ago, some of the Rolex ADs are offering less 5% already.

As I always emphases, Watch is for your own uses, whatever look best to you will be the choice!

Price Comparison and Trend of Major Rolex Models between 1970's to 2000's

Price listed here is US Dollars



The Pricing scheme of the product is an important factor to determine the position of it.

Pricing set-up of a Product is very important as it determines the target profit margin, Marketing value, market acceptance, Images, should be also consider the Competitors pricing!

Imagine if one day you can buy the Rolex at a discount of 10% in one Rolex Authorized Dealer, and next day the other Rolex AD opposite the Nathan Road can offer less 15%. We all know the result and consequence; no one will be interested in this product anymore!

Over the year, Day Date was position as the Flag Ship of Rolex, I believe that Rolex was not able to tell what will be their ultimate Flagship model at the beginning, not until one day, the model would be accepted my majority of customers as the Ultimate buy, ideal Watch of Rolex! And of course, Rolex had to develop a showcase model to differentiate with other watches, Day Date is the one with the more complicated movement, so as the Daytona.

Rolex started itself from a diver’s Iconic watch since 1926 when their watch was proven to be able to survive through the English Channel, that was a very important motive for Rolex to decide what direction they should go.

By 1956, The Day Date was invented with challenge on the watch movement as it has to drive both the “Day” and “Date” wheels at almost the same time. It adds on extra Loading to the watch power chain, and it had to maintain a 36 hours power reserve at same time. Rolex had to develop new movement that Patek and AP had no such technology by that time.

I selected prices of these three years selected as for some comparison, 1973, 1984, 2004, it is interesting to see….

Day Date Ref 1803

It was selling at $1,850 in 1973, and was increased 5.1 times to $9,450 in 1984!

From my other sources, early DD (Bubble Back) was selling at about $350 in 1956 and was increased to $1,850, I guess that there was no oil-crisis in 1973, the DD price would not be so low in 1973!

Overall pricing of 2004 over 1973 is ten times for DD.

Daytona Steel, interesting to see that the watch price of Daytona of 1984 is just two times of 1973, I think that the Daytona was not a popular model in 80s’ But it was becoming very popular model after 80s.

The Submariner Date gold and Day Date has similar price trend over the years.

Daytona watch as the fastest price growth,; the price 1984 is six times comparing with 1973 and twelve times of 2004 comparing with 1973.

Over the year, Day Date is maintained the Flag Ship model as price of a Day Date is equivalent to 3 Date just Two Tone and 5 Date Just Stainless Steel.

The Day Date Ref 1803

Nowadays, a presentable Ref 1803 is roughly 1.3 price of a new Stainless Steel Date Just!

Who do you think? It is under-value, it is the Chateau Mouton 1945 of Bordeaux, it is the Jumbo 747-400 of Boeing, the best-selling model of Boeing.

It is the Rolls-Royce 40/50 Silver Ghost, It is just like the DB5 of Aston Martin. It is the best of this kind for the Rolex.
When we spotted a good beautiful Rolex DD, don't let it go.

As DD is "cheap", it is having more fun and choice for us to buy. A Datograph is almost the price of 6 pieces of Ref 1803!

I could wear 5 different Rolex Day Date to work, but I can only wear the Same Datograph from Monday to Friday.

of course, one has unlimited budget to buy watches does not have this concern. Or someone has a Lambor, he could use that amount of money buy 10 Datograph and 50 Rolex Ref 1803.... !! :) 

HK Snob

Omega was used to be more expenisve than Rolex in the 60s... now it is reversed!

Rolex Ref 1601 DJ TT Pink Gold was sold in HK for HKD$1,846.00

I Sold this watch to someone or HKD$11,000 5 years ago

Was Omega more expensive than Rolex? And How about nowadays?

From some of the old watch collectors who kept saying that the 60’s Omega is more expensive than Rolex.  The Constellation was selling HKD$600 whereas a Date Just was HKD$450 at that time.

Whereas in the 70’s a Date Just two tone was selling at about HKD$1700 and similar Model of Omega Sea Master was selling HKD$1,600. (rough estimation from my memories!)

To the good Financial support of Poor middle class, The Pawn shop was offer a better price for Omega than Rolex. However till end 70 and start of 80, more and more promotion of Rolex had been launched in HK and World Wide that changed the situation.

The Rolex bubble back was selling US$141.75 to US$320 in 1946 in US and An Omega Centenary was selling US$450 in 1949. Omega was very expensive. As at that time Omega was very much accepted as the world most accurate timer, most of the Olympic games selected as official timers!

Until 80’s Rolex had been far pull away from Omega in the selling price as Rolex was gain much more VALUE as comparing with Omega.

In 1966, a Rolex DD yellow gold was just HKD$8,000.  

In 1979 a Rolex Date Just two Tone 36mm was selling HKD$3,750

In 1989 a Rolex Date Just White Gold with leather strap was selling HKD$19,000 net after discount,

In 1992 A Rolex Date Just Solid Gold 34mm with gold Strap was selling HKD$60,000 net after discount.

After 1990, the price of Rolex and Omega under the similar category has a wide price gap, Rolex is much more expensive than Omega.

Another Interesting thing , We bought a British made Bush B/W TV in 1975, with HKD$1,100, and the same year a Rolex Two Tone Date Just was HKD$1,800.  In 1975, an average Worker salary is HKD$250!

If you keep the Rolex until Now, We can easily selling it sway with HKD$20,000, how about the TV?

Yes, you better scrap it as no one will buy.

Try to buy a Rolex Today, after 20 years, there is still a Big Value. If you buy a 150 inch Sharp LCD TV with LRGB LED Back light now, probably it is HKD$60,000, after 20 years. That TV value will be “Zero”!

Updated Major Rolex Watch List Price and Discount at Rolex Authorized Dealer (AD) Hong Kong June 2013

All Major Rolex Watch Model List Price, and Discount at Rolex Authorized Dealer (AD) Hong Kong 2013

Rolex has adjusted the price 4 times in 2011, and 5 times for Tudor. It has been no price adjustment for Rolex and Tudor since Nov 2011!

Still there is no news on new price adjustment in 2013 as of this moment!

Rolex currently produces around a dozen different Oyster Perpetual models. Rolex also has their dress line, Orchid 50-60 and later Cellini. They are not the major model people is looking for.

For ladies they make the 23mm Oyster-Perpetual, 26mm Date & Datejust, and 29mm Yacht-Master. In mid-size, you can get the 31mm Datejust or 35mm Yacht-Master (the only sport model offered in a case smaller than 40mm).

Lastly there are the gents: 34mm Date & Air-King; 36mm Datejust, Explorer & President; and the 40mm Daytona, Explorer II, GMT-Master-II, DeepSea replaced the phased out SeaDweller, Submariner, and latest 44mm Stainless Steel Yacht-Master II with a sky high price of $145,300 less 5% discount. The new one like Explorer II, Sky-Dweller is made of a larger size of 42mm. The newer enlarged Date Just II and Day Date II is not seen to be accepted by most of the customers, still the 36mm Size is the main stream.

Some models like the gents Datejust currently have about 10 model numbers in production... The numbers help differentiate the different metals and bezels used. Dial colors are not included, so that leaves one with dozens of new Datejust choices... The DeepSea in comparison is offered only in steel, only with a black dial, and only as Ref. 116600.


Air-King
The Air-King could be considered the "entry level" model from Rolex. It is 34mm in diameter and comes with an Oyster bracelet by default. The Air-King does not have a Date. In the 1970s, the Air-King was offered with a date and in gold & steel combinations which was rare! Those two variations likely ceased production since they are redundant next to the Date and Oyster Perpetual models.

Current models retail for Air King Ref 114200 $46,600 with the smooth bezel fitted,

Air King with the engine turned white gold fluted bezel Ref 114234 $60,500.


Oyster Perpetual

Date: The Rolex Date is 34mm like the Air-King, but it obviously includes a date function. Its production began in the late 1950s, around the time the steel Datejust was introduced. Retails range from HKD$45,000 with a smooth bezel and Oyster bracelet to HKD$60,500 with an 18K white gold fluted bezel and diamond markers. The date model was once offered in 3 flavors: steel, 18k yellow & steel, and all 18k yellow gold. It is now only available in steel.

Ref 115200 stainless steel, 34mm Smooth stainless steel Bezel date Oyster Strap $47,500

Ref 115234 stainless steel, 34mm, White Gold Fluted Bezel Date Oyster Strap No Diamond $55,500

Ref 115234 Stainless steel, 34mm White Gold Fluted Bezel Date Oyster Strap Diamond dial $62,100

Datejust

The Datejust is the best selling Rolex model in the market, 60% of Rolex model is Datejust and has been for decades. It was first introduced in 1945. The gents model is 36mm in diameter and typically came on a Jubilee bracelet. Rolex seems to have changed their tradition on this and is sending more Datejust models out the door with the Oyster band. Models with smooth bezels are available, but less common. Most have the fluted bezel, which is 18k white gold on the steel model. Most of the Chinese big spenders buy Two Tone Rolex Date Just 36mm with

Diamond Dial as the most frequent buy.

The Datejust was only available in gold until 1957 (conveniently a year after the release of the Day-Date which still has never seen a steel model). The steel Datejust was introduced and became an instant success. Rolex soon saw the steel variations selling much quicker than their gold models. Rolex countered this in 1962 when they introduced the gold and steel version…
Ref 116200 Date Just stainless steel watch, 36mm, Smooth Stainless steel smooth Bezel with Oyster Strap $49,000

Ref 116234 Date Just stainless steel watch, 36mm, White Gold Fluted Bezel with Oyster Strap $58,800

Ref 116234 Date Just stainless steel watch, 36mm, White Gold Fluted Bezel Smooth with Diamond Dial with Jubilee Strap $72,700


Ladies Date/Datejust
These two models use the same 26mm case mold and offer the exact same functionality. Rolex discontinued the ladies Date, there was so much overlap in the models that it seemed long overdue.

Ref 176200 Oyster perpetual Lady 26mm stainless steel, No Date, Smooth Stainless steel bezel with Oyster Strap $49,000

Ref 179160 Oyster perpetual Lady Date Just, 26mm stainless steel, with Date, smooth bezel with Oyster Strap $45,800

Ref 179160 Oyster perpetual Lady Date Just, 26mm stainless steel, with Date, smooth bezel with Jubilee Strap $46,600

Ref 178271 Oyster Perpetual Lady Date Just, 31mm Mid Size Two Tone Rose Gold, With Rose gold Fluted Bezel, MOP with Diamond with Jubilee Strap $107,800


Milgauss

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual Milgauss was introduced in 1956 with model number 6451. The Milgauss was designed as an antimagnetic watch specifically for those who worked in power plants, medical facilities and research labs where electromagnetic fields can cause havoc with the timing of a watch. The current model Milgauss is equipped with amagnetic alloy (Parachrom-Blu) hairspring and movement encased by a Faraday cage. The name Milgauss is derived from the Latin mille, which means one-thousand, and gauss, the unit of a magnetic field. l is so named because it can withstand a magnetic flux density of 1,000 gauss.

In 2007, Rolex brought the Milgauss back after nearly two decades as the model number Ref 116400. There are currently three versions: white dial or black dial with a standard colorless sapphire crystal, and the GV (Glace Verte) or "Anniversary" model, with black dial of a slightly different design and a green-tinted sapphire crystal. The GV is the only Rolex produced with a tinted crystal. Although initially rumored to be a limited edition, the GV version is still produced nearly 3 years later after 2010.

Due to its internal Faraday cage, the Milgauss is thicker than the Submariner, but the same width and weighs 157 grams. The Milgauss is only available in 904L polished stainless steel, an alloy that is extremely resistant to scratches and corrosion. Aside from its resistance to magnetic fields, the Milgauss' most unusual feature is its orange lightning-bolt second hand, a unique feature in the Rolex lineup that was originally introduced with the 6541 Milgauss model.

Ref 116400 Milgauss White Dial or Black dial $55,500

Ref 116400 GV Milgauss Green Glass $59,600

Explorer I

It was introduced in 1954, and has had one look through-out its life; a black dial with Arabic numbers at 3', 6' and 9', no date, smooth bezel, Oyster bracelet, and a stainless steel 36mm case. Except for the updates that all Rolex watches have received, it remained essentially the same watch.  Explorer I Ref 214270 39mm stainless steel with Oyster Strap $48,200


Explorer II

This model was introduced in the early 70's and was never widely distributed or popular until 1991. The original model was produced until the current model was released in 1985. The Explorer II uses the same movement as the GMT-II models and makes use of a secondary 24-hour hand that rotates once every day. The engraved steel bezel is stationary and was originally designed for speleologists (cave explorers) who can have a hard time determining if it is am or pm.

Today’s new Explorer II Ref 216570 was launched in Nov 2011, new caliber of high accuracy, 42mm stainless steel, it come with Black with Orange Floating Pointing $60,500, White Dial same price.


Submariner

The Submariner was introduced by Rolex in 1954. The watch comes only on an Oyster bracelet and has a 40mm case. The steel model is only available with a black dial, and is one of the most recognizable Rolexes. Anniversary editions with green bezels can occasionally be found.

The Submariner has the common single direction rotating diving bezel with minute markers for the first 15 minutes. The original models until 1958 are often considered "James Bond" models and have some easily recognizable difference. Primarily, they had a smaller crown, no crown guard, and the bezel only had minute markers every 5 minutes. In the late 70s the model 16800 was introduced. It sported the new sapphire crystal and quick-set function. In 1989, the 16610 was introduced with an improved movement and a more secure bezel, that is the most advanced and yet beautiful Submariner so far claimed by most of Submariner Collectors.

In 2010, the 116610 was introduced with a ceramic (Cerachrom) bezel and improved “Glidelock” buckle.

Ref 114060 Submariner Black dial,no Date 40mm, stainless steel watch with matching Oyster Strap $58,000

Ref 116610LN Submariner black Dial, 40mm, stainless steel watch with matching Oyster Strap $62,100

Ref 16610LV Submariner Green bezel Black Dial, 50th Anniversary model, discontinued in 2010.

Ref 116610LV Submariner green dial and green Bezel, 40mm, stainless steel watch with matching Oyster Strap $66,100 (Due to its limited supply, there is no discount for this model)

Ref 116613LN Submariner Two Tone with Yellow gold and Stainless steel, 40mm Black Dial, $94,700

Ref 116619LB Submariner Solid White gold, 40 mm with Blue Dial and Blue Bezel with matching gold strap $263,600


DeepSea

Sea Dweller: The Sea Dweller was introduced in 1971 and discontinued in 2008. It is virtually the same watch as the Submariner. The only real differences are the thicker and heavier steel case, thicker crystal with no cyclops eye, and the helium escape valve useful only to deep divers. The original model was rated for 2000 feet and called the "Rolex Submariner 2000 Sea Dweller". It lost the "Submariner 2000" part of the title in 1973. The previous issue, model 16600, is rated to 4000 feet and is sold only in steel. The Sea-Dweller DEEPSEA, model 116660, has replaced the Sea-Dweller model 16600 and retails for HKD$82,500. The DEEPSEA model offers a greater depth rating (to 12,800 feet) along with a thicker, larger case and an improved "Glidelock" buckle


GMT-Master II
The 1950s were an exciting decade for Rolex and included the introduction of the classic GMT- Master. It was one of the first watches to utilize a second hour hand to indicate a second time zone. With the simple rotating 24 hour bezel, one could fairly easily tell the time in any time zone. The late 70s saw the introduction of the GMT-Master II which was basically the same, except now the user could easily adjust the 2nd hour hand with the crown in position 2. The steel models are only offered with black dials. The bezels are available in all black, red/ black, or red / blue. GMT's typically come with a Jubilee bracelet installed.

The original GMT-Master (16700) was phased out in the late 90s. The latest serial number Bernard's had for the 16700 was a U#, putting its birthday around 1997. With the flood of new models with a second time zone function from other manufactures, retiring it was a smart move, as most consumers will want to adjust the 2nd hour hand.


The GMT-Master II (16710) was discontinued in 2008 and replaced with the GMT-Master II (116710) The primary difference besides the 3186 caliber movement with Parachrom Bleu hairspring is the ceramic (Cerachrom) bezel. Some late production 16710s have been discovered with the 3186 movement.

The GMT-Master II with green hand Ref 116710LN retails for $61,200 in steel. This model was launched in Nov 2011.

Ref 116713LN GMT-master II Two tone, stainless steel and Yellow gold, $91,500

Ref 116718LN GMT-master II Solid Yellow gold with Black Bezel and Green Dial $228,500

Latest released GMT-master II Black and Blue Ceramic Bezel Ref 116710 BLNR launched into HK Market in June 2013 at $65,300 with no discount.

Yacht-Master II

In 2007, Rolex‘s launched the revolutionary regatta chronograph. It is now available in 904L steel for the first time, fitted with a Cerachrom bezel insert in blue ceramic. On the inside of the huge 44mm Oyster case, the Yacht-Master II features an exclusive function developed by Rolex – a countdown mechanism which can be programmed from 1 to 10 minutes and incorporates a mechanical memory, allowing it to be reset to the same countdown duration. Once launched, it can also be synchronized on the fly, enabling it to be adjusted to match the official regatta countdown. The Yacht-Master II is equipped with calibre 4161, a self-winding mechanical regatta chronograph movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex.

Ref 116680 stainless Steel 44mm, with a solid platinum bezel and was just released in June 2013. $145,300 max less 5% discount only due to its scarcity on new release.


Daytona Cosmograph
The story of the Rolex Cosmograph could be called the most chaotic of all the Rolex Oyster models. Rolex is keen on creating a winning product. The watch never really got off the ground until 1986 when the market for them exploded and the watches would often sell for double the retail price in Italy. The "Paul Newman" models manufactured around 1967 were and still are the most desirable of the Daytona models fetching prices over HKD$400,000. It retailed for around HKD$25,500 back then. In 1989, Rolex replaced the Valjoux workhorse movement with the Zenith El Premiro movement. During the 1990s, the Daytona was the only Rolex model not using a Rolex movement. In 2000 came the newly developed Rolex caliber 4130 with a 72 hour power reserve.

The stainless steel Daytona Ref116520 retails now at $87,500 for White Dial and $97,000 for Black Dial

Steel and Gold models retail for $113,000 and all 18K yellow gold for $265,000. Steel Daytona's have consistently sold for more than retail since the 1980s. The two-tone and gold models do not sell for over retail, unlike their steel counterparts.

Day Date
Day Date (DD) The FlagShip of Rolex, I have been talking a lot about this model and I think many more people started crushed on this model, and a lot of HK Rolex collectors are looking for Colourful Vintage Day Date, especially Model Ref 1803 and Ref 18028, which has been introduced to the world as a Classic. As of this moment in time, their price is still low. However as for new watch, so far, there is never a single request on purchase nor price of Day Date, as Firstly I think they are not cheap, and second, those who can buy would not care too much if that is less 5%, less 10% or less 14%.

What are the hot models?
No. 1 Daytona Stainless steel Black Ref 116520, Price is $97,000 net no discount limited to 1-2 Pieces at each Rolex AD a month.

No.2 Submariner Green bezel and green Dial, Ref 116610LV $66,100 net no Discount, 2-3 Pieces a month available at Rolex AD.

No. 3 Submariner Black Dial Ref 116610LN $62,100, about 4 -5 Pieces a month for Rolex AD.

No. 4 DeepSea Ref 116660 $82,500 about 3 pieces a month, due to the high price and giant size, not too many people has the wrist to carry the watch, the demand is much lower than Submariner Ref 116610LN.

So we can buy this watch easily at Rolex AD.

Selection

It is hard to tell which model suits you, some young woman wear a giant DeepSea, some men of 6 foot wear an Air King, I think if you feel that is good and meet your budget will be best choice for you!

Price and Discount

Note: Price listed here is rough estimation only, normally walk-in can get 5% discount from Rolex AD in HK on these prices. Some VIP get 8% discount for Submariner, Explorer and GMT-Master, 10% to 14% on other Date just or Solid Gold Watches. We sometimes understands as they buys a lot of watches a year. However, Rolex is mandatory not allowing any Rolex AD to give more than 5% as to control the Brand value of Rolex like other luxury brands Louis Vuitton, Tiffany, Cartier and Chanel.
