Rolex Advice

[_Nathan_]

Hi,

I'm after a 'classic' Rolex and fancy a slightly tacky one.

Can anyone offer me any advice for/against this one which seems a fair price despite the changed dial ?:

Or how about : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&am...

Buy something that isn't so hideous

I hope you realise that the dials on those Rolex are after market dials. It would be difficult to gain a proper valuation for such a watch.

Further, if you intend to service your watch through Rolex UK, they will decline unless the watch is returned to the original and you will be charged extra for this privilege.

I would stay away from after market add ons as they do not appreciate in value, if anything, it devalues the watch.

Find a proper one with a factory fitted dial and ensure you get the proper Rolex certificate confirming this too.

Good luck

Thanks Roy, does anyone think the prices are far and likely to be recoverable 12-18month later?
