      I'll work on this. It's though because auctions tend to limit the info and firsthand access a buyer can receive. I'd say that much of what's relevant here applies, but also Google the serial number if available to see if it's been offered before at auction. If there's a public exhibition event associated with the auction, definitely attend that if you can. And find out what a service will cost before bidding. Almost all auction houses note "service recommended," and it's often the only reliable info listed in the auction house's description! Best, Tim

    Nice dial finishings, great marketing but overpriced. They use half quartz movements because they are cheaper to produce, same reason why power plants switched to hald digital instead of keeping them full mechanical. Its not a new technology just new to a watch.

      ​@@kindfaceRolex is not overrated because everybody knows exactly what they are getting - a great watch with a bulletpeoof movement and just something nice that won't tank in value as soon as you leave the store. Rolex is overhyped by the tiktok generation, not overrated.

      @@kresimirpleic "knows exactly what they're getting". Listen to the nonsense that's coming out of your mouth. If you know exactly what you're getting, fill in the blanks for me then "that Submariner I've got on my risk is one of _____ pieces that Rolex produces a year". Rhetorical question because nobody, not even self-proclaimed fine watche cognoscenti know. Why? Teh foundation that owns Rolex has never disclosed those numbers. They've played that game for decades. The better for Rolex to game their sucker customers like you about how exclusive their watches are. And every time you try to place an order for a current model, you either leave your name in their waitlist or do that with a cheque. Guess what, fanboy, like I said before, Rolex aren't really short of stock. It's just a game to get suckers like you thinking their watches are so well made it takes time, etc, etc. Rolex sure has proven there's a sucker born everyday. Omega has put George Daniel's co-axial movement into their watches for at least the past dozen years now. That's a game changer. Rolex has got no important innovations (zilch) in the last few decades - or maybe you care to name one LMAO!
