WHY THIS WATCH

The illustrious lineage of the Rolex Explorer is deeply interwoven with the spirit of exploration and endurance, tracing its origins to the brand's early engagements with formidable human endeavors. The historic ascent of Mount Everest in 1953 by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, with the Rolex Oyster Perpetual on Hillary's wrist, played a pivotal role. This monumental event spurred Rolex to introduce the Explorer as an ode to this achievement and the enduring spirit of adventurers. Over time, the Explorer became synonymous with a harmonious blend of rugged resilience and sophisticated elegance, emerging as the top pick for both enthusiasts and adventurers.

Introduced in 2001 and in production until 2010, the Rolex Explorer reference 114270 succeeded the prior 14270 model, retaining the iconic 36mm diameter emblematic of the Explorer series. However, its distinctiveness was epitomized by the advanced Calibre 3130 movement, a significant upgrade from the Calibre 3000 of its predecessor. This innovative movement not only enhanced its reliability and precision but also solidified the Explorer's legacy as a trustworthy tool watch

WHY THIS WATCH

Known by some as the perfect, everyday wristwatch, the Rolex Datejust, introduced in 1945, revolutionized wristwatches with its automatically changing date function. As Rolex's flagship model, it showcases the brand's innovation and elegance. The Datejust's Oyster case, waterproof and robust, houses the perpetual self-winding movement. Renowned for its versatility, the timepiece remains a symbol of prestige and timeless style.

The Rolex Datejust 16234 was introduced in the late 1980s and introduced a sapphire crystal and a brand new calibre 3135. Many collectors consider the introduction of the sapphire crystal as the end of the vintage Datejust era. So many collectors loved the warm hugh of the acrylic and the way it bends and plays with the light. Others see the sapphire as necessary progress. As sapphire has a hardness second only to a diamond, these crystals are nearly scratch free forever (though we have seen some scratch, it's harder to do so). The calibre 3135 introduced a full balance bridge and upped jewel count, and an added 8 hours of power reserve. Note that the previous generation calibre 3035 already had the quick-set date function, so that's nothing new. The addition of the sapphire crystal, alongside the calibre 3135 makes these watches absolute tanks that will run forever and look good in the process.

All of our watches are inspected by a professional and are guaranteed to be 100% Authentic, with only Factory Parts unless otherwise disclosed. Please check out our track record online via our website, reviews on eBay, and Chrono24.

WHY THIS WATCH

The Nomos Club Campus has its own unique flair. While the original Nomos Club boasts a classically straightforward dial that's visually captivating, the Campus veers off that path. With this model, Nomos definitely took an unexpected turn, infusing more whimsy into the design. This fresh look will certainly draw varied reactions, with some enthusiasts adoring it and others not so much. The "Campus" moniker and its subdued color palette make the series an ideal present for graduates. With case size of 38.5mm, this watch wears deceptively large due to the long lugs and high lug to lug width. Inside we have a manual winding NOMOS calibre Alpha. A classic from NOMOS Glashütte and their premier choice: the handcrafted, manually wound Alpha caliber is renowned for its precision and acclaim. You only need to wind it once every two days to keep it ticking.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

CASE: New Factory Nomos Case - Watch is from 2022.

BRACELET: New Factory Nomos Nato

DIAL/HANDS: New Factory Nomos Hand/Dial Set

MOVEMENT: Nomos Factory Alpha Movement running strong and keeping excellent time

BOX and PAPERS: Factory Nomos box and paperwork from 2022

Experience on the Wrist: At 38.5mm this is smaller watch, but wears more like a medium watch due to the long lugs. I would say this watch wears like a 40mm.

WHY THIS WATCH

Known by some as the perfect, everyday wristwatch, the Rolex Datejust, introduced in 1945, revolutionized wristwatches with its automatically changing date function. As Rolex's flagship model, it showcases the brand's innovation and elegance. The Datejust's Oyster case, waterproof and robust, houses the perpetual self-winding movement. Renowned for its versatility, the timepiece remains a symbol of prestige and timeless style.

The Rolex Datejust 16220 was introduced in the late 1980s and introduced a sapphire crystal and a brand new calibre 3135. Many collectors consider the introduction of the sapphire crystal as the end of the vintage Datejust era. So many collectors loved the warm hugh of the acrylic and the way it bends and plays with the light. Others see the sapphire as necessary progress. As sapphire has a hardness second only to a diamond, these crystals are nearly scratch free forever (though we have seen some scratch, it's harder to do so). The calibre 3135 introduced a full balance bridge and upped jewel count, and an added 8 hours of power reserve. Note that the previous generation calibre 3035 already had the quick-set date function, so that's nothing new. The addition of the sapphire crystal, alongside the calibre 3135 makes these watches absolute tanks that will run forever and look good in the process.

With reference 16220, the second digit '2' indicates that the watch features an engine-turned bezel. Engine turning, also known by its French term, guilloché, is a decorative method that involves mechanically engraving a complex and recurring pattern onto a material using a specific machine. While Rolex has ceased the production of engine-turned-bezels, discontinued models featuring this style can still be found in the pre-owned market. Visually similar to the more common fluted style, engine-turned bezels exhibit a series of ornamental grooves engraved around the perimeter. The ref. 16220, with its more refined profile and now-discontinued bezel, possesses the vintage appeal that Rolex enthusiasts crave—while still maintaining the impeccable performance of a timepiece fresh from the assembly line.

The Rolex Datejust 16220 utilizes the automatic caliber 3135, one of the most bullet-proof calibres of all time. The calibre 3135 a highly reliable and accurate movement which was introduced in 1988. It boasts 31 jewels, a 28,800 beats-per-hour frequency, and a 48-hour power reserve. The caliber 3135 features a quickset date function and a free-sprung balance wheel, exemplifying Rolex's dedication to precision and innovative engineering.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

CASE: 9/10: Factory Rolex Case - P serial case from the year 2000, in excellent with light wear from normal use.

BRACELET: 9/10: Factory Rolex Jubilee band, in fantastic condition with very little stretch will fit 7.5 inch wrist.

DIAL/HANDS: Factory Rolex Hand/Dial Set in excellent condition

MOVEMENT: Rolex Factory Movement running strong and keeping excellent time

BOX and PAPERS: Factory Rolex Box Only

Experience on the Wrist: At 36mm this is smaller watch. I would say this wears true to it's 36mm sizing. This watch can be worn by a man who appreciates the subtlety of a smaller piece, or by a lady who prefers larger watches.

Hassle-Free Returns

With reference 16234, the digit '3' indicates that the watch features a White Gold Fluted Bezel. Note that this watch is the brother of the 16220, which is the same watch, just with an engine-turned steel bezel. So if you're looking for a datejust from this era, with a gold fluted bezel, this is the one to get.

All of our watches are inspected by a professional and are guaranteed to be 100% Authentic, with only Factory Parts unless otherwise disclosed. Please check out our track record online via our website, reviews on eBay, and Chrono24.

WHY THIS WATCH

The design of the Tudor Black Bay meticulously incorporates elements from distinguished Tudor classics. The dial configuration is reminiscent of the inaugural Tudor Submariner, specifically the reference 7922. Observing the Tudor "Big Crown" reference 7924 reveals the provenance of the Black Bay's prominent crown and its intentional absence of crown guards. Further, the signature snowflake handset of the Black Bay can be attributed to its inspiration from the esteemed Tudor reference 7021 "Snowflake" Submariner.

The amalgamation of design elements positions the Black Bay as a standout performer in the $3,000-$5,000 price range. Its prominence and sales success within this segment are unparalleled. Recognizing its market traction, Tudor has diversified the Black Bay lineup, introducing an array of variants such as a bronze edition, the 38mm Black Bay 58, and several other sophisticated iterations.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

CASE: 9/10: Factory Tudor Case - Excellent, with some light wear from normal use. Strong and sharp lugs. Watch has never been polished.

BOX and PAPERS: Factory Rolex Box

WHY THIS WATCH

This is a 100% Authentic Rolex Submariner Reference 1680 from 1979. The dial has a beautiful light creme patina. The watch is 40mm which is considered a perfect Medium-Large size for most men. The watch has been checked by our watchmaker and is running well. It comes with the Rolex box Picutred. This is a perfect watch for someone looking for a reliable daily wearer, with some vintage patina.

The introduction of a date feature to the iconic Rolex Submariner with the reference 1680 represented a pivotal shift for this renowned dive watch. In the times preceding the ref. 1680, the Rolex Submariner had been designed with a focus on the requirements of professional divers and others involved in marine exploration. The watch was celebrated for its durability, water resistance, and practicality, essential attributes for its designated audience. It was crafted for readability, dependability, and withstanding severe conditions, with little emphasis on added frills.

Nevertheless, the late 1960s marked a transformative period for the Submariner with the introduction of ref. 1680. It signaled a shift from a tool watch to a luxury accessory. The added date functionality, complemented by a magnifying cyclops lens on the date display, was the first notable deviation from the Submariner's primary utilitarian design. This alteration wasn't solely functional; it bore symbolic significance. It was a clear indication that Rolex was broadening its market appeal, not limiting itself to divers but targeting the wider luxury consumer sector. This trend has persisted, and today's Rolex Submariners, while still retaining their credentials as dive watches, are predominantly perceived as emblems of wealth and prestige. Today's horological enthusiasts still debate the addition of the date function. Some purists argue that it deviated from the Submariner's original mission, while others view it as a natural progression that allowed the watch to evolve and meet shifting market needs. Regardless of the ongoing controversy, the Rolex Submariner ref. 1680 is highly coveted in today's market, valued for its pivotal role in the Submariner's lineage as the transition point from its beginnings as a functional dive watch to its recognition as a luxurious timepiece.

WHY THIS WATCH

The Rolex GMT-Master was first conceptualized in partnership with Pan Am Airways, specifically for their crews on long-haul flights, and was supplied by Pan Am. The watch's unique feature is its ability to display two distinct time zones simultaneously. The original GMT-Master includes a fourth 24-hour hand that mirrors the time shown by the regular 12-hour hand. This GMT hand allows the wearer to align the main time display with Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or any other timezone, and then adjust the rotatable 24-hour scale bezel to track a second timezone. The acronym 'GMT' originates from Greenwich Mean Time, which is also known as Coordinated Universal Time and serves as the standard timezone used in all aspects of aviation planning, weather forecasting, and scheduling. The Rolex GMT Master 16750, considered a transitional model, was manufactured between 1981 and 1988. It was offered with the famous red/blue Pepsi bezel insert or an all-black variant.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

CASE: 8.7/10: Factory Rolex Case - 8.6m serial number from 1985. Excellent, with some wear from normal use. Strong and sharp lugs.

WHY THIS WATCH

The Rolex Submariner is an iconic dive watch that originated in 1953. It was designed for professional divers and gained popularity due to its robust construction and water resistance. Over the years, it has undergone several updates, including the addition of a date function. The Submariner Date is characterized by its rotating bezel, luminescent hour markers, and robust Oyster case. This particular Model is a 5512 from 1968.

The watch received a factory rolex service as well.
