    2. Rolex Consignment: You Have More Options Than Just Selling Your Rolex Watch Immediately

    Perhaps you don't need the money instantly, but your timepiece is not being worn and collecting dust. If this is the case, consignment is a great option for you. Consigning allows us more time to find a buyer willing to pay top dollar for your timepiece.

We can help you determine what would be the most fair market price. Current market value always fluctuates, but Elite Watch Co. can give you a consignment price vs a sell-now price for your Rolex model so you can make the best decision for your situation. It might make sense to hold onto your Rolex timepiece until the right buyer is found.

    Sometimes it isn’t smart to sell it to me, if I’m not the right fit, I point you in the right direction. Unlike most who try to convince you the value of your timepiece is minimal

    Is Now a Good Time to Sell Rolex Watches?

    The demand for pre-owned Rolex watches continues to grow and while they have come off their enormous highs from the 2021 Pandemic pricing, resale prices have remained stable increasing steadily.

    When is the best time to sell your Rolex?

    Selling your Rolex is a very personal decision. On a high level, the most strategic time to sell your Rolex is when the economy is strong and people are spending money on luxury items, such as cars, expensive vacations, and of course jewelry. At this point, you can expect to get a much better price than when the economy is struggling.

    Or maybe you're tired of it and have your eye on another Rolex or luxury watch. This is also a great way to cover the cost of a new watch.

    FAQ

    Can I Sell My Rolex Without a Box or Papers?

    Yes, you can most definitely see your watch without the box or papers. Some individuals will most definitely buy Rolexes without those items. Just remember that you will receive more money if you have the original certificate of authenticity and the original box. If you have your service records available too, that will also add to the value of the watch.

    Where can I locate my Rolex's Serial Number?

    For older pre-2006 models, the serial number is located on the watch case at the 6:00 mark, between the lugs that hold the bracelet. So you would need to remove the bracelet to read the numbers. The placement of the serial number between 2006 and 2010 was engraved on the inner bezel of the watch - some models still had the number engraved on the watch case. Models after 2010 have the serial number etched on the inner bezel. These models are referred to as "scrambled".

    Should I Service My Rolex Before Selling It?

    We can guide you on whether or not it makes sense, but generally speaking, you will get the most money for your Rolex watch if it is in tip-top condition looking as close to new as possible. That being said, most dealers can service the timepiece at a discounted rate on their own. While having it serviced does add value, often the value added is not more than the return on the investment. Once again, it is situational.

    Are You Able To Value My Rolex Without Selling It?

    If you are looking to get a valuation for insurance appraisal purposes, we can do so. The price per appraisal begins at $250. We will need your timepiece for approximately one week to complete the appraisal.

    Why Is My Rolex Appraisal Higher Than Your Offer?

    This is a good question. When we buy a Rolex from a seller, we do have some fees to cover, however, when you compare our rates to other online buyers you will see that we are very competitive with our offers.

    Appraised value is a different value than resale value. Appraisal Values are calculated for the sole purpose of insurance replacement. These amounts are typically higher than market value, which is essentially the amount someone is willing to pay to acquire the timepiece.
