WE BUY, SELL, AND SOURCE ALL LUXURY WATCHES

Tom was excellent, attentive and responsive, and knew how to calm my nerves when buying from him without seeing him or the watch! Tom provided useful videos to show the watch I purchased (2004 Submariner) and was available all times of the day to answer my questions, and has since helped me with a few queries. Would highly recommend to check out his website.

How Much Will I Get for My Rolex Watch?

Model & Edition

The specific model and edition of your Rolex significantly impact its value. Limited editions or models with historical significance typically fetch higher prices.


Watch Condition

The overall condition of your watch, including the dial, case, movement, and bracelet, plays a crucial role in valuation — well-maintained pieces with minimal wear command higher prices.

Market Demand

Current market trends and demand for specific Rolex models influence resale value. Popular models in high demand often result in better pricing for sellers.

How to Simplify the Rolex Sale Process

Facilitate a smooth transition for your luxury timepiece.

Embarking on the journey to sell your Rolex in today's market is a venture filled with opportunities. According to Watches of Wales, the Rolex retail price updates in 2023 reveal an average price increase of around 2% across most models. This alone is a testament to the brand's enduring value and desirability. This modest uptick reflects a steady demand for Rolex watches. Plus, it ensures sellers can expect a fair and competitive valuation for their timepieces. Investing in a Rolex is not just a purchase; it's a wise financial decision.

The core of our approach at Motion Watches is grounded in transparency and effective communication. As detailed by WatchPro, Rolex experienced a 4% price rise at the beginning of 2024 in the UK. However, it's significantly lower than the previous year's increase. This change is due to global inflation and currency variations. Therefore, it shows the importance of partnering with experts.
