About the Item

Brand: Rolex Model: 116598RBOW Year: 2013 Serial number: 1Vxxxxxx Reference: C03745 Rolex is a watch manufacturer that can alternate seamlessly from classic to avant-garde designs, something that has been demonstrated numerous times over the decades. Remarkable examples of avant-garde designs include the 6262 made in gold in the 1960s and early 1970s, the model 6269 and 6270 made with diamonds in the 1980s, and last but not least, the ‘beach’ colorful Daytona at the beginning of the new millennium. Many of these ultra-exclusive Rolex watches offer a truly opulent and in-your-face aesthetic, and as a result of their bold designs, they have not always been to everyone’s personal tastes. However, the Rainbow Daytona is so fitting in this era that it currently changes hands for more than three times its retail price. It’s no surprise to see a Rainbow Daytona adorn the wrists of celebrities or that collectors and horology enthusiasts notice every time a Rainbow Daytona is photographed on their wrists. In 2018, auction record has sold for HKD1,812,500; and in 2022 the pre-owned market is retailing it for over HKD3 million! Question is how much it will worth few years after? Case: 18K Yellow Gold Case with diamonds lug show sign of wear seem to be unpolished in original condition Dial: Excellent Condition black / gold crystal with diamond indexes dial along with matching hands; original factory rainbow diamond bezel Bracelet: 78608 18K Yellow Gold Oyster Bracelet w/ 9 + 1 links & clasp code 1SH Accessories: Rolex Original Guarantee Card dated 02/24/2013 from Ross-Simons Jewelers; Booklets; red tag & Rolex Green Box Our company guarantee it is original and running properly.

Rolex

While the rise in popularity of vintage Rolex watches is of no surprise to aficionados, collectors and industry experts, when it comes to contemporary luxury wristwatches, Rolex is also often the first brand that springs to mind. Not only is the company revered for its precision timekeeping and impeccable craftsmanship, but its name was designed to be memorable.

Rolex's enviable worldwide recognition can be credited in part to the genius of company founder Hans Wilsdorf. When the German-born watch dealer and his brother-in-law, Alfred Davis, set up their London enterprise, in 1905, they called it Wilsdorf & Davis, according to the traditional formula.

But Wilsdorf was determined to come up with another name that was short, would look good on a watch dial and was easy to say and remember in several languages. In 1908, he trademarked the name Rolex, and by 1920, he had moved the company to Geneva and redubbed it as Montres Rolex S.A.

But the main reasons for the brand’s success are its aforementioned commitment to precision and unflagging pursuit of innovation. In 1926, the company introduced the aptly named Oyster model. With a screw-down crown and case back, both fitted with rubber gaskets, this was the first truly waterproof watch.

Five years later, Rolex upped the ante with the Oyster Perpetual. That model’s patented Perpetual movement contained a rotor mechanism enabling it to self-wind. In another trendsetting move, in 1945, the brand debuted the Datejust, with a date window prominently displayed on the dial.

The company’s two most iconic models are sports watches. Although the Submariner, which debuted in 1953, was developed as a dive watch, its waterproof case, solid construction and good looks made it a favorite of adventurers and urbanites alike, including James Bond, who wore it in classics like Dr. No and Goldfinger. The Daytona, the racing chronograph made famous by Paul Newman, is especially sought after by collectors. Newman’s personal Daytona, which hit the auction block in 2017, sold for $17.8 million.
