Since its inception in 1905, the Rolex brand has become one of the most famous and prestigious brands in the world of watchmaking. Rolex watches are now considered status symbols and symbols of wealth, and the prices of Rolex watches have been rising steadily over the years. The brand is very popular with collectors, and many rare and vintage models have achieved record prices at auction. For example, a 1968 steel Rolex Paul Newman Daytona sold for $17.8 million in 2017.
Each year, Rolex revises its prices upwards. A first increase was noted on January 1, 2022, a second on November 1, 2022, and finally another in January 2023. On all models, we note a increase of approximately 7% over one year.
It is one of the most famous and iconic Rolex models, used by professional divers since the 1950s.
