Rolex Watches

Stainless Steel Rolex Daytona Chronograph
Rolex has long been regarded at the staple of fine watches and time pieces. If you look at the wrists of many athletes, pop stars, and watch enthusiasts there is a high likely hood you will be looking at a Rolex. The brand was founded in 1905 in London. The company produces about 2000 watches a day, and is one of the largest companies worldwide. The company has an extensive line of fine watches such as the day date, Submariner, GMT, Daytona, Yachtmaster, Deep Sea, and many more. Our company has purchased over 1000 used Rolex watches from the public in our New York, Nassau, Queens, and Suffolk locations. We find that of all the watch brands we purchase, Rolex has the best resale value on the second hand market and international market. Just recently we were lucky enough to acquire a rare Rolex Chronograph in our Huntington store in Nassau County which is a collectors item, and will be put on auction internationally. If you have a Rolex watch, or any fine watch you are interested in getting valued and sold please contact us for more information.
