Rolex component
OYSTERSTEEL
A Rolex watch must work perfectly and maintain its beauty even in the harshest environments. That is why Rolex uses Oystersteel, a steel alloy specific to the brand. Oystersteel belongs to the 904L steel family, which is particularly resistant to corrosion and acquires an exceptional sheen when polished.
Adhere to independent production
A MEETING OF METALS
Rolesor is the auspicious meeting of two metals on a single Rolex watch: gold and steel, with their contrasting colours and radiance, in subtly balanced harmony.
UNFADING BEAUTY
Rolex developed and patented the Cerachrom bezel for specific Professional models to ensure lasting beauty and functionality even after exposure to the most extreme conditions. Fashioned from extremely hard ceramic material, it is virtually impervious to scratches, and its colour is unaffected by ultraviolet rays of the sun.
PVD process
For optimum legibility, the numerals and graduations are engraved in the ceramic and then coated with a very thin layer of gold or platinum using a PVD process. A final diamond-polishing removes the gold or platinum from the rest of the bezel’s surface and gives an exceptional, long‑lasting lustre.
FROM ACROSS THE SOLAR SYSTEM
The origins of the “iron meteorites” incorporated into the dial of a select number of Rolex watches could not be further removed from the other materials used in constructing watches – the metal is taken from an asteroid or possibly a planet that has exploded, propelling material across the Solar System until chance brings it into our own planet’s orbit and gravity pulls it to Earth.

All watches are sold without buyers’ commission, potentially saving 25% of a price paid at an auction held by one of the big five houses.

Paul Altieri, CEO of Bob’s Watches, called the Hollywood sale his most ambitious online auction to date, although he stressed that the watches in the sale are not the pieces that have appeared on the silver screen, but are examples of the precise models that have, and benefit from their association with the movies.
Most people live under the assumption that they’ll never own a luxury watch, let alone be able to buy one as a holiday gift for someone else. Now, the world’s first and largest pre-owned and vintage watch dealer is convincing people to get rid of both preconceived notions by offering authentic Rolexes at fair prices.
For the first time ever, Bob’s Watches is holding a series of holiday-themed public auctions with The 12 Days of Rolex. Every day until December 21, the site will auction off a different Rolex, starting at a far lower price than you’d ever expect to pay.
While you can get a great deal on Rolexes (and a slew of other luxury timepieces) year-round at Bob’s Watches thanks to its transparency with buying and selling prices, the ability to bid means you can potentially get a watch for less than its listed market value.
On top of that, Bob’s Watches doesn’t charge a buyer’s premium and shipping is free, so you won’t find any extra fees tacked on to your purchase.
