Value of a used Rolex

How do I find out the estimated value of a specific model? I can buy a 2022 36mm Day-Date all yellow gold for $35K at a local Jewerly store but don't know if its a good price or not. Bob's has a similiar watch listed for $37K but understand they are high priced. Please help where I can better understand what they should cost.

Sounds right to me. If it’s in really good shape and or serviced, probably a good deal.

What they cost is what someone is willing to pay and in general we are not a valuation site.

Make sure all links are included OP. There are some secondary retailers notorious for selling watches without all the links as a way to increase margin. Gold links are expensive so be diligent.

To be more curt, I believe Bob’s was one of them.

Value of a used Rolex

First, don’t be so keen about buying it. These days there is no such thing as a good deal for you buying from a grey dealer. Because of the technology and social media, the dealers throughout the world are so well connected with the business (special groups on WhatsApp, telegram, signal, Facebook etc) that the deals go only one way: them buying low and selling high from/to a private individual who doesn’t have the same multitude of options dealers do.

Yet if you insist, then look for it on chrono24.com but set the filters to be similar to the watch you want to buy (box and papers, condition etc).

And keep in mind that if you were to sell that exact watch to the same dealer you plan to buy it from, it would offer you less than 60% than what he’s asking you for now.

Good luck!
