How old, which serial number or features should a Rolex need to be considered a Vintage Rolex?

sakuraba · 28 July 2010, 07:12 AM

IMHO vintage = plexi
modern = sapphire

True. What about Sapphire with Matt dial? Quick set date?

Most consider the matte 16800 'transitional', so I guess collectors are on the fence regarding its '"vintageness".

I think 4 numbers references!

Good question....usually when it comes to cars, it's anything over 25 years old...and anything before 1949 is an Antique. In Rolex's I wear a '85 DJ 2T but really do not consider it vintage.
