About the Rolex Oyster Perpetual

The Oyster Perpetual name reaches back to the waterproof Oyster case and the self-winding Perpetual rotor. Recent references brought vivid lacquer dials — including turquoise and the multicolour 'celebration' dial — to a range of case sizes.

Oyster Perpetual references and generations

Key references and variants we regularly assess:

• Reference 114300 — 39mm, calibre 3132
• Reference 124300 — current 41mm, calibre 3230
• Reference 124200 / 126000 — 34mm and 36mm
• Turquoise ('Tiffany') and other bright lacquer dials
• Multicolour 'celebration' bubble dials

Movements and calibres

Modern Oyster Perpetuals use in-house automatics — the 3132 in the 39mm and the 3230 in current references, with roughly 70-hour reserve on the latter. Running condition and service history feed the valuation.

What affects the value of a Rolex Oyster Perpetual

Among the factors we weigh when valuing a Rolex Oyster Perpetual:

• Reference and case size
• Dial colour, especially sought-after lacquers
• Box, papers and service records
• Overall condition and bracelet stretch
• Prior polishing
• Current demand for that dial and size

Selling a Rolex Oyster Perpetual without box or papers

Missing paperwork does not put a sale out of reach. We may consider a Rolex Oyster Perpetual without its original box, papers, warranty card or receipt.

Any purchase remains subject to authentication, condition inspection, and ownership and identification checks. Documentation can affect valuation depending on the piece, and we will always explain how.

How Fair Vintage assesses your Rolex Oyster Perpetual

We look at originality first — dial, hands, case and, where relevant, bezel and bracelet — then movement condition and any service history.

Replacement parts, prior polishing, provenance, and box and papers all feed into the assessment. We explain our reasoning so the offer is one you can understand and rely on.
