Selling a Rolex is not hard if you do business with a reputable and trustworthy company, such as Bob's Watches. In just a few simple steps, you can sell your Rolex for quick cash. All you need to do is provide some details about the watch you want to sell and a Bob's Rolex expert will get back to you with a quote. 

For example, if you're looking to sell a pre-owned Air-King, first take some clear pictures of the watch. Then, write down the model (Air-King) and reference number (if you know it). To find the reference number, take a look at the watch's paperwork—it should be there. If not, don't worry, we will be able to determine the Air-King reference from the photographs. Once you have all the information on hand, fill out the Free Instant Quote Request Form and you'll get the value of your Rolex Air-King.

Once the watch arrives at our headquarters, it will be opened and inspected by one of our in-house specialists (while being recorded on video) to confirm all the provided details are correct. Once the inspection is complete, you will receive a final buy price to sell your Rolex Air-King to Bob's Watches. If you're happy with the price, then you simply choose how you want to get paid and you'll get your money quickly. 

Where Can I Sell My Rolex?

You can sell your Rolex to Bob's Watches, the leading name in pre-owned Rolex watches. We specialize in all Rolex watches, from vintage to discontinued to current Rolex models. So whether you have a vintage Air-King ref. 5500, discontinued Air-King ref. 14000, or modern Air-King ref. 116900 you want to sell quickly for a great price, then Bob's Watches is the place for you. 

Pricing transparency has always been fundamental to Bob's business. If you browse the Air-King section of our website, you'll see that we publish both the buy price and sell price with all listings. That way, you can get a general idea of the value of your used Air-King—or you can refer to our comprehensive pricing tables. However, the best way to find out the value of your secondhand Rolex Air-King is by requesting a quote from us directly.  

How Much Does A Used Rolex Sell For?

Model, production year, condition, and market demand are just a few of the factors that can impact how much a used Rolex sells for. Thanks to a flourishing collector market, some pre-owned Rolex watches can sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars—some have even broken the million-dollar mark. 

A used Rolex Air-King watch generally sells from the low-thousands to the mid-thousands price range, depending on the s reference. You can check Bob's Watches' Air-King pricing table to see where your pre-owned Rolex falls for a general price idea. Alternatively, you can contact Bob's Watches directly using the Instant Free Quote form or calling our offices at (800) 376-7430 for a price quote for your particular Air-King watch. 

Can You Get Papers For A Rolex?

If you have misplaced the original paperwork (which includes the COSC Certificate and the authenticity card/international warranty) the Rolex Air-King you want to sell, Rolex does not offer a way to replace those papers. 

Unlike some other luxury watch brands, Rolex does not have an extract of the archives service either. The closest official paper you can get is a service report from a Rolex Service Center, which will include things like the serial number and reference number on it. 

Which Rolex Is The Cheapest? 

With a price tag of $6,450, the Air-King ref. 116900 is the cheapest Rolex sports watch in the current catalog. Comparatively, the Oyster Perpetual, which is Rolex's entry-level casual watch, ranges from $5,100 to $5,900 depending on size. The Explorer sports watch is marginally more expensive, retailing at $6,550. 

In the secondary market, pre-owned Air-King watches are some of the most affordable Rolex watches for sale. It is not uncommon to find a used Rolex Air-King ref. 5500 for less than $3,000—making it a great starter Rolex watch. 

How Much Does It Cost To Fix A Rolex?

Servicing a Rolex watch at a Rolex Service Center (RSC) typically starts at around $700 but can cost more if new parts, such as a winding crown or crystal, are needed. If broken, the cost of fixing a Rolex watch can be much higher depending on what exactly is faulty on the watch.

However, if you are looking to sell your Rolex Air-King, we would recommend not having it serviced beforehand. As contrary as it sounds, collectors and enthusiasts will pay more money for an un-serviced Rolex watch with all its original parts (regardless of how aged it is) over one that has been serviced and fitted with new replacement parts. 

Is It Cheaper To Buy A Rolex In Switzerland?

Rolex publishes an official price list that all authorized retailers have to follow to avoid price differences across various markets. So the price of a Rolex Air-King, for example, is standard across Switzerland, the U.S., and other countries. 

Even if there is a marginal price difference to due currency exchange rates or getting the Swiss Value Added Tax (VAT) refunded upon departure from Switzerland, you must declare anything you purchased abroad to US Customs upon your return to the States. After an $800 exception, the remaining value of the declared Rolex will be subject to customs duty, which is calculated at 3% for the first $1,000 and then 6.5% beyond that. In short, it's rarely cheaper to buy a Rolex in Switzerland than buying one in the U.S. 

Can I Check A Rolex Serial Number? 

Yes, you can check a Rolex Serial Number by using Bob's Watches Serial Number Lookup Tool. A serial number can help you determine the approximate production era of your watch. Rolex used to issue serial numbers in a sequential fashion, which made it easier to determine manufacturing years. For instance, if you have a pre-owned Air-King 14000 you want to sell, you can run its serial number in our Serial Number Lookup Tool to see what year it was made. 

However, around 2007, Rolex began issuing random serial numbers on its watches, making it impossible to pinpoint the production year. Therefore, if you have a current production Air-King 116900 you want to sell, then its serial number will be a random one—but we do know that it was made from 2016 until today.

How Do I Sell My Watch At A Pawn Shop?

We would recommend not to sell your Air-King watch at a pawn shop since you will get a much lower price than what your Rolex is worth. Pawn Shops are known to be the worst place to sell watches to, especially luxury timepieces like Rolex. They are neither specialized in the nuances of what makes a watch valuable nor concerned about offering fair prices to their customers. 

If you want to get the highest price for selling a Rolex Air-King, then a pawn shop is certainly not the answer. Instead, contact a pre-owned Rolex watch specialist like Bob's Watches. Benefit from our transparent pricing policy, where we publish the buy and sell price of Rolex watches right on our website for everyone to see.
