You know that Rolex has made many famous timepieces with a history that dates back over a century, including vintage and modern. While the vintage timepieces are often sought-after for their history and collectability, modern Rolex watches bring something different to the table in the form of a contemporary style and several modern upgrades. So how does one choose between the two if given a chance to order just one fake Rolex? Determining how to decide can be a hard task, absolutely. Now, let’s take a general look at vintage replica watches and what makes them so appealing.
One of the most exciting factors of vintage Rolex watches is the history. Maybe the special reference that you have your eye on is similar to a watch worn by a former American President, a legendary actor, or a famous explorer. Or maybe it introduced a crucial feature to a model, such as a sapphire crystal, an upgraded movement , or an increased waterproofness. A notable “transitional” vintage reference, for instance, is the Submariner 16800 which brought with it several additions to the iconic diver watch line, including a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and a higher resistance to depths of up to 1,000 feet. 
Collectability is another notable selling point of a vintage Rolex watch. What is it about each timepiece that makes it so desirable? Perhaps it boasts a rare set of hour-markers or a highly desirable fade on the dial. Some dials may even crack with age, resulting in a highly sought-after “Spider” dial. It’s the search for some of these rare occurrences that makes buying a vintage watch so appealing to some collectors. Depending on the rarity of the feature set, vintage Rolex prices will vary greatly. Some of the more elusive references will command a higher price. However, there are affordable vintage Rolex watches on the market today that will meet most budgets.
New Rolex watches are actually more contemporary, often giving larger case sizes and upgraded materials, such as Oystersteel and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Upgrades such as solid links and end links, wider lugs, and milled clasps offer a substantial weight on the wrist that is different from the older Rolex watches. With over a century of experience in making complex and precise movements, the newer watches that Rolex produces are also singularly reliable. With age comes some wearing down of the intricate parts of each Rolex, including the crown, which may result in some loss of waterproof. If factors like this are important to you, you may want to consider purchasing a new or pre-owned Modern Rolex.
Contemporary Rolex replica prices will vary depending on materials used and the complexity of its functions. Whatever your budget may be, there is a modern Rolex on the market that will meet the needs of your lifestyle and budget. The truth of the matter is, only you can decide what the best purchase is for you. You’re going to like the watch you choose no matter what decision you make. Whether t is a modern replica Rolex, or one of the many sought after vintage models we carry, the great watch for you is the one you decide.
