Rolex watches are synonymous with premium quality. Each timepiece is made by master watchmakers, & is created from a blend of high-grade materials & precious metals, such as Oystersteel (stainless steel), yellow gold, rose gold alloy (AKA Rolex Everose gold), & white gold. We’ll talk you through how Rolex’s gold watches vary from model to model & how much you can expect to pay for a gold Rolex watch.
Aside from Oystersteel, platinum, & their patented Cerachrom ceramic (used on bezels), Rolex also produces gold watches. Goldsmiths at Rolex are some of the most highly skilled in the entire world. Rolex smelts all its gold within its own in-house manufacturing facilities, producing uniquely blended alloys of 18k gold to produce the perfect hues for their yellow, white & Everose gold watches. Exclusive surface polishes create an extraordinary sheen, resulting in an unmistakable finish that is characteristic of a Rolex watch.
Yellow gold Rolex watches are made from a special 18k yellow gold alloy that boasts unbeatable durability & tarnish-resistance. Similar to their 18k yellow gold counterparts, white gold Rolex watches are designed with tarnish-resistance & durability in mind. Rose gold Rolex watches made from the brand’s proprietary Everose gold alloy, which uses an innovative blend of silver, copper, & platinum to create a warm & rich 18k rose gold alloy that will not discolor over time.
If you’re undecided about which type of gold Rolex watch to buy, yellow gold Rolex watches offer a more classic feel on the wrist, whereas white gold Rolex watches are a nice alternative to an Oystersteel Rolex watch, exuding a slightly softer & warmer tone than steel. Everose Rolex watches on the other hand, were only introduced in 2005 & can be found within iconic collections like the Rolex GMT-Master II & Sky-Dweller.
While Rolex produced a more diverse assortment of gold watches in the past, most of the brand’s most iconic timepieces like the Day-Date, Datejust, Daytona, & Submariner are still available in all-gold versions, along with other popular models like the GMT-Master II, the Sky-Dweller, the Pearlmaster, the Yacht-Master, & the Cellini.
Generally speaking, gold Rolex watches sell at retail for roughly four times the price of comparable stainless steel Rolex watches. For example, a stainless steel Rolex Submariner is priced at around $8,550, whereas the solid yellow gold Submariner retails at around $34,250. Prices also differ slightly amongst different Rolex models depending on the specific type of 18k gold used in their construction. A yellow gold Rolex Daytona on an Oysterflex bracelet retails for $27,500, while the Everose and white gold versions of the same watch retail for $28,800.
There’s also a variety of two-tone steel and gold Rolex watches (also called Rolesor Rolex watches) that are crafted from stainless steel with gold elements added to them. Yellow Rolesor (stainless steel & yellow gold) & Everose Rolesor (stainless steel & Everose gold) Rolex watches balance an Oystersteel middle case & outer bracelet links with 18 yellow gold or 18k Everose gold winding crowns, bezels, & center bracelet links. Additionally, their hands & hour markers are also rendered in matching yellow or Everose gold. On the other hand, White Rolesor (stainless steel & white gold) watches only feature 18k white gold for their bezels, hands, & hour markers, leaving the center links of the bracelet & the winding crown to be constructed from stainless steel.
Whilst certain vintage references sometimes use a lower karat gold of 14k or 10k, today all the gold used by Rolex in their current manufacture, is a proprietary blend of 18k white gold, yellow gold, or Everose gold.
