May 8, 2021

JEWEL CAFE BUY AUTHENTIC ROLEX WATCH AND PAY CASH ON THE SPOT!


Rolex is a widely known as a status symbol. Rolex has such a long and successful history of quality and precision timepieces that last for generations, so they typically have a high resale value, compared to the rest of the industry. Most other watch brands do not have as strong of a resale value as those of Rolex watches.

If you have Rolex watch and want to sell it, you can come to Jewel Cafe for estimation. Jewel Cafe can buy you Rolex watch with higher price and you will get instant cash promptly. 

Like another shop, we have the procedure which is need to check more for the Rolex. One of the procedure is need open the bracelet and back case the Rolex watch. There is reason why we need do that. So today we want to discuss about this topic. 

STAMPING OF SERIAL & MODEL NUMBER

If the Rolex still have the certificate, it easier to know the serial and model of the Rolex. This because at the certificate already have the serial and model number of the Rolex. But if it has accessories , we still need to open the bracelet to double confirm. Make sure the engraving serial and model number same with the card and certificate. 

The serial and model numbers on a genuine Rolex are deep and perfectly marked in solid compare with the fake. The engraving also smooth when we touch it.

 

Every authentic Rolex will have serial and model number engraving on beside the bracelet. You can check the photo below:

FAKE ROLEX

 

If you open the bracelet and the Rolex watch don’t have any engraving of serial and model number, so the Rolex watch is a fake one.

 

MOVEMENT

There are 3 types of Movement in Rolex which is Self-Winding, Manual Winding, and Quartz. The self-winding (Automatic) model is the most common one. It is simply a mechanical watch with a mainspring wound by the motion of the wearer’s arm.

 

To check the movement, need to open the back case. So, we can know the caliber number. Different model of Rolex have different of calibre number. The genuine movement will always have “Rolex” engraved on it. 

Please check the photo below:

FAKE ROLEX

 

When you open the back case and you do not see any engraving of Rolex and the calibre number so the Rolex watch is fake.

One of our procedure during the appraisal of the Rolex watch, we need to open the bracelet and back case. Without this procedure, we cannot proceed in estimate your Rolex watch. 

Your cooperation is highly appreciated.
