What do you need to know, the 10 golden rules to determine a vintage Rolex!
- Buy yourself a geiger counter. It’s a must have to determine the radiation of tritium and radium!
- Examine the graphics up close, focus on the Rolex coronet and the R from Rolex.
- Check out the luminous, the Rolex dial makers always add them perfectly on the dial.
- Look from the side into the dial, you will notice that the patina is not natural.
- If possible, examine the back of the dial, the dial makers stamp is engraved by etching and not stamped as originals.
- Check the volumes of the luminous up close, you’ll notice that the structure is more closed then when naturally aged.
- Check the provenance, where did it come from? If a deal is to good to be true, walk away!
- Buy yourself a loupe that at least magnifies 10 times. Examine pictures on big screen and zoom in.
- Compare always with known originals, like you find in Goldbergers 100 superlative Rolex book / App.
- If non of the above helps you, post a picture of the Vintage Rolex Forum or send it to me by email.
