Rolex-Related Gift Under $100

[Chiboy]

In the family's gift exchange, I need to come up with some ideas for myself. Since I have gotten so into watches the last year or so, and especially Daytonas, I thought something related to that would be good. Budget is about $100 or less. I don't think I want a winder. Any good ideas?

Besides a winder or a watch roll I don't think there's much things out there Rolex related under $100. Maybe a Rolex pouch? Although I'm not sure if you can just purchase one.

A nice watch box, travel case, Rolex books or watch books on amazon. There are many great books. A subscription to Watch time.

Maybe a nice Bulang And Sons Strap for your DJ?

I do have a travel case (which I have yet to use). Any particular books that are good? I think all those Modani (sp?) books are way more than that.

Best of time Rolex wristwatches an unauthorized history $123. Vintage Rolex sports models $61. I have the first one and it’s very interesting and has very good historical information.

Coffee table book with watch photos. Even those are often over $100 but they can try used on amazon marketplace

I enjoyed ‘A Man and His Watch’ by Matt Hranek. Available from Amazon.

Maybe a Rolex branded pen.

I think a book would be the best option. There are a few incredible Rolex Sport model books out there.

[osamu]

few ideas:
Tools (a nice screw driver set for bracelet resize) maybe some other simple watch working tools that come in handy (Bereron pliers/spring bar tools).
Or maybe a simple timegrapher if you're interested in trying to track your accuracy. There are some fancy ones like the Lepsi one for your phone, but might be more expensive than the most basic ones.
I have seen some likely "unauthorized" Rolex wall clocks in that price range.

It apparently comes in LV too:

Just found these on Google. Apparently they go for around $100 to $120.
Would love to buy one meself, but from an actual store.

40mm too small for ya? How about a 340mm?

While those are nice looking, they're also theft of Rolex IP. I don't see how a fake Rolex clock is any better than a fake Rolex watch

Polo shirt ?

Coronet tattoo. I have one.

[duc888]

I would prefer the wall clock :)

Rolex cap

[adawil2002]

Check out Rolex clothing items on ebay.

[AK797]

For under 100 I'd probably buy a Rolex cardholder or notebook. For over a genuine set of cufflinks or silver pen.

Thanks for the ideas. I must say that a Rolex-branded umbrella/hat/clothing is not something I would ever use. So that's out. Great idea for others perhaps, but not my style. I do think about getting a couple of basic tools, though. If I ever get to cash in my "number 1 position" on the AD for a DayC, I was thinking about putting a strap on it to better differentiate it from my other Daytona. I will see if there are any tools that can be had within that budget.

Ironically, the Unofficial History of Rolex book I currently have checked out from the local library!

Thanks for the ideas!

What about a nice leather strap for your watch?

Or a couple of NATO straps so that you can switch them out every now and then?

I don’t know if this would interest you, seeing that you’re more interested in the Daytona, but what about a Rolex anchor? (The ones that used to come with divers watches)

I’ve seen some online for under $100...

But who knows if they are the real deal.

[schoolboy]

Idk which watches specifically the anchors came with, but I know mine didn’t come with one haha.

[Headshrinker]

Not Rolex per say, cleaning products to keep those Rolexes looking good.

[Danny83]

I say a Rolex pen on Ebay

Afraid not. I'll describe it: It's around 1.5 inches tall, black and the transfer scanned straight from the 'Your Rolex Oyster' manual. It's on the front of my left bicep by the way, above a little black paw print (for my dog). It's very neat. And on the rare occasion I go shirtless in the UK no one knows what it is. I've had 'what's the crown for?' numerous times. I think it's damn cool and I'm surprised no one on here seems to have one on the 'Watch + Ink' threads.

I did too! Got it at Barnes n Noble for $35....a great book for the WIS in your life!

[Duende01]

Don't know how much these go for but they are a great compliment to any Sports Model Rolex watch:

[Duende01]

Well, they go for about 50 euros...

I love the idea of the anchors. Great addition to a key ring for any Rolex enthusiast.

Those bezel-style bracelets are nice too. I wouldn’t mind a BLRO bracelet myself.
