    Rolex Jubilee Bracelet Variations & How To Determine Their Era

    Posted on April 17th, 2017 by Joe G

    Rolex watches are some of the world’s most revered timepieces and worn & collected by many since the early 1900’s. There are many styles & models available; some vintage that can be obtained for as little as a few hundred dollars and some vintage models can exceed $250,000.00, and the ever changing modern versions.

     

    Rolex Watches are worn by sport figures, movie stars, musicians, heads of countries, and by any who may want a quality precision timepiece. There are various models of Rolex and styles and bands as well, like Jubilee, Oyster, President band. When looking at a Pre-owned Rolex one of the quickest ways to determine the era is to look at the band. In these examples I demonstrate the Jubilee Band from the 1960’s “C” shape, 1970’s “Oval” shape and into the modern era “D” shape.

     

    Of course the best way to determine era is to remove the band and see the serial number on the side of the case to determine the exact year/date , but on a first glance the band can give you a good idea of the era 1960’s. 1970’s, 1980’s to date.

    Had a Great Experience

    I have dealt in coins and metals since the 80s. Had dealings with many dealers. Got scammed by a few. Chicago Gold is the only one I would recommend to my family or friends. Have your valuables appraised by them before you sell.

    I'll be back

    Cashed in some silver coins and received a very fair exchange. Joe and Chris, were very friendly, and comfortable to deal with. Came back with some jewelry, and received a rough appraisal...again no pressure.

    I would do business with them again

    I found the Chicago Gold Gallery to be a very honest and reputable shop. I would highly recommend this store to anyone buying and selling their possessions.
