It is recommended to have your watch overhauled every 5 years. By having your watch serviced regularly you will reduce the chances of needing any serious (and costly) repairs.

In addition to notifying the local authorities, you should contact Rolex who will place the Case Reference Number & Serial Number in their database. Thus, if the watch is ever returned for service you will be notified. With that being said, this website offers a service, whereby you can post (free of charge) information on any stolen Horological items. For more information on this free service click here.

The m-ch requires only a single electrical supply, water and drainage. In a cold winter month the m-ch should use only 348kWhrs and in the summer, using air conditioning, approximately 123 kWhrs. It is possible to be highly energy efficient in the use of an m-ch. Since it has a small air volume, it heats and cools very quickly.

Actually, the difference is very small -- 2mm to be exact. The case of the Date model is 34mm, which is 2mm smaller than the case of the Datejust at 36mm. That, and the fact that the Datejust is available with the Jubilee or Oyster bracelet, while the Date is only available with the Oyster bracelet.

Rolex doesn't release exact numbers, however, according to industry estimates and considering the number of Chronometer certificates issued to Rolex over the past few years, it's safe to assume that Rolex produces somewhere between 700,000 to 800,000 watches annually. On the other hand, it is believed that counterfeiters produce over ten times that number!

According to the U.S. Customs Service, as of January 2003: The Rolex trademark recordation with Customs indicates "Import of Goods Bearing Genuine Trademarks or Trade Names Restricted." This means that genuine Rolex products can only be imported with the permission of the trademark owner, Rolex Watch U.S.A. Inc. A private individual can hand carry one Rolex watch from a trip overseas without obtaining permission. Bring in more than one, and they will be seized as a trademark violation.

This has been a big misconception regarding Rolex watches, "sweeping" versus "ticking". And in the past people used this as a method of identifying counterfeit Rolex watches. The truth is, genuine Rolex watches do, in fact, "tick". However, they tick at around 5 to 6 times per second, so it gives the illusion of "sweeping" or "floating" around the dial. If you watch the second hand with a loupe you can see it.

In a word -- YES! Replica watches are, in fact, counterfeit and therefore are ILLEGAL. Any product that includes copyrigtht and/or trademark names or logos (without the copyright and/or trademark owner's permission) is considered to be counterfeit. On January 17, 2001, the U.S. District Court in Columbia, SC, charged two individuals with selling allegedly counterfeit versions of Rolex watches. Their website claimed the watches to be "replicas".

On early Rolex watches they stamped the Serial Number on the outside of the case back. Then, around the mid-1940s they moved the serial number to the side of the case (between the lugs) at the 6 o'clock position. It is worth mentioning that the Case Reference Number (i.e. the Model Number) is located on the opposite side of the case at the 12 o'clock position -- the bracelet now must be removed to access these numbers.

While most high-end watch companies utilize 1.4435 (or 316L) Stainless Steel, Rolex uses 1.4439 (or 904L) Stainless Steel. While they both have the same grade of hardness, 904L has a slighytly higher nickel discharge, and thus a slightly higher resistance to corrosion. 904L is mainly used in industry applications handling chlorides, sulfer dioxide gas or other toxic materials.
