Investment scorecard

Momentum50Measured price direction: the median recorded sale of the last 4 months against the median of 8 to 12 months ago. 50 means flat; small samples are pulled toward 50.
Liquidity45How easily it sells: recorded sales in the last 12 months (300 or more scores 100) and eBay's 90-day sell-through rate.
Scarcity100Demand against supply. For modern pieces, how far the market sits above or below current retail, plus a lift if production has ended. For vintage, how rarely one comes up for sale.
Value entry44Where the latest quarter's median sale sits inside its own 3-year range. Buying near the low scores high; buying at the high scores low.
Condition safety91How safe a typical example is: the age of the design, plus how tightly sale prices cluster (a wide spread means condition and originality swing the price).

The story

Unisex 36mm sizing makes this the most versatile Rolex in the catalog, and the turquoise dial, still in the catalog in 2026, became a phenomenon.

The new 2026 Jubilee motif dial is one to watch.

The 36mm version of the color-dial phenomenon, and the turquoise one is the watch that broke the market's brain: a sub-$6,000 steel watch that traded at several times retail at the 2022 peak.

The smarter buy was always the quieter dials, silver, black, green, at pennies above retail. For 2026, alongside its Oyster centenary releases, Rolex added a lacquered Jubilee motif dial with the Rolex name repeated in ten colors.

Our verdict: Great first Rolex. The anniversary dial is the speculative angle here.
