I am selling a Daytona Ref, 116520 that I happened to buy

I'm selling a Daytona that I miraculously purchased on a trip to Hawaii with my family about 10 years ago! When I went to the official store to buy a Rolex to commemorate my trip, I was told they had a discontinued Daytona model in stock. I immediately persuaded my family to buy it. I'm a first-time luxury watch owner, but I never expected to own a Daytona, and I've only worn this Daytona since then! However, when I reluctantly decided to sell it due to various circumstances, I saw a newspaper flyer with a Rolex upgrade coupon from Jewel Cafe. I decided to contact them. Their excellent service and free appraisal service convinced me to take my Daytona to their store. I knew the Daytona was valuable, but I was surprised that the price was higher than I expected, even though it had been used extensively since I bought it. The warranty card, box, and spare parts were all in good condition, which may have contributed to the good appraisal. I thank Daytona and Jewel Cafe for their support in advance!

I sold my Rolex Daytona

I bought this Rolex Daytona over 10 years ago and planned to wear it for the rest of my life, but due to current circumstances, I've decided to let it go. Since it's such a memorable watch, I wondered which store to sell it to after visiting several buyers' stores. Due to the Daytona's popularity, all the stores I visited offered the best deals. Ultimately, I decided to accept Jewel Café's offer. It's a rare, discontinued Daytona, and I was pleased with the price offered by the knowledgeable staff who recognized it.

I got the best price for my Daytona!

I decided it was time to sell the Daytona I bought about 20 years ago, so I went to Jewel Cafe! I've had my Daytona appraised and offered at several places, but Jewel Cafe offered the best price, and I really appreciate their efforts. Not only that, I didn't get bored during the appraisal by the very knowledgeable watch staff, and their store is more comfortable than others! I'll be buying a new watch with the money from the sale of this Daytona. Thank you, Jewel Cafe!

I bought my Rolex Daytona.

I received this Daytona from my older brother to celebrate my first job. I considered giving it to my children because it was so nostalgic, but they said they didn't need it. Wondering what to do with it, I came across a Jewel Café flyer in the newspaper mentioning a Daytona, so I decided to visit the store. The staff not only provided excellent service but were also very knowledgeable about Rolexes. They also offered a price that exceeded my expectations given the Daytona's popularity. They even explained each detail carefully, which put me at ease and made the decision to sell my Daytona at Jewel Café.

I used the money to buy a new Daytona.

I came to the shop after hearing from an acquaintance that he was selling his Daytona for a high price. I was considering a trade-in when I was considering buying a new Daytona. Previously, another vendor had come to my house, and frankly, they were very unprofessional and aggressive. That's why I chose Jewel Café because of the good reviews and comments from others. It's located in a commercial building near my house, so I immediately called them and went there. The staff was very friendly. I ultimately decided to sell it here because they have extensive knowledge in the field, and the price they offered matched the price they advertised on their homepage, which proves their honesty. Thank you for everything!

The Daytona was inherited from my father

I inherited a Daytona that my father had purchased as a wish when he was young and served as president of the company. Because it was so precious to me, I didn't plan to sell it but simply wanted to find out the price, as I'd heard Rolex prices were rising. Despite that, the staff offered their excellent service, changing my impression of pawn shops. Although I only had my Daytona appraised this time, I plan to return when the staff I met today are on duty and have my other watches appraised as well.

I am selling my Rolex Daytona for the best price

I decided to sell my Daytona here after visiting several other stores! This is a memorable item as it was inherited from my father, so I visited several resale and resale shops in the prefecture hoping to get the best deal. I actually went to Jewel Café initially, but they still gave me excellent service even though I told them I would check other stores as well, unlike the other store where they just treated me rudely and caused me a lot of trouble, which is why I decided to sell my Daytona to Jewel Café. Not only did they offer a better price than other stores, I was also very satisfied with their service! I will definitely come back to them when I have other items to sell.

Selling my Rolex Daytona

I brought a Rolex Daytona that I bought with my first paycheck. I worked hard to get this watch, so I wasn't sure whether to sell it or not, but since I wanted a new watch, I decided to sell it to cover the cost. This watch is dear to me because I've worn it for a long time, but the price they offered me was good enough for me to let it go. The staff was very attentive when I wasn't sure what to do, and I was able to sell it without worry. I'll be back again when I have something else.

at a higher price

How to Sell Rolex Daytona at a High Price〈 1 〉

Sell your Rolex as soon as possible if you have decided that you won’t be using it

The price of a Rolex varies depending on the model, but it can also fluctuate depending on the production year and reference number. For example, popular models with a relatively newer year and reference number can fetch a higher market price. Also, since demand tends to vary depending on the model, we recommend that you sell your Rolex as soon as you have decided that you will not be using it.

How to Sell Rolex Daytona at a High Price〈 2 〉

Sell your Rolex with its warranty card and accessories for a higher price

Be sure to keep the warranty card, box, spare parts, and instruction manual that came with your Rolex when you purchased it. Without the warranty card, you may not be able to receive an authorized service or repair. Therefore, the purchase price of a Rolex will vary greatly depending on whether it has a warranty card. In addition, if the watch does not come with spare links, this limits its range of adjustable sizes, which may result in a lower price. That’s why it is advisable to keep all accessories carefully without throwing them away.

Remove the dirt from your Rolex and keep it clean to sell it at a higher price

The key to increasing the appraisal value of a Rolex is to clean it as much as possible beforehand. Even a simple cleaning at home, such as wiping the glass surface or removing dirt from the crevices of the strap, can impact the appraisal value. If your Rolex has not been serviced for a long time, it is a good idea to just bring it in as is. Of course, a watch that has been serviced will fetch a higher price, but Rolexes can be expensive to repair and it may take many months. Considering the downsides, it is recommended to bring in the watch without getting it serviced.

Rolex Daytona's trivia
of the week

Daytona's exciting diversity is born from evolution.

The Daytona was born in 1963. After several prototype models, the Daytona became popular as a pioneering racing chronograph. Its movement was the hand-wound Cal. 72 series manufactured by Valjoux, which was used in many other chronographs at the time. However, Rolex had switched to a unique method of adjusting the watch's advance or retreat with a temporary screw rather than a setting pin. The first model was equipped with a free-spring balance, still considered a state-of-the-art mechanism today. After minor modifications, the Cal. 722-1, Cal. 727—the final version of the Cal. 72 series—was installed in the second-generation Daytona.

In addition to its high beat frequency of 6 vibrations per second instead of 5, this watch also featured a Kif-Ultraflex shock absorber. This renowned model continued to power the Daytona until 1988, when production of the hand-wound version was discontinued. The hand-winding Daytona's appearance is quite different from the automatic Daytona, with a choice of stainless steel or plastic bezels, and boasts a unique design and texture that can't be described simply by the word "retro."

Because Rolex Japan has discontinued repair services for hand-winding models, there are concerns about their maintenance, so it's important to ensure after-sales service is available when needed at the time of purchase. However, the joy of owning a hand-winding Daytona still outweighs these concerns! The most popular 3rd generation debuted in 1970. With the introduction of screw-down pushers and the word "OYSTER" on the dial, it boasted the highest specifications of a hand-winding Daytona! Collectors enjoy the diversity resulting from the differences in various details, making it a truly delightful pleasure for collectors to own. In 1988, this model evolved into the Zenith-based Cal.4030, resulting in the El Primero, and with it the Daytona entered the era of automatic winding.

This new model passed chronometer standards and major design changes were made, including the addition of a metal frame to the dial, while the plastic bezel disappeared with the introduction of the automatic winding model. In 2000, the current Daytona was introduced. The Cal. 4130, developed in-house by Rolex, broke new ground in functionality by increasing the watch's power reserve, ease of maintenance, and durability. Since then, the watch has undergone a process of refinement in every detail, including the enlargement of the hands and the refinement of the bracelet. Then, in 2013, a 50th-anniversary Daytona model was launched with an entire ceramic bezel, not just the surface. With the announcement of the stainless steel model in 2016, production of the metal bezel finally ended. For 53 years since its first generation, the Daytona has always pursued the highest precision as a racing chronograph. To achieve this, they strengthened the exterior and refined the movement. The history of the Daytona is the evolution of the chronograph itself.
