8 Pieces for Beginner Jewelry Collectors Under $10k

1.) The Rolex Datejust Watch

While the name ‘Rolex’ may induce worries of high price tags, there are plenty of more accessible and affordable used Rolex watches for sale. From the Rolex 116233 Datejust to the Rolex Daytona Panda, you can find a wide variety of Rolex models for sale if you know the right place to look.

One of our favorite options in the Gray & Sons archives is the Rolex Datejust 68240 Stainless Steel Dial Automatic Watch. This eye-catching timepiece features the classic luxurious aesthetic of the Rolex Watch Company paired with durable stainless steel with captivating silver stick dial.

A Special Note Regarding Rolex Watches
When searching for a used Rolex for sale, it’s important to keep a few key details in mind. Many Rolex models do retain their value over time but they can be overpriced at times. Keep an eye out for Rolex pre-owned models such as the Rolex Submariner Green or an eye-catching Rolex Datejust for the perfect addition to your collection.

If you prefer shopping for a piece in person, you can always head online and search for a ‘Rolex dealer near me.’ Make sure that the dealer is offering certified Rolex for sale to ensure that you are getting the real deal rather than a knock-off. And if you are feeling stuck, we are happy to help at Gray & Sons. Get in touch with our experienced team and we’ll do our best to assist.
