About

Hello...

I’m Ben. I’m the researcher, writer, and principle developer behind rolex-collection-journal.com. 

I want to make sure you don’t over-pay for any Rolex, so I run this in my spare time. 

I monitor real UK sales data in bulk, and publish it each month.

First I used that to inform my own buying and selling, and now I’ve decided to share it.

Model-specific data is reserved for paid subscribers.

How does Rolex Collection Journal work?

The data

I only present price data for Rolex watches that are:

  • actually sold by verified UK dealers or marketplaces (not just listed) 
  • in good (or better than good) condition
  • offered with their original box and original papers (including guarantee).

The process

Each month, I follow these steps for the 470 top Rolex references:

  • curate data on newly listed UK stock
  • curate data on withdrawn (sold) UK stock
  • surface 10th, 50th and 90th percentile sold prices
  • provide supplementary insights on differences between added and withdrawn inventory.

Why buyers trust rolex-collection-journal.com

  • Rolex-collection-journal is fully independent
  • I am not affilliated with any Rolex dealer
  • I do not hold Rolex stock
  • I know Rolex, so I focus on this brand only
  • I’m transparent about the major price impacts of minor stylitic differences. 

Most importantly of all – I update this every single month. No out of date intel. 

The result? You see what a fair Rolex price really looks like.
