When it comes to luxury watches, Rolex is one of the most popular and long-standing brands on the market. Rolex’s commitment to tradition and craftsmanship helps their timepieces stand out among the rest and retain market value among collectors and fans. The Rolex diamond watch is an exquisite representation of the entire Rolex brand. Diamond Rolexes showcase the brand’s craftsmanship and quality. They also exude a sense of luxury and style and retain a high market value year after year. Explore what makes Rolex diamond watches so popular and which models are excellent additions to your collection.

Craftsmanship and Quality

When considering diamond timepieces from the top luxury watch brands, Rolex diamond watches are among the best. The Rolex brand is known for exceptional craftsmanship and quality, both manufacturing their watches and the material used. A Rolex watch can take a year to assemble, including the research and development process, hand manufacturing, and quality testing. They use in-house foundry to create precious metals used in their watches. Rolex also hires in-house gemologists to test the diamonds and other gemstones they set into their pieces.

When you buy a Rolex diamond watch, you can ensure that each diamond is tested for authenticity and quality. Rolex’s geologists test the diamonds using X-ray machines to detect possible fakes. Once a diamond has passed this test, Rolex employs artisan jewelers to select only the clearest white diamonds to be cut and set into the face or bezel of the watch.

Sense of Luxury and Style

Even without diamonds, a Rolex watch exudes a sense of sophistication and wealth. Add diamonds into the design, and you get the highest caliber timepiece with a noticeable sense of luxury and style. Diamonds have long been considered the standard in precious gemstones. As early as 4 B.C.E., diamonds were traded among ancient civilizations. Diamonds symbolize peace, healing, commitment, strength, and protection in many cultures and are associated with wealth and royalty worldwide.

When you wear a Rolex watch with a diamond-studded bezel or diamond numerals, you claim this luxurious and high-standing connection for yourself. Diamonds on a Rolex also give you a stylish, timeless appearance. Diamonds never go out of fashion. Their clear, sparkling appearance works with any ensemble and lends a classy touch to even the most basic outfit.

A diamond Rolex like the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Champagne Diamond SKU116503CD is the perfect mix of steel, gold, and subtle sparkle to go with a three-piece suit or down-to-earth tracksuit.

High Market Value

Rolex diamond watches steal the spotlight with their high market value that increases over time. Rolex watches, in general, increase in value as long as they are kept in good condition, with popular pre-owned Rolex pieces claiming well above their original asking price.

For popular diamond Rolex watches like the Rolex Day-Date 36 SKU128235CD, the diamond numerals only increase the market value of the watch. Day-Date and Daytona models are considered some of the best Rolex investments in terms of resale value, so buying a diamond-studded version of these popular models is an excellent way to increase the quality and value of your luxury watch collection.
