Most Expensive Vintage Rolex - “nipple” Dial Rolex

Prototypes are always desirable, especially when they are Rolex, and even more so when they are a popular model like the Submariner. This reference 1680, sold by Christie‘s, was one of three prototypes that were made in white gold. 

What makes this Rolex clone watch very special is that it is not only a rare prototype but also an exceptionally good looking one (to the extent that it is unclear why it never made production). It features an attractive “Thunderbird”-style bezel and beautiful blue “nipple” dial.

The white gold President bracelet seems to have been an afterthought, although original to the watch, actually compliments the Submariner nicely. This watch had a pre-estimate of CHF. 250.000,- – 500.000,- but ended up being sold for CHF 631.500,- including buyer’s premium, making it the most expensive vintage Submariner to date.

Most Expensive Vintage Rolex - “Bao Dai” Rolex

While these are impressive prices paid for rare Rolex, the one that tops them all is the “Bao Dai” Rolex. This yellow gold, full calendar watch with diamond indexes is a rarity by itself, but this particular watch also comes with a Royal pedigree, as it belonged to the last Emperor of Vietnam, who apparently bought the watch in 1954 in Geneva while attending the Geneva convention. More replica Rolex watches.

While the emperor passed away in Paris in 1997, his relatives sold the watch, at Phillips, in 2002 for a then record-setting $235.000,-. 

Now it was back at Phillips, and things went pretty crazy right from the start, where it took mere seconds to break the previous record for most expensive Rolex sold at auction (set at CHF 2.500.000,- about a year ago by a split-seconds ref. 4113 chronograph) and ended up at a CHF 4.300.000,- making it, for now, the most expensive Rolex ever to be auctioned.
