What Year Was my Rolex Watch Made ?
An important factor in determining the value of your Rolex watch is it's age . The chart below indicates the serial numbers through the years . The serial number is most often between the lugs on the number "6" side of the case . We say "most often" as certain older or "dress watch " models may have the number on the case back . Also , around 2009 Rolex began placing the serial numbers on the inner bezel , or the surface that immediately adjoins the dial .
