Which Rolex is the best-selling in our country? And which Rolex are we most familiar with?
The representative model of the Rolex Classic line is the Datejust. These days, There is a tendency to focus more on the Professional line, But in fact, The foundation of Rolex is also the Datejust and it accounts for a large proportion of the products released.
Imagine you finally managed to enter a Rolex boutique and only one or two Datejust models are left in the showcase. Since it is a rare opportunity, You want to buy a watch, But with so many combinations of bezel, Material, Index, And dial color, You may wonder if you will lose out by buying this watch. Will there be a premium? These are the concerns you may have.
In reality, How many chances does an ordinary person have to purchase a luxury watch? You have no choice but to be careful with your choice. Let's look at what you need to consider in advance when buying a Datejust.
First, You need to choose the size when buying a watch. In the past, There was only 36mm, But now 41mm has been newly released, So the range of choices has widened.

For women, The Lady Datejust at 28mm, As well as 31mm and 36mm, Are all suitable options. For men, It is common to choose between 36mm and 41mm.
If you are a man who often wears suits, You can choose the size depending on whether you want your watch to be visible. If you want your watch to stand out, Choose 41mm. If you want a size that fits neatly under your sleeve, 36mm is recommended.
There was a time when models made entirely of gold were produced, But steel and Rolesor are overwhelmingly more popular. (Even just in terms of price.)

Everyone has their own preferred color, But if you try it on in person, You can find the color that best matches your skin tone, So we recommend trying it before purchasing. Also, Keep in mind that the price varies slightly depending on the material.

At this point, You also need to choose the bezel. There are three types: the most basic smooth bezel, The domed bezel with a rounded curve, And the Rolex signature fluted bezel with a serrated design.
Finally, Once you choose the color of the dial and the design of the index, This process is complete.

There are a variety of options for the dial, From material to color. One tip is that eye-catching colors may become tiresome more quickly. For the index, You can choose from bar, Roman numerals, Or even simple yet luxurious diamond points.
So among these many Datejust combinations, Which models are popular? For Datejust models, Which have less premium than the Professional line, If you remember the following three points, You can at least avoid a loss when purchasing.
1. Jubilee bracelet
2. Fluted bezel
3. Cyclops lens

Doesn't this look familiar? This is probably the type of watch that comes to mind when you think of Rolex.

Here is the conclusion. When buying a Rolex, It is hard to say that you do not care at all about others recognizing it. If you buy a model that is unmistakably a Rolex, Your first purchase will not be a failure.
However, VIVER respects your preferences. If you look closely, A domed bezel with an Oyster bracelet is also beautiful, And a dial in a unique color might suit your taste perfectly. Would you like to experience the endless charm of the Datejust?
