With less than two months left in the year, it’s about that time to start thinking about what gifts you’ll be getting your loved ones—particularly the big gift. And while there are plenty of options to choose from, you’d be hard-pressed to find a present as perfect as a Rolex watch. So whether it’s for your spouse, partner, child, parent or anyone else, witness the joy wash over their face as they flip open that green box to reveal a Rolex watch.

A Rolex is a gift that’ll impress

For as long as most can remember, Rolex has always stood for perfection and prestige. Not only has Rolex consistently been the top high-end watch company for decades, it’s also one of the top luxury brands across all segments, period.

Rolex is known the world over for its use of the finest materials and technical expertise. Each timepiece is built in-house by the very best watchmakers with no detail left unturned. As a brand that boasts a rich history of producing some of the most iconic watches, a recipient of a Rolex will certainly appreciate their exceptional gift.

A Rolex is a gift that can be enjoyed every day

Let’s face it, some gifts, while great in the moment, have the burden of being seasonal or limited. Cashmere? Great for colder months, but useless when the temperatures start to rise again. Extravagant jewelry? Fantastic for special occasions but will probably spend most of its life tucked away in a jewelry box. A Rolex however, can be enjoyed pretty much every single minute of every single day.

The appeal of a Rolex is that it can be worn in almost any situation without every being out of place. Whether you opt for a Rolex dress watch or a sports model, they match virtually any outfit or setting—the perfect combination of luxury and versatility.

A Rolex is an emotional gift

If you ever comment on someone’s watch, chances are you’ll hear a meaningful story about who gave them that timepiece and why it’s so important to them. Fine watches have always been a go-to gift a parent gives a child to commemorate an important milestone or passed down from grandparent to grandchild or a token of love between couples. Also, Rolexes are often family heirlooms that are particularly treasured for their emotional value.

Whoever would be lucky enough to receive a Rolex from you will undoubtedly think of you every time they glance at their cherished watch.

A Rolex will never go out of style

Rolex has been around for well over a century and it’s a company that prides itself on iconic watch silhouettes that have largely remained unchanged. Although Rolex watches have enjoyed plenty of technical improvements and modern modifications over the years, they are still instantly recognizable no matter the era they were made.

The flagship Rolex Datejust and Day-Date dress watches look about the same as when they were first introduced in 1945 and 1956 respectively. This goes for the sportier Rolex Submariners, GMT-Master and Daytona watches too—a true testament to their enduring appeal. You can choose between vintage or contemporary Rolex models while knowing that these classic timepieces will always be on-trend.

A Rolex is a gift that’ll last

Unlike the latest tech toys and trendy wardrobe must-haves, Rolex watches are built to last. With proper servicing and care, it’s not unreasonable to expect them to last almost indefinitely. In fact, Rolexes often times outlast their original owners and are subsequently enjoyed by future generations.

Rolexes are not only carefully crafted to withstand daily use, but in some cases—like their robust tool watches—can also tolerate more extreme environments. The Oyster cases found on Rolexes are renowned for their resistance to water thanks to their airtight construction. Furthermore, the automatic watch movements found in modern Rolex watches are equipped with mechanisms to bump up their endurance to some impact, while still maintaining accurate time.

Contemporary Rolex models also feature scratchproof sapphire crystal and some of the newest Rolex sports watches are furnished with ceramic bezels that are resistant to scratching and fading.

A Rolex from the pre-owned market is even better

Now that you’ve decided that a Rolex would be the best gift to give this holiday season, you’ll want to make sure that you find that perfect piece. Not only does the pre-owned luxury watch market give you significant savings over retail, it also offers a much larger variety.

The secondary market for Rolex watches has the benefit of including highly sought-after vintage references in addition to discontinued products. Furthermore, because of the substantially lower costs of buying a pre-owned Rolex, you can choose a more premium Rolex model that would otherwise be out of reach. So, sit back and browse through TrueFacet’s wide range of Rolex watches to find the best gift for the holiday season.
