    Rolex Oyster Perpetual 36 126000

    The 36 mm that leaves 3, 6 and 9 off.

    • No 3-6-9
    • Oysterclasp
    • 36 mm

    Why it’s here

    The Rolex Oyster Perpetual 36 left on the shortlist is 126000. Originality is the live risk on a marketplace listing, as it is for any Rolex bought this way.

    About 36,512 for 126000 is the catalogue figure on a 36 mm that uses an Oysterclasp. The dial does not carry 3, 6 and 9.
