  1. Rolex Oyster Perpetual 36 126000 steel no-date

    No. 01

    Rolex Oyster Perpetual 36 126000

    The steel 36 that never added a date.

    • No date
    • No cyclops
    • Oyster bracelet

    Why it’s here

    The Rolex Oyster Perpetual 36 126000 leaves three o’clock empty, and there is no cyclops. Originality is the live risk on a marketplace listing, as with any Rolex bought that way.

    Calibre 3230 is the automatic without a date, so there is nothing at three to magnify. The 126000 is in official production on an Oyster bracelet, in a case about 11.7 mm thick and 43.3 mm lug to lug, with 20 mm lugs. Catalogue money sits around 36,512, checked 16 August 2026, not a boutique ticket.

  2. Rolex Datejust 36 126200 steel smooth bezel

    No. 02

    Rolex Datejust 36 126200

    Extra money for a date, on a steel bezel.

    • Date and cyclops
    • Steel bezel
    • Oyster or Jubilee

    Why it’s here

    The Datejust most people draw from memory has a white-gold fluted rim. The Datejust 36 126200 keeps steel.

    Official pages show an Oyster bracelet or a Jubilee. Calibre 3235 is the date movement. Catalogue money sits around 43,303. The extra over the 126000 lives in that band, and it buys a date and a cyclops on this steel watch.
