  • Rolex model numbers

    I just realised it...maybe some of you guys know. It maybe old stuff for some of you guys,but it's new to me and some others.The last number of any Rolex model number will depend on the material used for the watch. Here's what I got so far. Hope it helps!

    0- Chronometer in SS(Full)
    1- Chronometer in SS and Pink Gold
    2- Chronometer in SS and Platinum
    3- Chronometer in SS and Yellow Gold
    4- Chronometer in SS and White Gold Bezel
    5- Chronometer in Pink Gold
    6- Chornometer in Platinum
    7- ??
    8- Chronometer in Yellow Gold,and Tridor model
    9- Chronometer in White Gold

    Cheers!

                          got a question on bracelet and clasp.
                          my explorer 2 says 78790A (OP11) - double clasp
                          my gmt 2 says 78360 (CL1) - single clasp
                          The links looks the same. My question is can i buy a double clasp like the one in my exp 2 to fit on the bracelet on my gmt? any idea how much?

                            Hi Fellows,

                            May I know is there any info on number of pieces out for each series beside knowing the series for the year out?

                            I am trying to know the number of rolex pieces out for each series like Pam watches etc.
