When women look for a watch to wear daily, Rolex is often the brand they choose because Rolex has found the perfect combination of quality and style: timeless but stunning designs hide a movement that is ‘yours faithfully’ until the end. Read along to discover which are the best Rolex watches for women and choose your favourite!
Oyster Perpetual Datejust
18K gold and stainless steel Rolex Datejust automatic women's watch with diamond bezel
The Rolex Datejust is one of the most recognisable watches, thanks to the window dial that indicates the date. It was the first self-winding wristwatch to do so when introduced in 1945. As part of the Oyster Perpetual family, the Datejust also features a screw-down crown preventing water from reaching the mechanism of the watch. The Datejust is a highly classic and functional watch with a design that will never go out of style! For the ultimate Rolex experience you might want to wear the bi-colour version: a combination of gold an steel that has been a signature feature of Rolex since 1933. But there are also more feminine models, such as the Lady Datejust which is a little bit smaller, or this beautiful one with a diamond bezel!
Cosmograph Daytona
Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Everose
The contrast between the traditionally masculine and traditionally feminine is a combination that works really well in fashion and of course in watches. Which is why the Cosmograph Daytona looks perfect on a woman’s wrist, especially when it is in rose gold, like this beautiful 2008 rose gold Cosmograph Daytona which was sold on a Catawiki auction in 2017. The robust, masculine design of the Daytona gets a feminine touch in rose gold and makes it extra suitable for a woman’s wrist.
Pearlmaster
1997 Rolex Pearlmaster
One of the best Rolex watches for women when it comes to femininity is the Pearlmaster. Rolex calls it the brand's 'crowning jewellery watch' thanks to the rich decoration with gems such as diamonds, rubies and sapphires. The rounded design can be both subtle and elegant or sparkly and extravagant - there are many Pearlmasters to choose from! Both are a good investment too. Pearlmaster watches do very well on our Catawiki auctions, like this 1997 Pearlmaster in 18K gold with a subtle dial which sold for €16,140.
Yours faithfully
Vintage Ladies' Rolex Art Deco watch
There are many more types of Rolex watches that are waiting to be ‘yours faithfully’ for many years, serving both as a beautiful piece of jewellery and a practical tool. If you're a sportswomen or an driving enthusiast, you will definitely enjoy the technical movements in Rolex watches such as the Submariner or GMT. Or perhaps you are into vintage: an 1920s Art Deco watch like this one that sold on Catawiki in 2017 is a great accessory or collector’s item!
Whether you'd like a men’s Rolex watch with a feminine touch, or a Lady Datejust decorated with diamonds, some of the best Rolex watches for women are auctioned right here on Catawiki. Keep an eye on our Ladies' Watch auctions or our Rolex Watch auctions to find yourself a new companion for life!
