Q: What size is this watch, and how does it wear? A: The case measures 31 mm. It wears as a refined mid-size watch, making it a strong choice for smaller wrists or anyone who prefers a classic, understated look rather than an oversized fit.
Q: Will this bracelet fit my wrist? A: According to the product information, the bracelet fits a 16 cm wrist or smaller. If your wrist is larger, you may need additional links sourced separately for a comfortable fit.
Q: Is it a problem that this is a pre-owned Rolex without extras? A: Not necessarily. For many buyers, condition, authenticity, fit, and seller trust matter more than having a full set. A watch without extra items can still be a very appealing choice, especially if you are buying it to wear and enjoy rather than purely to collect.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.

Delivery & Returns
Q: Is this Rolex Oyster Perpetual an automatic watch? A: Yes. This is a self-winding mechanical Rolex Oyster Perpetual, so it does not use a battery. If it has stopped after not being worn, wind it manually before setting the time and wearing it again.
Q: How do I wind and set the watch if it has stopped? A: Unscrew the crown, wind it clockwise several turns to start the movement, then set the time and screw the crown back down fully. As with most Rolex automatic watches, wearing it regularly helps keep it wound.
Q: What size is this watch, and how does it wear? A: The case measures 31 mm. It wears as a refined mid-size watch, making it a strong choice for smaller wrists or anyone who prefers a classic, understated look rather than an oversized fit.
Q: Will this bracelet fit my wrist? A: According to the product information, the bracelet fits a 16 cm wrist or smaller. If your wrist is larger, you may need additional links sourced separately for a comfortable fit.
Q: What condition is this watch in? A: It is listed in good condition with light traces of use. The case and bracelet show scratches, while the internal condition is noted as good. As a vintage 1998 watch, light cosmetic wear is to be expected.
Q: Does this watch come with box, papers, or other extras? A: No extra items are included with this piece. Please refer to the product information for the definitive included contents for this watch.
Q: Can I wear this watch in water? A: Rolex Oyster models are designed with water resistance, but with a vintage watch from 1998 it is best to be cautious. Unless it has been recently pressure-tested and confirmed watertight, we recommend avoiding swimming, showering, or prolonged water exposure.
Q: What are the main design details of this watch? A: This watch has a stainless steel case and bracelet, a black dial with Arabic numerals and index hour markers, silver-tone hands, and a fold-over clasp closure. It has the clean, versatile look that makes the Oyster Perpetual such an enduring Rolex model.
Q: Is a 1998 Rolex Oyster Perpetual still suitable for everyday wear? A: Yes, it can make an excellent everyday watch thanks to its simple time-only design and durable steel construction. That said, as a vintage piece it should be worn with sensible care and serviced when needed to keep it performing well.
Q: Is it a problem that this is a pre-owned Rolex without extras? A: Not necessarily. For many buyers, condition, authenticity, fit, and seller trust matter more than having a full set. A watch without extra items can still be a very appealing choice, especially if you are buying it to wear and enjoy rather than purely to collect.
