Bought here, the buyer's premium, shipping, and import VAT and duty to Denmark add about 63% to the hammer. Stop at about USD 10,500 and you pay 20% less than a dealer's USD 21,367: a fair discount for buying without a dealer's warranty or return. A rough guide from the 15 most similar Rolex Day Date listings (USD 21,367 – 30,851), not the same reference; the listing doesn't say steel or gold, so we take the cheaper quarter of what dealers ask.

Before you bidfive checks
  • The seller guarantees in writing that the watch is genuine and takes it back if it is not.
  • The photos show the case back, clasp, and the serial and reference numbers between the lugs. Ask for them if not.
  • You know every fee: the buyer's premium (often 20–25% online), shipping and insurance, and import VAT.
  • "New", "polished" and "electronically tested" prove nothing: polished means it has been worked on, and an electronic test checks gold, not a watch.
  • Decide your maximum before the sale and don't go above it.
