Individual sale results behind our data, from eBay and auction houses. Each watch differs in condition and set.

Forum rows are posts on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums and WatchUSeek that the seller marked sold. The amount is the listed price when marked sold, not a confirmed sale price, and forum rows do not feed our price.

Median price per month or quarter. A point needs at least 3 records in its month or quarter; a gap in a line means too few records, and nothing is filled in. Forum prices are the price a seller listed on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums or WatchUSeek when the post was marked sold, not a confirmed sale price.

The Oyster Perpetual 36 at a glance

The Oyster Perpetual 36, reference 126000, has a 36 mm Oystersteel case with a smooth, polished, domed bezel, and it runs on the automatic calibre 3230, an in-house Superlative Chronometer movement. Rolex offers it in many dial colours, so the dial is an important part of describing any particular watch.

We don't list a nickname for the 126000. Listings usually identify it by reference and dial colour.

Where the 126000 price stands right now:

  • Fair value now: $6,900–$11,500.
  • Midpoint of recent market prices: $9,200.
  • Newest observation: October 16, 2026.
  • Observations behind the estimate: 390.

What affects the price

Dial colour. The same reference carries very different dials, and some are much more sought after than others. Compare only like with like.

Condition. Ranges by condition (a condition shows a range only once it has enough results of its own):

  • Unworn: $8,000–$11,200.
  • Excellent: $7,650–$10,600.
  • Good: $7,400–$10,000.
  • Fair: not enough market data yet.

A polished smooth bezel shows scratches easily, which buyers notice in photos.

Box and papers. A full set with a recent card date sells most easily.

Retail reference. €6,500 (retail list price in France per 41watch and Monochrome Watches, January 2026).

Recent movement. Change over the past year: +5.2% over 12 months.

Tips for buyers

  • Confirm the reference is 126000 with the calibre 3230.
  • Pick the dial first, then compare prices only against the same dial.
  • Check the card date and match the serial to the watch.
  • Compare the asking price with our fair-value range, and with the range for its condition where one is shown.

Tips for sellers

  • Put the dial colour in the listing title.
  • Include box, card and receipt.
  • Don't polish the case or bezel before selling.
  • Use the published price data on this page as a starting point, and get more than one offer.
