Most Rolex men’s watches are bought in the usual online store but if you want to look at the most expensive Rolex Watch, then you can’t find it there. Usually it’s in the auction houses.

Last May 2011, the most expensive men’s Rolex watch ever sold was purchased at Christie’s. It was a whopping $1.176 million. Geez! That much for a watch? We’ll here’s the reason why it fetched that amount. That 1942 mens Rolex is actually a part of a special collection of watches which was not meant to be sold in the market. This fine set of watches were actually gifts for Italian and British race drivers of that time to monitor their lap time when they do their practice runs.

Wanna know how many pieces Rolex actually made? Only 12. So that’s how rare it is. Moreover, sources say that only 8 are known to exist today. As you know, the more rate it is, the higher price it could go. Plus of course, the Rolex brand has been synonymous to fine expertly crafted watches.
