In the world of luxury, Swiss timepieces, Rolex stands as an emblem of precision, durability, and ageless elegance. For those seeking the prestige of a Rolex timepiece with added value and assurance, the Rolex Certified Pre-Owned (RCPO) programme offers an exceptional opportunity.
This initiative ensures that pre-owned Rolex watches meet the brand's exacting standards, by being examined by a Rolex-trained watchmaker, providing buyers with confidence and peace of mind.
The Timepiece of Ageless Sophistication

Founded in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf, Rolex has been at the forefront of Swiss watchmaking innovation. From pioneering the first waterproof wristwatch, the Oyster, in 1926, to the development of the Perpetual rotor self-winding mechanism in 1931, Rolex has consistently set benchmarks in horology. The brand's commitment to excellence has solidified its reputation as a symbol of achievement and sophistication.
The Rolex Certified Pre-Owned programme ensures that all Rolex timepieces, whether vintage or modern, are held to the same high standard.
What is Rolex Certified Pre-Owned?
The Rolex Certified Pre-Owned programme is a testament to the brand's dedication to quality and authenticity. It allows customers to purchase pre-owned Rolex watches that have been inspected, serviced, and certified.
These timepieces are available exclusively through Official Rolex Retailers, like us at Michael Spiers, who have been authorised to participate in the programme. With expert Rolex watchmakers, we can ensure that your Certified Pre-Owned Rolex matches the standards of Rolex.
Each certified timepiece comes with a two-year international guarantee, defining Rolex's confidence in the enduring quality of its iconic Swiss-made watches.
