Not to worry, that\u2019s why we\u2019re here, providing you a quick reminder of the other noteworthy items in the brand\u2019s current and recent lineup. These are the joys of a legacy brand of this size &#8211; given how many references get launched each year, there\u2019s always something of interest floating around.

The combination of dressy Datejust style with a functional bezel is brilliant, out of the ordinary, and just plain weird, but it\u2019s also a style that brings a touch of functionality to the dress watch scene. Despite more relaxed modern trends, many will argue that a dive watch is not acceptable for black tie events, so the Rolex Turn-O-Graph is a practical way to have a timing function on a watch that otherwise entirely passes for a dress watch. These models lasted in the brand\u2019s catalog much longer than most are aware of, and many examples can be purchased for little more than a standard Datejust.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>ROLEX YACHT-MASTER ref. 116622\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-41162\" title=\"Rolex Yacht-Master 40 ref. 116622\u00a0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Yacht-Master-116622-131676.jpg\" alt=\"Most Overlooked Rolex Watches Yacht-Master 40 116622\u00a0\" width=\"250\" height=\"470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Yacht-Master-116622-131676.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Yacht-Master-116622-131676-160x300.jpg 160w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Yacht-Master-116622-131676-768x1444.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Yacht-Master-116622-131676-545x1024.jpg 545w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Yacht-Master-116622-131676-202x380.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Given all of the love that the Submariner gets, the Yacht-Master (outside of the new 42mm version) is mostly an undersung gem in the Rolex catalog. It\u2019s definitely an acquired taste &#8211; its bezel design is a distinct one and can be seen by some as a bit too flashy. However, on the other hand, the combination of a slate dial with a punchy blue seconds hand is as funky as some of Rolex\u2019s more colorful Oyster Perpetual models to have launched in the last 5 or 6 years, and this Rolesium model adds a splash of luxury with its solid platinum bezel fitted to an otherwise stainless steel case and bracelet design.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>ROLEX AIR-KING ref. 116900<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-41160\" title=\"Rolex Air-King ref. 116900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Air-King-116900-131353.jpg\" alt=\"Top Overlooked Rolex Watches Air-King 116900\" width=\"250\" height=\"470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Air-King-116900-131353.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Air-King-116900-131353-160x300.jpg 160w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Air-King-116900-131353-768x1444.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Air-King-116900-131353-545x1024.jpg 545w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Air-King-116900-131353-202x380.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Perspective on this version of the Air-King is starting to shift as other stainless steel Rolex models have become increasingly less attainable; however, it still remains an unsung hero for far more than just its \u2018next best thing\u2019 positioning. You see, this generation of the Air-King runs the same Caliber 3131 movement as the Milgauss and even uses the same antimagnetic case, making it a higher spec model with increased magnetic resistance that is priced significantly below other watches in the brand&#8217;s Professional lineup. Not everyone is a fan of its pilot-themed looks, but for those wanting something a bit outside of Rolex&#8217;s standard aesthetic, it\u2019s a solid way to get your hands on a piece from the brand that you\u2019re less likely to cross paths with on any given day.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>ROLEX CELLINI ref. 50515\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-41159\" title=\"Rolex Cellini ref. 50515\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Cellini-50515-130816.jpg\" alt=\"Best Undervalued Rolex Watches Cellini 50515\" width=\"250\" height=\"470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Cellini-50515-130816.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Cellini-50515-130816-160x300.jpg 160w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Cellini-50515-130816-768x1444.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Cellini-50515-130816-545x1024.jpg 545w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Cellini-50515-130816-202x380.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Somehow, there are a ton of Rolex Cellini models that remain hugely underappreciated by the watch community at large. Sure, they don\u2019t have the \u2018icon status\u2019 of the Submariner or Daytona, but on the flip side, they\u2019re finished to the same exacting standards of any of their counterparts, if not better. In the Cellini line, you\u2019ll find more complex dials (like the guilloche dial seen here), as well as other detailed bits of finishing. Add to that the fact that Cellini watches are crafted from precious metals which makes them the ultimate sleeper Rolex models &#8211; if you know, you know &#8211; and you\u2019ve got a real home run on your hands.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>ROLEX SKY-DWELLER ref. 326933<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-41158\" title=\"Rolex Sky-Dweller ref. 326933\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Sky-Dweller-326933-131660.jpg\" alt=\"Most Undervalued Rolex Watches Sky-Dweller 326933\" width=\"250\" height=\"470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Sky-Dweller-326933-131660.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Sky-Dweller-326933-131660-160x300.jpg 160w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Sky-Dweller-326933-131660-768x1444.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Sky-Dweller-326933-131660-545x1024.jpg 545w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/zRolex-Sky-Dweller-326933-131660-202x380.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Last but certainly not least, The Rolex Sky-Dweller is a beast of an offering that has never really caught on in the grand scheme of things. You\u2019re looking at what is effectively the brand\u2019s most complex watch in current production. At a glance, it doesn\u2019t look all that complicated, but you\u2019re looking at both an annual calendar and a GMT watch in a less-than-conventional package. In production since 2012, several variants have hit the market, including steel, white gold, and two-tone (Rolesor) models. What\u2019s surprising is the fact that the two-tone stainless steel and yellow gold (Yellow Rolesor) models remain the most affordable of the pack, trading hands for thousands of dollars less than their White Rolesor (stainless steel with white gold bezel) and solid gold siblings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These days, all of the conversations about Rolex revolve around the world of steel sports watches in some shape or [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":41164,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2276],"tags":[],"ppma_author":[2286],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Most Underrated Rolex Watches - Top 5 Revealed - Bob&#039;s Watches<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Many of the conversations about Rolex surround the brand&#039;s steel sports watches, but there are a number of overlooked models that you should be considering.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/buying-guides\/5-best-overlooked-rolex-watches.html\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Most Underrated Rolex Watches - Top 5 Revealed - Bob&#039;s Watches\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Many of the conversations about Rolex surround the brand&#039;s steel sports watches, but there are a number of overlooked models that you should be considering.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/buying-guides\/5-best-overlooked-rolex-watches.html\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Bob&#039;s Watches\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/bobswatches\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2020-03-19T13:00:26+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-09-09T22:16:17+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Rolex_Yachtmaster_268622-5D3_8214-Edit-1.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1200\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Paul Altieri\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@bobswatches\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@bobswatches\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Paul Altieri\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"5 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/buying-guides\/5-best-overlooked-rolex-watches.html#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/buying-guides\/5-best-overlooked-rolex-watches.html\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Paul Altieri\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/#\/schema\/person\/22b37643d599dce1a5947061baa91033\"},\"headline\":\"Most Underrated Rolex Watches &#8211;
