Common questions
Before you ask.
When was the Rolex 116520 produced?
The 116520 was produced from 2000 to 2016.
What movement does the Rolex 116520 use?
The Rolex 116520 runs the Cal. 4130, an automatic movement.
How do I check a Rolex 116520 with Watch Safe?
Look up the watch's serial number in the Watch Safe registry to see whether a record exists or a theft flag is attached. A registry search identifies records for a specific serial; it does not authenticate the watch. Authentication is performed in person by an independent expert authenticator, and Watch Safe records and publishes the result.
