Rolex is synonymous to luxury and fame. It is allegedly the most esteemed watch brand that has set a standard in the horology industry with its avant-garde creations over the years.
However, it is indeed a matter of patience to acquire a Rolex watch. The most sought-after Rolexes can have you on a waiting list of up to nearly 5 to 6 years. And it is obvious as demand surpasses supply.
Why Rolex has so much craze? This Geneva-based Swiss watchmaker produces timepieces with incredible durability and precision. They are Superlative Chronometer certified. However, another significant fact that escalates the demand of Rolex watches is –
Rolex is one of the few watch brands whose watches retain value and also, appreciate over time, making them worthy of investment.
Nevertheless, the brand introduced its new 2020 watches that come with the incredible power of attraction, and you cannot afford to miss it. So let’s take a look at the most popular Rolex watches that are on the trend this year.
Rolex has a wide array of iconic watch collections in its catalogue. However, the models that are evoking the most vehement passion from collectors in 2020 are the Rolex Submariner and the GMT-Master. These are two of the cornerstone and ultimate professional watches available in the brand’s catalogue.
Rolex revived the Submariner lineup and introduced the new 41mm Submariner versions. Eventually, the 41mm size has become one of the most famous case diameters, appealing to both men and women.
The new Rolex Sky-Dweller also comes with equally attractive features to lure its global enthusiasts.
Among the Rolex 2020 launches, the watch that is celebrating unanimous craze and praise across the world is the Oyster Perpetual Submariner Date in stainless steel.
What boosts its appeal is the green Cerachrom bezel encircling the upgraded 41mm case.
On the contrary, the Calibre 3230 made its debut with the updated Oyster Perpetual Submariner version.
Rolex also flashed its popular Oyster Perpetual collection for 2020, introducing it in 41mm size for the first time. And the 41mm is the unmistakably popular diameter for this year.
However, the 36mm Oyster Perpetual version is no lagging behind. The brand unleashed this lineup offering vibrantly colourful dials, including turquoise and coral.
Furthermore, Rolex launched a grey Rolesor edition of the Oyster Perpetual Datejust 31 for 2020. What’s more tempting is that the new Datejust also comes in coloured dials – White lacquer, Anthracite, Mint Green, and Aubergine.
The Calibre 2236 powering the new grey Rolesor Datejust, serves as the cherry on the top. This movement features a Rolex’s patented silicon balance-spring.

Moreover, both the brand’s patented movements offer an increased power reserve up to 70 hours.
Thus, the significant upgrades for Rolex Submariner 2020 are –
Another new addition to the brand’s catalogue is the Datejust 31 in White Rolesor versions. Traditionally, the white Rolesor timepieces sport only the bezels made of 18ct white gold.
