Rolex Oyster Perpetual 26mm Ref 176200 Full Set Watch
An elegant choice for daily wear or a polished office look, this 26mm Rolex Oyster Perpetual lends understated sophistication to meetings, lunches and evening drinks. Its refined silver dial and steel bracelet pair effortlessly with tailoring or weekend attire, making it a timeless companion for city breaks, gallery openings and special celebrations.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the key specifications of this Rolex Oyster Perpetual 26mm Ref 176200? A: It features a 26 mm Oystersteel case with a smooth bezel, a silver dial with pink hour markers, sapphire crystal, and a stainless steel Oyster bracelet with a folding clasp. It uses an automatic Rolex movement and, when new and properly sealed, the Oyster case is rated waterproof to 100 metres. Please see the product information on this page for the full set contents.
Q: Is the 26 mm Oyster Perpetual still in production? A: Rolex no longer offers the Oyster Perpetual in 26 mm; the smallest current size in the collection is 28 mm. This makes Ref. 176200 a discontinued size within the modern range.
Q: Which movement does this reference use and what is the power reserve? A: Ref. 176200 in 26 mm is powered by the Rolex calibre 2231, an automatic, COSC-certified chronometer movement with an approximate 48-hour power reserve.
Q: Can I swim or shower with this watch? A: The Oyster Perpetual is factory rated to 100 metres when its seals and screw-down crown are in proper condition. As this is a pre-owned 2011 watch, we recommend a professional pressure test before any swimming and to avoid hot tubs/saunas. Always ensure the crown is fully screwed down before water exposure.
Q: How often should a Rolex like this be serviced? A: Rolex advises that, under normal conditions, servicing is recommended approximately every ten years. Actual intervals depend on use and environment; older pieces may benefit from earlier checks if accuracy or power reserve change noticeably.
Q: What wrist size will the bracelet fit, and can it be adjusted? A: This watch is currently sized to approximately 17 cm and comes with extra links noted in the product information. A competent watchmaker can add or remove links for a precise fit; minor micro-adjustment can also be done at the clasp.
Q: Does it come with any remaining Rolex warranty? A: Rolex provides a five-year international guarantee on new watches. As this example is from 2011, the original factory guarantee has expired. Any current coverage would depend on a later authorised service; if recently serviced, a separate service warranty may apply.
Q: How do I wind and set the time? A: Unscrew the crown counter-clockwise to the first position and turn it clockwise about 25–30 turns to manually wind. Pull the crown gently to the next position to set the time, then push the crown back in and screw it down firmly to maintain waterproofness.
Q: What is included with this watch? A: This piece is offered as a full set. According to the product information, it includes the original box, certificate, manual, and extra links. If an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every watch is carefully examined by our in-house specialists using multi-point checks of materials, finishing, movement, serial/reference details, and period-correct components. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further product information on request.
