Q: What is the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 31mm Ref. 177200 (circa 2014)? A: A versatile mid-size, time‑only Rolex in Oystersteel with a 31 mm Oyster case, smooth domed bezel and a distinctive Red Grape dial with Roman numerals, fitted to the three‑link Oyster bracelet with a folding clasp.
Q: Which movement powers this watch and what is the power reserve? A: It is driven by Rolex’s self‑winding Calibre 2231, a robust automatic movement with an approximate power reserve of 48 hours.
Q: Does it have a sapphire crystal? A: Yes. This reference features a scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal for durability and clarity.
Q: Is it water‑resistant? A: When new, the Oyster case with Twinlock screw‑down crown was rated to 100 metres. As a pre‑owned piece, water resistance cannot be guaranteed without a recent pressure test; treat it as splash‑resistant only and avoid swimming or showering.
Q: Is the “Red Grape” dial original and period‑correct? A: Yes. Rolex offered Red Grape dials across the Oyster Perpetual line during the 2010s, including on the 31 mm Ref. 177200 with Roman numerals.
Q: Is Ref. 177200 still produced? A: No. It was discontinued around 2020 and succeeded by the Oyster Perpetual 31 Ref. 277200.
Q: Will this watch fit my wrist? A: This specific piece is sized to fit wrists up to 18 cm in circumference. The Oyster bracelet can be adjusted by removing or adding links; additional links may be sourced separately if required.
Q: Is 31 mm considered ladies’, men’s, or unisex? A: 31 mm is widely regarded as a mid‑size that suits many women and men who prefer classic, more compact proportions.
Q: How do I wind and set the time? A: Unscrew the crown anti‑clockwise to release it. In the first position, you can manually wind the movement. Pull the crown to the next position to set the time. Push the crown back in and screw it down firmly to maintain the case seal. (There is no date function on this model.)
Q: What is included and is there a warranty? A: This watch comes with its original box, hang tag and booklet. A Retro Tale guarantees 100% authenticity and provides a 12‑month mechanical (movement) warranty along with our standard returns policy for peace of mind.
