Common questions about the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 1024

How big is the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 1024?

The case measures 34mm across, with a 19mm lug width. Case material: Steel. Case size alone is a poor guide to how a watch wears; lug-to-lug length and how the bracelet drops off the case matter more, which is why we suggest trying one on before you commit.

What movement is in the 1024?

Automatic. Power reserve is 48 hours. The movement uses 26 jewels.

When was the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 1024 made?

Rolex produced this reference from 1960 to the present day. Production years matter when you are valuing one, because dial, bezel and bracelet details often changed inside a single reference run.
