Q: Is the 34 mm size suitable for men and women? A: Yes. The 34 mm Oyster case wears compact and is considered unisex. With an approximate 42 mm lug‑to‑lug, it suits a wide range of wrists and offers an elegant, classic presence compared with larger modern sizes.
Q: What is the lug width and can I change straps easily? A: The ref. 15200 has 19 mm lugs. It accepts 19 mm leather, rubber or fabric straps; some 20 mm straps may be squeezed in but are not recommended as they can cause wear. Always use the correct size for a secure fit.
Q: Which bracelet does the 15200 come on? A: Most were supplied on the three‑link Oyster bracelet, though some were delivered on the five‑link Jubilee depending on configuration and period. This watch is fitted with a stainless‑steel Oyster bracelet with a folding clasp.
Q: How is the bracelet currently sized and can it be adjusted? A: This example is currently sized to fit a wrist up to 15 cm. Links can be added or removed by a qualified watchmaker; extra links may be sourced separately if needed.
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.

Delivery & Returns
Q: What movement powers the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date ref. 15200? A: This reference uses the Rolex Calibre 3135 automatic movement with hacking seconds and a quickset date. It typically offers around 48 hours of power reserve and is chronometer certified for accuracy.
Q: Is the 34 mm size suitable for men and women? A: Yes. The 34 mm Oyster case wears compact and is considered unisex. With an approximate 42 mm lug‑to‑lug, it suits a wide range of wrists and offers an elegant, classic presence compared with larger modern sizes.
Q: What is the lug width and can I change straps easily? A: The ref. 15200 has 19 mm lugs. It accepts 19 mm leather, rubber or fabric straps; some 20 mm straps may be squeezed in but are not recommended as they can cause wear. Always use the correct size for a secure fit.
Q: Can I swim with this watch? A: The Oyster case is rated to 100 metres when properly sealed. As this example dates from 2002, water resistance depends on gasket and crown condition. Have it pressure‑tested after a recent service before any swimming, always ensure the crown is fully screwed down, and avoid hot tubs/saunas which can stress seals.
Q: Does it have a quickset date and how do I set it safely? A: Yes, it features a quickset date. To set: unscrew the crown to the first position to wind (20–30 turns to start), pull gently to the date‑setting position to advance the date, and pull to the last position to set the time. Avoid using the quickset between about 9 pm and 3 am when the calendar is engaged; if needed, first move the hands outside this window, then set the date.
Q: Which bracelet does the 15200 come on? A: Most were supplied on the three‑link Oyster bracelet, though some were delivered on the five‑link Jubilee depending on configuration and period. This watch is fitted with a stainless‑steel Oyster bracelet with a folding clasp.
Q: What crystal and bezel does this model have? A: It features a scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal with a cyclops magnifier over the date and a smooth, domed stainless‑steel bezel.
Q: What does the Y‑serial number mean for this piece? A: A Y‑prefix serial corresponds to production around 2002–2003, which aligns with this watch’s stated year of 2002.
Q: How is the bracelet currently sized and can it be adjusted? A: This example is currently sized to fit a wrist up to 15 cm. Links can be added or removed by a qualified watchmaker; extra links may be sourced separately if needed.
Q: How often should I service a 15200 and what about water‑resistance checks? A: Rolex’s guidance for modern watches is roughly every 10 years, but for earlier pieces or frequent wear, 5–7 years is sensible. If you plan to swim, have water‑resistance tested after any service or annually to be safe.
Q: What is included with this item? A: As listed, this watch comes without accessories such as a box or papers. Everything included is shown under Accessories; if an item isn’t listed there, it is not included.
