How Much is a Black Face Watch?
Finding the Right Wrist-watches for You
Antique, vintage and luxury wristwatches have captured the hearts and minds of all manner of watch collectors as well as the watchmakers themselves — it's time you found your own.
Certain vintage watches for men and iconic watch designs for women are sought after not only because of their graceful proportions or innovative materials but also because of the illustrious histories of the houses that created them, histories that they stylishly embody.
Bulgari’s legendary Serpenti watch was on everyone’s list after the collection’s bold bracelet, which technically debuted after the timepiece, graced the wrist of actress Elizabeth Taylor. If anything, elaborately crafted timepieces — the unmistakably boxy silhouette of Cartier Tank watches, the elegant and minimal Calatrava designed by legendary Swiss house Patek Philippe — are even more effective than the shape we associate with traditional wristwatches.
Form watches — the all-encompassing moniker bestowed upon non-round watches — are making headlines and completing contemporary fashionable ensembles the world over. At the same time, both casual fans and careful collectors are drawn to the unbeatable charm of vintage styles, such as the icons designed by Omega that even James Bond can’t resist.
In the early days of watchmaking, watches were fragile enough that they necessitated protection from the elements. Now, wristwatches made of gold and steel can withstand the harshest climates — even 100 meters underwater, in the case of Rolex’s Submariner. Designer Gérald Genta, whose range of clients included Rolex, created for Audemars Piguet the first luxury sports timepiece to be made from stainless steel. First introduced in 1972, the Royal Oak was a perfect choice for blending the form and function that are now synonymous with sports watches.
Are you shopping for a wristwatch? It’s good to keep your needs as well as your specific personal style in mind: A smaller, subtle timepiece is a good fit for small wrists. When will you be wearing your new accessory? There’s a versatile model out there for everyday wear, while a rugged, feature-heavy watch is a safe bet if you’re prone to embarking on all-weather activities in the great outdoors.

- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024The difference between the dial and the face of a watch comes down largely to preferred terminology. Both terms refer to the part of a watch where you look to see the time. Dial is generally a more technical term than face. Find a large collection of watches on 1stDibs.
- Does Rolex make black watches?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023Yes, Rolex does make black watches. The Swiss luxury watchmaker has offered black dials on many of its timepieces, including the Air-King, the Cellini, Datejust, the Day-Date, the Daytona, the Explorer, the GMT-Master II, the Milgauss, the Oyster Perpetual, the Sea-Dweller, the Sky-Dweller, the Submariner and the Yacht-Master. However, Rolex isn't known for producing black cases and bracelets, with the exception of custom orders. Find a wide range of Rolex watches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 5, 2024How much a Piguet Black Panther watch is will vary. The luxury watchmaker Audemars Piguet actually released multiple versions of the timepiece produced in collaboration with Marvel. When it came to market, the standard titanium and ceramic version cost $162,000, while prices for the limited edition Royal Oak Concept "Black Panther" Flying Tourbillon began around $224,000. How much you would expect to pay for one on the secondary market would depend on the condition of the watch and its model. On 1stDibs, find a variety of Audemars Piguet watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, Rolex has never made an all-black watch. However, it’s possible to have a Rolex customized to be all black and occasionally, you can find these customized timepieces on the used market. On 1stDibs, you’ll find a collection of expertly-vetted Rolex watches from some of the world’s top sellers.
