How to Buy a Rolex with Cryptocurrencies Like Bitcoin and Ethereum

Please note that this is a historic blog post - we are not currently accepting cryptocurrency payments due to regulatory difficulties with our banking providers.

There are many options for buying Rolexes online, but did you know you can now buy luxury watches with cryptocurrency? More and more retailers are beginning to accept crypto as a viable form of payment, and BQ Watches is proud to offer this service. If you own cryptocurrency and you want to purchase a luxury watch, you can buy your next Rolex with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and several other top cryptocurrencies. Just select “Pay With Bitcoin or Other Cryptocurrencies” on your BQ Watches checkout page. 

Although cryptocurrency can be volatile, there are many retailers who are happy to accept crypto, giving you an easy way to spend your crypto on something that will be well worth the investment. Read on for a step-by-step guide to buying a Rolex with cryptocurrency.

First, you should decide on the crypto you want to use to buy your Rolex. There are various ways to acquire cryptocurrency. You can even buy some of the top cryptocurrencies through PayPal. You can also buy cryptocurrency from an exchange like Coinbase. You can then store your cryptocurrency in a digital wallet if you’d like, or if you can keep it available to trade on the exchange. The cryptocurrencies that most retailers accept will be Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Bitcoin Cash. If you’re wanting to buy something online with cryptocurrency, you’ll likely want to use one of these.

If you already have cryptocurrency, but you don’t have a coin that is accepted by online retailers, you can make a trade on your exchange to convert your crypto to an accepted coin. Once you have your crypto of choice, you can start shopping for your luxury watch.

Now comes the fun part. You get to choose the luxury watch you like best. There are a myriad of options to choose from, with casual options, dress watches, tool watches, and much more. Rolex is a great place to start, as they have just about any type of watch you could want. Rolex has diving watches, pilot’s watches, watches for everyday wear, gold watches, and so much more.

Of course, Rolex is far from the only worthy luxury watch brand. Some other great luxury brands include Audemars Piguet, Cartier, Patek Philippe, Tudor, Omega, Breitling, TAG Heuer, IWC, and many more. No matter what your style is, there is sure to be a luxury watch out there for you. If you go on the second-hand market, you can find unique, vintage options too. You can also find some luxury watches at a more affordable price when you decide to buy pre-owned.

It’s still quite early in the evolution of cryptocurrency payments for luxury products like Rolex watches, but there are a handful of online retailers leading the way. Fortunately, you’ve already completed this step, at least in part, because BQ Watches is a trusted retailer already accepting Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and more.

Once you find the right retailer, make sure they’re reputable. Look at their website or contact them to learn more about the company. Some retailers may already have a great reputation, so this can make you more comfortable as you make your purchase. Additionally, browse their inventory to determine whether they offer the sort of watches you like (or the perfect watch you’ve been looking for).

The purchase process may differ depending on the retailer you choose. They may only accept certain types of cryptocurrency, or they may have a specific checkout process that requires you to use a certain exchange. You’ll also want to check their return policies. Unless you pay with a stablecoin that is tied to a fiat currency, like USDC, then the price will likely go up or down after the time of purchase. BQ Watches offers a reliable, flexible return policy, and the purchase process is quick and easy. If you’d like to learn more, please contact us by phone or by email for white-glove service.

With a newer technology like cryptocurrency, it can be a bit intimidating to make a purchase. Especially if this is your first time buying with crypto. You should always feel completely comfortable with your watch-buying experience, so make sure to reach out to the retailer directly if you have any questions.

If the retailer is difficult to get a hold of, or if they aren’t answering your questions satisfactorily, it’s probably best to take your business elsewhere. Although buying a luxury watch with cryptocurrency is secure through a reputable retailer, it is still very important to be wary of dubious sellers and scams. Your retailer should be completely transparent with you and answer any questions you might have.

Now that you’ve ironed out all the details, you can simply trust your personal sense of style and select the watch that is a perfect fit for you. 

Once you’ve selected your preferred watch and found a reputable retailer that accepts crypto, you’re ready to complete your purchase! Just like any online payment, your cryptocurrency transaction will go through right away, and you’ll be the proud owner of a luxury timepiece.
