Buying a Rolex with Bitcoin: A Comprehensive Guide

Rolex is one of the world’s finest and most sought-after watch brands, instantly recognizable by its iconic crown logo. If you’ve been thinking of picking up for yourself, you’ll find many choices of models as well as a wide selection of BitPay merchants that accept crypto payments.

When it comes to wearable status symbols, few are as recognizable and coveted as a Rolex watch. For nearly 120 years, Rolexes have graced the wrists of celebrities, athletes and even U.S. presidents. Rolexes don’t just look good, they’re made from only the finest materials and keep incredibly accurate time, which is part of the reason they’re so pricey. Fortunately, if you’re in the market for one of these legendary timepieces and want to spend crypto to get it, BitPay partner merchants make it fast, easy and secure.

How to buy a Rolex with cryptocurrency

There are a number of different ways to get your hands on a shiny new Rolex (or even a gently loved used one) with cryptocurrency.

Pay direct with a BitPay Merchant

If you’re looking to buy a Rolex with crypto, you can choose between a wide assortment of jewelers and watch sellers who accept direct crypto payments. Paying with crypto is fast, secure and convenient. Once you’ve picked out the watch of your dreams, simply choose BitPay as the payment method at check. An invoice will be generated which you can pay with practically any wallet.

Steps to paying with crypto

Step 1: From the merchant’s checkout page, select BitPay as your payment method.

Step 2: Choose “Begin Payment”.
Some merchants may ask for your BitPay ID, which allows you to manage payments information with BitPay while simplifying logins across multiple BitPay products. If you don’t have one yet, signing up takes only minutes, requiring just an email address and password. One important note, you will need to provide a one-time verification for any BitPay merchant or prepaid payments exceeding $3,000, initiating refund requests over $1,000, or receiving BitPay payouts.

Step 3: Choose your wallet.
BitPay seamlessly integrates with more than 100 of the top crypto wallets.

Step 4: Select your cryptocurrency of choice.
BitPay supports more than a dozen of the most popular cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu Coin (SHIB), Litecoin (LTC), XRP (XRP), Dai (DAI), Binance USD (BUSD), USD Coin (USDC), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Pax Dollar (USDP) and Gemini Dollar (GUSD).

Step 5: Scan the QR code the merchant provides, or manually input their receiving wallet information with your crypto wallet to finish the transaction. Payments are instantly reflected on the invoice once you validate the payment. Just be sure to send payment during the 15-minute transaction window or the merchant will have to generate a new QR code.
