Michael Kors Parker Rose Gold-Tone Watch with Pavé Glitz Bezel & Mother of Pearl Dial (Model MK-5491/MK-2249)
Michael Kors · Jewelry & Watches > Watches
Era / Decade
2010s (approx. 2012-2017)
Material
Rose gold-tone plated stainless steel case and bracelet, crystal pavé encrusted bezel, mother of pearl dial, and mineral crystal glass. Quality is mid-tier 'fashion watch' standard.
Condition
Good. The rose gold plating shows visible scuffing and scratches on the oyster-style bracelet links. The crystal bezel appears intact, but the watch is currently non-running (likely requires a new 371 or SR920SW battery). No major deep gouges visible on the face.
Demand Level
Moderate. While the 'oversized rose gold' trend peaked a few years ago, Michael Kors watches maintain a steady 'bread and butter' status for resellers on fashion apps.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
$45.00 - $85.00

Comparable Sales
Similar Michael Kors Parker watches in pre-owned, working condition typically sell for $60-$75 on Poshmark. Non-working units or those with heavy wear frequently sell for $30-$40 as 'parts' or 'repair' items.
Description
This elegant Michael Kors Parker watch features a stunning rose gold-tone stainless steel finish and a luminous mother-of-pearl dial. The face is highlighted by a double row of sparkling crystal pavé around the bezel and features a date window at the 4 o'clock position. The three-link bracelet secures with a deployment clasp. Case size: approx 39mm. Style: Glamour/Luxury Fashion.
Key Features
Highly recognizable 'Parker' silhouette, desirable rose gold-tone, mother of pearl dial face, date function, and the classic crystal pavé bezel which remains a popular aesthetic for Michael Kors collectors.
Authenticity Indicators
Logo alignment on the dial looks correct; crown features the 'MK' embossing; date window is correctly positioned. Confidence: High (this is a commonly produced fashion watch rather than a highly faked luxury piece like a Rolex).
Flaws to Note
Significant surface scratching on the metal band (typical wear for plated steel). Potential battery replacement needed to confirm movement works. Original box and extra links are missing, which limits the wrist size it can accommodate.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Poshmark and Mercari are the best for this brand due to the 'fashion-forward' user base. eBay is a solid secondary option for reaching international collectors looking for specific discontinued models.
Selling Tips
Replace the battery before listing to sell as 'Working'—this can double your sale price. Use keywords like 'glitz,' 'pavé,' and 'oversized.' Take clear photos of the clasp and any scratches to ensure the buyer knows the condition. Clean the metal with a soft microfiber cloth to restore shine before photography.
