Rolex Daytona Zenith Ref 16520 A series
Not every watch is like Paul Newman Rolexes, nor Nautilus
5711/1A blue dial that come up with crazy high price nowadays.
And Watch Appreciation path is long and it won’t jump up two
times price in days… We can track their price over 2-6 years and we can predict
their future value. Still, there is the advantage that they rarely drop in
value.
Watch is not like your Testarossa that you really have to
spend money to maintain it… You can even put it in your vault for years.
Watch is simply an accessory that follows trends. And while
trends are cyclical, I cannot wait 20 years for my watch to come back into
style. So may harvest time is 5 years only.
Go Vintage
Still interested putting money on watches as an investment? Here
are a few way to think about it.
Vintage Patek, Rolex, Vacheron Constantin, and Audemars
Piguet, Cartier and Breguet are some of the items that you may consider to buy,
as they are beautiful, Iconic and historical.
Buy from end user direct
It is almost the best way to sell a high price through
auction, and seldom you can make another double one year selling your auction
watch last year.
The good side of internet is also the bad side itself, everyone
can search the watch that is on line and prices are transparent… There is difficulty
you can really buy an under-valued watch through internet…
You have to find it your way direct from the end user, sometimes
they have good offers.
New Watch Recommendations
Go for new Nautilus and Rolex Sport models at SRP preferably
or at premium as last resort.
Keep it untouched for a few years, it will not make you in disgrace,
probably a grim on your mouth when you see what they worth 3 years later.
Rolexes
The Rolex Crown is a guarantee that your money back, plus
some bonus. If you can get it at SRP, surely there is no other investment ever
better…
These are some of the watches came into my mind
- Submariner 116610LV Hulk, prompt to be discontinued by 2020, price will shoot up to $160,000. Today’s price is $130,000.
- 2019 Discontinued GMT Master II Batman 116710BLNR is now $140,000I speculate that it will hit price $160,000 by end of the year.
- Daytona White 116500LN current price is $198,000 and I speculate that price will be further up to $220,000 by end 2019.
- New 2019 Batgirl 126710BLNR Black Blue in Jubilee bracelet is now $150,000. I think it will hit$159,000 in September.
- GMT master II Pepsi in Jubilee bracelet 12671BLNR is now $149,000, due to the cherry blossom pinkish red colour echoed with the blue on the other size of on the bezel, I think it will hit $170,000 by end of the year.Neu-VintageI like those series such as Daytona 16520, Polar 16570, Submariner 1680 as there is less argument on the dial, bezel hand matching issues and that is not too expensive, still not too difficult to buy. But I see great potential for appreciation.As a matter of fact they are made for use and we can use them as much as you can rather than those watches made in the early 70s’ or the 60’s.
- Daytona Zenith 16520 Black A series now is $220,000 and by end of the year it would be like $240,000 -$260,000
- Daytona Zenith 16520 W series that is claimed to be “Patrizzi dial” as Rolex applied a new layer of argon protective material coating on the dial, after few years the colour of the dial changed brownish yellow… that makes the watch price go high.
- Explorer II Polar 16570 White T-25 dial, this is a rising star in the past few months, don’t know reason why but seeing price up and up… It was about $45,000 in March and now price up a lot to $55,000 or more for the same watch such as a T series…So I think we should not miss this Explorer II White Polar.
- Sea Dweller 16600, so call the perfect diving watch, it is made in volume much lesser than Submariner 16610LN, and it is distinguished by having a thicker body and no cyclops lens.I have sold three pieces in this year from $62,000, then $68,000 and $72,000 . Still it is best buy if comparing money you spent and thing you get.See Note *1 below
Patek PhilippePatek Philippe as a brand often called the most prestigious
in the world.
They produce 1/22 of what Rolex makes a year in number of
high-end pieces. So you’re looking at a bit more of an investment than Rolex
and a slightly smaller market, but bigger margins if you secure a cool model.
These are King Solomon’s treasure if you get it.
- Nautilus 5711/1A $700,000 ($229,200)
- Nautilus 5712/1A $720,000 ($307,300)
- Nautilus 5990/1A $940,000 ($414,200
- Aquanaut 5968A $660,000 ($339,500)
Price in bracelet is
SRP priceConclusionThese watches aren’t that they’re guaranteed to make you
money. Definitely they are better than the fixed deposit on Bank. If that new
watches bought for investment, don’t wear it, keep it as it was bought with all
the official invoice, accessories and bag.
We prefer full set for any used ones, keep all material,
literature, box as it was bought.
They are quite small, store them separately with Rolex
Crystal Box*2 in vault with the warrant card. And this will give you one some of
the return after a few years, even a few months!
Please don’t run to me if your watch investment plan does
not come into reality as I am not Nostradamus.
Enjoy your investment… keep money rolling and buy yourself
an ultimate Super Watch!HK SnobNote 1
