There are very few watches that maintain or gain in value. That's a fact that any true watch enthusiast knows. So, unless I'm willing to have a whole collection of just Rolex, Patek, AP Royal Oaks and the like, there are going to be great watches that lose value. Watches made by, say, JLC, A. Lange & Sohne, Omega, and this list goes on and on and is long and distinguished. Right now I have a Z-Blue Milgauss, Omega AT Worldtimer, a Speedmaster and a Seamaster, along with some affordables. Only one of them will gain in value, the rest will lose value. These are great watches that, if I ever sell them, I'll lose money on them. That's the way it goes.

Enjoyed your review. Agree wholeheartedly with one specific statement you made, do not borrow money to buy a watch, only buy what you can afford. Wise beyond your years! I love the JLC perp calendar regardless of the value retention. A watch enthusiast should buy what they love as they will likely keep long term, that is different from a watch investor who is not and enthusiast, just someone trying to make a profit from a commodity.

Really excellent and informative video. In response to some of the comments that say one shouldn’t buy a watch as an investment, I agree. But I have learned the hard way that the love for a particular watch is not always eternal. So it’s good to know which ones will do less financial damage, if you ever want to sell.

I'd prefer to just buy the watch I want, regardless of any future value. They're not stocks and shares.

Over the years, I've parted with a few of my mid-luxury watches, and I can say they sold for at least what I paid for them originally. Of course, I realize my experience is entirely anecdotal.

Thank you for your work and thoughts! As a long time watch enthusiast, i'm courious about, what the Watch Trend does to the watch world.

The video is good, but shows what watches are now trended. When the whole watch hypewill be over once (maybe), i think what will remain are the watch enthusiasts, that have interest in different categories, like watches with a military backround (zenith rainbow, heuer bundeswehr, tudor snowflake and so on) or old heuer racing drivers. But maybe there will just be a new trend, like pockwt watches...

Great video Jenni ❤

I'll put some perspective from different sectors on this... Firstly...sneakers. A few years ago, Nikes SB Dunk models were totally unloved: they were sitting in outlets - a model that has been around since 1985 and had ups and down...and for a while they were pretty, badly down. Even with deep discounts. Many ended up being given to charities at some point. But then a few years ago...Travis Scott did a collaboration. And since then, they almost always sell out. Even mundane general releases, more so for collaborations. But it can go the other way. Back about 5 years ago, there was a photo of Kanye West jumping up wearing adidas ultraboost shoes...and suddenly, they sold out. Demand outstripped supply to such a degree that every model selling at retail for $180 in the US could be sold for at least double the price instantly, many 3-5 times the price, and a few at over ten times the price. But then factories able to make the unique midsole material increased in number and capacity...and supply skyrocketed. Some of the hyped died down. And prices collapsed. Now the shoes end up in outlets quite often, with fairly limited resale value for new models. And then the Lexus LFA...a ridiculously expensive high end sports car, that really was not as fast as Ferraris, Porsche Turbos and Lamborghinis...but it cost way more than its competitors. With a Lexus badge. It was a hard sell for dealers, many sat on lots for years, with the last few moving back in early 2020 in the US. But then...a few KZread clips, lauding the quality, the amazing sound of the V10. People remembered the Top Gear review by Jeremy Clarkson...and demand suddenly blew up. A car that could not be sold for years off dealer lots for years suddenly doubled in value in the space of a few months. I have no doubt there are some watches, currently unloved, that will do the above. Suddenly demand will spike. Prices will skyrocket. But some may well go the other way... Good luck in working out which it will be!

“Name a product that increases in value with age AND use.” KS

There are 2 theories that contradictory, 1) buy the watch that has high demand, the price will keep on rising and easy to sell later on. 2) buy the watch that is undervalued , good quality , massive depreciation and not many people know and understand them, when the price goes up it will worth a fortune. If someone bought Daytona in 1960s or 1970s he belong to the category number 2, but if someone buy Daytona today he is in category number 1. Its the same watch but bought in different era by people with different philosophies and will give different payoff and satisfaction.

I like the point of view here. Great video Jenni!

A Mercedes S Class isn’t even close to being one of the most expensive or complicated cars. Bugatti or Koenigsegg or a range of others are the valid comparisons here and they retain their value very well. The general rule is if something is expensive and relatively rare, it tends to hold its value well or appreciate. The oddity really is Rolex as they probably compare to Mercedes and yet the value of their watches keeps going up.

Grand Seiko are a great watch. But they are rightly or wrongly linked with Seiko which are not a great watch, therein lies the problem for Grand Seiko as an investment watch.

@@niallduffy6907 literally the bane of the whole hobby. Watches are to wear and enjoy. Stocks are for investment. Seiko also has more history than Rolex and is arguably more innovative.

I have two watches that have increased in value by more than 25%, both Seikos (SARB035, SARB017) I bought around MSRP. The total amount is not huge, but the percentage is impressive.

The Sarb017 seiko alpinist has become something of a cult classic. Its actually impressive in a way.

Hi Jenni! love your videos. I was hoping you would include some more details in relation to the mechanical watches vs quartz in retaining their value as well as precious stones in dial or bazel. What feature helps more retain value? Mechanism, precious stones or rarity? For example there are holy trinity watches (PP, AP and VC) with quartz and diamonds. How well would they retain their value and what characteristic matters most?

Very informative video. Greetings from Rio, Brazil.

I could not care less about value, investment, etc. I like watches for pleasure and not money, money, money.

Where would you categorize Cartier? I didn't see that brand in your tiers.

The well known ones (Santos, Pasha) dont go for retail but seem to hold well in the secondary market from what I have seen, the classic tanks don't seem to be as much in demand, but that goofy crash always seems to have someone willing to overpay for one- most likely saw a photo of some celeb wearing it and thinks it's the "hot ticket".

I love your accent so much! I could listen for hours.

Thanks, very helpful!

Having been a collector for nearly forty years, the only brand ive found that retain their value, is Rolex. There is a thing about Rolex, that within reason, no matter what you pay on the Grey market for the coveted Sports models, its money you are likely to get back if you sell them. Rolex retain their value better than just about any other brand, and the sensible person who spends a lot of money on their watch, can see a return on their investment in the longterm.

Much like Omega. A few models retain their value, or perhaps go up a bit. The balance experience modest depreciation.

I really liked this. No great surprises in the list, but reinforced my impressions.

Great tips!

I'm not so interested in watches as investment pieces, I simply wear what I like. However, this was a great video if only to hear Jenni pronounce Jaeger LeCoultre again lol

It has been my experience that most dealers, who would buy most watches, offer 50% under retail or more (there are a few exceptions). There is no 'holding' value, after paying retail and selling to a dealer. Now selling to the public is different.

obviously retailers usually double prices and add sales taxes

A Lange & Sohne and FP Journe watches are going through the roof in Hong Kong and China. Crazy market.

Great advice there about not borrowing money to purchase a watch in case of economic downturn. A very good bit of advice more people should listen to.

I have to disagree on the BB GMT... I have found that trying to sell mine close to retail price was impossible... I lost about 700€. Most on C24 are well under retail.

Yep, readily available in Dundee, my nearest city. The panda chronos, however, are in great demand.

Say goodbye for my money if I bought F.B. Journe? I’m willing to buy any watch at the retail price :) It’s much better if you said Jacob and co instead

Great video. I try my best not to buy watches based on value retention and appreciation. However, as money is limited (for me anyway), I tend to wait a bit longer until the sales before purchasing. I have not lost money selling some of steel Rolexes previously.

Great video! I would challenge you a little on FP Journe, those are red hot right now. You cant even buy them in a boutique right now.
