I bought the daytona. It was one of the the greatest moments of my life as I saved 10 years to buy that watch. I flew from Amsterdam to London and took a coffee after 3 hours went back. Now I can do a little research and hopefully find out what what she is worth.

You did fine until you talked about investing in watches vs others. I'm pretty sure investing $10k in equities will do far better than watches.
@Locksley9638 ай бұрын
David's purpose in the video is mainly for informative purposes and for the views. I understand that a lot of people are sensitive about the word "investment" when associated with watches, but the fact is that certain watches are assets for collectors. The only time watches are more "liquid" is when you are in the watch business and trading watches daily.

Correct. I bought my first steel Submariner Date in 2015 for £5,700 from an AD straight out of the window. Now tell me what you can buy out of a shop window today for that money? 9 years later every time I wear that watch it feels special. Maybe I’m just an enthusiast who appreciates a fantastic product that keeps delivering nearly a decade on.

And well above retail. Even though prices have dipped No complaints. I just like the Sub I bought from Watch collectors of course!

No profit on an oyster perpetual unless it’s a rare dial? Seen black dial 41mm being marked at £8k. That’s £2.5k over list, without the watch advertised being brand new. If there’s no profit in that for the seller then that’s on the dealer tbh.

A decent investment down the road in 20,30, 40 years ONLY if Rolex remains the company it is today. A slight gamble ever so much - quality will need to remain the same or better, output of units needs to be conservitive and Rolex management will need to guide the ship as it has all these decades. Companies change, products change, consumers habits, desires change, and lastly the world changes. Been a Rolex customer since the 80's and love the brand. Looking 30-40 years into the future for possible what IF value is risky as anything else. CHEERS!

David missed out the Explorer 2. For me that's a watch that never had much hype-value, even during the days of peak madness. But they are genuine tool watches worn by a certain type of guy (think middle/upper class, ex-forces, Bear Grylls types) who genuinely don't give a monkey's about the re-sell value.

Give u some truth. ADs are keeping them in the safe . It’s not that they have, it’s that they r trying to get u to buy sth before it gets released to u . But how long can this lasts ? Watches are not moving, the younger gen doesn’t even like watches much, the 30s and above are either sick and tired of the games played or have owned what they already want. Don’t believe me ? Check out the financial report of listed companies selling watch in 2025 . They will be in crisis. As for grey dealer , they will start closing. Buy only when this happens , be the king , don’t make others ur king

It’s not hating to disagree with you mate. Here’s the thing, your advice is great for flippers and dealers, but if I took your advice, I’d have a watch I don’t like on my wrist. When I purchase a watch man, I could give a flying flux about value retention cuz I’m not looking to make money with watches. I don’t sell my watches because It was love at first sight. The average owner is not sweating the value because if they’re willing to spend 10k on an OP, they’re probably making a pretty good living. Not everybody wants a 60k+ watch. Horrible advice lol, but I understand, you’re a flipper and you probably have said watches that you need to unload. Watches are HORRIBLE INVESTMENTS IN EVERY WAY….
