Investing in valuable timepieces is probably the most appealing type of investment. Not only because you don’t lose any money but also because you enjoy a fabulous accessory until you decide to re-sell it. The truth is that many watch enthusiasts buying one or another Rolex watch for investment purposes, turn to be passionate about it over time, and in the end, decide to keep it in their watch collections. Without any doubt, a Rolex watch would never be the first item to make the first investment. As a general rule, people invest in these watches only after becoming “saturated” with other types of investments. Therefore, buying Rolex watches becomes a sort of “investment game” that provides satisfaction and pleasure.
Spending vs Investing
Spending money and investing them are two opposite concepts. You can spend money on accessories of poor quality for the last about 3-6 months. After this period, the accessories, be it watches, jewelry, bags, etc… lose their aesthetic aspect and, worst case scenario-their functional reliability. On the other hand, investing money does not necessarily mean earning profit from a certain investment but also enjoying great quality, long-lasting durability, and timeless functionality. When you get these qualities from a product, you are free to consider it a great investment.
Here are some Rolex timepieces that will remain actual, worthy, and valuable at the end of 2022 and the beginning of 2023. All of them are selected according to specific criteria, including their versatility, design aspect, functional reliability, and price. As for the price, be sure that they will not lose their value and will remain demanded at least one year in advance. This is because they are part of the classic line of Rolex. And as we all know: classics never die. On the contrary, classic timepieces boast an impressively high demand being even more hunted than modern smartwatches.
Rolex Submariner
