Any speculation — perhaps from folks who have been tracking watch sales cycles for a long period of time — on when/why/if second hand watch prices will fall? Demand for watches seems astronomical at the moment.

Pretty much all asset values have been inflating. I’m not saying there isn’t a lot of true demand, but I also put some blame on the fact that there is a ton of money floating around from accommodative monetary policy and liquidity.

Brands may, but I think it’ll take a true economic earthquake that hurts the rich first

Some event that induces prolonged fear, or true financial insecurity. There were deals to be had when the market had that downward spike at the beginning of Covid.

And the fed says there is no inflation 🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️ pleasssssseeee.

There are many great deals to be had in most watch brands. I’m guessing you might be referring to the extrémele hyped/hot pieces. Hard to say when they will come down in price to reasonable prices, a lot of people are trying to make money with flipping, it’s gonna likely take a number of years from now for the situation to level a bit if ever.

Thought/question I have been wondering for a while below.

I am about to start looking for engagement rings…. Thoughts on finding a jeweler that also sells Rolex’s and possibly try to get a bundle deal (looking for spend around 20ish k on the ring and just a datejust for the watch)?

I am in NYC but open to surrounding areas if anyone has any jeweler suggestions.

No idea if this is a stupid thought but figured it would be worth seeing if anyone has any experience or thoughts on this. TIA.
