    Naah! Yung rolex na inaasam-asam ko 575k sa trinoma. Sa 2nd hand rolex shop sa greenhillls 300k na lang. So kung ibebenta mo yung 575k rolex dun sa shop sa greenhills e baka bilihin lang sa iyo ng 200k. One reason i wanted to buy a rolex WAS for investment cause they say its value goes up. But after seeing the rolexs in greenhills hindi na lang.

    the only real investment i can think of... is real estate. unless they go and decide to build a dam...

    everything else... is hit or miss... depending on how long you are willing to wait.

    The value goes up after 100 years.

    You can't just keep expensive watches in an ordinary vault. It has to be in a watch vault that rotates the watches so the mechanical system will keep functioning. Some models also need to be oiled for maintenance every few years or so.

    Most rolex's go down in value. Only the special editions and rare ones appreciate. A submariner, explorer, yachtmaster, etc will all go down in value as they are very common and there is a lot of production for these models. There is no way that a used 'common model' rolex will sell for more than a brand new one.

    Only rare, limited edition, one of a kind rolexes go up in value. Dont make the mistake of telling yourself a watch is an investment.

    for some inexplicable reasons, i don't like rolex. I'd rather splurge on IWC or Breitling watches.

    rolex is... conservative.
    IWC.. breitling.. they have more adventurous designs..

    ..depends on customer's tastes..

    i've been thinking of omega's triple date.. kahit segunda mano.. hirap disisyunan.. ok naman kay wifey.. "at least, yan, alam ko kung san pumunta ang pera".

    i read 2 or 3 years ago that a bank exec was charged with qualified theft by his employer because he used the money of the bank to buy luxury watches. yun nabaliw na. sabi ng mga former colleagues niya parang every week bago na naman yung relo niya. :o
