This is a series of questions that often comes up in the comments of our articles or on social networks. Is it better to buy a new or used watch now or should I wait? Will my watch increase in value over time? Is it better to buy a Rolex, a Patek Philippe or another brand of watch if you are looking to invest in high-end models that may see their value rise? The investment bank Morgan Stanley has just published a study that answers some of these questions. Rolex: prices will fall further as supply increases The first finding is that the prices of the most popular watches available replik uhren on the grey market from the Rolex, Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet brands will fall - again - as supply increases. Whether new (NOS, New Old Stock) or used, more and more Nautilus, Daytona and Royal Oak are being offered for sale by unofficial dealers. After rising sharply in 2021, and in the first quarter of 2022, the price of Rolex's Daytona fell by 21%, after peaking last April, according to WatchCharts figures made available via Morgan Stanley. The same is true for Patek Philippe's Nautilus, with an average price drop of 19% on the grey market, compared to 15% for the models from the creator of the Royal Oak. And the fall in prices should visibly continue this year: "we have noted a strong increase in the inventory of watches replica watches on the grey market, via resellers specialising in the sale of second-hand models and via private individuals who now wish to sell off their stock," noted Morgan Stanley analysts. "Given the current inventory of watches for sale and the deteriorating macroeconomic environment, we expect second-hand prices to contract further quarter on quarter," they added. While Rolex, Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet account for 71% of the market for luxury watches sold on the grey market,replica rolex watches not all brands have seen the average price of their flagship models fall. Nevertheless, according to WatchCharts, the average price drop for all brands in the third quarter was 9% compared to the second quarter. Other "losers" were added to this list: the Vacheron Constantin Overseas reference 4500V/110A-B483, sold at a retail price of $22,500, reached a peak on the grey market in April at $39,900, before seeing its price drop to $30,900 in the third quarter. A significant price drop, but relative to its still much higher retail price. So who are the big winners in the second-hand luxury watch market? According to the same study,replica rolex watches three brands stand out: Bulgari (LVMH group) which, despite the current economic context, has managed to see the average price of its watches increase by 1%; A. Lange & Sohne (Richemont group) with an average increase of 3%; and Girard Perregaux (formerly Kering) with an increase of 5%. However, let us put these price increases and decreases into perspective: while the 30 best-selling Rolex watches on the grey market have seen their prices fall by 8% this quarter, their prices have nevertheless risen by 21% since January 2021. https://www.buyreplicawatch.is/
