I hope the value of Rolex watches goes to $0
I tell this to my SA every time he gets me a piece. The look on his face is priceless.
Imagine an AD begging you to take a piece after you bought severely discounted jewelry. Never say never ! |

Why would you hope that?! It's like hoping the value of your house or car or whatever goes to zero. I think for long term sustainability, the ideal situation is if you can buy a Rolex for $X+tax, you can sell it for $X

It's best when it is worth what you paid for... not more, not less. No depreciation, no speculation... Just a timeless, quality watch you can enjoy.

I agree. If they just held their value without appreciation it would be a lot more enjoyable. But those days are gone.

I’ve never sold a watch so I’m not in this hobby for a profit. I see you have at minimum $40k of very nice watches in your signature, a shame you want that to be worth nothing.

Huh?, What?
Well, Just hypothetically, If it did another brand would just take it's place in this day in age. I am so glad to see after decades of collecting that there are so many excellent, long lasting, accurate watches to choose from. Oh and if my home was worth nothing, I wouldn't mind that either. Just think of all the worthless watches I could buy just from not having to pay property tax!

I’m guessing the OP has a few screws loose!
