NEVER Sell These Watches - Rolex, Omega, Patek Philippe and Watches That are Money in the Bank

- Rolex, Omega, and Patek Philippe makes many of the world's most collectible and valuable luxury watches. While true in general, it's particularly the case for certain models such as the Rolex Oyster Perpetual, Omega Speedmaster, and Patek Philippe Calatrava. In rare cases, these watches become more than timepieces; they're an asset class. Tonight's show focuses on luxury watches that are excellent bets to hold their value for the savvy watch collector-investor. Do not sell these watches if you already own them!
The Rolex Oyster Perpetual is the progenitor of all modern Rolex watches and most modern sports watches in general. Born of the 1926 Rolex "Oyster" water resistant case and the 1931 "Perpetual" rotor automatic winding system, the Oyster Perpetual was a landmark watch that remains a staple of the 2023 Rolex watch collection.
But the 2020 arrival of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 41mm (reference 124300) marked the debut of several special dials now highly sought by watch buyers. Nothing propels collectible Rolex watches like distinctive and discontinued dials, and the Rolex OP41 already has several. While the well-known Rolex "Tiffany" turquoise dial was discontinued after 2021, so was the vivid "coral red" dial prized by many Rolex enthusiasts. While OP41 Tiffany prices remain locked in the mid-to-upper $30,000 range, the equally rare OP41 coral red trades at $10,000-$12,000 less for the same watch with a comparably attractive dial.
The Omega Speedmaster has been around for so long - and in so many iterations - that even committed watch collectors can become exhausted with the line. But 2020 marked the return of a legend; long discontinued Omega caliber 321 was relaunched in package with panache to match. The limited production Omega Speedmaster Calibre 321 struck a chord with watch enthusiasts, space enthusiasts, and watch collectors who like the idea of vintage watches but not the compromises.
Powered by a Lemania-based column wheel calibre 321, the affectionately nicknamed Omega Speedmaster "Ed White" (311.30.40.30.01.001) recalls the vintage Omega Speedmaster 105.003 worn by American astronaut Ed White during his 1965 Gemini program spacewalk.
That Pre-Moon Speedmaster returns in a faithful 39.7mm stainless steel package whose only concessions to modernity are sapphire crystals, a display caseback, and general refinement. While the Omega's retail price of $14,600 is multiples of a standard Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch, the "Ed White" trades at well over $20,000 as a preowned watch, and that's despite three years of continuous production.
Other watches in today's feature include the Rolex Cellini Prince collection, the Rolex Sea Dweller 116600, the Rolex Deepsea Sea Dweller D-Blue 126660, the Rolex Datejust Turn-o-Graph 116263, the Patek Philippe Calatrava Pilot 5522A-001, the Patek Philippe Calatrava 6000G-012, the Patek Philippe Gondolo 5105P, the Patek Philippe 5960/1A, the Ulysse Nardin Freak, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Annual Calendar 25920, and the A Lange & Sohne Saxonia Thin Copper Blue 205.086

I wish photos of all watches Tim spoke about were shown
All the watches I planned to discuss were pictured, but when viewers ask about watches or I talk about watches not in the plan, there's no way to find and load slides in real time. I'd need a CNN-level control room to pull unplanned images in real time or something close to it.
Best,
Tim
@WatchBox Reviews really it's that difficult to type the watch in question into the GOOGLE search bar and hit enter? The computer is right there infront of you
Don't love this topic but the insight, detail, and scope of this video was incredible. Thanks Tim! 45 minutes of awesome.
Thanks for sticking with me. Topics need to be fairly mainstream, but how I populate the discussion is more flexible. The weird Zeniths of the world are more interesting to me.
Best,
Tim
In terms of the watches' "money in the bank" property. I bought a PP 5146J last year for 40k USD, but now its prevailing price went down to 35k ish... Not sure whether it can go up back or not.
I look forward to this show every week. Makes Mondays better . 😀
You're 24 years too late,sold my 321 Speedy and 1680Sub (for a profit) for $2100 and $3300 in '99 so you can see how "cheap "they were back then.Patek Calatrava could be had for around 5-6k!!should have bought one and kept the other two and saved myself soooo much money time and effort on subsequent purchases(Breitling B1 anyone?)could have been happy forever but we're all wise in hindsight😩
Thanx Gents!!! Another informative and great show.... 🥃🥃🥃
Biggest regret for me is selling the sea dweller without cyclops
Tim, you are awesome, thank you for doing these shows!!! Better than anything else on “TV”!
Yes Thank you Tim 💪🏻
What would you say if the 136660 and D-Blue got discontinued altogether after a short run? In that event the only thing better about the 126660 would be the diver's extension but loses out on the 136660's reduced bezel insert, AR coating, flat wearing RLX caseback, and larger date window with much better positioning instead of floating into the middle of the dial. I don't think the diver's extension makes up the difference but time will tell.
I can barely even see the difference between the 13 and the 12, so I'd miss the fold out extension. I've had both of these watches in my hand, and the aesthetic differences are blah. The fit, function, and style differences between 2017 and 2018 were huge, however. I'd never consider a 116660, but I'd consider a 126660 for a weekend watch.
Best,
Tim
Great show as always
Missed the evening show but happy to catch it still 15hrs later. Cos to catch it live will be 6am my side.
This is, of course, another great video by you Tim. For me, however, these videos tempt me to buy something I don't really love because it is "collectible". I have really only ever bought a watch that sings to me, so the content here is useful insofar as it might accidentally tell me that a piece I own is collectible, but it doesn't really guide me in what to add to my collection. Thanks again!
That rolex he kept telling you to NOT SELL its actually even easier then that just DONT BUY IT!!!
What a great episode.Well done Tim, well done.
Thanks for watching! That makes it easier to keep the show going.
Best,
Tim
Thanks Tim & team
Hey Tim love the show! What do you think about the 40mm titan/steel PAM 122 Luminor with the El primero mvmt? Is that a collectible Panerai? As I have heard it went for a short run and its not often that two competitor corporations colliding and made a nice watch. Thanks! Cheers!
At 2:51 the A. Lange captured my eye. What is the reference number?
It's a Langematik Perpetual 310.021
Best,
Tim
@@the1916companywatchreviews thanks
Danny, I got one from WatchBox a few months ago. It’s amazing and better than any pic I’ve ever seen. Highly recommend this watch.
@@Carvewater Mike, thank you for your feedback. Were you able to negotiate the price with WatchBox?
@@dannysimenauer5745 As of now there are none available anywhere. Hard to find and they move quick. Unless the price is crazy high or something is wrong I doubt anyone would negotiate much if any. Journe has an awesome piece but it’s not a value anymore. The Lange is.
Another great show Tim! I’ve been looking at Tudor so please advise the model number of the Black Bay Black you reference (24:58)?
79220N
I made the wrist shots. So this is what fame feels like.
Garrick, yes! More of that. Hope to see you review the 39mm in-house movement S5.
I'll reach out and see if I can get one for testing. This S6 has been tremendous - love it.
Best,
Tim
If you never sell them then there is no money
7597 breguet is the best!
Should I sell my SD43 2nd generation if I need money 💰 for real estate 🏡?
Tim, will pocket watches make a come back? And for sub $5000 what to buy? Thank you
It is highly unlikely that they will ever make as comeback in terms of use, but the very rare items will always be highly sought after I am sure.
Master, what is recomdation for a Oris watch?
Patek 5960 anything is great, I have the platinum version with anthracite dial 👌🏻
Hi Tim !
You know that a Tim caliber is coming in the future!
Awesome video!
GP Laureato Infinity Onyx dial 188pcs … sell or keep?
Keep if you love it. GP has no collector momentum behind it, so even the best models like the Infinity likely aren't impossible to replace or likely to become scarce in the marketplace.
Best,
Tim
@@the1916companywatchreviews Thank you so much
Damn JC biver was in the chat?
seeing 116600-003 for in the 17's. Sounds low vs. the low 20's Tim mentioned?
Yea I heard that and think he just misspoke.
@@Carvewater Thanks Mike. I was thinking of picking one up for 'safe'keeping and wearing the one I have. 👍
What was the first wristshot?
Rolex 126610LV
Best,
Tim
Thx Tim, thought it was the starbucks but was unsure. Nice weekly vid as always!
At 5:47 you say the FPJ CB is a "long term hold, very much so." Then at 40:44 you say the CB is "just about valued." Which is it?🤔😄
I can't sell cause I can't buy....😊
Not a fan of this format. I couldn't make it through the sections where he keeps reading off everyone's names. Would have enjoyed hearing the content though.
I was surprised to hear Tim imply that A. Lange & Sohne was having trouble selling watches. The company is simply requiring prospective buyers of the very popular Odysseus, to have been previous owners of the brand. Lange produces only about 5,000 watches a year, so the Odysseus is a very limited and highly desirable watch, Do you think a first time buyer of Porsche will receive an allocation before the 4th time buyer? ...

Watches inside safes lol where is the meteor already
The pontiff no longer recommends safes.
Nautili 😂
Im a fan of the show for many years, this was not my favourite topic.
New topic next Monday, guaranteed.
Best,
Tim
