Frequently asked questions

 

Let’s address some frequently asked questions about luxury watches.

 

Will a Datejust hold value?

Between 1994 and 2016, your Datejust would have grown in value by 221%. The Datejust has shown over the years that it retains its value. Indeed, some pre-owned Datejust pieces have not only retained value but grown in value over the last few years.

Rolex launched the original Datejust in 1945 for the Swiss watchmaker’s 40th anniversary. Despite its dated history, Rolex has only discontinued some models under the Datejust collection because of its high demand.

You can’t do any wrong with the Rolex Datejust 41 Custom Diamond Set with Blue/Roman Dial 116300. This Datejust is almost as new, and you can buy it online from Time4Diamonds.

Note that holding value also depends on several factors, including the model of the Datejust, how rare it is, the materials used, and how mint the watch is.

 

Is buying Cartier an investment?

 

You can classify some Cartier models as an investment because, over time, these timepieces have held value, with some increasing in price versus their original retail price.

Prime examples are the Cartier Tank and Santos gold models, Cartier Crash, and the Roadster Chronograph XL.

One of the reasons for our affirmative answer is Cartier’s commitment to producing elegant designs made with luxurious materials.

The Roadster Chronograph XL is a great option, and you can cop the Cartier Roadster Chronograph XL Custom Diamond Set W62019X6 on Time4Diamonds that has been spruced up with custom diamonds.

 

How much is a Tiffany Patek 5711?

 

Just days after its release, one was auctioned for £3,888,780 minus auction fees. At the end of 2022, another sold at auction for £2,491,398. Chrono24 has one listed at £2,177,971.

The retail price for the Tiffany Patek 5711 piece was £40,951 when it launched. However, since its launch, we've seen two limited edition watches sell at auction for ridiculous prices.

The Custom Diamond Set Patek Philippe 5711 Custom Tiffany Blue Dial on Time4Diamonds features our custom-made "Tiffany blue" dial.

 

Why are Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore watches so expensive?

 

Audemars Piguet belongs to the Big Three of the luxury watchmakers club. As such, demand for some of their flagship models, like the Royal Oak Offshore model, typically outpaces supply.

This situation forces customers into buying pre-owned watches, causing the price to rise.

And because Audemars Piguet continues to produce Royal Oak Offshore watches in limited versions, the price will continue to be expensive.

This is also the watch’s 30th anniversary, which may further put it into the focus of collectors.

Is Rolex GMT-Master II a good investment?

 

The Rolex GMT Master II price has decreased in 2022 per Chrono24, but the price has held steady for the last few years. However, original list prices are beginning to rise, which signifies a short-term reversal of fortune. This makes the Rolex GMT-Master II a good investment.

You should consider buying the Custom Diamond Set Rolex GMT Master II for sale on Time4Diamonds.
