If you want to see $6500 depreciate buy this watch . Thats a lot for a seiko. In this price range there are better options such as : Omega, IWC, Breitling, pre owned Rolex

Does Omega, IWC, Breitling not depreciate? Buy a gold Rolex of any kind including the Daytona and lose 50% when selling it. A watch is something you buy because it appeals to you, not because it is an investment.

You can buy a used $30k Rolex Daytona for under $15k any day of the week.

You guys are obviously neglecting to remain on the original topic. My thread is about the Grand Seiko, not about Omega, Breitling, or Rolex. Please feel free to start your own thread on the topic of your choice. Thank you.
