Rolex are for those who have absolutely no knowledge about watches- just buying the watch because “hey look at me, it’s rolex!”
Those who appreciate watches will purchase watches because they can afford it with no intention to sell. They purchase it for its heritage. If you’re selling your collection means you’re in financial deepsh*t.

Rolex makes good tool watch. Something you can wear daily and instantly recognizable. Trust me retaining wealth is the most important thing in life. Fast forward decades later you will thank yourself for the decision you made earlier. Life always has up and down, when one hit a financial issue the watch with decent resale will help to keep you afloat and make a comeback. And when youre good again you can always buy back the same watch and even more into your collection

Since it is for your wedding, may I suggest, Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin. A classy, elegant dress watch well suited to wedding settings…

Since you are buying it for your wedding, I suggest getting a "His & Her" pair, meaning you likely need a model that have both men and lady's size, unless your wife have ...uh... ample wrist girth...

THat said brand wise..

1. Rolex I would say no, cause of the current premium, dont pay... BUT Datejust would be a nice men/women pair cause they comes with various size

2. JLC, Blancpain, Piaget, Breguet, Chopard etc... exquisite pieces, but 99% of your friends will never know the value or even heard of the brand

3. PM/Omega/IWC, Zenith, Breitling... likely good choice. Famous enough that the masses atleast heard of them, pretty decent watches too.

4. Tudor, Longines, B&R, Ball etc... not really high on the horology list, also well below your budget (I'm assuming 40k per piece).

5. PP, AP, Lange, VC.... out of budget.

Edit : 6. Cartier, a pair of Santos, or Tank would be very nice for a wedding pair watch

If you're not buying to sell then it does not matter.

If you are buying to sell then it doesnt matter, if you are buying to wear, then confirm sorhai.com paying these premium. Its liek paying 300k for a proton when you can get a BMW for the same price.

How so?
You buy to wear and enjoy even if you pay a premium you don't sell you won't make any losses. Price go up or down does not concern a watch collector

If you buy to sell, you buy high sell low then really sohai.

Then in a few years price surge up and some people will knock themselves for not buying earlier when prices are cheaper. In the end FOMO buy at the peak....smile.gif happened in 2020/21

If you are talking about Rolex in particular then one will pay a premium whether to grey dealers or through "bundle deal" with AD. Its just impossible to walk into a Rolex AD to buy a sports model these days, anywhere in the world.

I think it depends on your AD and the $$$ of your relationship with AD lo. Usually if AD say put you on the normal interest list then is BS la. Its a nice way to tell you to go away.
