Rising supply causes Patek Philippe Nautilus and Rolex Daytona prices to slide

Prices for discontinued watches such as Patek Philippe’s blue-dialed Nautilus and Audemars Piguet’s Royal Oak Jumbo have been falling since peaking in March.
Chrono24, a global online watch trading marketplace, says reports of the price collapse in the secondary market are exaggerated.

As WATCH PRO recently revealed, popular watches such as Rolex, Patek Philippe, and Rolex were already trading at many times higher than retail prices earlier this year.

The rarest and most popular, especially discontinuing models such as the replica patek philippe Nautilus 5711/1A and the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Jumbo, continued to rise in price before falling at the end of March.

Rolex’s range of the most in-demand Oyster Perpetuals also went out of production at the end of the first quarter. Their values soared until then, but have since fallen sharply, in some cases by half from their peak to the end of June.

Chrono24 acknowledges that prices have softened in some areas as traders put more of their popular watches up for sale.

“We’re currently experiencing a consolidation in the market – there’s more supply and therefore prices are falling. The supply of unicorns or trophy watches, which were very limited for a long time, such as the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711A or Rolex Daytona, is now much more available, so individual watches are getting cheaper,” describes Tim Stracke, co-CEO of Chrono24.

There have been reports that dealers have virtually stopped buying and selling among themselves – a significant volume on the secondary market – but Mr. Stracke says trading has risen.

“In the first half of this year, we saw a significant year-over-year increase of more than 50 percent in trading volume for Chrono24,” he reveals.

The secondary market overheated in the first quarter of the year, but has since cooled off.

While prices have fallen in the second quarter, they are still well above the levels seen in recent years and significantly higher than the authorized dealer prices of the prestigious Unicorn best replica watches list.

Chrono24 data shows that the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711A ($35,000 AD) still sold for as much as $240,000 in the first quarter before dropping 21% to $190,000; still more than five times its list price.

Audemars Piguet’s Royal Oak Jumbo peaked in March at around $158,000 before dropping back 22% to $123,000 today.

While dealers are making a profit by selling more unicorn watches, an alternative market for the usual AP, Patek, and Rolex watches is creating buying opportunities.

Luxury Sport Watch Ultimate Buying Guide

In recent years, sports watches have become one of the most popular and diverse watch categories, and almost all manufacturers now produce models or collections that can be classified as part of this larger category of luxury watches. However, not all sports watches are created with a specific sport in mind, and even the definition of “sports watch” itself can sometimes be a bit blurry and open to interpretation.
With this in mind, most collectors will agree that sports best replica watches are usually built to robust standards and have a fair degree of water resistance. Beyond that, what constitutes a sports watch is fairly open-ended, and while some sports watches adhere to a simple and straightforward time design, others include additional features and complications specifically designed for their intended purpose.

Classic sports watches are not designed for a specific sport but are designed to be worn during a variety of different sports and demanding activities. These models usually do not include any other additional features or complications to help them perform their intended tasks, and depending on the specific manufacturer, these sports watches can come in many different forms.
Rolex’s first sports watch was the Explorer, which debuted in 1953 to celebrate mankind’s successful ascent of Mount Everest. The Rolex Explorer was pure and simple in design. Unlike many of the brand’s other sports rolex replica watches, the Explorer had no additional features beyond its durable, water-resistant case and reliable self-winding movement. With this in mind, Rolex also produced the Explorer II, which took things up a notch with a date display and an additional 24-hour hand that could be used to track a second-time zone.
Another example of a sports watch that is not designed for a specific sport, but rather intended to be worn throughout a wide variety of outdoor activities is the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra. Unlike many of the other watches in the Seamaster collection, the Aqua Terra doesn’t feature a rotating diving bezel and is not a diving watch. However, with 150 meters of water resistance and a screw-down winding crown, the Omega Aqua Terra is good enough to accompany you into the water.
If you plan to spend a lot of time underwater, then you may want to consider purchasing a dive watch for yourself. Dive watches are easily one of the most popular types of sports watches, although few people actually still use them for scuba diving. A high water resistance rating is an absolute must-have feature for a dive watch, and most dive watches also include a legible display and a rotating bezel that can be used to track immersion times and decompression stops.
The Rolex Submariner was the brand’s original dive watch, first introduced in 1953, and would become the blueprint for all future underwater timepieces. However, Rolex actually has two separate collections of dive watches: the Submariner and Sea-Dweller, of which the Sea-Dweller collection is divided into the standard model and the Deep Sea model, with the Deep Sea representing Rolex’s most capable professional dive fake watch, which is water-resistant to an incredible (and borderline excessive) depth of 3,900 meters.

The GMT Master was launched in the 1950s, when a collaboration between Rolex and Pan American Airways led to the result, a watch that was being able to display multiple time zones. Our Rolex GMT Master collection is comprised of all the finest designs coming from the Swiss manufacturer, including the highly acclaimed Pepsi bezel model.
Initially, the fourth hand of the GMT Master was set by pilots to indicate the Greenwich Mean Time, thus, its name. Two of the most notable persons to rely on a Rolex replica GMT Master were Che Guevara and its brother in arms, Fidel Castro. After UTC was adopted by the aviation industry worldwide, most pilots relied on the watch’s fourth hand to display the Coordinated Universal Time.

Although the GMT Master was released as a strictly functional, work aiding watch, Rolex started to marker it as a luxury timepiece and released the model in all kinds of precious materials, including solid gold, white gold, and platinum.
This Rolex GMT Master, as its name suggests, has a uniquely colored bezel, the blue and red hues being the source for its name, reminiscent of the popular carbonated drink’s logo, whose colors are the common denominator. You too can own a piece of watchmaking history, without having to worry about spending a fortune on a simple accessory.
The lack of the Cyclops lens is reminiscent of the early Submariners, genuine tool watches that started a watchmaking revolution. While many people love the Subs, they dislike the popularity of this Rolex line. With the Rolex Submariner No Date, true aficionados can enjoy the much sought-after look, whit a twist that makes it truly stand out.
Out of all Rolex replica lines, one clearly stands out in terms of popularity, being one of the most acclaimed models of the 20th and 21st century, a true icon, having risen to cult status. The obvious difference between the Rolex Submariner No Date and the classic Sub is the missing date window,
It’s a stroll down memory lane, one that purists will most certainly appreciate. The success of this Rolex line relies on its ability to perfectly blend a sporty look with refined elements of style. We are talking about the Submariner. This Rolex Submariner No Date is the classic Sub’s younger brother, being introduced fairly recently, at the Baselworld 2012 convention.
Every watch lover can instantly spot it from a distance thanks to its unmistakable design, but only true aficionados know about the existence of a second model. Rolex’s very own trademarks can be seen in just about every Oyster collection. The even more minimal dial now generates a higher contrast, leading to increased readability in tough conditions.

Making The Case for Buying Vintage If You are Looking for replica Luxury Watches

It inherently depreciates when a watch goes from being ‘new’ to being ‘pre-owned’. While that’s a disappointment for the first owner, it’s good news for the savvy collector, who can let the other guy take that initial financial hit before purchasing the watch for a fraction at a cheap price. It means a wider world of more exotic pieces is open to you than would otherwise be possible if you had your heart set on only buying brand new.
The Rolex Daytona replica watch is a great example of a pre-owned luxury watch worth investing in. Besides, unlike cars, which drop off a fiscal cliff and just keep dropping, fine watches will generally lose a certain amount of their value and then level off. Buying pre-owned, when the worst of the depreciation has been shouldered by someone else, means there’s much less of a sting if you decide you want to sell your fake watch on again shortly.

Depending on several factors, such as rarity or the desirability of the brand, you could even find you’re selling the piece for more than you shelled out on it in the first place. The replica Rolex Daytona, some vintage Submariners, and some other rare Rolex watches have increased crazily in recent years.
Another great reason for choosing to go the pre-owned route is there’s a much stronger chance of you ending up with a watch that no one else has. Various models drop out of production at different times, and the piece you’ve coveted for years might no longer be available as a brand new buy.rolex-078267_07

Even though the watch you’ve set your sights on is a genuine item, that doesn’t mean all your potential problems just disappear. While buying a used car, a gleaming paint job has disguised many a lemon and will do nothing to prevent the transmission from dropping out the bottom five miles down the road. Similarly, just because your genuine pre-owned timepiece looks great, you don’t know what’s going on beneath the surface, and if you’re purchasing online, there’s no way to check.
Careful examination is important as is the reputation and reputability of the dealer. It’s also worth keeping in mind that compared to a brand new model, older watches will take more looking after and it’s a good idea to have them serviced more frequently than their modern-day counterparts.

The advantages of buying a pre-owned luxury replica watch are absolutely clear. An increase in buying power opens the door to options that would have remained otherwise closed, together with the chance of landing yourself a rare gem that you’re unlikely to encounter anywhere else. Choose carefully, research thoroughly and you can end up with not only a stunning timepiece but a very sound investment as well.
