For many people, the most common consideration when buying a big-name watch is a classic model that is not expensive and can cover the brand's characteristics.
But everyone also knows that the store will not let everyone easily buy this cost-effective watch, often adopt tie-in sales or queuing, so those who are favored have channels have exploited loopholes, let the watch flow into the secondary market, at this time the public price classic model has become a super public price explosion.
What should people who want to buy at this time? Of course, it will always pay attention to the market, combined with the analysis of the broader market to judge and wait for the opportunity, but for people who don't want to buy or even don't know much about watches, I think it is also necessary to know where these watches are the lowest amount of money to buy, after all, when I see someone around me wearing it one day, in addition to sending out this familiar remark, I can also talk about the price and characteristics.
So today I will take you to see what is the latest market threshold of the big brand super public price classic model, and in the process, I will also share a little of my views on the current market in combination with the big news of the collective price increase of big brands in the next year.
First of all, Rolex, which has caused confusion about the threshold line due to the frequent emergence of classic models, said that although the overall public price has risen by 6% to 10% this year, it has little impact on the market of popular classic models.
Like the basic sports watch threshold line that can be bought very signature and out of the circle at present, the threshold line is still 8W, and the style is the familiar black water ghost. The chronograph bezel is uniquely recognizable, and those who know the watch can see the Mercedes-Benz needle at a glance to know that Rolex is produced.
On this basis, if you want to buy a more popular green water ghost, prepare the door of the 12w secondary market to open for you at any time, and the one you can choose is the only green water ghost in Rolex that is now produced.
Don't look at this price is higher than the black water ghost, in fact, the green of the bezel does bring higher fame and significance to Rolex, I think that the green water ghost used this green belt to fire the green watch atmosphere, so think that the black ghost and the green ghost stained naturally the price is also low.
If you want a more professional timing function, you can consider Ditona, which has led the panda plate trend with its three-circle layout on the plate, and many celebrities including Bei Sister-in-law have mastered this Buddha-figure Panda Di.
However, the current threshold of 23W-24W in this series is a bit high in my opinion, and the ideal price that can be accepted is 21W, or the public price.
As for Rolex's characteristic formal watches, in fact, there are many options with lower thresholds, such as oysters or explorers, here I take a log model that is more appetizing to everyone but basically not at a public price as an example, such a watch that gathers classic jianghu elements such as five-bead chain, dog tooth ring, bubble window, etc., the lowest is just over 8w, which is especially suitable for those who want to buy labor and do not want to consider with big hits.
Rolex's classic models have many threshold lines because of different series, but fortunately, there are few watches with ultra-public prices in other brands, and the minimum threshold line is clear and easier to remember.
Like Omega, which is often compared with Rolex, the only watch that is really super public price and on sale is only the third-generation Snoopy Speedmaster (is it quite miserable to update thousands of pieces every year but only one piece of Omega that is remembered by everyone?). In fact, the brands that cannot be on the list today are even worse). Since the public price has risen by about 7.1%, if you want to buy, you must prepare at least 12.8w budget at present.
The reason why this watch can represent Omega is mainly because it carries a special honor. In 1968, NASA used a sterling silver "Snoopy" brooch to recognize Omega's contribution to the aerospace industry, and later Omega used the "Snoopy" pattern to commemorate this award to launch a small number of watches. Now the third generation is the 50th anniversary of the Snoopy Awards.
This watch is not like the previous two generations of Speedmaster Snoopy is put static elements on the back of the watch, but directly presented with animation on the back of the watch, making the overall more interesting, and even out of the circle to hang other watches at the same price, coupled with the number of 50th anniversary models is less, so that this watch has obvious advantages in both its own and similar types of watches.
Also in the Swatch Group is often noticed by Blancpain, their family fifty fathoms to Blancpain status is like the green water ghost and Rolex, and the signature sapphire crystal bezel has a silky curve, so that the scale on the bezel has its own amplification effect, this point of commotion is ashamed of the green ghost, so you can imagine how high the necessary value of this watch is.
In fact, in the first two years, the threshold of the Fifty Fathoms Aurora Green version was not high when the public price of the mini program was lottery, but because it was really popular, coupled with the current public price increase of 4%-10%, the market could compete with the green ghost.
At present, the basic model on the right is about 11w. If you have a budget, I would recommend buying the left chronograph model, which looks more distinctive.
After measuring Swatch and then look at the Lifeng brand threshold, since last month, Lifeng Group's Cartier has taken the lead in increasing prices, although several other brands have not yet acted, but will rise soon according to previous years of operation, so the following brand thresholds with ultra-public price models are not recommended for everyone to refer to for a long time.
First look at the Vacheron Constantin that many people dream of, their family is not expensive and can cover the classic model of the brand characteristics must be 4500V, Maltese cross elements throughout the entire watch, the bezel crisscrossing more layered, I remember that this watch can still be bought at a public price a few years ago, but in the past two years, as the screw tree is getting higher and higher, the four seas market that has inexplicably become a flat replacement has also gone up, and now the basic purchase threshold is at least 22w.
Share an interesting feeling, the VC cousin group originally had any style, and when the market rose, the group was full of this series.
Li Feng's other topical and ultra-public price model is Lange, and it is said that Lange will also adjust the price next month, with an increase of 10%-20%. Now if you want to buy his family's most distinctive ultra-public price watch, one choice is to prepare 69W and buy a bezel clear stream "owl". In fact, think that the tens of thousands of pieces that can consume this watch should not be worse than the premium, and this kind of dial taken from the digital clock is unique in the bezel, bringing much more harvest than the regular model.
There is also a "civilian" option with a lower threshold, that is, consider Odysseus, which began to exceed the public price in the past two years, as a Lange sports watch, its plate structure is highly recognizable, and this watch store is sold to tie in the sale, and the current purchase of the most entry-level market is about 43.8W.
Of course, Audemars Piguet and Patek Philippe are indispensable to the threshold of super-public prices, which are independent watchmaking companies because they are similar to Law, and there are more super-public price watches. Among them, the Imperial Oak series because of the recognizable octagonal bezel, fixed hexagonal screws, and the dial "Tapisserie" pattern, stands out in many series and even all members are popular beyond the public price, the current minimum threshold of large-size watches is 27.5W, and the threshold of small watches and quartz models is shown in the picture.
The following two models have a panda plate design on the basis of explosive elements, making the whole watch more cost-effective, but the threshold line is also higher.
Compared with Audemars Piguet's stacked ultra-public price, Patek Philippe's ultra-public price classic model is more like a full bloom, covering everything from sports to formal wear. Like the Nautilus 5712 in the sports watch, the symmetrical lugs and case shape are recognizable, and it is also the hottest snail after the discontinued 5711, and the current market is floating between 88w-100w.
The threshold of the "grenade" AQUANAUT series can refer to 5167, the secondary market is about 43w, its case is square with a circle like the nautilus, and the check pattern on the disk is barely a Patek Philippe signature element.
In addition to the two signature sports watches, the green disk in the PP complex is also close to the green of the Nautilus 5711/1A-014 because of the olive green tone, and at the same time has the blessing of hot elements such as stainless steel and chain belt, which is very cost-effective and super priced, and the recent market is about 55w.
Finally, there is the weekly calendar of PP steel (left below), and the blue plate of manhole cover with a limited amount of 1,000 pieces (right below), the purchase threshold of these two is not high if combined with the public price and output. However, this watch is also quite magical, because the brand has been adjusting its purchase model, and it often happens that the store was not given last month, resulting in the market exceeding the public price, and the next month it is open to buy at the public price.
It can be seen that although there are many watch brands at present, there are only a few big-name classic watches that have really achieved ultra-public prices. Their public price or market threshold line, will radiate each price like a benchmark to become a reference, and the style they drive to form a market, will also attract more brands to launch similar models, then will only make these watches more classic, so looking back many people have been wanting to buy a real value preservation without mistakes, the above can be chosen.
So finally, I would like to ask you if the watch you are interested in is also over the public price, how much can you accept the premium?
