![]() Have Luxury Watches Lost Their Shine? Market Analysis for 2024After a wild few years, the fine watch market is on a knife edge. Is it time to buy, sell, or hold?
While losses may have slowed in recent months, last year has been challenging for collectors. Here's the 12-month data on the average prices for top 5 brands.
Buy, sell, or hold? The market has been in decline for two years. But there are signs things are changing. In the last three months, the overall market is down almost 1%; February saw a slight uptick of 0.1%. With the market in a precarious state, you've got three options: Buy: Has the market reached the bottom? Are luxury watches available at a 40% discount? Sell: Is there more pain to come in 2024? Is it time to cut your losses and exit the market? Hold: The market has stabilised, but should I hold on to achieve better margins? Listen to market experts, and you can find support for each option — things are really unpredictable now. Another thing to consider is that only specific models are selling below retail. Right now, 68% percent of Rolex, 66% of Audemars Piguet, and 48% of Patek Phillippe models appreciate in price, even in the face of overall trends. Of course, having access to watch market data isn't enough in this choppy market.
