Patek Philippe watches are in a special class when it comes to luxury watches. Although many Swiss watches are considered luxury goods, only a few brands appreciate in value after purchase, most notably Rolex and Patek. Between those two brands Patek owners benefit the most. All Patek Philippe watches are worth more pre-owned vs when bought new. Patek simply doesn’t produce enough watches to meet demand which is the main cause of the increase in worth of Patek watches. The Patek Philippe Nautilus is a great example of a watch that increases in worth. The reference 5711 costs roughly $35,000 MSRP but sells as high as $175,000 on sites like Chrono24. The estimated $140,000 increase in value for the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 demonstrates the investment potential of buying a Patek.
