Hi I'm thinking of gettting my first Pam and wondering which Contemporary Luminor model holds the best value? I'm thinking if I should get one with bracelet or strap?

If you are concerned about depreciation, my advice is to get a preowned one. PAM watches used to hold their value quite well but not anymore. Just look at how slow the watches are moving in the sales garage even with lower asking price than before.Watches are like potato chips - You never stop at one

Panerai like other watch brand can also be subjected to price drop & certain % cut after it is being worn. Generally, they still hold value. Of course don't expect it to be $15k after you bought for $12k something like that.Originally posted by pegasi View PostIf you are concerned about depreciation, my advice is to get a preowned one.

I think holding value is secondary. Buy a model that you'll like & keep for at least a few years. If you buy & then sell within 6 months, whichever brands, most likely you'll lose money.
Most of the luxury watch brands' price/value has been affected quite badly in the past few years.
