【買什麼表最保值？】表友花十幾萬買的表，再賣時連零頭都不到？

Hello everyone welcome to this video Today I'm here to share a story from a watch friend This watch friend spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy a women's Omega watch Then when they were just about to sell it they were told that the value of the watch might only be a fraction of what they originally thought which made them very upset What exactly happened here A watch enthusiast from Zhejiang contacted us recently wanting to sell a women's Omega Constellation this very watch a 35mm Constellation White gold watch case with a diamond white strap White back cover with a turbine-like radial pattern Diamond-set dials with small minute markers The overall appearance is still very elegant This watch uses the same co-axial movement as the 2202 model It was launched in 2012 The official price was 170 000 After we saw this watch He was given a suggested selling price of over 40 000 yuan He got anxious upon hearing this price He thought were deliberately underpricing to deceive him In fact there was no such thing as underpricing Because it's a consignment model the higher the selling price is actually more beneficial for the platform That's why we are giving this suggested selling price The main consideration was the special nature of this watch The special nature of this watch is there are many similar discounted watches circulating in the market which are commonly referred to as parallel imports The same new parallel watch is priced around 70 000 yuan in the market Our suggested retail price of more than 40 000 yuan is also based on this price Most people may really find it hard to understand Why is there such a big difference in the price of the same watch What does "parallel watch" mean Let's do a simple popular science explanation today The parallel import is the term used in Japan which basically refers to discounted watch models purchased from other countries and discounted products are very common in everyday life Normal merchants will discount or sell slow- moving products at a lower price Due to different consumer habits in each area a style that sells well in one city may not sell well in another Likewise a popular watch model in our country may be a slow seller in another country and those with sense will buy them at low prices from different countries Buying these slow-selling items and then selling them in their own country is called parallel import in our country Currently our country allows parallel imports of cars but not of watches However in Japan parallel imports of watches are legal and because they are cheap So there are many parallel imported Japanese watches coming into our country Similarly many people also purchase these low-priced watches from other countries in this way and then bring them back to sell domestically This is what makes up most of the discounted price lists we see today These lists still have an impact on the market Take this zodiac model as an example A new parallel list is priced at around 60 000 to 70 000 yuan Actually to put it plainly this is still a smuggling act Moreover due to the government 's crackdown and the impact of this pandemic This type of channel has been basically cut off The number of discounted watches is decreasing Therefore the second-hand prices of these discounted models are starting to slowly recover According to our understanding this friend of the watch was wearing this watch when he bought the cabinet If you think about it from another perspective anyone hearing such a price might get a bit angry So this again brings us back to an old question which is the issue of a watch 's resale value To be honest most of us don't get involved in selling watches They don't really need to consider the watch's value because they are the ones wearing them It' s like a homeowner with a necessity who tends to care less about fluctuations in property prices What should we do when it comes to buying a watch if we really care about its resale value First the value retention rate we are referring to is the ratio of the second-hand price to the official price Determining the value retention rate requires evaluation from many perspectives For example brand style model also consider whether it has special significance and factors such as market hype we will give a few simple examples starting with the brand Rolex and Glashütte's resale value differs greatly From a design perspective both are similar but the Royal Pixel's resale value is significantly higher than the Millennium The special significance of this model is the same as the Speedmaster but the Snoopy limited edition is much more valuable than the regular production model As for the Omega Constellation model Actually the regular gold-plated model is more valuable Moreover we have found in our daily work that the best-selling one is this gold-plated quartz constellation with a 24-hour dial So compared to this gold model this watch has much better resale value So in summary the answer to this question is simply this: actually this is the same principle for any second-hand item Let's get back to this watch First it's not a limited edition or a commemorative model Second it doesn't have complicated functions but rather a simple three-hand design Its main selling point is its all-gold case and diamond-encrusted design So the price of 170 000 actually offers a very wide range of choices For example the Rolex Datejust an excellent watch the baby's moon phase if you like sports watches you can also choose the Daytona the Oyster Perpetual even the Royal Oak There are plenty of choices to choose from I've always thought that the secondhand market is like a pile of raw gold It can help us see the true value of some products Although there is also some malicious hype and some illegal activities here most situations are still relatively genuine Actually recently I sold an old phone myself Although I have seen a lot of promotion about the rise of domestic smartphones in the past two years it wasn 't until I put my old phone up for sale on Xianyu that I realized Apple phones are still the most valuable That's just how realistic it is As long as someone is willing to pay that price it's worth the money That's all for today Thank you for watching Follow Biaoteng Community Professional and transparent buying and selling with peace of mind See you next
