Unfortunately I feel it’s not that uncommon with newer models coming out etc.

I was lucky and got a sale on eBay for what I had paid. But was a little touch and go

I lost money on every (classic Seamaster/Deville etc) Omega I sold, and they were nice 60’s/70’s ones. That was a few years ago and I don’t see the market ever got much stronger.

Bizarrely in the last few months I’ve seen the 70’s Tissot Seastar prices climb. Maybe people are buying the cheaper end because of this wobbly value proposition at the better end?

I would expect that to be the case now with the lower end, just moves else where with a lesser of a risk now that the Swatch stuff has had it's day and normalised with sales. People might be looking for the next thing and go to the lower end of the market
