Maybe pre-owned is a better deal with good value?
Personally I've found that unless you spend over $6k for a watch, and keep the original box and certification, you will lose money really fast on a watch. Over $6k seems to hold value pretty well.

Having said that I never look at watches as an investment. I have some very very expensive ones, and some really cheap ones. I just get ones that I like, without worrying about resale. I have a Ulysse Nardin Blue Wave that I love, but I also have a fossel that I thought was cool, and everything in between, so....
