They maybe hold their value but you are buying retail and selling wholesale so you are going to take a 30-50% shave.

Like the guy above, I bougth one when porn was so easy and now I wish I had the cash. I wear it about twice a year.
If you take your rolex to the right place. It is probably worth what you paid for it, if not more. The daytona for instance. 4-5 years ago you can buy one new or used for around the 8-9k mark. Now you cannot get one in good condition, again used or new. For less then 11k. Also, anything that is gold has gone up in value quite a bit just because of the price of gold in general. If you have a white gold, yellow gold or rose gold watch. Its worth more then you paid for it most likely. Rolex is one of the top watches that holds its value. This is fact, not opinion. A friend of mine got an Explorer II I believe when he graduated college. A guy at a watch store in the diamond district would have given him 4k cash or 5k trade for it and his watch is stainless.
