This Swiss watch is the masterpiece, the jewel in the collection of any knowledgeable collector. A Patek Philippe watch will cost the most but you can be assured that it will definitely stay as valuable as when you bought it, if not more. Certain rare models can cost as much as a million dollars, but there are plenty in the $5,000 to $10,000 range that can be a great investment to pass on to your children, loan against, or sell quickly, in a pinch.



Audemars Piguet
Another Swiss watch that is very well-known in the luxury market, an Audermars Piguet timepiece can cost a few thousand up to tens of thousands of dollars. Like the Rolex watches, most models of Audemars Piguet are very good resale pieces.



Rolex
Most known and popular watch in the world, this Swiss watch’s name is synonymous with success. A Rolex watch will be the easiest one to loan against or sell, because it is so well-known and always in demand.



Cartier
This French designer is renowned for its fashion icon status but also its classic watches for men and women. Unlike other fashion designer watches, the Cartier watches are known for keeping their purchase value. Be aware that the most recent models are usually in bigger demand than the previous decades’, or sometimes discontinued models, which don’t depreciate as well.



Vacheron Constantin
This is another collector’s favorite though not quite as known by the general public as the previous brand-names.
