If you can get 85-90% your doing well. Hard to find models or ones with long waiting lists hold there value well, but the mass market ones not that much.
Bought my sea dweller for £2,200 new. List was £2,450. At the time there were 10 year and older sea dwellers on e-bay going for £1,800 plus. Around 75 to 80% of list price. I saw "specialist" shops selling them second hand for £2,300.
Now that the list has gone up to £2,700 ish it means that 80% of the currrent list is around £2,150 ish .... almost what I paid for mine new.
This is why I think I would get most of my money back if I decide to sell.
I believe first to do ceramic cases, if you like that sort of thing, nothing special inside though, all part of the swatch group and we know what the make.

As I said hard to get models, stuff like sea dweller, chrono's and the like.
