So my AD offered my this watch in one of the exhibitions of zenith.

Price is 12300€ and it's limited to 500 unites world wide.

I really like the watch but already own a few ones and only buy if its a possible good investment.

Should I pull the trigger? Maybe will be a good investment?

The question is: will you regret not buying it later on if you pass it up?

Run from that place and person. If he told you a pink 41mm Zenith is a good invetsment at MSRP, dont trust anything more he tells you. Always buy a watch if you love it, dont buy i to hype, recognition or as an investment. Its a piece of jewellery not a retirement fund

He didn't tell me that it would be a good investment, I'm just trying to figure out if it would be a good investment. I like the watch but I already have some watches and not really sure if I want to drop 12k on a watch even though I really like the difference look and the different bezel.

Dude its simple: you like the watch and dont mind loosing 12k, buy it

Looks like it was made in China.

Watches are traditionally not good investments unless you get extremely exclusive pieces at retail, and those pieces are sold before they ever touch a display counter.

And, you most likely have to be registered with that maker on a wait list to boot.

Their other pink limited editions have fallen almost as much as the regular models. I don't see how this would be different.

I think it's a beautiful watch, though, and I'll gladly pay you 8k for it in a few years if you decide to "invest" in it!

[–] afonsoocosta@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For 8k I would pull the trigger, but for 12k I think I will pass.

I really hope I'm right about this one. I'd love to pick this up in, say, 2-3 years.

A Chronomaster has always been one of my grails and I think the pink is so unique and stunning, I think I'd prefer it over the iconic tricolor subdials.

I've also been offered the tricolor subdials but I will pass that one as well
