Pretty much says it all, really.

The best Rolex for investment is the model which will bring you happiness everytime you wear it for many years to come.

Very well said....the only way to go, IMHO.

What stocks?

I wonder how the OP's watch did in terms of value.

So four years ago the OP asked if the 16618 he was looking at would hold/increase in value. An estimate of the price four years ago was $18,000. I just looked and there is one for sale today at $17,600. So if he purchased that watch four years ago he hasn't lost any money since then and it will likely not depreciate further. Not too shabby.

Stainless steel sports models. But they are not good investment.
