Which model is the "sleeper" / Used Prices

By "sleeper", Im really referring to the best value on the used / second hand market. In other words, which model do you find looses the most value? I know watches arent investment. I get that. I find some models are better purchases on the used market than others. IMHO both the black dial DSSD (116660 / 126660) are the best buys. These black dial models can be found significantly under MSRP on the second hand market. Any other models come to mind?

116600. Though pricey, I only see them trending up in price. 14060m can be had at a good price. Though there are plentyyyy of them, they are right between vintage and modern, great reference. As they get harder to find, might trend up. 116660 is a decent value. Not wearable IMO, but may become collectible. Slim chance, but maybe 116900. Cool piece and super unpopular. 16710 jumped way to high, too fast. Not sure that is going anywhere (except NOS, which is way too expensive as it is).

Unless you're looking for either of the 2 Snoopy models, Apollo X! 35th Anniversary, Mitsukoshi or Alaska Project, just to name a few of the most obvious ones......

I’ve seen a model listed at 11’300.- for 8700.- NIB on chrono24.

It’s a true shame, I would love to buy Omega, but the depreciation deters me far too much.

Some good suggestions.

I would say the blue 3-6-9 dial OP 36. Possibly also the Jan limited Edition turnograph 116263.
