Rolex Dive Watches like this Deep Sea are often seen as good value for money when purchased new as they are extremely well made, reliable and very popular, plus the Rolex brand is the world's most well-known.

Three Watches from British Microbrand Studio Underd0g - https://underd0g.com/

These Lange 1 watches are exclusive and popular, so people wait a long time to receive one. Their fame, beauty and unique movement make them very expensive, but they can still be very good value for money if bought sensibly.

This is a vintage Piaget Dress watch. Deep research into the watch before purchase would be very sensible to avoid mistakes.

A Christopher Ward C60 Trident Bronze GMT that was in the author's collection for many happy years before it was recently sold to make room for a new watch, at a very good price but one much lower than it was purchased for.
