It’s become a familiar sight for us to witness Bollywood celebrities, Cricket stars, and other
famous Indian personalities flaunting their wrists with luxury watches that come at a staggering price, often worth lakhs and even crores.
Luxury watches have always been a symbol of status and wealth, and it’s no surprise that celebrities dive into the rabbit hole wonderland of luxury watch collecting and are often seen sporting some of the most exquisite timepieces.
But it’s not just an appearance of success or love of the spotlight, ‘watches are a lucrative source of investment’, reveals Indian Watch Connoisseur.
Brands like Rolex, Patek Phillipe, and Audemars Piguet among others tend to appreciate in value over time. Made in limited numbers from exquisite materials these watches become even more valuable as they become scarcer, making them a good investment option. These watches are infamous for being difficult to find at authorized dealerships but are often available in the secondary or pre-owned market for two to four times their original retail price.
For example, Shah Rukh Khan can be seen wearing a Rolex Daytona dressed entirely in White platinum (source: Indian Watch Connoisseur, Instagram).
