If only there was a search website that we could type in questions such as this and the answers would be at our fingertips.

·I prefer dive style watches for a number of reasons. While I don't dive, I like the perceived ruggedness of the watch and that I can swim and vacation in them without real worry.
I bought an Omega Seamaster Pro 2531.80 like the one from Tomorrow Never Dies last summer, and I still find myself wearing it frequently in pretty much any occasion, be it with a suit or hiking and swimming with the kids.
I really enjoy my Seiko SPB077 if you're interested in something with a solid movement and unique case design or wear experience. I probably wear it more often than my SMP300 lately. It wears far smaller than it's measurements indicate, and comes with a smart, unique design for the price. The case is nicely polished, and the hardened coating hasn't scratched once yet for me. I was also able to find this for roughly 50% of the retail price, and I've see this watch available on a number of grey market sites and ebay.

·I don’t wear divers often so I picked up a used Tag Aquracer for 385. If you look around a lot of tags lose 50% when you walk out the door. I think the one I got brand new was over 1,200 which is insane. I’m not big on tags I just ran across a good deal. It will be my only one but it does have a nice dial.

·Tag somehow don’t hold resale value even when prices similar to the Omega.
The Seamaster will take about 15 years to get to half price of retail at the time it was purchased.
This just begs the question, does one get a new one and sell it many years later for not much loss. Or does one get an old one that doesn’t have the latest design but still end up paying atleast 50% of what the current retail price is.

·Swiss Military thingy, nicely made, cheap, tough, you won't feel too bad if you kill it. In fact you might even laugh.
Citizen ISO diver, serious kit, tough, never needs a battery. I don't think it can be killed.
Bulova Oceanographer reissue (on the right)... almost too nice to beat on.

In 15 years? It could be worth scrap metal for all we know. So, Rolex look, fit and finish, Rolex value retention in the near or even far future, but not Rolex money to spend... too many unknowns in your equation.
If you really want some value retention, buy a gold bar. Otherwise, forget it and buy a watch you can actually afford, and gives you some pleasure. We could advise you on that, not on resale value in 15 years.
Sorry to be a bit harsh but this "resale value" is beginning to get on my nerves; everybody talks about it nowadays. A watch is an expensive trinket, a self indulging expenditure not really an investment.
