What modern Omega watches have increased in value?

One modern Omega that seems very rare in the second-hand world is the Blue Skyfall Aqua Terra 8500...I was infatuated for this one for a while, and it is incredibly hard to come across! Wouldnt be surprised if the price for that one will be climbing...

I’ll never sell my AT 8500 Skyfall 38.5 for mere dollars. 😀

I think that a 42 mm 1st generation Planet Ocean in near-mint condition would sell today for more than it's original retail price, especially if it's a late-production example with the 2500D.

I also agree with padders that the 39 mm Railmasters based on the 1st generation Aqua Terra are hot right now. Got mine for a song off of Watchgrabber about ten years ago just as they were going out of production.

I'd wish the Gemini IV wouldn't have taken off so drastically over the last two years thou 🤔.

So few sales it's even hard to know what the going price is for the best Speedmaster LE ever produced.

I remember when they were under $3k and that was a few years back. I'm guessing it would be considered a steal if you could buy a complete set for under $6k.

I've often thought about the rate of increasing speedy collectors and how sustainable it is. After all, some of these LE are in what? 2000+ count? That seems rather high when you multiple that across multiple references.

It'll be interesting to see what Omega does going forward. With the 60th Reissue, will they see that as an opportunity to continue re-releasing old classics (2998? Perhaps an Ed White remake?) or maybe take a chance outside the norm and look for new branding opportunities (Speedmaster Space X Edition)
