·Lots of Speedmasters in here, but let’s not forget the Liquid Metal LE Planet Ocean. Limited to just under 2000 pieces, trades at between 6 and $7k now - almost 2x from retail, and climbing from the last few years.

·...I stand corrected. The retail for the standard PO at the time was a hair under $4k. The LE variant carried a considerable premium with an MSRP of $5700. So while it hasn’t appreciated 2x as I embellished above, it is still trading above retail, which, for a Seamaster, ain’t exactly common.

·My first real watch purchase was a 2254 which I paid ~$2k brand new for from Tourneau in SF. I sadly lost that a couple of years ago on my Bachelor party in Hawaii, and insurance paid out $2800 for it.
Not crazy appreciation, but not bad for a non LE

·Why no love for an Aqua Terra Ryder Cup? Considering that only 616 were made, I would think that they might be collectable?

No..the LMLE PO was $5700 new. The standard PO at the time was $3700. The LMLE PO will only go up in value. The best modern PO and a timeless look.

·I think the 50th Anniversary "Patches" version of the Speedmaster are starting to go up quite a bit in value.

·I think any high sort after Speedmaster Limited Editions will go up in value. Good examples are the Snoopy, Apollo LEs, and the speedy Tuesday. I never figured out why the new CK2998 (good looking watch) did not go up in value.

Seems like the initial frenzy for the Speedy Tuesday and the 60th Anniversary is cooling off, we'll see where they end up trading. In the case of the CK2998, they made too many of them, and it was the first LE released after the Silver Snoopy so many of the buyers were speculators, and the price fell out once the true level of demand became clear. It really is a good-looking watch on the wrist, though.

I think it looks like a speedmaster that got dressed up to go to a wedding. Is it a sports watch or a dress watch? I think that this is why it is not so popular.
