Is buying a PP Nautilus 5711A at retail new basically money in the bank these days? Would I be able to sell it on for a profit tomorrow?
Yes absolutely.
The waiting time for a new one is about 3-5 years so you will be able to sell it for profit.

The 422 is a connoisseurs choice no doubt, however the 423 is also one of the best but for the minimilast look the 557 is hard to beat.
The PAM00422 does look v nice. Wonder if they have them at Heathrow?

This was a quote from watchfinder in April, just taken from another forum:
This is for blue dial though, white dial will be less but still should be some profit.

The plain nautilus (without all the bollocks) is the one to get, such a beautiful watch, timeless.

Yes it is. Everyone knows it's the watch thats "more expensive than Rolex" ie it's purely a status symbol for a lot of new rich.

I agree with this to an extent. But primarily amongst the watch community. The majority of the population have never heard of Patek and Rolex is the brand which is most synonymous with wealth and luxury. However, as Patek becomes more "known" there is an increasing trend of the new rich (obviously along with actual true watch lovers) who are gravitating towards Patek as it is viewed as one upping the Rolex owners. I saw this quite a but when I was in Dubai.

Hardly a watch bought by people that don't have a clue then is it! Let's face it every other cunt has a rolex these days, you don't have to be wealthy to own one and therefore those that are wealthy will go for something different that sets them apart, but don't agree that they are clueless at all.
^ Thanks.
I'm also looking to add the following at some point..
IWC Ingenieur
Panerai PAM00422
Rolex no-date Sub

Mr X - Of course I do 
Always thought I wanted that watch but kind of left me unimpressed, would rather buy a complication by them from a little bit more. They also have a world timer and other complications for sale which kind of a surprised me.

The Nautilus is probably my favourite Genta design. Notice how the bezel resembles a port hole on a ship, and the subtle guilloche combined with the dark blue makes you think of deep water. It's a masterpiece.
The cork box that the originals came with is also incredible.

There's a beautiful (near NOS) Zenith A3630 on ebay at the moment, though the seller is probably asking for too much… probably won't be worth that much for a couple of years http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/182498984318

Cheers Deuce, will get looking.

A Patek is hardly a watch that people without a clue buy, it has strong heritage. Fair enough the design might not be to your taste but it definitely can't be described as a timepiece for those that don't know better.
Yes it is. Everyone knows it's the watch thats "more expensive than Rolex" ie it's purely a status symbol for a lot of new rich.
