Well, I wouldn't really worry about value retention, just buy used/bottom of the depreciation curve. You'll probably still lose a bit of money but it's no big deal to enjoy great art.
The GF stuff is amazing, especially the older watches but I think Romain Gauthier, MB&F, Voutilainen, Armin Strom, etc... all give you way more value for the dollar.
The newer GF ones definitely short change a bit on the finishing. I posted a thread on WPS and someone highlighted some examples of this.
Unfortunate since I really was close to impulse buying one of the new S series watches lol
