If everything you buy has to 'keep value' how do you eat or buy the necessities in life?

I buy the watch that I like and admire. I buy to keep. And if I sell I find it normal to lose money.

Where are all those watch enthusiasts who used to be here? Only 'I want a watch for free' people are left on these forums. So sad.
I feel like you are missing my point here.
It is not about buying a new watch and expecting it to hold 100% of it's value
What I am talking about here is buying a watch directly from a company representing itself as a top tier brand ( Breitling ), finding out ( shame on me ) that I made a bad purchase and finding out that all my options are terrible.
I don't think a truly top tier product should decrease in value by that much and that quickly.
