In terms of value rentention this is a large consideration I wouldn’t want to spend 20K on something which will be half the price in less than half the price in 20years. I’m happy to get a used one as long as it has its box and papers.

Saw your post in GS sub forum as well asking about discounts. My feel is that you are still not very firm about getting an AP as your 1st piece. And more importantly, you might not be very prepared to enter the luxury watch market yet. Luxury timepieces are not a necessity nor an investment. Treat what you paid for as sunken cost, just like any enjoyable holiday you take. Any amount you can recover, should you sell, is a bonus. Take your time to explore which brand you really love enough to lose money on and probably you'll be more happy with your purchase.
