Just goes to show that the only reason people are buying these nowadays is pure speculation and expectation that the prices will continue to go up... nothing to do with renewed genuine interest

Wonder which models will be the next hot item. Anyone have a crystal ball?

This is purely gaxing in the crystal ball (i.e. pure guesswork):

If the craze continue (i.e. too much cheap money in the system and proliferation of the somewhat flawed idea that watches represent a kind of new investment grade asset class), I would predict a solid and rising multiplier vs. retail for:

- Remaining Rolex sports / steel models (i.e. Airking, Explorer I/II, Milgauss and OP)
- Patek Calatrava (especially 5212A and any new Calatrave models they might release in the coming year)
- Lange Odysseus (both steel and WG)
- Vacheron Overseas
- Bulgari Octo Finissimo
- Perhaps the Omega Snoopy award 50th (supply vs. demand remains to be seen)
- Perhaps selected indies (like Grönefeld Principia, Moser Streamliner, Urban Jürgensen Alfred / One, Czapek Antarctique etc.)

In addition I think we will see some movement on value for "golden era" Patek vintage pieces like 3970, 3940 and 2526.
