Advice on Mid-Luxury Brand

I'm a Patek and Rolex only person and I'm looking for advice. I want to buy something else as a gift 10k, but I want a brand that will hold value. I'm considering Paneri, IWC, Omega, Chopard. Any advice? Thanks,

Definitely a Cartier Santos if it's up your alley. Ulysse Nardin and Vacheron are also timeless and sought after.

Omega Speedmaster Professional comes to mind. However, I’d take a look at the JLC Reverso. Without knowing which Patek you own, and assuming your Rolex are of the professional variety, the Reverso would give you an icon in a dress configuration from a well-respected movement manufacturer.

The new Omega Speedmaster 3861 on the bracelet and add a few OEM straps for a change up. You will still have some of your 10k left and the recipient will have a classic watch. And you can go into an AD or Boutique and buy the watch on the spot and they may even give you a slight discount. Nice gift.

Grand Seiko is nicely and actually underpriced for a greatly finished watch.

Over what period of time? When do they plan to sell the gift?

Well, what timeframe are we talking here? Don’t buy a brand new Omega because it won’t hold value within a shorter timeframe lol.

Cartier Tank or Santos. They are truly beautiful watches

It will come down to what you are looking for in a watch. You havent given us parameters. Are you looking for a dress watch, a sports watch, are you looking for something on leather or on a bracelet? We could be here all day unless we know what it is that you want or what the person you are giving the gift to wants in a watch.
