There are some that believe you should always follow the trends
I believe in the opposite.
Do the exact opposite of what the market is doing.
So the market is strong in Rolex. Look at where the market is weak and buy that.
If the market is super weak in something then that's your target. Look at where you have the most opportunity because other people are afraid to touch it.
That doesn't mean you stop playing in Rolex. But the majority of buys will go into things that you can get great deals on.
Buy deals over your opinion of whether you like this watch or not.
