for whatever reason my wife seems to like the watches Gucci puts out...probably bought her 8 or 9 of them over the past 29 years
pretty sure they're worth next to nothing after the fact.....$40 quartz movement...non-precious metals, styles that get dated etc
she actually nailed me for one when we went to pick up my Seamaster Chrono in January.....I wasn't about to say no considering what I was putting on my wrist
but....we've probably spent around $7000 on all those Gucci pieces.....and I'd be surprised if the lot of them were worth like a few hundred at best now
if we dropped that $7k on something like an Omega Ladies Seamaster Auto.....it would still be worth thousands today
and the Quality manufacturers stand by their stuff....back in 2015 I broke the hidden clasp button on the bracelet of my Oris....and I bought it from a club member...so while I have the box and papers it's not like I bought it from a retailer.....but, I walked into the Oris dealer in the Royal Bank Centre downtown....he sent it out to Oris' head office in Montreal...and they apologised for that happening and fixed it for free...at this point it was probably a 6 year old piece out of warranty.....needless to say I wouldn't hesitate to buy another Oris when one turns my crank
