Investment scorecard

Momentum89Measured price direction: the median recorded sale of the last 4 months against the median of 8 to 12 months ago. 50 means flat; small samples are pulled toward 50.
Liquidity62How easily it sells: recorded sales in the last 12 months (300 or more scores 100) and eBay's 90-day sell-through rate.
Scarcity54Demand against supply. For modern pieces, how far the market sits above or below current retail, plus a lift if production has ended. For vintage, how rarely one comes up for sale.
Value entry24Where the latest quarter's median sale sits inside its own 3-year range. Buying near the low scores high; buying at the high scores low.
Condition safety46How safe a typical example is: the age of the design, plus how tightly sale prices cluster (a wide spread means condition and originality swing the price).

The story

The small steel Santos Galbée, the ladies' Santos of the 1980s through 2000s.

Vintage-style small Cartiers are in demand, and this one's price rose about 16% this year.

Also sold under references W20017D6, W20054D6; every one of them is counted here.

Our verdict: Discontinued, so there is no boutique price to compare against. 33 recorded eBay sales in the last 12 months, and prices are up 16% over the year.
