Investment scorecard

Momentum50Measured 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.
Liquidity12How easily it sells: recorded sales in the last 12 months (300 or more scores 100) and eBay's 90-day sell-through rate.
Scarcity79Demand 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 entry50Where 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 safety42How 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

Solid 18k white gold, the rarest metal in the 26mm family. Diamond-dial examples list around EUR 13,000 in Europe.

Scarce enough that pricing is lumpy: patient buyers find deals, patient sellers find premiums.

Solid 18k white gold at 26mm, the stealth-wealth version of the ladies' Datejust: reads as steel across a room, weighs like what it is. The President bracelet gives it away to anyone who knows.

White gold ladies' models are the thinnest supply pool of the vintage 26s, and the rally that lifted the steel versions has started pulling these up with a lag. The mother of pearl dials are the ones to fight for.

Our verdict: Rarity play inside the 26mm trend. Thin supply means slow flips but strong long holds.
