Robb Report: Eric Wind Quoted On Audemars Piguet Royal Oaks
Blake Buettner and Allen Farmelo recently wrote for Robb Report ‘Prices on AP Royal Oaks Are Dropping Fast. Here Are 5 You Can Buy Right Now.’ Within the article, Eric Wind is quoted.
Eric Wind adds a larger view of things: “The 5402ST is the origin of an icon. The A Series is worth about 2x the B and C, and the first 1,000 A Series are worth even more.” When we asked Wind about the overall market for Royal Oaks, he said, “Overall I’m still bullish with the first series. Watches are still behind art and cars [as collectibles], but the gap for early versus later [watch models] will continue to grow, just as it has with prints and cars.” When it comes to collecting in the luxury sector, nothing is ever as valuable as the original iteration.
