Heuer Calibre 36 Re-Edition

Just after a bit of advice on one of these:

Not had a Tag for years but this one caught my eye and looked good on my smallish wrist. However its not cheap at c£4500 and this is my problem, as much as I like it I can't bring myself to spend this much on a Tag. So is it worth it or will it plummit in value?

Or anyone else any good recommendations - leather strap, sporty model, upto £6k and will ideally not depreciate much.

I've seen second hand black faced Monzas for around £1500.

Me too, but this is meant to be some limited edition model..

I have only worn Rolex Sports models for the past 10 years+ so not used to depreciation and would be horrified if I came to sell it in a few years time for less than half what I paid for it.

I've seen one for the same price in a jewellers by Bond St tube.

For that money, I'd buy an original Heuer - far more likely to hold it's money, IMO.

Not worth the £4.5K, imho ... Although it does have the rather nice Zenith El Primero movement inside I'd get the existing Monza Calibre 36 with gullioche black dial. I've seen them listed for as low as £1.5K and the '36' denotes the use of the El Primero.

Watches & Jewellry of Bond Street have one for sale at £1950 ... Not the best of photos though:
