Good evening everyone!

The watch market has been fluctuating rapidly over the past one or two months, and after an abnormally high price rise at the beginning of the year, it has now started to calm down and people are keeping a close eye on future trends.

In particular, the model that has seen the most significant price increases is

[ Vacheron Constantin ] " Overseas "

It is one of the three major watch brands in the world, and is a model that can be called the face of the brand. It has attracted attention as a luxury sports watch (hereafter referred to as "luxury sports watch") next to [Patek Philippe]'s "Nautilus" and [Audemars Piguet]'s "Royal Oak", and its value has greatly increased, but recently there has been a sudden drop in price.

So, this time I would like to talk about the current market price and future trends of the "Overseas". Please read to the end and use it as a reference.

About Overseas

The Overseas was born in 1996, about 20 years later, based on the Ref. 222, created in 1977 to commemorate the 222nd anniversary of the company's founding.

Currently regarded as a representative luxury sports watch and one of the most highly regarded luxury watch brands, this model features the Vacheron Constantin symbol, the Maltese cross, on the bezel, firmly reflecting the brand's identity.

Recent market trends

This time, I would like to talk about the market situation of the current model " Ref. 4500V/110A-B128 " . By looking at this model, we can see the market situation of the whole "Overseas" series.

Current market price

Reference: Kakaku.com (3 months)

First, here is a graph of the past three months. You can see that there has been a big drop in the one and a half months since the beginning of May. It is rare to see such a sudden market fluctuation, so I think many people were surprised.

Reference: Kakaku.com (1 year)

Next is a graph of the past year. Of course, there has been a recent decline, but over the course of the year, the price is still high.

Recent developments at Commit Ginza

Next, let's take a look at the latest trends of Commit Ginza (hereinafter referred to as our store) (※June: sales data)

Number of units sold: 3 Price: 4.5 million to 5 million (used to unused)

"It's cheap" "It's worth buying" ... "It will probably get even cheaper in the future" "It will still go down" ...

There are probably a lot of different opinions, but as someone who actually works here, my impression is that this price range is

I think now is the time to buy .

The reason is that, from inquiries and actual customer service, I feel that it is on the borderline of the price range for people who want to purchase it. Incidentally, as soon as it falls below 5 million yen, it shows active movement, and I think that this can be said to be the real bottom price (current price). (It depends on the condition and year.)

This month we are also selling two "Ref. 4500V/110A-B483" watches with black dials, but we feel that the borderline price for these is under 4 million yen.

Future Trends

To conclude, I expect that the market price range mentioned above will continue for a while .

Judging from the number of watches on the market and the market price of the entire watch industry, it seems that a sudden rise in prices will not occur anytime soon. Of course, luxury watches are not something to be seen only as an investment, but many people who are accustomed to such things are taking this opportunity to purchase one.

By the way, Vacheron Constantin is scheduled to raise its prices from July. After this, the prices on the secondary market will inevitably change. It is best to keep this in mind as a market fluctuation that will occur in the near future.

By the way, we currently have only one blue dial in stock. The condition is that there are some scratches and small marks due to use, but the case and bracelet are relatively solid. The warranty date is 2017. This is a matte blue dial, which is found on the dial of the early model.

The selling price is 4,488,000 yen (tax included).

The Overseas is excellent in both design and functionality. If you are interested, please check it out! The price is definitely the best price!
