Recently picked this up, and it has increased in value. Is stainless steel sports Rolex the safest store of money? I’m basically getting paid to wear a Rolex.

to be fair, you are right. This is a watch you need to be 43yo laid-back but sharp accomplished man with some silver on your head. I am just 28 so not there to wear such watch now. Now wearing pic related, flawless black dial longines flagship from 1968. The thing is, I searched the whole fucking internet, but was able to find only single other exemplar of this model, but with damaged dial and sold long ago. The thing is if you wanted the same watch as I have, you can put $10k on table and you simply wont be able to find such one.

I somehow managed to pick up my longines for €350 few months ago. I had a custom automatic notifier on new listings on chrono24 and sniped this immediatelly as it was listed. Sometimes you get fucking double lucky by finding a clueless seller who does not know what he has and being the first one to spot that bargain.
I am euro, have trusty watchmaster who will completely service such watch just for €35 so I have advantage.
I have customized automatic notifiers on new listings set on chrono24, ebay and small local (czech) auction or online-fleamarket sites and simple 3minute routine each day for checking if something new and exceptional to my taste and budget appeared. Every few months I score a hidden gem for bargain, get it get it expertly restored for €35, keep it, or flip with good profit on chrono24.
If you like the style of my longines ,this movado currently on ebay could be to your liking: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F332820955149
