Why keep it BNIB?! If u buy it, u must wear it! If u wanna buy it for investment, I rather u put the money elsewhere on stocks or shares or property? lol..
For me, when I buy watches, firstly it has to be one that I like first and that I will wear.
Only after this have been considered, then I will look into the so called "investment" part.
My opinion is Rolex is meant to be worn, to enjoy the weight on the wrist, to enjoy checking the time every now n then, to feel the pride of wearing one, n to show off. But if you have too many Rolex to wear,then maybe leaving some BNIB to resell is not too bad an idea.
unless you can get at real dealers prices, dont waste your time.
otherwise everyone would already hv more than a few BNIB in the safe already.
but what it does is give a nice feeling when you open it up to hv a look several years later.
however, a timepiece only earns its true value and worth on the wrist of a wearer, marking every single milestone.
It shld appreciate ~6% yearly & no promise that it'll be a discontinued model, but the older non-ceramic model 16610LV had, so best to keep yours in a good condition.

Given a choice between 16610lv and 116610lv, I'll take the latter anytime.Though the former have already been discontinued, I still like the green dial better.
Thanks a lot for the feedback.
Was offered the hulk in Hk for a pretty good price, didn't buy it in the end.
Bought a 16600 SD instead, which I love and wear quite often
