With 2020 officially behind us, it’s time to turn our attention to the new year and the luxury watch trends that may be on the horizon. The watch industry is known to be slow to evolve – most modern mechanical movements are still based on technology that is hundreds of years old – but that doesn’t mean that things are always changing and advancing in the watch industry.
In the luxury replica watch industry, there is rarely a trend that is limited to one year, and many trends carry over from one year to the next. In fact, these “trends” actually reflect real-time changes in consumer and manufacturer preferences, and sometimes these trends stay the same over time – just as cheese pizza will likely always be popular. So, what are the luxury watch trends for 2021? 
Stainless steel Rolex Sports models are a staple in the world of luxury watches, and that’s not likely to change any time soon. Iconic, durable, and long-lasting, Rolex sports models are often considered “blue chip” investments in the watch industry, and the overwhelming global demand for them virtually guarantees their continued popularity through 2021 and the years beyond.
Given the long waiting lists for most models at retailers worldwide, almost all stainless steel Rolex sports watches are extremely popular and will likely remain popular in 2021. The Daytona and GMT-Master II are currently the two most popular Rolex models, but our top choice for 2021 is the Rolex Submariner line. Given that the Submariner has just been completely refreshed for 2020, many individuals will want to add one to their collection, and both the current production models and the discontinued reference models could be very popular in 2021.
Gold watches have never been flat-out unpopular; however, their popularity has fluctuated over the years, depending on the price of gold and general fashion preferences. With this in mind, much of the watch collecting world’s attention has been firmly fixed on stainless steel watches for the past decade or so, and it is only in the last few years that gold replica watches have really started to become popular again.
With the price of gold still extremely high going into 2021 and the price of stainless steel cheap watches at an all-time high, suddenly gold watches are starting to have a great deal of relative value, and acquiring one requires an additional investment. When it comes to gold luxury watches, arguably none is more iconic and instantly recognizable than the fake Rolex President, and this legendary model is poised to become one of the most popular brand collections on the pre-owned market in 2021.
