From what I’ve seen and handled, Perrelet makes a fine watch. Like Mike said, they’re a bit of a niche brand with a “theme” running through many of their models.
Bold design themes, while often unique and interesting, tend to be a bit polarizing; so while I’d normally speak to resale values being bad for most brands, I think the Perrelets, Hublots, Clercs etc. of the world probably take a bigger than average hit.
Just a word of caution regarding the model you’re considering: it’s a very cool looking watch, but a quick search shows it to be 47mm x 15.5mm (?)....which makes it a pretty massive piece. That, combined with the bold design and gold case is gonna give it some serious wrist-presence. Just make sure that jives with your overall vibe.
On a side note, if you’re looking for some lesser-known brands with unique design cues...let us know. We may be able to introduce ya’ to a few surprising brands.
