Not sure I agree about this. PP has always been about grand complications up till 2016/2017 and most of them (including Nautilus/Aquanaut) traded below MSRP except for the rarer LE stuff.
Today, I think the hype is coming down a bit. In the end I think the sports line will always be popular but it will be more balanced.
If you own a Naut/Aquanaut, its a great watch but after a while it becomes boring. The Perpetual Calendar Chronos and chronographs tend to do well in the long term from a valuation standpoint (after discontinuation).
