200k would have bought her a very good Patek (possibly a custom one), which would have value retention much better than the Hublot (tourbillon or not). Maybe the Hublot would have good value over the next few years as it rotates in fashion, but not one which transcends generations. Just my humble 2cts on 200k watches.

Guess you are a true watch connoisseur.
Any advise for someone who wish to buy watches that can leave for legacy?

Does Patek has higher retention value as in "transcends generations" than other brands? Must they be of value >$100k before its value retention is there?

F.I.Y
PP complication (split sec chrono) watches start from 300k retail price and waiting list for at least a year. If u add in the moonphrase and tourbillion and min repeater, it will cost close to a million and longer waiting list.
Usually u need to pay a premium to get it from third party.
(update: normal chronograph starts from 90k)
