Christmas 2022 vs Christmas 2023 or how the watch market has changed.

 
 By: nafetS : December 25th, 2023-15:39
Before Christmas 2022 I didn‘t get any call from watch dealers. In 2023 I got a dozen of calls from all sort of watch dealers trying to sell me watches, even if I never expressed the desire to buy those. It‘s been quite easy to resist, though. Did you hav... 

I have only one dealer…

No question things are flowing more freely.

I can only hope we see further normalization going forward. Don’t get me wrong, value retention is good. But if enough steam can be let out such that the brainless speculation ends then that’s good for all. I for one would like be able to buy any Rolex, s... 

Amen

With me you'll never have a second chance to make a first impression.

I think those are the first pictures of a ‘real’ titanium Yachtmaster I have seen.

It look great on your wrist. Was there something particular about it that you didn’t like or did it just not ‘sing’ to you? All the best, Jon

Dear Jon, it didn’t sing to me since it’s way to similar to the Sub and while I love discret appearance in a watch(the reason I like Rolex(, I think this just a bit too quiet.

I love the lightness on the wrist, felt like nothing, but it just didn’t impress me, same for the Celebration OP41, on which I couldn’t read the time at all Truth is I’m holding off for my most likely exit Rolex if it ever happens…

Thanks for your further thoughts, Zsolt.

My dearest piece, last to leave me…. ...

Now yours with the smooth bezel and the motif dial, it’s a different story! Huge love!!! Yours it’s fantastic, I would sleep with it on my wrist, if only wouldn’t be so heavy ))

Hmmmmmm!

I had purchased in 2018 and 2019 from them. Then in 2020 + 2021 they were incredibly asinine and misleading. In my business we are always focused on lifetime value of customers, not short term revenue. They were too stupid to think that way and I’ll never...
