Or, everything else should cost less. Here is my glashutte original panoreserve. I love it. I have known about GO for awhile but hadn’t really looked at it as an option. Last year I went to Watch Time NYC and they had a booth there.
First, quality was nuts. Seeing it person they’re so much nicer than what pics portray. Most impressive watches there for price I saw.
Second, everyone was so friendly and non judgmental. By comparison the guy at Breguet booth was such a pretentious douche bag it’s put me off the brand a bit.
Anyway, went and bought my own shortly after. I put a sickly mint strap that gets dirtier and more moody looking everyday, just the way I like. It’s manual wind and I like that I get to spend 15 seconds winding it everyday I wear it.
Yeah! Wtf I was looking at a reverso, not anymore
Same :(
without being able to see anyone's books or market research data my guess is they (watch companies) realize/think there's not much volume growth they can make so let's just jack up the price to improve their margins from the suckers that are still into these unnecessary toys
If we all got only what was necessary we’d all be living in a plywood shack like Ted Kaczynski
But, agreed that most abuse what is really needed. A few nice objects you really enjoy seems fine to me
Yup I won’t get a JLC first hand from the boutique for sure. Not even first hand from an AD at 20% off I think either.
