Since when is Omega also doing this?
I just found this out today while browsing that you can buy online.
Maybe a first step strategy to fight grey? Or take control of the market like Amzn?
This trend is here to stay, no turning back 😳
Rolex and PP next? Since they also started to display prices.

Also IWC - just got a Pilot advert today linked to online sales page, as shown here
Prices on Pilot watches range from $3,950 to $35,200 for a gold annual calendar, and that's not cheap! That's a good-size chunk of luxury. Notice the movement in this watch is blue to match the dial - a first for IWC Cazalea ...
I know about Panerai and Cartier, not IWC or Omega...
Wow, this is really slowly kicking the middleman. More troubles for brick and mortar shops😱 Rgds Raymond
Me too, if everywhere’s like that and all prices are fix...
Makes shopping easier, no need to compare. Rgds Raymond
Hmmm, good input, mid and lower range where consumers just buy...
Not much scrutiny needed, like a necessity item? Still I like to touch, feel and wear before buying so I’ll need a boutique or store for that. Economy is so good that many people are rich and buying things just like that? Then brands better prepare for re...
Maybe I’m too conservative or I can’t see new trends but I can’t image people buying a watch for USD 50,000 or 100,000 through websites and internet if you have the opportunity to go to a shop not so far from your home.
Maybe it’s a question of age and culture too. I don’t know. But for mid range watches (around USD 5,000) I think it’s a good idea. My two cents. Best wishes Alkiro
You’re not alone....I like to be treated like...
a royalty, vip, king whatever if I’m spending that kind of $$$ on a luxury item, like watches. Rgds Raymond
JLC as well
I really doubt that there is someone who really wants to buy expensive watches online....
i think you may be surprised......
....on a forum of watch enthusiasts like this one, maybe not. People who love collecting watches...who love the history.....who love the intricacy and everything that goes into buying a watch....yes, those type of people are on this type of forum. They lo...
I’m sure they do, and the profit margin is good...
No discounts so maybe they don’t have to sell so many to hit the revenue goal? Rgds Raymond
Good point but for a nice luxury item like high end watches, I’ll rather travel...
The VAT refund pays for the trip 😊 I know that applies to people travel to Europe only. It’s changing the shape of watch shopping. Rgds Raymond
Me too, I'm lucky the boutique is "only" 200 miles each way 😂...
Good thing is there are nearer Omega ADs, if they can survive. Rgds Raymond
I love having this option
Panerai did it well. I bought straps from them and it was awesome and fast!
I asked the boutique and they started only last week...yes, the trend is here to stay.
All these fast shipping is awesome, just like Amzn prime.
