Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Kingsman Knife: A Lame Strategy?

Key Points from the Discussion

• The crown's unusual position, pointing into the strap, is a distinctive design element that some collectors find peculiar.
• A key factor in the watch's market performance might be its status as a 'movie watch with no movie,' as the film's release was delayed, disrupting the intended marketing synergy.
• JLC's strategy for the Kingsman Knife was criticized for being a 'limited production not edition' without strong movie involvement, further complicated by a partnership with Mr Porter.
• Some contributors believe the watch's price point is not justifiable, predicting a potential re-release as a non-limited edition at a lower price in the future.
• Despite its availability, JLC actively promoted the watch through various channels, including extensive email campaigns.
