Revenge Buying - Topic du jour of the luxury world.

The restrictions of lockdown, living a forced austere life for past 60+days or just missing out on the high of good ol’ retail therapy - ‘Revenge buying’ or rather ‘revenge spending’ is the overindulgence in retail therapy by consumers who have missed sho...  

For sure. I asked my AD yesterday how did they get on

With selling the special edition green dial 5905P 014 of 25 number during the lock down. All gone, all accounted for before. Crazy! IMO most likely due to possible long trem future values and rarity. The answer is obvious for that model. No point in wasti...

This behavior I’m sure is at an all time high currently.

Don’t do it. You know it’s not worth it.

Of all brands, Patek is probably the only one that doesn’t need to play this limited edition game, which I agree is being abused *way* too much for speculation by brands😉Here it was sensible to state a number, but only since it’s a commemorative piece. Ad... 

Oh, yes, forgot to address that part.

I do not plan on buying this watch nor any other watch due to Revenge Buying. I find the whole phrase to be something the media made up to describe surges in consumer spending. I buy watches because I see a watch that I like. I may buy more watches during... 

My experience with luxury mkt has been that nothing is really moving as in the sales volumes have declined but prices are up post lockdown on whatevers selling. [nt]

At first glance I thought this was JLC

The dial makes me think of the Memovox blue. It’s not good that I’m thinking of another brand

agree with Mr. Gatsby [nt]
