If you buying swatch omega, can wait 2 weeks later to buy below $372

Sooner or later will be like 100+ I believe. 6 months down the road when no hype, or later they release new models

Won't la, looks nice what... I rather pay 300+ for that over 100+ for dw.

I hope they can't sell and must sell for HUGE loss

$372 to purchase one. Huge loss from $372 means what?

 

[Architeck]

buy new from the store also same price

carousell watches got to be at least 20% cheaper otherwise waste gas

That time I offered Nautilus owner for 20% cheaper than list price. Then I almost kena hoot

[Stoway]

Omega/swatch got unlimited quantities of these things, quartz is very easy to manufacture.

Maybe swatch gonna keep doing this by releasing toy versions of all their group's iconic watches. It's a good way to show their stable of brands. Feels like star wars x lego.

Wait for disappointed owners selling off the watches lah… plastic watch so light they can’t get used to it one

Swatch saved the Swiss industry during the quartz crisis.

today they ended omega with a quartz version.

Next year seamaster?

They need to off load in order to justify their queuing antics.

Dun buy from these carouflippers. Make them feel that wasting hours just to spend $300+ is a real waste of time and money

Don't think so. Think they will try with their other brands like Blancpain.

Actually they can even consider brands from outside their group. Become like lego or uniqlo. Think this may be good opportunity for swatch.

Swatch is first and foremost a public listed company, accountable to public shareholders.

Hence they are more concerned with revenue, profit and loss, quarterly results, than maintaining long term brand value of their subsidiary brands.

This is also true of public listed conglomerates like Kering, LVMH, and Richemont. So I would generally avoid buying any watch brand or luxury bag brand owned by those companies, because fact is, they are driven by sales volume more than brand value. Which means they will tell their ADs to offer hefty discounts and unlimited inventory any time to capitalise on market share and revenue.

If you're wondering why your IWC/Panerai etc watch or Gucci/Balenciaga/LV/YSL etc bag loses 50% of its value the moment you walk out of the AD boutique....

It will never go below the retail price.

YES it will.... its demand and supply.

Why would someone buy at retail price or higher from Carousell when its retailing for $372? Its technically not brand new if its from Carousell, no matter how you market it. Moreover, supply will be constant, this is not simi limited edition shiat.

PWN all the scalpers deep deep with information and truth.

Those who want it, 2 weeks later, just go lowball $250.
