I was asked today about the rising prices of Panerai watches...
Here is the interrogation: Did we do this to ourselves? By paying $30,000 for 5218-201A or $45,000. for Slytech? What about $25,000 for a 127? I exercise the mind by buying and selling these pieces at such an puffed up rate we ourselves have priced us (real Panerai collectors) direct out of the market!
Here is my rejoinder: Good act of asking. In part, yes we did but there is more to the equation. Exercise the mind of the 5218 or the "A" succession like oceanfront characteristic....they aren't workmanship it any more.....so the value continues to mount as more buyers sift for a finite furnish of magnificent watches.
But on the other palm and fingers, in my opinion, we have a coupled edge brand as far as Panerai Corp is concerned.
The age old government is when you have a price become greater, you will lose a plain percentage of clients. This will be made up in the brief term by the higher prices as you be permanent to cultivate new vocation to buy the remaining schedule.
Now you ask...Where is the BUT!!!
But your product has to have a utility or point of contrast that makes it virtue each and every price grow. How many brands have 200 years of watchmaking expertise? We see through that Panerai, with its in-house movements is new to the move business....if not these movements are made by another Richemont Troop, which they are not saying....(OK disavowal: 190=IWC...98=GP..you get my bearing)
Do we need broth, I mean Tourbillion? Well, haply you need soup to pay for Tourbillon.
Keep in spirit that if the company gets too far off from what got them to this point, then race can delay the bargain for for a year, 2 , 3, or more rather than in the not to far past when having multiple pieces from the same year seemed so legitimate.
watch. A limited run of 150 pieces, with the 60 year old Angelus 8 day movement, it is stunning and very rare. ... blowers blowersjewellers 203 ...
