Have been looking around the secondary dealers to see what it is stock etc and I am always surprised by the amount of brand new recently purchased watches available. The sellers are obviously taking a big financial hit on the sale to the dealer even if at a trade in cost but why was in bought in the first place, worn for a few weeks if that and then sold on at the loss.
If I was spending thousands on a watch I would be ensuring that I really liked it and believe it would be with me for certainly more than a few months. Random example is the Audemars 37mm Royal Oak currently arrived at Watch club, purchased a couple of weeks ago with RRP of £19k with the dealer asking £18k. Knowing watch club, this watch was not bought it close to RRP so the seller has literally lost thousands in a matter of weeks. Numerous weeks old Heuer Monaco at WF with Rrp of nearly £5k and they are probably buying in at £2/2.5k.
Outwith the car market, I do not think their is another consumer goods market where you walk out of the store and literally throw thousands of pounds away, knowingly or not.
