:-D

I heard Archibald Chesterfield Luxury the Third is preparing a counter-bid, apparently he saw his missing watches in the CPO section and wants them back!

In wonder if this pushes Richemont to make a move on WoS. I can’t see them keeping their brands at Bucherer moving forward. I know that there are already exclusions at Bucherer when an Omega boutique (and possibly Breitling) is nearby.

I wouldn't be surprised, but really it's Swatch group that should be more worried and needs to take out WoS.

I've had no less than 6 offers 40% over yours. You are a joke. Go back to your shanty.

Someone is in their feelings! It’s just a watch guy, relax and sell it already. I feel bad for your wife.

Do you need another tissue?

Personally, i hope not judging from Richemont's recent years of operation. They seem to be driving retail prices overly skyward, lowering features/decoration, plus have been hearing about loooooooooong service times (with high costs). A management shakeup and direction change would be the first move for Richemont, then we'll see how things go from there after a handful of years.

To be fair, Richemont is attempting to achieve the maximum highest pricing possible while seemingly minimizing costs as much as possible. Great for short-term profit margins, yet bad for a truly long-term business plan imho. Rolex would be a far more benevolent caretaker for WoS imho.

I think they begrudgingly did it to help out the old geezer who owns Bucherer. I do not think Rolex has any interest in dealing with the public.

And, i will be interested to see if rolex really does have my purchase history.

l&b?

Are you still waiting for a call back from Hodinkee?
