Expensive Microbrands
Travelling with watches
Recent Comments
That's one way of seeing it. But in comparison with at least some other watches in regards to materials and quality, they aren't.
That sadly, many of the big brands offer pretty bad deals if you really think about it.
I don't know if you've ever held a "regular" Patek for example, but the finishing really isn't that great tbh, at least not for the price.
In general, I find it shocking how much in even unbelievably expensive watches is made by machines.
Don't get me wrong, I still love watches and I still like Pateks, but what they offer is just not that great. Still, the ones beeing able to afford these watches probably don't have to care...
Which doesn't make it less overpriced... :)
Just because the retail is even higher doesn't mean that the retail itself is justified.
It's indeed not about the brand beeing a microband, more about in what buying a watch from a microbrand differs from buying one from a regular brand. And with expensive microbrands, the "problems" comming with the brand beeing so small usually hit harder: for example, buying a 200$ watch without beeing able to try it on might be something at least some watchguys will do, but a with watch in the thousands (or even a custom) it's a whole other story
