There’s a fundamental difference between advising caution versus not buying.
If every potential customer of the brand took that approach, what exactly do you think will happen?
What exactly are you waiting on, and for how long before the green light is given?

Bear in mind that Marco was generally unhappy since 2013, it took him long enough to move out.

Moreover, since that time, no-one questioned Lang & Heyne’s viability, with the same 50-60 watches made each year.

If Jens can work for GUB, AL&S (especially on the Zeitwerk), and MG, then I think it’s fair to say that he has a fair idea of what he’s doing.
I don’t see any grounds for the pessimism being displayed.
