Honestly it seems like their goal is to ramp up the price point of “entry” pieces and target new customers who are aware of the brand and willing to pay without question regardless of real innovation or quality. Just to have the logo on the watch.
I don’t think they are so concerned about keeping the current collectors or what long term customers feel about recent releases. There will always be new young wealthy customers who are willing to try make a relationship and pay whatever the asking is for whatever piece they do release.
It’s disappointing but for me many of the best watches from Patek have come and gone and are long discontinued. The good news is these watches are stunning, produced in small numbers with greater traditional techniques and many are a steal by comparison.
Happily you also don’t have to deal with all the AD bs we have to tolerate these days!
