What an excellent sales strategy! Put nothing in the cases, offer nothing to potential buyers when they walk into the gallery, pay the rent, pay utilities, pay employees and allow the safes in the back to fill up to bursting.
I'm only surprised more businesses aren't following this model. |

I work around tech (I-banking) and I probably see more Aquanauts at my tech clients than Subs. For me, I delineate sports and dress by two main criterion. 1) Can I use it to swim and run without worry and 2) Do I actually I think that scratched and wear give it character and make the look more desirable.

As for awesome discontinued cars, MB SLS and Gullwing, BMW Z8 come to mind. Freakishly awesome and short lived. That's why you cannot dilute their iconic status. Same with Nautilus. It is gone but won't be forgotten and lads will learn to appreciate new models.

Nope. They haven’t released anything interesting in steel on a strap yet. Give us a 5172A to get the ball rolling.
Also there will be another 3 hand nautilus in steel. I will take all bets to the contrary.

Also does Thierry need to convince the young and affluent or just convince the secondary dealers? Lol I’m half joking half not. If all the dealers decided to hoard PCC like they do sports pieces the market would dry up in a hurry. There’s not that many relative to the stuff they all bid up.

I don’t think TS has steered anyone away from the nautilus. It’s popularity has just driven people to look elsewhere in the catalog since most people will not be able to get one. It’s not like he has significantly decreased supply. And the nautilus line is still there . He’s also never said the three-hander is going away. Saying the 5711 is discontinued is like saying the 116610 was discontinued. It will be replaced by an updated model like the SubC. PP, like Rolex, plays the game well.
