      I’m not sure good guys is the term. They made a business decision to hold firm on their prices. Which is quite frankly too high. Whoever made the decision hurt the standing of their brand. It was a bad call.

      Rolex did it to themselves. See this case of watches? You can't buy any of them. Buy 30k in jewelry you don't want and we might sell you one.
      Or, walk in and buy it today. You tell me who ruined it...

  • @ejp75

    Franck Muller has never been super duper quiet. Muller has created some of the most iconic complicated watches, starting from when he graduated watchmaker school in Switzerland. Muller watches are one of a kind complications, all hand made. He gave the real reason he doesn’t carry Muller, they fought him and Grey market dealers legally and he gave up, so he doesn’t try to buy/sell Franck Muller watches. Any Muller is better than the mass produced Rolex junk he sells. He sells Rolex only because most people who buy Rolex are fooled by the brand name. They think Rolex are the best watches when in fact they aren’t. Real watch aficionados know Rolex are mass produced just like Timex, but of better parts and more hype to raise the prices. But are they really worth the current prices? NO

    They failed to realize that a strong secondary market is actually good for manufacturers. If the secondary market has such a high demand, then it doesn’t really matter what the manufacturers put out or at what price, it will instantly sell out and hit the secondary market.
    Look at Nike for example. Hardly matters what new shoe is coming out, it’s basically always sold out because people want to resell the shoes.
    In cases like Nike it’s horrible for the consumers because they are forced to pay outrageous prices for shoes they would’ve been able to buy in stores normally.
    In cases like Rolex it’s a little different. Yes consumers have to pay more on the secondary market, but these are watches they never would have to opportunity to purchase at retail (or at all) in the first place.
