Let me see if I understand this: You're surprised there are no watches in the cases the day after Christmas? Shocking!!!

They had about a dozen women’s models and that was it.

I asked the sales clerk how the season was going and she said its been hard because they have had very little inventory. It’s the prime selling season and their cupboards are bare!

Look at the displays, empty.



It’s amazing to watch this process. The AD’s are getting a fair amount of watches to sell it’s just that they never make it to the case and sell immediately. Then the individual that buys it immediately flips it to a Grey dealer and then it sits in their case on display. So instead of fully stocked AD’s we have fully stocked Grey dealers. At 49 years old I’ve never seen an economy this good and I remember the 80s well.

I was just there a few days ago. Depressing and I asked the sales lady about SS models. She said everyone is asking she was rather bumbed they had such limited stock.
