The Santos name is old, but for most of its existence it was the Santos-Dumont. It became the Santos in steel with the bracelet in the late 70s to capitalize on the Royal Oak/Nautilus trend.

In that respect, it's a tremendous cope. Moving to a blue dial only makes it worse.

[Anonymous No.17096425]

Cartier has changed the design of the Santos to follow trends. I get what the anon you're quoting is saying, but price-wise the Santos is more a competitor of the Datejust (ie classy sports watch for <$10k.)

yeah, i dont really think of it as a RO competitor. its certainly not in the same league.
as a side not, i tried on my buddies blue dial RO a few years ago, and while it does look good, i wasnt blown away. and, coming from a rolex oyster bracelet, i thought the RO was very uncomfortable. the bracelet is super stiff and almost bangle like - whereas the oyster bracelet is far more comfortable.

Your experience with the RO is definitely not unique. It's a watch that looks great in photos but is actually quite uncomfortable for a lot of wearers, in addition to the fact that it wears much larger than its specs suggest. It's a hype piece. It was, for its time, a legitimate earthquake in the watch world, but the design also shows its age badly.

Comparing it to the Oyster is not fair, though, lol. That's just about the most comfortable bracelet out there after the Jubilee.

If it's more edgy/modern, something like a Bvlgari Octo Finissimo. If it's more old-style, like Corso, something like an older JLC Master Calendar, pre-40mm. If it's a little more upscale, Cartier Pasha in gold.

He's not. You can't take a Western read on it. Russians expect their leaders to be richly appointed. Culturally, it demonstrates that they know what they're doing. By contrast, in America, leaders are expected to look more like a middle- or working-class person, even if they are quite wealthy.

Late stage cancer.

I'm downsizing and enjoying a tidy G-Shock collection while looking forward to the anniversary models. I'm proud of myself for resisting buying some watches. Even when I enjoy seeing the new models I satisfied with my collection and feel no need to buy anything else. I also stopped lusting after Pateks so I don't feel like my collection has a big finish anymore. I like where I am now. My price point kept creeping higher so I thought I would eventually end up with an $8k or $20k watch but I realized I would never go over $2k.

I'm pretty happy with where I'm at right now honestly. Seiko 5 sports for when I want something comfy and automatic, Oceanus for practical, hassle-free daily wear, a CasiOak as a stylish beater and an Orient dress watch if I ever need it.

So they are getting fed new watches from ADs and then giving them kickbacks. How is this allowed?

[Anonymous No.17098002]

>>17097995
They’re not allowed to on paper, it’s just that Rolex has overextended themselves by having far too many ADs and it’s impossible to monitor them. You have to monumentally fuck up to get noticed by Rolex corporate.

It's not allowed but it's impossible to police.

If I'm a gray market dealer I have employees who each have all sorts of relatives and I can buy watches from ADs in their names.

It's not impossible to police. It's actually easy. Rolex just needs to create a warranty database and the watch MUST be entered in on initial purchase. If Rolex sees that some dogshit AD just sold 4 OPs that all got flipped within 1 month, revoke their agreement.

NEW THREAD WHEN?

>>17098022
The real question is whether Rolex even cares to put a stop to it. I think the answer is no, given that the issue has continued for like 5 years at this point. They insist on continuing to produce the watches that aren't in demand in the same numbers and refuse to significantly boost the production of in-demand watches. ADs and Rolex benefit because suckers will buy the watches no one wants to hopefully get a watch they do want.

Given their absurd financials, it's a choice at this point to not make the watches people want. That's why you are a fucking cuck if you play the AD game.

[Anonymous No.17098038]

>>17098022
Easier said than done. Rolex still needs ADs to sell their watches unless they want to go to a boutique-only model. ADs who move tons of inventory do get to tell Rolex what's up.

[Anonymous No.17098040]

>>17098038
All they would have to do is add a clause in the AD agreement saying the AD must register the watch into the Rolex warranty database when they sell it. Now whether Rolex actually wants ADs to stop their bullshit is another question entirely.

>Given their absurd financials, it's a choice at this point to not make the watches people want.
It's not that simple.
1. to expand production, they need to build a new facility. That takes a lot of time. Real Estate in Geneva isn't exactly cheap.
2. to make more Daytonas and GMTs, they need to shift production away from DJs, which actually are, by far and away, their most popular model. (The legions of middle managers who buy Rolexes aren't on watch forums.)

[Anonymous No.17098047]

>>17098040
Still easier said than done. Rolex does not want to build and maintain boutiques. The ADs want freedom to make money.
Rolex tolerates this for now and can write it off as popularity + covid supply chain blah blah blah.
Maybe their tune will change in a couple years, but then, maybe the market will be different in a couple years.

Rolex is almost done expanding their factory. They expect to produce 25% more movements from it. Goes online early 2023. You can see the construction.

First you have to build the facility.
Then you have to get all the equipment. That takes more time. That equipment doesn't come out of a catalog, it's all custom.
Then you have to hire and train a new workforce to staff the building.

All this screeching about Rolex is pointless anyway. Their values are falling and will continue to fall until most of the watches are below the MSRP, then the grey market and shady dealers will implode when they are left with tons of shit no one wants.

[Anonymous No.17098088]

my predictions for the future of Rolex:
they will bump the production numbers up slightly
they will make the hands in-house or acquire the guys that make them atm (Feidler iirc)
they will raise prices significantly over the next few years to get a larger piece of the pie instead of letting grey market dealers get it all.
they'll try to move further upmarket by offering more and more models in precious metals (see for example the current Explorer). Just like Patek Philippe is trying not to be the Steel Nautilus company.

It's not redundant, it's contradictory. 9F is quartz, 9R is spring drive. Spring drive is a third way between quartz and mechanical. It's a completely different mechanism than any other quartz mechanism.
