Sometimes it makes no sense...

How can certain prices be justified? How can a Seiko Spring Drive Moon Phase be more expensive than a Rolex Submariner or a Zenith Defy Xtreme Open more expensive than an OffShore Polaris? Regardless of technical excellence, that I am sure marketing directors in any of the manufactures can dispute and argument the final prices of their products. Flicking through watch magazines lately I can help but wonder if the world has gone mad.



The market has no heart and understands no mercy. It is very human to attach yourself to material objects (unless you are a communist) and value them well above what they really are worth. How nasty was your surprise last time you had your beloved car valued at a dealer when you where about to purchase a new vehicle? Ouch! Truth hurts, especially once you get sick of that Zenith Defy Open (yes, the one that cost you around 20k after discount). Bad move in the first place...

A Seiko springdrive costs more than a Rolex because it's better, you prat. A Rolex is just a lump of ugly and expensive metal at the best of times.
