I love wearing my VCs. Having leather, steel and rubber bands makes it easy to change bands/straps without tools. Makes it feel like getting 3 watches for the price of one!

[@derosa1989]

The data slide with the production numbers you showed appears to be from 2021. The Morgan Stanley report for 2023 (the most recent one). had VC at 35,000 AP at 51,000 and PP at 70,000. VC has increased production from 23k to 35k in 3 years, almost exactly 50% increase in units. Probably too many. But my main take away is that i don't understand why any watch that isn't rare or limited edition would ever sell for more than MSRP of a new one from an authorized dealer. The whole luxury market is wacky.

[@Crypto_Circus]

If we being real they need to drop prices by 30-40%, competition is really high below and above it's price points. You can get a couple Tudors or many other brands for some of the prices they sell the basic watches.

[@brrrrr9999]

Interesting video. This is how the watch industry should be. Watches aren't supposed to be investments, and it's a disappointment that that's what watches have become. I can't wait until AP and Patek meet Vacheron in selling broadly at a discount and the hype and crypto bros all move onto something else.

[@mywatchjourney6579]

I have some thoughts on this and will do a market analysis follow up.

[@MegaThucydides]

Vacheron prices are close to what these watches should sell at (e.g. if you take prices from the 60s and 70s and inflation-adjust to today). Patek and Audemars are grossly inflated, hence making today's buyers true suckers

[@WestCoastAce27]

Great analysis. One thing on the last chart that jumped out at me - the 41mm Overseas is fine but the 37s aren’t - so the ‘smaller watches’ guys are just a very vocal minority. 39-42 is still the sweet spot. I would have liked to see a graph of their price increases over the last 5-6 yrs. Like IWC, GP, VC may have overdone the increases.

[@jswede1]

Graphs are at watchcharts

[@mywatchjourney6579]

My 6 1/2 inch wrist agrees with you. As long as the lug to lug is 47 or less, I'm good.

[@WestCoastAce27]

@@mywatchjourney6579 exactly! And so many brands don’t put that, most important, metric on their websites.

[@WestCoastAce27]

@@mywatchjourney6579 mine is 6.75 and thought the 50.5mm would be too much. But the lugs have some curvature and coupled with the very solid oyster bracelet, it fits fine. Glad I stopped in the boutique and realized that. I’d recommend you stop in and try one on - never know. And it’s such an amazing piece to see up close even if it’s not going to work. Rolex gets some stick for being ‘boring’ - no one can honestly call the Skydweller boring.

[@jnox8547]

IMO, VC made the best blue SS watch on the market. Everyone wanted it and prices still reflect that. Unfortunately, like other watch makers, they only offered a few and to select customers. So people settled for the black or silver but it just wasn't THAT blue one...then they tried to sell them preowned and STILL everyone wanted the blue and prices dropped...big time. All the brands as you show in your video are facing adjustments but many can't and won't part with 25K for a SS watch which puts VC in a tough position. Flippers, "investors" and grey market dealers are also partly to blame boosting prices to ridiculous prices. We'll have to see. Great video, thanks.

[@lucamatri1392]

The Brown one is even better! :))))

[@nikolastojanov8749]

To me this just shows the reality of the social media dominated world. The only models with high demand are the ones which can be flexed on social media. Without Overseas collection, VC would be closer in the market to Breguet and Blancpain(both of which have no flex pieces) then to AP and Patek

[@brrrrr9999]

When did membership in the holy trinity become decided by hype and marketing rather than the sheer quality of the watch? If it was just the former, we should just swap Vacheron with Richard Mille.

[@thegabal1484]

Yes, because VC doesn’t have a 222, a cornes de Vaches, a 1921, ultra thin perpetual calendars, not to mention discontinued models like the Mercator and Saltarello. Now tell me one iconic model from Bréguet or Blancpain that can rival these…

[@Leo-gh7nz]

​@@thegabal1484 The guy above was weird for mentioning Blancpain (really a one-trick pony with the FF), but Breguet is a different animal. Classique, Tradition, Type XX, Marine. They have legit lines and go toe to toe with VC.

[@mywatchjourney6579]

Very true, similar to my analysis of Rolex as a fashion brand. It's all jewelry and social flexing now.

[@mywatchjourney6579]

I think they are tragically undervalued in the market. But it's like he said, most people don't know them so no social flex value. The upside is prices are more reasonable for collectors. (Not that I could afford them lol)

[@ceowils]

I was looking at Pateks years ago. Rappers made it fashionable and prices went crazy. Same with AP. As Hip-Hop is one of the top marketing drivers. Once rappers promote Vach the market will go crazy. I think it will happen this year. So I think this is the next wave.

[@DA_Karas]

Very interesting analysis. I appreciate you do your own work to form your opinions unlike most other watch channels. I would only add that I actually think it's normal to see the simpler models discounted less than the ones with expensive complications. They are easier to sell because they appeal to a broader customer base; this isn't exclusively a Vacheron problem.

[@mywatchjourney6579]

Yeah, I'm not here to say that my opinions are facts. And you're right. My analysis shows that complications are overall heavily discounted in the secondary market.

[@Stona999]

The staggering cost of servicing a perpetual calendar or tourbillion watch are also a deterrent. Several thousand dollars on the low end

[@mywatchjourney6579]

Bingo! That was my thought as well. It's nice to think of the romance of owning a complication; but people are being realistic about the maintenance cost.

[@Giannis020]

Lucky to get a VC overseas in about two weeks as my first purchase from a Boutique. Great experience and better watch.

Congrats! I recently tried a 37MM overseas. My local watchmaker was trying to get me to buy. It did feel great for my wrist.

[@jchong416]

VC tank in the secondary market in general as they aren't independent. They are perceived as less exclusive.

[@mywatchjourney6579]

But their production is less than others. It does surprise a bit.

[@jchong416]

@@mywatchjourney6579the reality is the watch game is about snobbery, marketing and market perception. That's why Rolex, Richard mille and AP sit ahead of high horology watch maisons like breguet, a lange sohne and a plethora of lesser known independents. It's cyclical and nobody stays on top forever except Rolex. Just look at franck Muller, panerai, hublot and Roger dubois. They all had their time in the sun which had now set

[@DecemberNames]

i ll tell you a personal story which i think reflects why noone is buying VC: during covid in Shanghai, I went to maybe 7 different Rolex ADs to get Explorer 2 white dial. Put my name on the list. added AD contacts to my social media. Received not a single call in two years. HOWEVER in the last few months, I see the same ADs post Explorer 2 white dial on sale, and now that **IS** available, I do not want it. Moral of the story from my end, people only want to buy what they cannot have, which essentially follows the hype. If VC ever gets the hype machine, they will be in the same umbrella as PP/AP. PS: It is different story why they never called me but posted these watches on sale - speaks volumes about these so called wait lists hehe. True story, I promise.

[@WestCoastAce27]

At least in China. Was on the Rolex waitlist here in SoCal, finally got the call 2 weeks ago - got an amazing Skydweller.

[@mywatchjourney6579]

Yeah, first time I visited a Rolex AD, there was a line. But the VC boutique was almost empty. Only one guy sitting and trying on a watch. It was actually kinda sad because their watches are high finish.

[@estradaarmory]

Great video, and I agree, watches should not be investments. However,......... when precious metals are being used, I think customers can expect at least some level of value retention, but it appears that only a handful of watches, for whatever reason, truly hold their value, and an even smaller percentage will go up.

[@mywatchjourney6579]

I think the Swiss brands got a bit ahead of themselves due to the pandemic surge. Both PP and Rolex pushing so hard into precious metals will hurt them in the short term.

Retention value numbers here seem confusing. I assume this means over list (or under in the case of VC) and not value retention as stated which to me implies a PP is worth only 27% of its cost which is ridiculous. IMO.

[@beerkegaard]

I think VC not being independent hurts it from being collected by super collectors the way AP and Patek and Rolex are

[@chis2948]

This is the problem. Richemont is a publicly traded company and needs to make a measurable profit. To do that, they are going to absolutely do their best to meet demand and perhaps overshoot that demand. They never will have the luxury that the big 3 have to where they are profitable and can maintain the aura of luxury and/or exclusivity. VC will never have this. Additionally, I don’t think it’s about looking as watches as “investments”. Let’s be honest. For 99.5% of the public, $30k+ to drop on a watch is truly a luxury. I don’t think many people go into this purchasing decision and think they will make money, but they want to preserve the value of the purchase as best they can. The “middle ground” of the watch market is a dead zone and will always lose 40 to 75% of the value, and that’s exactly where VC is. They make LOVELY watches but you either have to be rich enough not to care about the value (and the rich want PP, AP, Rolex, and RM), or you nab great deals on the secondary market. Nobody that both understands and has to manage their finances is going to buy VC at retail. It’s an absolutely dumb thing to do. And that’s just a fact.

It's sad that watches that look good cost over 1k+. MAMACOO watches are REALLY well made, and it just shows how a brand name on a watch can make its price 10x higher. I understand that if you look under a microscope, you'll find the difference, but just how many of you really inspect a watch at that level when you see someone with a watch?
