Green is the new blue




Now almost every brand introduced green into the 2021 market

JLC’s Reverso, Breitling Premier green, Zenith Safari chronograph, Rolex’s Hulk is hottest cake, Tudor green with Bronze, Oris 65 dive watch green, amongst all, I think Patel Philippe Nautilus green may be the hot topics of the year.  I have ordered all these except Nautilus as that may need $3m for one!

UK media Telegraph interviewed Patek Philippe’s CEO Thierry Stern about the 2021 Nautilus 5711-1A-014 green, his answer made me think about this gentleman’s IQ again as he is insane or he is making joke or bullshitting us? As he said even his son cannot buy such a piece. Well, he is playing trick on marketing, where by just changing the colour of a Blue dial into green with other things unchanged with limited production of say a few pieces would make the world crazy ford. Antiquorum has a preview on a piece of steel 5711-1A-104 green for auction. Who are permitted not to cut the seal at AD? Who is selling this watch into hands of a special person and who this special person has guts to auction it within the same year. I comment that is only some very special people like the name I mentioned, who else? LOL…

Rolex had introduced a few colorful OP (oyster Perpetual) in Sep 2020 Price has been going up I just take a ref 126000 36Mm as an example.  SRP is $42400. Tiffany blue keeps on increasing in the open market from $80,000 to $90,000, now is $110,000. Green was $80,000 and now is about $90,000. Red was $76,000 and now case to $91,500. As I had mentioned before Red will likely be the one who may go in par with the price of Tiffany Blue as the colour Pantone is like the China national flag. One day the Chinese will flip a few times higher on this crazy red. Of course, it is still too early to see which one is the King or queen, Tiffany Blue, green or RED?

Let’s wait for COVID-19 be gone then market will tell by itself.
