Nikkei Asia

A fragmented ecosystem, market asymmetry, and a favorable yen create consistent opportunities to source sought-after watches that remain largely untapped.

  • One of the largest secondary watch markets globally

  • Deep supply across all price segments, including highly sought-after vintage to modern

  • Exceptionally well-maintained watches due to strong ownership culture

  • Favorable yen creates pricing advantages for international buyers

  • Fragmented market with pricing inefficiencies and arbitrage opportunities
