From the Editor: Texts From a Serial Watch Flipper. The Ridiculousness of Today's Watch Market.

I’ve been talking about the current situation of the watch market for a while and I’ve expressed my concerns as well as my anger about how the wrong people are getting watches allocated to ultimately just end up flipping them.

Without names like David S Williams, Kirill Yuzh, Watchbox, Adrian Taskin or Roman Sharf —just to name a few—, the watch market would’ve not boomed like it did in the last 10 to 15 years.
