One Year Of Watch Blogging: The First Anniversary Of aBlogtoRead.com
I'm not going to get all mushy or dramatic. It has been a year since I started aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer and it has really come a long way. When the site began, I had little idea that it would be solely a blog about watches. Could I really handle writing about watches all the time? Well the answer to that question is pretty self evident. At first, I really thought that watches would merely be a regular, albeit shared category, along with other things that I know about. While I do occasionally remark on legal or business items, and Internet marketing, my passion has obviously laid with those little time telling machines that I wish were more ubiquitous.Over the past year the look of the blog has developed, and so have my contacts in, and knowledge about the watch world. I have a lot of plans in the works to further improve the site, and your ideas are more than welcome. Among those things that I have learned, not all are pleasant.

OT: Tis the season....
Hi everyone, this post is inspired by a post I made on another watch forum that someone titled "What Christmas Gift are you giving to yourself". Let me give a little preface before I tell the story. I've always been a bit of a selfish person and have never really "given" very much as far as other people go. I don't come from a wealthy family but we have always had all we need and most of the time more than we need. I'm not sure what sparked this today but I believe I've had a change of heart (John you can relate to a bit of divine inspiration based on your profile). Anyway, let me also say that there is nothing wrong with giving nice things to yourself or your family. Nothing wrong with that at all. However, this year is going to be a little different for the Flanagan family. Here is my post from the other forum. I thought I'd share it here since this is such a considerate group of watch enthusiasts. The point of this is not self glorification in any way. I just thought maybe it would

Audemars Strategy
As many others, I have been recently on a fruitless search for a 15202. Local ADs are not getting any, boutiques are not adding names to waitlists and all while trying to push gold models to kickstart the relationship, etc. You know the drill. Recently, I came across this interview to Audemars' CEO in SIHH 2018 which outlays the Company's mid-term strategy, it is very interesting (you might have seen it already):- Tighter control of the distribution channel: no Ads, boutique only sales. - E-commerce selectively starting by the end of 2018.- New line of watches in 2019, to be produced at the expense of Royal Oaks.- Fixed production volume of 40,000 watches both in 2018 and 2019.- 2020, new growth phase, slight increase of production.- Plans to enter the certified preowned market.So, obviously, the situation with the classic jumbo is not expected to change at all neither this year, or next. But, would you foresee that finally in 2020 you will be able to walk into a Boutique and place you
