·I gotta be honest. I think these actually look worse than I expected, especially the 'not lume dial' dial one.
Interesting to see the early eBay listings on the Kith / Heuer Formula 1 watches -- most of the watches are listed with the BuyItNow in the $2500 to $3500 range, with the boxed sets priced at around $30,000. Of course, we have no idea at what prices the watches will actually change hands, but these are some strong numbers.
Boom. That's everything right there.
- How it came about originally.
- It's viewed as THE starter watch of all starter watches.
- Timeline coincides with Formula 1 renewed interest.
- Colors in general are hot right now (my add).
- Relaunch the Formula1 in its original form now but with a twist and set the tone for future revamp.
- Brand the limited edition KITH and it then becomes a distinct design bridge from what came before in the 80-90s --> to the what is coming next in the mid to late 2020s.
So lets say TAG had priced it at £500. What would people say?
Those entry level F1s at £1200 look way over priced. There was no win here for TAG with the watch community. I wonder if that's why they did this Kith thing, because Kith fans wouldn't know what the price should be in the first place and they are happy to spend £100 on a T shirt.
This is why I think this is a massive mistake. All that positive noise about the glassbox is gonna get crushed by a new wave of TAG bashing...
Congrats, @Jeff Stein. If I recall correctly, you may be the first on the forum?
