LUMINEQ reports: Watches
are experiencing a retro-heritage boom as the Insta generation has
turned its smartphone lens to classic timepieces. Remakes of classic
'50s designs are taking advantage of the retro wave, and even haute
horlogerie is getting hot with younger consumers moving into the fine
timepiece market.
This year we've also seen a shift in the old-school luxury wristwatch
world as LVMH and Montblanc joined TAG Heuer in the luxury smartwatch
category. There's plenty of room for competition here, as many luxury
watch companies have yet to join the smartwatch wagon. One reason for
this hesitancy may be due to the perceived notion that you have to
compromise on style when incorporating new technology with contemporary
designs.
