Here is a very interesting article written by Ariel Adams over at aBlogToRead.com. The article explains the recent moves in the watch industry toward consolidation of retail channels by manufacturers, why more and more major brands are dumping long time authorized dealers, and the rise of manufacturer-owned brand specific boutiques. It ios a great read and while it is intended to address this phenomenon across the entire watch industry, it might help shed some light on the new push by Seiko to open boutiques in major markets, and why over the past couple of years, some major retailers have stopped carrying the brand. Check out the article and chime in with your thoughts:
