Indonesia's $6B Luxury Watch Market: Flecto.id Redefines Buying and Selling of These Coveted Collectibles

Recently, the value of luxury watches in Asia has skyrocketed and has outperformed stocks and crypto gains. For example, Rolex Submariner, the iconic watch that is well-known among watch enthusiasts, experienced a price increase of more than 50% above its official retail price in 2020 and 2021. This increase in demand is driven due to the availability of online literature about horology and also from investors looking to purchase watches as an investment asset with clear utility.

"We are thrilled to introduce Flecto as the premier luxury watch online marketplace in Indonesia," said Gary Lilardi, CEO and Co-Founder of Flecto.
