New releases – Venezianico Bucintoro 1976

 
The brand pays tribute to the legend of the Concorde with a chronograph limited to 100 pieces, housing a hand-restored Lemania 1873 caliber. Its restauration involved rebuilding from scratch the upper bridge, which was missing in several retrieved movements. The original 1970s decorations were reproduced using traditional finishing and inking techniques. The titanium plate set on the case side was cut from an original Concorde engine blade, and supplied by Concorde Collectables. The 42 mm 316L steel case features a 1.6 mm-thick domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating.

A report on the secondary market


ENGLISH (scorri verso il basso per il testo italiano)
The EveryWatch platform released its Secondary Market Movements Report — Year 2025, a full-scale analysis of global watch-market behavior built on transaction-level data across brands, dealers, auctions, and regions. The report is based on data from 1,100 Watch Dealers and Marketplaces and 500 Auction Houses Globally.
Global secondary-market sales reached $16.73 billion in 2025, representing 36.4% year-on-year growth. Dealer-led pre-owned transactions accounted for $15.65 billion, while auctions contributed $1.09 billion, confirming that most market expansion occurred within the broader dealer ecosystem rather than the trophy-driven auction segment.
Rolex (5 models in the top 10 table, see infographic below), Patek Philippe (3 models), and Audemars Piguet (2 models) further concentrated value at the top. Independent makers delivered the strongest percentage growth, led by F.P. Journe. Rolex Certified Pre-Owned expanded more than 200% Year-on-Year.
According to the report's conclusions, the secondary market didn’t simply grow—it became the mechanism through which pricing credibility is established.

La piattaforma EveryWatch ha pubblicato il Secondary Market Movements Report — Year 2025, un’analisi su larga scala del comportamento del mercato globale degli orologi, basata su dati a livello di singola transazione che coprono marchi, rivenditori, aste e regioni. Il rapporto si basa sui dati di 1.100 rivenditori e mercati di orologi e 500 Case d’asta a livello globale.

Nel 2025 le vendite globali del mercato secondario hanno raggiunto 16,73 miliardi di dollari, con una crescita anno su anno del 36,4%. Le transazioni di orologi pre-owned guidate dai dealer hanno rappresentato 15,65 miliardi di dollari, mentre le aste hanno contribuito con 1,09 miliardi di dollari, confermando che la maggior parte dell’espansione del mercato si è verificata all’interno dell’ecosistema dei rivenditori piuttosto che nel segmento delle aste “trophy-driven”.

Rolex (5 modelli nella top 10, vedi infografica sopra), Patek Philippe (3 modelli) e Audemars Piguet (2 modelli) hanno ulteriormente concentrato il valore ai vertici del mercato. I marchi indipendenti hanno registrato la crescita percentuale più forte, guidati da F.P. Journe. Il programma Rolex Certified Pre-Owned è cresciuto di oltre il 200% anno su anno.

Secondo le conclusioni del rapporto, il mercato secondario non si è semplicemente espanso: è diventato il meccanismo attraverso cui si stabilisce la credibilità dei prezzi.
