Dr. N.
We have written a lot, so far, about watches and their surroundings. In this somewhat special article, we would like to talk about us, why we are here, who we are. To tell you why Chronosect exists, in short, rather than any other watch site with a blog.
What is Chronosect and why this blog
Chronosect is an idea born from an all-Italian community of traders and luxury watch enthusiasts. It is an idea that aims to bring together the people who make the Italian watch market function, which is still a global reference. The basic idea of Chronosect is simple: to unite the customer with the seller, putting them in contact without intermediation. The reason why we wish to do this is that too often, in the online trade of watches, listing sites carve out the role of intermediaries, which invariably makes the relationship between seller and customer difficult. We at Chronosect, before being authors or site creators, we are enthusiasts and traders. We know what it means to want a watch, hear the opinions of friends and relatives, talk to the dealer, be afraid of being burned, evaluate how much the watch may be worth in the future... In short, we appreciate watches and the people who appreciate them.
This blog exists to give voice to the passion for watchmaking. We write articles about watches that people are interested in, of course, because it is a commercial site. But we also want to give space to pure passion, the one that doesn't look at the brand or the price tag but only at the technical, aesthetic and why not, emotional pleasure of the watch.
Customers, traders and us
Other sites in the sector have decided to obscure the traders' logos. They also choose to apply commissions on the sale, to act as intermediaries between customer and seller, in short to create a barrier through which they can be the sole dominus of the sale of the watch. The natural outcome of this process is the transformation of the online watch market into a monopoly in which both customers and sellers are under the thumb of a single centralized controller, which makes the purchasing experience increasingly similar to a bureaucratic practice, emptied of its fundamental value. , even human, inherent in the seller-customer relationship.
We are not, and will never be, intermediaries. We believe that the fundamental value in the purchase and sale of a watch or jewel is the relationship between customer and salesperson. We don't ask, and we won't ask May, sales commissions.
The founding value of Chronosect is the relationship between seller and customer. Our platform exists to guarantee all players in the luxury market to talk to each other, without barriers, without commissions, without intermediaries: our goal is to allow those who work in luxury to get to know each other and cooperate.
