Dear DBurn,
Thank-you for posting this on this forum. In regards to your comment that Kobold’s claim to being anti-establishment is absurd, I can only comment as follows:
No other luxury goods company has consistently taken the road less travelled in terms of marketing, sales, product development, and branding. No other luxury goods company has been so aggressive in its efforts to alienate run-of-the-mill, vanilla-sex-type prospects in an effort to attract individualists who seek products that underscore their own personality.
Just because a Kobold watch can cost as much as a new car does not imply that it cannot also stand for anti-establishment.
Best wishes,
Mike
