October’s finest: Wristler Recap ‘25

Overall trends

So, as we mentioned already, October wasn’t the best month when it comes to sales, compared to the rest of 2025. We’ve seen incredible growth, and still October 2025 was better compared to 2024, but it felt a bit weird since we expected more. But, some trends we saw in October were diamonds. We’ve sold multiple watches filled with diamonds (two of them are in the personal favorites below). We also had one of the craziest stories we’ve heard so far why someone bought a watch, and this still makes us a bit emotional. Enjoy our October’s finest!

Personal favorites in October

As you may know by now, we’re diving into our personal favorites sold on Wristler within one month. In October we had some great sales, some amazing customers and even better stories. Our top 5 for October:

Rolex Submariner Date

The first one is a watch that we sell roughly every other day. So, without being arrogant or so, a Sub Date isn’t that special. How come that this one appears in our Monthly Recap? That has to do with the story on why this watch was bought. And it’s a crazy one. This customer from Spain reached out to us for a brand new, unworn Rolex Submariner Date, since that was his childhood dream. Unfortunately, he hasn’t gotten his hands on one, since he already tried it for 2 years at the local authorized dealers. He needed the watch as soon as possible, since he only has a couple of weeks left to live, and he wanted to enjoy his last weeks wearing his absolute childhood dream. It still makes me emotional while writing this, and only hoping that he’s still able to read this. Take care, Mr V.

RBR Lady Datejust

The second personal favorite is an amazing RBR Lady-Datejust. RBR means some serious diamonds (factory set) and the same goes for this Lady-Datejust. This one features diamonds on the bezel, hour markers and a special hour marker at 9 o’clock, again filled with diamonds. You won’t see this configuration very often, so that’s why this one is so special.

Breitling Top Time Deus

The Breitling Top Time with some extra sauce: that’s the reason it appears in this top 5 from October. The Deus Top Time features the B01 manufacture calibre, with Deus written on the dial. An unworn, full-set from 2023 found its way to a new customer from Spain (who ordered two watches in 2 days on Wristler), so that makes it extra special for us. Thanks for your trust, and enjoy these watches Mr E!

RBR Lady-Datejust

Another day, another RBR Lady-Datejust. And this one is special as well! This customer bought his first watch on Wristler just two months ago, and since then, he became a regular customer for us. Which is amazing! This time he bought a present, and look at it: such an amazing piece! Filled with diamonds on the hour markers and bezel, combined with rose gold, this Rolex is a stunner. Thanks again, Mr B!

IWC Portuguese Automatic 7 days

This one is crazy. A customer from Mallorca was looking for this piece for a while now, and this one was the perfect match. A 7-day power-reserve is pretty crazy to be honest, and it looks stunning with the blue dial on this IWC Portuguese. Thanks for your trust, Mr A!

November: let’s get it

We can already tell you that November is awesome when it comes to sales. And some new releases with Dubai Watch Week going on, November is a great month already. Stay tuned for our November Recap within a couple of weeks! Thanks again for reading, see you soon!
