Succession

Succession’s quiet luxury taste shines through in eBay data

Exploring the watch collections of the Roy dynasty, eBay reveals Shiv’s timepieces are most coveted, including the square-faced Cartier Panthere.

Succession hit TV screens five years ago now, and all is set to be concluded next Monday when the series finale airs.

The fate of the Roy family will be revealed but the influence it has had on luxury watch buying on the secondary market is something worth taking into account as things come to an end.

Exploring the watch collections of the Roy dynasty, eBay reveals Shiv’s timepieces are most coveted, including the square-faced Cartier Panthere.

Searches of this model have seen an increase of more than 450% in the past year, as people looked for their own piece of understated luxury.

The Cartier Panthere is the preferred watch of the potential CEO, and beat her brother’s timepiece choices.

Wider leading characters in the show have been seen wearing the following styles over the seasons, available to shop with eligibility, backed by eBay’s Authenticity Guarantee.

  • Roman Roy’s Rolex Datejust
  • Tom Wambsgans’ Cartier Santos
  • Cousin Greg’s Steel Rolex Submariner
  • Kendall Roy’s Vacheron Constantin Traditionelle; Patek Philippe Nautilus
  • Lukas Mattsson’s Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris

Reflecting on the data, Keith Metcalfe, Director of Luxury at eBay UK said:  “Succession is a modern classic and has made a significant cultural impact, even bringing in a new reflection of luxury with neutral and understated dressing being at the forefront.

“Similarly across eBay, we’re seeing people choose quiet luxury timepieces, such as the Cartier Panthere, worn by Siobhan Roy, and Jaeger-LeCoultre which is often on Logan’s wrist, which evoke both business and power while being extremely reliable.”
