OT: The Podcast

James Kennedy - Managing Director and CEO of Kennedy Watches & Jewellery


Listen Later

This week's guest is James Kennedy, the Managing Director and CEO of Kennedy Watches & Jewellery, one of Australia's leading luxury retailers.

We chat with James about what it's like to be an Authorised Dealer for some of the world's most prestigious and desirable watch brands/

James shares (in detail) about how he turned a small family business into an Australia-wide business and the lessons he's learned along the way.

We discuss the booming popularity of watches over the last 15 years, and what his thoughts are on the future of luxury, including the perennially thorny questions of allocation and investment, as well as the state of the Australian market more broadly.

You don't have to have walked through the doors of a Kennedy boutique for James' insights into the industry to resonate, this is an insightful discussion for anyone interested in the business of watches.

This episode is sponsored by Kennedy.
