HIGH END RETAILING MOVING IN TO SF

There are three high-end watch outlets moving into now available space at San Francisco's very upscale (or at least used to be) Union Square.

 

Breitling is opening up a 3,400 sq ft operation at 299 Post Street.  Also 255 and 259 Post St. are going to be opening Rolex and Patek Philippe retail operations by Kerns Fine Jewelry.

 

It will be interesting to see if they manage to last and what sort of security, especially customer access, they are going to have.  I have a sneaking hunch that you won't be able to just push the door open and walk in while wearing a mask and a hoodie.  Probably.

 

I wish them luck.  I suspect they might need it.
