Coming in first is the Submariner Date in Oystersteel, priced at KRW 16.5 million (approximately $12,500) on Viver, which accounted for 16.5% of total sales. Following close in second place with just two fewer watches sold and a 16.2% share of sales is the Submariner in Oystersteel, which is set apart by its lack of a date indicator. Last but not least, the Submariner Date in Oystersteel and yellow gold took up 13.7% of sales.</p><p>The watch sold the fastest on the platform was the Rolex Datejust 41 in Oystersteel and white gold. Sporting the iconic Jubilee bracelet and fluted bezel, the timepiece took just a minute and 42 seconds from registration to sale.</p><p>Though Rolex has evidently claimed its superlative title as the platform’s most popular brand, Audemars Piguet secured its own as the most expensive. The priciest timepiece to ever be sold on Viver is the Royal Oak model for KRW 130 million.</p><h2 id="header-2">Exponential growth</h2><p>The platform also <a href="https://newsis.com/view/?id&#61;NISX20230823_0002424120&amp;cID&#61;13001&amp;pID&#61;13000" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">added</a> four new brands in June — Patek Philippe, Omega, Cartier, and Vacheron Constantin. Consequently, total transaction value, product registrations, and product purchases in July increased by 34%, 116%, and 36%, respectively.</p><p>As a result of these combined efforts, both monthly trade count and transaction volume on Viver have spiked by more than 15 times since its establishment last August, while the number of users has grown by about 10 times over the past year.</p><p>The number of products directly registered by sellers also increased by about 30 times compared to the first month since the platform’s launch.</p>
