Tag Heuer Meridiist Mobile Phone sells out!
The Tag Heuer Meridiist mobile is now available for £2650 yes that’s correct £2650. But, London’s Selfridges store sold out in a single day. Now I’m really not sure if this true or not maybe it’s a bit of a stunt but here’s what Ian Broad, UK Sales Manager said
“During peak times there were literally queues of customers waiting to see the TAG Heuer MERIDIIST. The corner where the tower display was situated was so full of people the corridor was completely blocked. Selfridges Wonder Room Floor Manager commented that he had never seen such enthusiasm and interest in a product in the Wonder Room on the first day of launch - from staff and customers alike. The Selfridges sales team was overwhelmed with backorders from customers.”
The full range of MERIDIIST will be available in 15 other markets by the end of the year, I’m sure they’ll be letting g all their customers know when they launch.
So if you happen to have £2650 handy I’m sorry to say you’ll have to wait because they are sold out…oh what a shame
