: What does all this mean? I'm not entirely sure.

I'm sure it's a regional thing. Today I was at the Millenia Mall here in Orlando and didn't see one Planet Ocean. A couple weeks before Christmas I saw nearly every size/color/strap combination available there, yet today, not one. I saw plenty of Rolexes - Subs, Sea Dwellers, Daytonas, but not a single Planet Ocean. Given that it just came out this year I would suspect it was a big seller this holiday season.
