I sort of get it. But i think its a completely ridiculous idea, and anybody who is decently smart would figure out that if they really wanted a watch, they could finance it for the same price that these rental watches are...
For instance, a $5k breitling is leased or "rented" for around 300-400 a month. Should you just buy the watch, it could theoretically be financed for 24 months at 0% financing (lots of jewelers do this now) for $208/month.... AND youre left with an asset in the end.
