Big spenders go Christmas crackers
With watches costing €160,000, home entertainment systems at €140,000 and Christmas trees with decorations at €13,000, the rich have the world at their feet this Yuletide.
Among the hotspots for luxury shopping is Weir & Sons jewellers on Grafton Street, Dublin, where Geneva-made Patek Philippe watches starting at €10,000 are flying off the shelves.
