Provoke Insights’ research is featured in a National Jeweler article detailing how jewelry purchasing habits have changed over the past year amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Provoke Insights sought to provide National Jeweler with a better understanding of the luxury buyer’s mindset. This research is also indispensable for jewelry brands looking to gauge the pandemic's impact on consumer habits and the industry as a whole.

Provoke Insights fielded an online survey to 3,000 Americans between the ages of 21 and 70. Based on the relevant findings, Provoke Insights created a buyer profile for the typical American luxury watch or jewelry buyer: 

  • 6% of Americans have purchased luxury watches or jewelry over the past three months.
  • Luxury watch or jewelry buyers are 89% optimistic about the future.
  • 53% of luxury buyers prefer to shop online rather than in-store.
