Cleveland, OH, June 18, 2018 – US personal spending on jewelry and watches in nominal terms is forecast to total $100 billion in 2022, according to Jewelry & Watches: United States, a report recently released by Freedonia Focus Reports. Advances will stem from rising numbers of new marriages and increased consumer disposable income permitting gifting and self-purchasing for jewelry, especially among women.
Gifts are a major reason people purchase jewelry and watches.

This report forecasts US personal consumption expenditures (PCE) on jewelry and watches in both nominal and real (inflation-adjusted) US dollars to 2022. Total spending in both nominal and real terms is segmented by product in terms of:
To illustrate historical trends, total PCE, the various segments, and trade are provided in annual series from 2007 to 2017.
