Amazon‘s sales jumped almost 40% to total $2.24 billion in 2020, a boost driven by online sales during the Covid crisis. Signet remained the biggest seller of watches and jewelry in 2020, although its sales dropped 13% year-on-year to $4.84 billion. Walmart came second with a marginal fall in sales totaling $2.86 billion.
