Right on Jason! Always great to come up to your shop 🤙🏼, a great bonus to see the TGN guys on the call for this episode of the cafe. Great hangout afterward!
Thanks for the "bonus episode" of TGN. 🙂 Loved hearing the conversation. Note: If you do more of these, I'd suggest skipping the background music. I found it quite annoying. Like sitting on hold and having an infinite loop of hold music.
Jason has THE BEST voice for audio mediums.
Which Jason?
@@JustAboutTime Heaton of course! haha
Doxa coming to Roldorf? That's exciting!
Oh yeah it's official alright. Roldorf is the one and only search result for Roldorf on Doxa's store locator. Awesome, congrats Jason, Mary, and team!
Ok. Maybe I'll get one more watch
Hello and welcome to Just One More Watch, lol
@@justthisguyyouknow42It"s the last one . I promise.
Would be much better to see this watch in the daylight
This is great, Jason! Props to you and Mary and your team.
🙏🙏
Thanks Jason. This was a great a great talk.
Keep at this. The channel will grow.
Many thanks, we're already working on episode 6 (shock and magnetism), and you can be sure we will keep this going.
restock when
Such a fantastic peace. A tough watch, made for tough guys. I like it very much.
Awesome - thanks for posting this!!! And Jupp drinking Tim Horton's - how Canadian. ha ha
Thanks for enjoying the video. Indeed, he enjoyed our Canadian hospitality :D
Thanks for having me. It has been a great event.
We couldn't have been happier to have you drop by. Many thanks Jupp.
Too bad you added a soundtrack, especially jazz - no need and totally distracting. The subject can carry itself. I wish I was there.
You should close the blinds and turn off at least the front lights if possible.
No one wants to see the side of your face or laptop. Play the PowerPoint with you in a smaller PIP window or occasional cut to. We can’t see anything that you’re talking about.
this is a great shot for a lecture, me and boys are enjoying his face every minute of it. You just can't stand that he's got this beautiful ginger orange suit and you don't
Sadly, we don’t have a way to record a feed from the laptop as the presentation is in ‘prezzie’ and so the slideshow animations are controlled at the time. We’re still in our early days of trying to set these lectures into a podcast format. We had initially only intended an audio version but we decided to try some video versions. So bear with us as we improve things.
@@vanodyssey1659 my high tech solution is to…move the camera. Call Lucasfilm.
@@roldorfco move the camera to a better angle. Then add your presentation slides in video insets in post. Sorry, I’m a retired media professional. We could do this 30yrs ago.
@@f.kieranfinney457 There is an audience sitting where you would presumably want the camera angle to be ... so, it's not quite as simple as you think. But we are working on it.
Really really awesome talk! Thank you for sharing all this information!
Thanks for enjoying the lecture. Much more to come.
Nice video
It is!
Is it normal for the second hand to slide back after it jumped?
ALO never produced Jeff Beck. I attempted listing all his discography and who he managed- very impressive. I've read all your books and the ones about you. Thank you for your contribution
Loogie the droogie!! 🤓🕺🏿
Now this is cool.
Cool & fresh!
Can’t wait to visit ! I have a trip planned to Vancouver in November and will definitely stop by!
Love the uniqueness of the u1 and u50 and I love the tegimented steel. Not as crazy about the selitta movement (for the price) and the AR coating on the outside of the crystal. Not crazy about the huge clasp either. Still, the U50 has been a very tempting watch for me
All in its great value for money and keeps excellent time. The tegimented case/ bracelet is among the best for the price. You are undervaluing how insane it is that a watch with such a slim profile is 500m waterproof..
Hello! Whick of the three case sizes are shown and what is the wrist size in the video? Thanks for the information! ;-)
Bauhaus design,
2023 will be the best one yet.
To persevere and come out stronger from a devastating event is truly remarkable and an example to all. It’s fun to see your humorous side. Next time I’m in Vancouver I will be dropping by a visit and I’ll be bringing some of my watches for servicing. Merry Christmas Jason and Mary.
Thanks so much Asko, it's that time of year to do something tongue and cheek. It'll be great to see you when you're in town. Wonder what watch you'll wear? :-)
Merry Christmas to you both! Cheers!
Congratulations you two. Telling everyone I know about your beautiful watches and, most importantly, the incredible buying experience. Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas Roldorf & Co. 😃
Great interview, Jason! Caught some of it live on Instagram but the audio was really low on the stream. Nice to catch up on the bits I missed, thanks for sharing! (Written wearing my Sinn 556A RS from Roldorf and Co., LOL)
Thanks for watching. Yes the audio was very quiet for the live feed as it was just from the phones built in mic .. we're working on having a much better live setup for next time. However, despite everything we are very happy with the interview with Joerg Dandl and we can't wait to plan for our next event.
What an utterly boring interviewer. Hopeless. He hasa no idea. Is primarily interested in the sound of his own slow, dull voice.
The new shop is beautiful .. if you're in Vancouver I urge you to go see it.
Great to see you in your new shop and showroom - many greetings from #sinncity Frankfurt / Germany and all the best wishes!
Congrats on re-opening!
Excited to come up and visit 🤘🏼
This was such a traumatic event to have witnessed, but I'm absolutely delighted and excited that the new shop is opening soon.
I'm beyond excited and so so happy for you guys. Great to see you coming back stronger than ever!
My Oris small seconds and Omega seamaster, 500, and 300m, Sinn, hold my beer.😁
Yes, the UX sure does pack a punch, and in such a terrific size. We're delighted to say we'll be having these all back in our new showroom and shop .. opening soon.
Great stuff
I bought an all black U50S last month , it's a gorgeous looking watch . Nearly bought the Longines Hyro , glad I didn't.
Bought my U50 fully Tegemented all black s model A month ago and have not taken it off yet. The Pelagos and Seamaster sit.
I can totally understand .. the U50 is a tough watch and great to look at as well. Still .. always nice to have your other watches for those occasions when you fancy a temporary change :D .. The U50 is a great everyday watch.
Excellent watch, and advert. Can't wait to see more.
The serial shots are amazing, nice and crisp. And a gorgeous watch.
Very cool!
Wish I was in Vancouver for this event...super cool!
