    Mark is the man! Love the 3 pieces especially the Klings!

    These two Singaporean (in case someone doesn't like me to call them Chinese) represent the high standard of East Asian being flamboyant, stylish and pretentious in the lovely way.

    Watching this the 3rd time now, never gets old, a real fun conservation 👍🏻
    The Crash Looks great with the sleeve, Wei, would be great to see your complete Cartier collection one day … 🙏🏻

    The back of the KLINGS is really gorgeous and clean; not often did we see the balance wheel, the escape wheel and the barrel so simply laid out in that lucid way.

    Seeing Mark smoke reminds me of the good/cute kids who used to smoke to hang out with the tough guys at school haha
    Incredible video, I admire you both!

    Glad the sound is a lot better in this one. Both very entertaining chaps. I like the edginess of Wei Koh mixed with the public boyish image of Mark.

    2:00 the left of the watch looks like a classic vintage mass produced weighing scale

    Hm.. When I saw the Klings, I immediately thought of the Breguet 5907, until he flipped to the back ofc. But lovely watch, definitely gives off that vintage era and I feel most independent watch makers are fairly influenced by Breguet's style

    Which jurisdiction are involved? I assume the bona fide purchaser for value (of the stolen watch) rule does not apply in your case? Is there a universal stolen watch registry that people need to check against?

    Funny everyone goes crazy about the Klings... the Naoya Hida is my favorite by far (as long as Wei's Cartier remains out of competition 😅)

      It is a stunning piece. That and an A Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk would be on my list of dream watches.

    I also love my 38mm blue dial... budget is a little different. Tissot not FPJ.

    Dumb question maybe, but who in the future would be trusted with servicing the C. Klings?

    • @base924
      @base924 Před 2 lety +1

      Many or most Independent watchmakers can service this. No worries about complications or preserving finish.

    A good example showing that money does not buy class (nor respect). Drop the cigars, it really doesn't suit any of you guys.
