    Emailed him for a watch- was really blunt in his response.- not as energetic and friendly as he comes across on CZcams. I was sceptical about trusting him before, but definitely wouldn't be giving thousands of pounds to someone who doesn't engage properly with potential clients.

    It's amazing that you can own all these amazing time pieces given your young age. (I think) Most people would have to wait years to get their hands on an AP, Rolex or Patek Phillipe. 👍

I started watching his videos for a watch I was interested in but I stayed cause the entrepreneurial journey makes for a great story.

    Backpack full of watches, picks up a watch and while still outside says it's genuine. Something not quite right with this lad.
    "These would usually absolutely fly, like they would fly - and I've even advertised them ridiculously cheap, so I've either not hit the right audience with who I'm trying to sell these too, or, yeah people just aren't buying"
    ......or people just don't trust a bloke with a backpack as an office, and no apparent physical business behind him. So, you'll consider selling back to the trade - which makes zero sense. At least you'll get your tax/VAT back on the loss , right.
    Oh, then you say watch dealing is not difficult?? But you struggle selling two of the most in demand sports watches? It's like watching [pardon me] two different people.

      @@glenrichards8508 they don’t want to show the loss they are moving the watch at and the new price they should be trading at so they just trade the watches back and fourth to each other. It’s how the prices got so high in the first place. I think 90% of the “sales” we have been seeing for say stainless daytonas at $45-50k are really trades between dealers to falsely inflate the price and occasionally they catch a fish. No person with $50k to spend is going to spend $50k on a stainless daytona purely out of principal. I know this because I’m one of them. I have a white gold daytona on oyster that I wanted and paid $1000 above retail a few years ago because I wanted it and knew it would be difficult to get but I would never pay double.
