      My fiancee gave me a Stuhrling skeleton watch, less than $200, looks and functions reliably so far. Get way more compliments and attention from it than a Rolex that was handed down to me. Might be worth taking a look at one and letting us know what you think.

    Love the channel as a fragrance guy and a watch guy this is great. I agree on all your comments about Rolex. I have always wanted a Rolex GMT Master, the newer style just doesn't do it for me, plus the last several years they just over inflated the prices. For my 50th picked up the Tudor GMT and love it. Looks classic, like what Rolex used to be.
    As I watch guy I personally think you can get just "as good" or close to it with a Tudor, Breitling, or Omega and they have the names as well.
    Grand Seiko and for a drive watch the Oris is great.

    You’re not collecting watches for the sense of gaining status, yes sometimes that is at play.. but more than that wristwatches are something that hold a great amount of stories yet it is right there in our hands, very personal. Most people after they buy couple of jeweler iced out rolexes they get bored. That’s because they’re buying it for others and soon as others see less of them, the watches get less interesting. To really be a collector who can love and savor the moments with your watches, knowledge about watches is essential. The more you know about something, the more you know what makes it special, the more you can actually enjoy it. Knowing that there are Bakelites GMTs, The meaning of letterings in Rolex dials { i.e the underlines, scoc instead of occ, etc} Realizing that Rolex was founded in 1905 and most of its peers are made in 1800s, Understanding that wristwatches are actually used as a tool by its wearer back in early 90’s - to be fair they didn’t have a phone, they actually use it to measure time. This and many other intriguing stories that makes it a journey of collecting, a hobby that consist of a thousand stories of mechanical developments. That is how you make collecting watches pleasurable, enjoyable, knowing that in your hands it holds centuries of mechanical marvel, that it speaks volume.

I won’t be able to afford the watch for at least a year or two. Is it a justifiable purchase? Or should I just go with the 39 mm Longines Conquest And be happy? For me the Rolex will be a reminder of how much I have overcome and accomplished. It will remind me of the years of studying and being in school and not giving up.

  • @j.burgess4459
    @j.burgess4459 Před 4 lety +15

    Firstly a quick correction: the Rolex watches being sold today have a recommended service interval of 10 years - not 5 years as Antonio says here. With earlier models the interval was 7 years. This is still a factor to think about - but perhaps more especially if someone owns a lot of them.
    That point aside, I think Antonio does make some thoughtful and valid observations here. There are downsides to collecting Rolex (or other luxury watches) and it isn't many CZcams gurus who pause to take a careful look beyond the hype.
    However there is inevitably something a bit hollow about an individual who _owns four Rolex watches_ making a video along the lines: "hey, you really shouldn't go buying Rolex, guys!" As a general rule of life people do need to practise what they preach in order for their advice to be taken seriously - in my opinion.

I dunno, you would think he might have given himself the message by watch number three!? I don't want to be unfair to Antonio, but I suspect that what he really means in this video is that HIS VIEWERS (just ordinary regular people) shouldn't be buying Rolex. But maybe he sees himself as being a little superior to us, you know? Like I say, I don't want to be unfair, but that's a little bit the impression I get here.

      @@stephm4047 Yes, Roger does have a lot of sponsors, and he does make much more money through them than he does through playing matches. But he's worked hard to get to where he is today, and I think he deserves everything that he has. To still be at the pinnacle of the sport at 38 years of age and after all he's achieved, is incredible in my opinion. He also doesn't just spend his money on fancy cars. Sure, he has a nice house, nice car and nice watches but he also created a foundation to give kids in South Africa an opportunity to have an education and he gives advice to younger players to help them grow and maybe even surpass him. That's why I think he's an inspiration to us all.

    Again, great useful content. Sir, just want to tell you that, the new background is extremely distracting, everything on the background wants to catch the viewers attention which makes them less attentive on your words. The viewer all times wants to know which watches are at the display, are they new or same as the last video, why are they masked, what's the reason of masking, then guessing the watches, which books are those, do I have any, have I read any, etc such thoughts keep popping at mind while listening to you and eyes are at constant move on all the objects which defocuses you. The clean ONLY YOU background is very effective so that we focus on you and your content.
    Hope to see the clean background next times. Thank You.

If you love Rolex then buy Rolex or just buy any watch you love at a price you are comfortable with and that will make you happy and proud every second on your wrist.
    To sum it up- The watch to get is the one you really lusted after and fell in love with, Rolex, Omega, Breitling, Invicta, Casio, Tag, Timex etc.. Whatever makes you happy! :-)

    The Explorer is amazing, my favorite too.
    Basically mechanical watches are a technology of the past. Smart watches are today’s technology. But of course it does not bring the status of a high end mechanical watch which is a bit the equivalent for men of jewelry for women. So it is a bit like the way men are with vintage cars, like Jaguar, or motorcycles.
    I also had an expansive watch stolen , wearing it in a club, so yes it does happen.
    I was sure the one you had was going to be a Tudor, the Rolex little sister brand.

      (I am a third generation watchmaker that is why I can say he doesn't understand watches at all) also if he is gonna say all this about Rolex he also has to say it about all fine watches, and once he is there he has to say it about fine clothes and shoes.

    3 options when maintenancing/ servicing a Rolex first option take it to Rolex it will run you $1,200 and up depending how damaged / parts are overhaul second option take it to a 4 star ⭐️ local dealer -you know the ones that sell second hand watches that are located in your cities best part of town best shopping centers restaurants and they will charge $800 and they’ll probably do a weird job-third option take it to a local dealer that buys and sells gold in a small shop you know those shops that do custom jewelry repairs located by McDonald’s for about $100 and chance that they use non Rolex parts -Yeh so it’s expensive no real short cuts with Rolex

      How right you are Rolex*Jerk,
      A good friend o f mine who is wealthy only recently divulged he was a watch collector.
      We went to pick up his repaired Rolex. The shop was right in the heart o f Sydney, Australia's central business district. The shop was in the upstairs of an arcade in a discrete location. This shop had no name.
      A distinguished gentlemen let us in. I was introduced as an acquaintance. He paid $US1,100 at that time.
      This Rolex was selling at $US20k.
      I found out later that these high end watch repair retailers and repairer's, just like in the United Kingdom usually don't have names unless it's a pre-1912 business
      E.g. Williams and Son Est 1908.
      The sign of genuine wealth. (NOTE - I don't get it and don't pretend too.)
      Even in this age of Social Media these high end businesses survive on word of "ecpensive" mouths.
      After we left I mentioned some well known Australian jewellery shops f o r these repairs. I was stunned when my friend said "they steal the original parts". You have the watch valued later and find out a $28k watch is only worth 10 as essential original parts were replaced by cheap ones.
      I was amazed. . .

    I happen to disagree with a lot of what you’re saying. Allow me to make a few points. 1. The likelihood of you losing a ton of money on reselling a Rolex is low at the most I’d be surprised if you lost more than $500 that and when you buying something expensive you know that you’re not gonna get your money back from selling it and if you’re just gonna give not one but two very expensive watches away you most not be too concerned about losing money. 2. Some grand Seiko’s are just as expensive as Rolex yes the spring drive movement may be a little bit more accurate but for me I like watches that tick and you don’t get that in a Spring drive movement you can in their hi beat movement but it cost more. 3. I’d tell everyone who’s just “getting into” watches to start with omega and some IWC watches are not too expensive that and buy used. Nice black bay btw.
