I was at the Paragon mall in Thailand. There's a floor where all the luxury car brands have a retail space for the crazy rich Asians (acceptable term now thanks to the movie) to place custom car orders. Then in the breezeway between two sections of the building, with no ropes to cordon them off, and exposed to the rain, were 15 different McLarens. I asked the salesman why McLaren stocks 15 cars at the mall, sitting outside and unprotected, while Aston, Ferrari, Rolls, etc all had to be ordered from a showroom. He said they sell them to people that were there to buy something else, likely a watch (men) or necklace (women). They'll impulsively buy a McLaren as an accessory to something else they just purchased which likely cost more than the car. These customers will buy a half million dollar car on the spot because it compliments another purchase they just made, and they don't want the wait time of a custom order. Where do place them on the rich-reall rich scale? New category?
There's no "real rich". You're either rich or not. You're rich if you have more than $700 million in assets. Basically you have to get close to being a billionaire to be rich.
@@lost5587 Yes you are. Do you even know how much a proper mansion costs? Tens of millions of dollars at least. If you can't afford one and at least another vacation home, you're not rich.

Working in a luxury brand repair shop I can say the "rich" mentality makes my job very hard and very stressful. So much so that when I have a customer with the "very rich" mentality it's so refreshing that I usually do the job with higher priority and for less hours. I want to reward those individuals that have put themselves in my shoes and can act as a decent human being. Additionally, those Same sympathetic humans, when faced with an Unreasonable request, I'm still included to help because they usually are few and far between that I feel as though I'm just helping.
A watch is a highly speculative investment. It's fashion. Just because something's expensive today, doesn't mean people will want to be seen with it on their wrist over the long term. I would expect a rose gold Rolex to go up in value like a leisure suit.
When my dad was really heavy into buying watches he had 3 different legitimate watch vendors he used. He would find the watch he wanted and made sure all 3 had it, then the haggling started. He bought rolexes and Tag Heuer's for thousands less. It was great to see him to do it.
As someone who runs their own watch dealership, a lot of waitlisting is artificial, the grey market prices for some pieces are falling dramatically. Not exactly the best advice for buying watches an investment. However that’s not the message this video is trying to convey so I wont dig further!
The truth is these videos are about 50% accurate, while I’m working class, I volunteered on a a lot of political campaigns back in the day (late 90s early 2000s) and met a ton of new money upstarts and old money folks. And they are all just like everyone else, some are cool as hell and some are total bellends.
The watch is $40K. The grey market price is $60K with a premium or mark-up being $20K of that price. Crown is saying that he can triple that $20K to $60K. Add back in the original price of $40K and you've got $100K into that watch. $60K is the grey market price and $40K is the opportunity cost.
One story had a security consultant show up at a construction site for a favor for a friend, in Texas. He met a beach bum looking fellow who was wearing Very comfortable, but somewhat ragged or holy clothes and sandals. The Consultant assumed he was a manager of a sort and because it was a favor for a friend kept trying to defer the payment and generosity by the man thinking he couldn't afford it, as well. End of the inspection the 'beach bum' took the consultant out to a steak restaurant chain for dinner. The cons. only found out near the end that he wasn't the manager that was whining and dining but it was HIS building he inspected for thieves. AND all those steak franchises in the area were also His businesses too so he could have had the dinner expensed as business related on the taxes. 🤣
I will never understand the watch game. Dives and classic leatherbands are more pleasing to the eye than a random chunk of metal, yet the watch community only seems to care about flash and hates plain Jane's.
@jmnthe3rd that completely misses the point of fashion. It's about self expression. A way to let the world know who you are on the inside. It's literally an art. Why would waste that on a dogwhistle to elitism? It feels like no one told them what fashion was about to begin with
Rolex doing that though kind of fucks with the market cuz you gotta buy like 6 other watches before you can be on the wait list to buy the one that you actually want if it really expensive
Actually, the AD will make you spend thousands in unwanted purchases (jewellery, less desirable watches) and then if you’re lucky they will sell you the Rolex you want. In the bigger picture if you buy off the gray market you’ll end up spending less. Source: I have a significantly large high end watch collections.
Facts. It's cheaper to overpay a buddy who's trying to sell theirs than it is to buy a bunch of crap you don't want on the off chance the dealer likes you and decides to sell to you
But if you are really rich you don't need to have the watch and can and will walk away. And they know that so they are willing to sell without making you buy the extra stuff.
@@Duke00x mate if you’re really rich they’re going to try milking you even more. they don’t give a shit how much money you have, they want to meet sales targets.
This is so true.. my AD called me on a white gold submariner. I put my name down in 2020, they called me a month ago.. 15k more .. than it was in 2020. had to pass lol.
And I would NEVER spend 10's of thousands of dollars on a stupid watch..... But then again I have no capacity for being "Rich" cuz i would just keep the bare minimum and donate the rest
@@jakerogers6062 no, they don't, that shits a lie... nobody is going Rolex shopping and buying a used one for more than they cost new, that's just an excuse for ppl to waste money trying to impress others.

Altho an idiot like that would have a hard time getting kne because those companies have long lists special requirements or invitations to buy their stuff unless bkught at a preowned place
Very true should have mentioned the relationship with the AD aswell if rich is going for the first time to buy a (he seems like an all gold Daytona guy) he's going on the 2 year wait list, if Crown has been buying watches and getting services and jewelry for his significant other from there for some time he will immediately get priority and could have his watch much faster
My grandfather sang at the sultan of Brunei's birthday in the 80s and was gifted a Rolex Oyster Perpetual for doing so, after he passed away I inherited it, it's prestine in box, never worn, and has all provenance. My sale price is $4,000,000 and it goes up every year.
Before the pandemic, watch prices were skyrocketing but now they are falling. I’d never call a watch a good investment. It doesn’t pay dividends and you don’t get compounding interest. Plus you have to pay to get it serviced. It’s a luxury item that’s nice to have but you don’t need it. There is an opportunity cost too because that money could be used for better investments. I wouldn’t buy one until you can afford it with cashflow from investments. Being financially independent is more important than looking rich. Plus when you are making enough money that you could buy one (or two or three) it kind of loses it’s appeal and I’d rather have something more practical so I wear a digital Timex version of the G-shock. You can spend 10k on a watch and it still won’t know the difference between a month with 30 or 31 days until you get to an annual calendar which costs twice as much and even if you let it sit for too long it will stop working. Buying expensive watches that stand out can make you a target for criminals too. Also Bill Gates wears cheap Casio watches so if you want to act like the really really really rich then go buy yourself a cheap battery operated watch and keep investing your money.
Watches are not investments! Aside from basically 1 company and only their Professional models, most of the other models either loose value or deemed not "collectable". If you buy a watch, buy it because you like it and not because of "investment" potential. Please! Flippers are ruining the watch market.
For those who don't get the joke, the 007 watch looks like one of the cheapest Rolex watches, but the OGs sell for about 700k to 1million dollars
They sold for that. Not anymore.
