It doesn’t matter. Sales agent need to show politeness regardless who you are or whether you want to buy. Poor service is bad mouthed quickly. They might not like you but they have to treat you well. It’s duty of their job
After owning a GMT and OP for almost 10 years I wanted to get myself a Hulk for my 60th birthday, about 2 weeks later I came across a page about high end clones and decided to give it a try. Once came I compared it to my original GMT (in terms of quality, feeling of the steel etc), I understood one thing, China can't be beaten. There is no chance ANYONE will be able to spot it as a fake, Even the inside movement is identical. The build quality and finish put a lot of legitimate Swiss brands to shame. So yeah, there is no reason it costs 1m Pounds.
A million dollar watch whose design I loved and first bought me to the watch game, not so wealthy to buy this one but have a seiko 5 and some others but the thing that striked me was that the 12 hour markers were not aligned properly, I mean WHATTT, 1 MILLION DOLLARS, and both markers are slightly up and down wtf?
A few possibilities in my mind 1) a person has so much money that a million dollars for a watch is a rounding error. 2) someone who thinks this will appreciate more and be worth 2 million in 10yrs (I’m not sure with how large production numbers are, especially Since I don’t think the Nautilis hype will last forever and then I think Patek will bring it back. 3) can barely afford it but wants to “flex” on people
I remember when the 5711 version of this came out and it was not very well received. Especially for a limited production Patek (although, not really that limited, closer to an omega limited edition than a true small production number, especially with Patek's annual production) Can definitely tell this has been worn.
It's worth that money just as a Picasso painting is worth whatever people are willing to pay. Essentially, his paintings are something a child could produce.
It's such a pleasure to watch a video by which you remain unsure whether to appreciate the subject first or enjoy the mastership of the author in writing. Bravo and well done
A watch I could never afford but I am happy to settle with lower priced watches :) Let's all be happy with our watches because if we take care of our watches, it'll always be looking good. :)
I received my first Patek as a gift recently, a Calatrava, and of course I’m incredibly grateful given it’s a £30,000 watch, but frankly the quality is surprisingly poor. It doesn’t have hacking seconds, the date window isn’t always perfectly aligned and both the time and date take a frustrating amount of turns of the crown to adjust. As someone who owns a Lange (which genuinely is incredible in person), I am pretty shocked by how overpriced Patek is in comparison.
@@joelambert7128 clearly were taking about watches here, if I actually had a million to spare I'd buy one $2000 watch MAX and spend the rest like normal + invest
It costs a million if you buy from Watchfinder. There are listings for around 600,000 on Chrono24. I love this channel but Watchfinder is a complete ripoff.
Any chance reviewing the Jaeger Lecoultre Master Compressor Memovox. Had mine in the collection for years on a brown strap and deployment. It's the star of my collection and an absolute bargain. Such a gorgeous piece.
As a photographer I always find the Pentax camera set dressing funny. It would be like me doing a channel talking about luxury cameras and just having a random Timex on the desk for no reason ha. Anyways great channel, good stuff, love you loads xx.
Well if you are a real photographer you'd know you can make world class photos with any analogue camera. Even with a disposable camera. This Pentax here is a 35mm camera? 35mm analogue out performs a full frame digital camera. All depends on the photographer behind the lens. The photographer does the work not the camera. A real photographer would know this and would appreciate vintage analogue cameras like in this video. If you're that dependent on a camera (or photoshop for that matter) you're not a good photographer. That being said: Pentax is still around. Making digital cameras. A medium format Pentax these days costs 5000.

Looks like someone bought a watch to use it and enjoy it, not having it hidden in a box. In my opinion if you buy it and keep it in a box its probably to expensive for you. Whats the point in having something you are scared to even look at just so it stays in perfect condition.
Our modern world is insane hype can make expensive thins super expensive. But not just patek but orhers like rolex are owerpriced by the fools and demand.
Most people wouldn't know what this watch is and care even less. They know the name Apple and Rolex and anything else is too much effort to understand.
