Finally got the call from Rolex...and I said No
Просмотров 3,1 тыс.19 часов назад
This is a bit of a deep one...It's not a discussion about whether or not war is good or bad, it is a discussion about the Rolex Air King's links to war. I really want feedback about this Rolex watch's history I may not be aware of. I'm still a new collector and I'm afraid of making certain choices I might regret. £7000 is a lot of money...

In this video, I review a watch from the affordable aliexpress watch brand, Merkur, one of my favourites. This textured dial is gorgeous and that's without considering it's price point. It's not quite grand seiko level finishing, but it is quite close to the naked eye. If you're looking for an affordable mens watch with a textured dial, look no further!

The Worst Upgrade Ever? Addiesdive Sand Dial & Addiesdive Cloud Sea Dial
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.Месяц назад
This one was disappointing. While I do tear into this watch quite a bit, I must reiterate that I am going based on how good I think the first one was. Overall for £60, it's good value for money, but based on the audience I think this watch could be for, I think Addiesdive could've done better. Maybe I'm wrong?

Is the Black Snoopy Moon Swatch Worth the Hype?
Considering the white dial of this, thank you! Do you know what quartz movement is used?
1. Thanks for the shout out 2. More importantly thanks for being open minded enough to read and listed to others Don’t let the nay sayers impact you or your decision making. Because rather they like or hate a watch it’s your wrist not there’s. And the only person you should have to justify your purchases through is you, god and your spouse if you share a bank account Looking forward to your next videos and watch purchases 🫡
Watching this while wearing my Laco Ulm 42 which made watches for the Nazis during WWII. I doubt he knows what Laco is or what flieger represents.
People hating on you & your views is just sad, I love your content and wish you the best!
LMAO this is hilarious
Translation- I actually do not have the financial means to purchase the watch so I am making up a story about soldiers and war even though I seem like a hypocrite doing so
Going back to the comments of the last video is so entertaining to see people just try to be smart arses instead of truing to politely educate you
oooo, you’re soo noble. You didn’t accept the Airking (the shittest Rolex watch which they hand out to any chump) to make a stand against war, not realising that the brand whose watch you kept made watches for soldiers in WW2. You’re a dork, a narcissistic egotistical insufferable nerd who doesn’t even know the history of the watch you own lol. Also, nice work deleting my previous comment you coward
You obviously can't afford the purchase and are looking for a reason to say no. And please, stop knocking on the table, it's really annoying.
❄️
Dude is a snowflake button.
It must be said, if you avoid anything in life with military connections, you wouldn't be able to purchase anything. Tee-shirts originated in the US military. Wrist watches on men were popularised by their use in WW1. By all means judge companies and products on their associations, but judge them on their current actions associations, because everything is awful if you look far enough back, and it's truly a miserable way to live. Love the videos man, especially the Instagram shorts, that's just a bit of advice from me.
You're smashing it man. You have exactly the right mindset. If these guys are this mad, you're smashing it. Exactly my thoughts when Brendan Boswell made a whole video shitting on me.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
you're killing it, man! Just remember that on the other side of that hateful comment there is a sad, lonely, conflicted person in their underwear who doesn't even have the courage to post a video themselves ❤💫
Geez, what a nerd
@@joelnakat2332 Thanks! Not sure why you think that would offend me as a watch nerd 🤣
@ 🤓oooh I don’t want this rolex airking (their worst watch that they try to peddle to everyone lol) because of its associations with war meanwhile your wearing a watch from a company that provided watches to soldiers during WW2. You’re a narcissistic rube, a dork, a nerd who doesn’t even know much about the industry you make videos on. With the way you’re carrying on, you’d think you’ve stopped all wars or something 😂😂

This a joke right? What kind of world do you live in?
Great video bro I love your content. On the edge of my seat to see more from you mate. Cheers. 🥂
@@Skyler.Santana thanks bro!
The haters need to find a new channel. While I still find I don’t fully understand the distinction you’re making on this product versus other war products and brands (even after fully watching the video), I still think you made a great video and an interesting topic. Keep pushing! Good luck!
Thanks! It’s something I’m still figuring out but I appreciate your patience while I do that.
I don't share your opinion but I respect it, therefore thumbs up.
There are two kinds of people in this watch community. People who will hate every opinion you have regardless and people who will respect that not everyone has the same opinions.
@@TomHudsonOfficial you’re absolutely right. There doesn’t seem to be a middle ground or grey area like I thought there was.
The trouble with social media, and the internet in general, is that you’re engaging with people you spend your whole life avoiding.
@@villenium AGREED! As much as I’ve had piles of horrible comments over the years, when I’ve been to in person watch events or met people out and about in the watch community, nobody has ever had anything horrible to say to me face, even when they’ve disagreed with my watch opinions.
@watcheswithkymYeah like with a lot of hobbies, the online community can be VILE, while the IRL community is super nice. I think that watches are kind of an icky subject because they are so closely related to financial status, so if you are wearing something like a rolex or AP just because you like the design, people may judge you or call you shallow because you have an expensive watch.
I think there’s some need to understand the history of wrist watches. Men’s wrist watches themselves are inventions of war… Soldiers in WW1 couldn’t hold a rifle and take out a pocket watch at the same time, so they started strapping their pocket watches to their wrist. Men’s wrist watches are literally part of military fashion. Also, Almost all watch history is in some way influenced by war. Field watches were worn by infantry. Pilot watches worn by airforce. Dive watches by marine divers etc etc. And basically all of the major watch brands have deep rooted histories with military. So I’m really not sure if this is just trolling or ignorance, but if you can’t buy wrist watches with military ties, then watch collecting or wearing watches in general is not meant for you… Again it literally Military fashion…
what a joke you are
moronic
... If you are following this logic almost all watch brands that existed during world war 2 have supplied watches to different military organizations. This ranges from all swatch group watches, including Omegas. Even modern watch companies including Casio is used by soldiers today.
wtf does this guy think he is. what an ignorant moron.
The Rock could pull off a Cartier Tank. Muhammad Ali did.
Wristwatches for men were all invented for war. War may be inherently bad, but defending yourself is inherently good. The brits were defending themselves in ww2.
Youre getting clowned everywhere so i had to check it out. Turns out its for a good reason
This is some of the most insane mental gymnastics, and completely entitled ignorace ive ever seen
I think you should go buy some wood and build yourself a sundial.
Shitty take
You literally will not find a watch that isn't made by some no-name that doesn't have a connection to the military. Are you stupid?
Bro its just a watch. If you dig that deeply with other random stuff from your life I’m pretty sure you could find similar reasons to not use/buy jt. Ie I hope you never need to ride in a Benz, VW, Porsche, or Audi!
I own a few different Merkur watches. They do not use Seiko movements. They are all a hand wound a version of Chinese company's movement (Seagull or Hangzhou likely). Fantastic watches, and I have yet to have a problem with any of them so I am very happy. Great video and camera work!
The self importance of this whole video is laughable. No one cares about what watch you wear!
Your tech was made by children in sweatshops so, don't buy tech? lol get a grip
Air-King is a glorious watch, buy it.
Total p*nter
If you're asking others to make the decision and the fact that your hesitant, tells me the watch isn't for you. You should be over excited that you got the call like anyone would be who has been waiting for their dream watch. I think you've answered your own question.
If things like that are a concern, you should probably avoid Rolex/ any watch brand as villains through out history have worn them
What a strange, overthinking person you are.
@@justmeeagainn thanks! Rather be a unique over-thinker than a mindless sheep 👍🏾
@watcheswithkym dude just gave you a HUGE compliment! Cheers!
Its a bloody watch, it isnt a nuclear weapon
Dear god. But he wears a Seiko who supplied japanese military with watches and instruments for aircrafts and ships during WW2. The level of ignorance is mindblowing.
Military watchers are the coolest ones. OP should try the wooden shitters some RUclipsrs shilled some time ago. Forgot their name.
...truly, if this is something so difficult inside of you...don't get the watch...internal strife is something difficult to live with...
I hate to tell you this but a lot of modern technologies we have came from both sides of world war 2… seiko made watches for the Japanese who committed horrible crimes against humanity. Hamilton and bulova made watches for the US. The nazi Germans gave us modern day jet technology. The Brits gave us modern day NATO straps
I have been collecting watches for 35 years, almost exclusively Rolex, I am now into Tudor, because I cannot buy Rolex anymore (I have 7)... until recently. The Airking has nothing to do with the war, the story goes that WWII pilots favoured Rolex over other brands due to its reliability. Rolex is the absolute master of marketing, think Redbull. Arguably they are responsible for the original influencers?
2 years for an Air King? You should be able to walk into any Rolex AD and get one within a month if not that day you walk in. Regardless, no matter what people think, buy what you like.
