    Honestly guys, I definitely far prefer your approach to the conversation around watches and have always loved what you’ve put out, but I also understand how people not already into watches might find a lot of the stuff that some of my favourite watch RUclipsrs, including yourself, a bit pretentious. I love that there is an effort to be refined about things, but for a popular audience I think his boisterousness is part of why Nico was able to gain so much traction. The fact that he is such a personality makes him stand out and seem probably more appealing to people first getting into watches who may be a bit overwhelmed by the prevailing culture, even if that culture isn’t ACTUALLY snobby (it can just appear that way from the outside looking in, imo).
    His success comes from a different place than yours and I think that it’s impossible to compare outcomes when you're delivering such vastly different content with very different base audiences. Your success is amazing and I look forward to seeing it only grow further!

    He seems like a genuine guy. What you see is what you get. I bet being his friend would be a blast. Loud people can embarrass you from time to time, but over the long run, they create more hysterical and memorable moments than anyone. I’ll take a friend like that everyday.

    Seems like just about every large enough friend circle has a person like Nico. We definitely have ours! EVERYONE knows him, and they remember the names and current life details of a nearly incomprehensible number of people, so they genuinely care about their friends. But they can absolutely come off as brash, pushy, know-it-all, aggressive, etc. I appreciate them in the right moments, but they can be incredibly draining or embarrassing at the wrong moments, lol.

    Nico has a way of being brutally honest with his opinions. And I think some might be put off by this, however I think it's a great quality to have and it could be the reason why he is so popular. Btw, Nico has no problems laughing at himself. . I would imagine you would need thick skin to deal with him on a regular basis. But, I don't know him or have ever done business with him. People that have might have a different opinion of him.

    I don't follow Nico because of his particular brand of watch commentary, but that's not to say he's a bad guy, he seems like geeat fun. There was a lot of beef between Nico and Oisin O'Mally that dominated for a while, court case, police involved etc. Drama like that seems unnecessary, after all, it's just watches and they don't actually matter at all 😅
    Oisin O'Mally seems to have an issue with just about everyone though, especially if you think watches don't make for a particularly reliable asset/investment category. His fall out with Britt Pearce was laughable and completely over the top.
