Nice intro video, however do know that if you are buying a watch from Bob's or anywhere else for that matter, be sure that you're getting a watch with all matching serial numbers and not a Frankenstein model where the watch was pieced together from various watches as it will affect the value. I learned this the hard way after buying a President that I found out later had a Rolex bracelet but one that was not original to the watch and had been reconditioned. The same was true for the dial and watch hands. All parts were Rolex, but a mash-up from other watches that dramatically affected the watch value.
lmao, how different are entry and luxury segments watch fans. You call it a "Frankenstein" and warn others, we call it a "seikomod" and wear proudly. P.S. ofc, it is a joke. That's horrible story, mate, I can't imaging how hard it hits to buy an expensive and very desirable piece you probably hunted for a months and find out that it is not the thing you willed to pay for.
Watches are so 80s. Nobody wear watches anymore. The cell phone keeps much better time than any Rolex. Rolex should start making jewelry. Watches are useless relics.
Next time I go into a AD Rolex shop and hear "we don't have that in stock," I'll ask for directions to the nearest AD Grand Seiko shop and drop 10K there on a watch. I'm at a point Rolex needs to sell me on why I should buy a Rolex. I hope you read this Rolex.
I think you're missing the point. Rolex has all the buyers they want. They don't need you. They are selling $1000 watches for $10k plus. If they sell everyone who wants and can afford one a watch, then the price plummets. Go buy your Sieko! It's a great watch. A watch anybody can buy if they have the money (many models). At the end of the day you're still wearing a Seiko and the Mr Jones you're keeping up with has a Rolex. You know you want it ! 😂 Rolex don't care! It's a business model and it's working. I'll keep rockn my Orient because they have my favorite business model. CAF!
@@ashleymadison9380 i dont think you understand how the economy works. if everyone that can afford it gets it at retail price. the value gets solidified. instead of getting looked down upon. more people will agree that its stupid to buy a 1k watch for 10k while having to deal with bullshit the company is giving u. they should be happy their getting those crazy profit margins. ur probably one of those guys that chase mid girls that think theyre hot & play hard to get. because thats what ur defending

Congrats on scoring your grail watch, the G-Shock GW-5000U-1ER! That’s an awesome choice-known for its durability and classic design. Plus, it’s always nice to skip the waiting list!
How can you tell the difference between new and worn 2022 model. The owner could polish watch and say it's new and wore the watch for a year. When light touch up wears off you see the scratches and that's hard to catch
Picked up a MAMACOO's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!
AMZWATCH is one of my favorite watch manufacturers they do offer beautifull dials, good workmanship & moovements.That smooth sweeping second hand is truly mesmerizing！

Please help As someone who don’t wear jewelry or accessory, I’ve been wanting to get myself a Rolex watch for some time now.

Yes, I would buy a Rolex if I wanted to spend money on a useless outdated relic. I don't wear watches because I have a cell phone which keeps perfect time.

Some watch stores selling Rolex brand new, with box, tag, document but without Rolex Certificate card. They say they can authenticate their Rolex watches are real ones. What do you think about that, and I don't understand why these real Rolex Watches have no certificate cards to identify they are the real Rolex watches?
Listen. In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the Rolex.
Funny thing is at one of the latest auctions I went to for upper Suisse watches . There was some sort of special edition G shock that sold for more than many top brands. I of course turned away and couldn't believe it. Ended up with a nice Patek for $1000.00 less than that G Shock. And I am fine with that.
I would like to buy a preowned rolex that has potential to become a vintage watch and go up in price over time, let's say within 5-10 years. Is there something I should look at? Budget is 4-figures
@@GlobalrellWhy not? Genuinely curious, this seems odd to me. I've never bought an expensive watch before. Why have a dealership if they won't sell anything?
I bought a watch from MAMACOO lightly used for my last milestone birthday. Don't wear it as much as it deserves, but not afraid to, either. It's stunning . Good taste, Sir.
I'll save you the 7 minutes of watching this. Video headline: How to buy a Rolex? Don't wait a long time from a Authorized dealer, buy one way over retail from a reputable second hand market dealer. Btw, he is a second hand market dealer.
I think situation is same every where. Retailers don’t have any watch at the moment but i have read few comments saying that they have purchased after being on wait list of ADs
First Rolex I ever found interesting enough to pursue was the z-blue Milgauss. I talked to my AD last December and waited and waited and waited some more.Then mid- May I went out of state to three other ADs, then in June went to two others in yet another state. In total, six ADs in three different states. I got a call from an SA from one of the three I visited in May called me six weeks later. She was competing with seven other SAs in her shop, yet she got it for me in six weeks.
Had you bought a lot of inventory from any of those shops previously to buying that one? I ask because I've been hearing that AD's won't even put you on a waiting list unless you've already bought a lot from them before. I'd love to buy a brand new unworn one with papers and everything. Virgin for lack of a better term
@@richardsanchez9190 I got my z-blue Milgauss in July and my Polar Exp II in November from that AD. I hadn't even communicated with or visited them till May of 2021. Only things I bought from them are those two watches. I also got a Batman on jubilee from another AD. Briefly visited them end of June, asked for a Pepsi or Polar. In late July or early August I asked for the Batman on jubilee, got the call for it end of Sept. Only thing I bought from them too. Both are out of state for me, two different states. I know my situation is out of the norm, but I did the legwork, visited in person, showed genuine interest in watches, and didn't act like I deserved to jump in front of others to get these items which are in incredibly high demand. Just turned out for me.
@@richardsanchez9190 How could you have bought a lot from them before if they won't put you on a waiting list unless you have bought a lot from them before?
It seems so cringey and corny to me you gotta "build a relationship" with a dealer in order to buy one...wtf is that? I'm here to buy a very expensive watch do you have it or not? Wtf..."we have to be friends first" is Rolex lowkey trying to turn into a cult?
Hey Agab! If there are an authorized dealer than you should be good! Just make sure they are authorized as you want to trust the person your buying from. The Rolex stores will most likely just add you to a waiting list, especially if it is a hot watch.
Ok so, I dont think I've ever even seen a Rolex in person. Having said that I'd like to buy one for my son, and I'm talking for when he graduates college or something. Something to be held long term and passed down. Like an heirloom. But I've been hearing that you almost cant even get in the door to buy one unless you've already spent thousands building up a history with a dealer. Is this true? Ideally I want the sea dweller 126603. Brand new, in the box, unworn, with papers. So straight from the factory to the AD to me. How likely am I to get one. Keep in mind, I dont mind waiting. I'd need likely a couple years to come up with the roughly 18K price tag I saw.
I got one a few days ago. Walked in the dealer, asked for one and they happened to have on on stock which was probably pure luck. This bla bla about building relations with dealers and waiting lists etc is just bla in my opinion. Waiting lists do not exist they are just there to keep you coming back. Dealers are not allowed to advertise what they have in stock and have to sell retail over the counter. So if you are looking for a watch, walk in and ask for any stainless sports watch they will most likely not sell you one as they think you are a watch flipper. The reason I bought one is pretty similar to yours, I got some money from my parents, didn't want to just put it in the bank but wanted to buy something something of value. 20 years ago when I graduated I got a watch as a present from them, that I still wear to today. The Seadweller I bought will probably go down to my kids later as well. One thing to note is that a seadweller is quite big, not only the size of the bezel but also the thickness due to it being a diving watc. It wears heavy on the wrist. I have 8 inch wrist circumference so can take the size but if you are buying something for your son later in the future it's a bit of a gamble size wise. The 18K you are referring to is the price on the gray market, from a dealer you are talking just over 12K.
Thankyou for the information unfortunately every authorized retailer i have contacted says that their existing customers are already on wait for past atleast 2 years. Lost hope of getting one
Richard, if your son is 3 years old then I'd say you have an excellent chance of getting him the watch for his college graduation as it will probably take that long to get one from an AD.
I almost pulled the trigger on an AirKing at my local AD 2 years ago but it was just too big on my small wrist. Kinda regret it now as they went up from $6,200 to $9,000 on the grey market. The second they come out with a 36mm though I’m running back to grab one.
Perhaps a silly question but do owners ever worry about being mugged in the street. I live in central london. Do you ever feel anxious knowing your multi thousand pound/dollar watch is on show and so easily robbed? Just wondering
Somebody I know nearly got mugged on NYC Subway for it. But he was wearing short sleeves to work that day. Don't show it off in public Also, a multi thousand dollar watch would only be worn at special occasions
@@aquarius4953 That's not what I said at all. I'm saying don't be a walking advertisement for people to mug you. Wear it out at work or events, not openly when you're shopping in the supermarket
1 thing I can't get my head around. If I want an item but can't get hold of one due to supply there is NO CHANCE I am paying the same price second hand let alone more! Just get a different model. I think the only people who pay more than RRP are people with WAY TOO MUCH money...if you have too much money and want to spend it on nonsense, I can give you my details and you can just send me money whenever you want.
1966, nam, i was issued a army wrist watch and a rifle. Watches became hard to get. Gave mine to a friend that had a long tour left. I see e-bay prices are very high, i cant imaging a grunt ever selling his, the greedy, grieving, families must put it on line.
People who buy Rolex watches just want other people to notice them. They must be so lonely.....It is sad but true.... The ROLEX BRAND knows this very well....
Rolex the most overhyped brand there is. Exclusive???? They produce 1000000 pieces a year. Grand Seiko and Zenith produce 35000 pieces a year. Both are technical better and are better time keepers. But most of the people are living in LALA land. They pay over 10K-12K for a sport watch, that cost 2K to produce. The rest of the money is spend on marketing and the overhyped AD stores. Rolex dump the watches self on the grey market. I sold my Sub years ago and i'm glad with my Zenith and two Grand Seiko's.
Okay? Can yo uh tell me what makes a Rolex a watch worth loosing body parts? Have you looked at what other well known brands offer? If you really want a super nice watch that won't break the bank. Then walk away from the over priced Rolex and get a Omega, Breitling, Zenith, heck many outstanding brands that offer way more watch for far less funds.
@@Patriot-rising I guess you haven’t checked the prices on all the other brands you mentioned, oh if you don’t know what a figure of speech is then I don’t know what to tell you buddy.
I’ll get my Rolex eventually. I’m in no rush. Money needs to be saved and bills need to be paid first.
Waiting for it makes it more special. You’ll appreciate it much more.
just got my first one after waiting for 7 years. worth the wait
If you start with reducing your bills to zero, you’ll get that Rolex next month!
Why do you need rolex that much?

I got one a few days ago. Walked in the dealer, asked for one and they happened to have on on stock which was probably pure luck. This bla bla about building relations with dealers and waiting lists etc is just bla in my opinion. Waiting lists do not exist they are just there to keep you coming back. Dealers are not allowed to advertise what they have in stock and have to sell retail over the counter. So if you are looking for a watch, walk in and ask for any stainless sports watch they will most likely not sell you one as they think you are a watch flipper. The reason I bought one is pretty similar to yours, I got some money from my parents, didn't want to just put it in the bank but wanted to buy something something of value. 20 years ago when I graduated I got a watch as a present from them, that I still wear to today. The Seadweller I bought will probably go down to my kids later as well. One thing to note is that a seadweller is quite big, not only the size of the bezel but also the thickness due to it being a diving watc. It wears heavy on the wrist. I have 8 inch wrist circumference so can take the size but if you are buying something for your son later in the future it's a bit of a gamble size wise. The 18K you are referring to is the price on the gray market, from a dealer you are talking just over 12K.
@@BertM3 thanks for the info. I'm gonna look into it at a local AD
Thankyou for the information unfortunately every authorized retailer i have contacted says that their existing customers are already on wait for past atleast 2 years. Lost hope of getting one
Richard, if your son is 3 years old then I'd say you have an excellent chance of getting him the watch for his college graduation as it will probably take that long to get one from an AD.
I must have a Presidential before I leave this earth
Thank ü Bob's! 🌹🐾🐯📿🌺🌸🌊
When my net worth exceeds 1million I am going to reward myself with a $10k Rolex.
My Net worth is sitting at about -$200,000 and I still love collecting Rolex (:

I almost pulled the trigger on an AirKing at my local AD 2 years ago but it was just too big on my small wrist. Kinda regret it now as they went up from $6,200 to $9,000 on the grey market. The second they come out with a 36mm though I’m running back to grab one.
Hey Jonas, that is a bummer, but you defintely want to perfect watch for yourself. It will be worth the wait!
Perhaps a silly question but do owners ever worry about being mugged in the street. I live in central london. Do you ever feel anxious knowing your multi thousand pound/dollar watch is on show and so easily robbed? Just wondering
I don't wear mine without wearing my p365 9mm. But I'm in the states. I suggest OC spray and asp baton.
Somebody I know nearly got mugged on NYC Subway for it. But he was wearing short sleeves to work that day. Don't show it off in public
Also, a multi thousand dollar watch would only be worn at special occasions
@@Nootlest Yes, buy it, put it inside a drawer and forget it.
@@aquarius4953 That's not what I said at all. I'm saying don't be a walking advertisement for people to mug you. Wear it out at work or events, not openly when you're shopping in the supermarket
Never even crosses my mind
After watching this video, I will be buying my first Rolex from you guys!
Did you ever buy from Bob's Watches?
Why am i here i am broke af
1 thing I can't get my head around. If I want an item but can't get hold of one due to supply there is NO CHANCE I am paying the same price second hand let alone more! Just get a different model. I think the only people who pay more than RRP are people with WAY TOO MUCH money...if you have too much money and want to spend it on nonsense, I can give you my details and you can just send me money whenever you want.
I bought my 1st Rolex off some dude named Leo down Michigan Ave. Its prolly legit, LOL
First thing to do: find an AD to go down on
Or you can win the Rolex 24.
I’m good waiting. I find the ridiculous suck up videos are seriously the people who are spoiling the market.
Never by from traders buy at market value

1966, nam, i was issued a army wrist watch and a rifle. Watches became hard to get. Gave mine to a friend that had a long tour left. I see e-bay prices are very high, i cant imaging a grunt ever selling his, the greedy, grieving, families must put it on line.
People who buy Rolex watches just want other people to notice them. They must be so lonely.....It is sad but true.... The ROLEX BRAND knows this very well....
Rolex the most overhyped brand there is. Exclusive???? They produce 1000000 pieces a year. Grand Seiko and Zenith produce 35000 pieces a year. Both are technical better and are better time keepers. But most of the people are living in LALA land. They pay over 10K-12K for a sport watch, that cost 2K to produce. The rest of the money is spend on marketing and the overhyped AD stores. Rolex dump the watches self on the grey market. I sold my Sub years ago and i'm glad with my Zenith and two Grand Seiko's.
I want 40$ tennis shoes and a rolex
Who tf would dive with a Rolex 😂
Buying from an AD ?? Rolex , all shops are empty, listing 7 years full
How to buy any other watch brand:
“Hey, can I buy this?” “Sure! Let me ring you up!”
I can’t afford one but I would cut one of my pinky’s off or maybe a middle finger for a datejust or a submarine.
Okay? Can yo uh tell me what makes a Rolex a watch worth loosing body parts? Have you looked at what other well known brands offer? If you really want a super nice watch that won't break the bank. Then walk away from the over priced Rolex and get a Omega, Breitling, Zenith, heck many outstanding brands that offer way more watch for far less funds.
@@Patriot-rising I guess you haven’t checked the prices on all the other brands you mentioned, oh if you don’t know what a figure of speech is then I don’t know what to tell you buddy.
