I love rolex. It’s my favorite brand next to Patek and audemars. I’ve got a gmt pepsi as well as a Batman and I love them and wouldn’t trade them for the world.
You have a $10 watch that keeps better time than a watch costing hundreds of thousands of times as much. Even if you bought a modern day Rolex. *Rolex owners: "YoU DoNt GeT iT."* Um....yeah I do. There are some tulips I'd like to sell you.
Anonymous a Rolex isn’t something you buy to simply keep the time, it’s a medal on your wrist which reminds you of how far you’ve gotten, the struggles, and your overall succes. It’s something you buy for yourself when you’ve accomplished something truly unique and spectacular. That’s why people buy rolexes. And you just have to be into watches, AP, Patek, Jaeger, I could go on all day.
Rolex watches are not the best or most accurate watches. They are really mid tier luxury. Rolex use to be the Craftsmen tools of watches for the everyday man before 1980. However, they are the best all around watches in regards to a combination of luxury, utility, durability, prominence, design, & build quality. What makes Rolex collectible is limited production, and the small variations between Rolex models. What these collectors look for is vintage, original, rarity, unpolished in working condition. What adds to where Rolex is as a brand is marketing. Just about every Hollywood movie, no matter how wealthy or blue collar a character is portrayed. You will find a Rolex on a wrist of that character. If you want a more accurate watch there's Grand Seiko. If you want to go one step up from Rolex in terms of heritage/luxury, there's Jaeger LeCoultre. If you want to go to the pinnacle of watches, there's Patek Philippe. If you want Rolex quality (for some arguably a better brand) with an affordable price, look into Omega (my go to watch is the Speedmaster. first watch worn on the moon NASA issued watches).

That radium-226 lumed Rolex wouldn't be of concern. You can wear it, and be just fine. Just don't open it and intentionally ingest or inhale the lume. Using the inverse square law, when you move away from it, the radiation flux decreases exponentially. Also, he had a pretty cheap dosimeter. A Ludlum model 12 or an Inspector USB Geiger-Müller counter would be far better! Also, always measure in counts/minute or counts/second, AKA CPM or CPS, NOT μSv/h or mR/h, UNLESS it's calibrated to the same radionuclide that your source is that you're measuring! I see this happen far too much. I collect radioactive sources, and watches are just one of them. No, I don't have a Rolex yet. I'd rather have a Patek Phillipe, with radium of course. But, I doubt that I could ever afford one or the other anyway. So, yeah. Don't scrap your radium watches! Sell them, if you're that concerned.
If you're $10,000 watch is indistinguishable from a Chinese copy.... And if you have to take it to the store to validated and see if it's original or not..... Mmmhhh maybe you pay too much
I want to know prices🤷♀️it's annoying when people act like money is no big deal to them, but they're at an event that's all about consumerism and luxury goods
They are beyond Rolex. Rolex is mid tier luxury compared to what Rap artists are wearing. Check out Hodinkee RUclips channel you'll see Praz a serious & respected watch collector.
800$ is a drop in the ocean compared to the money they’ve spent on their collections, and an even smaller drop in the ocean compared to the assets they own altogether. They’re passionate about collecting vintage timepieces the same as some are passionate about collecting vintage cars. Do people drive their collector cars everyday? No.
I used to complain about not being able to afford a watch, until I met the man with no arms.
Thats really deep. also changed my prespective, thanks for sharing.
Looks like a good opportunity for a thief. They may all be “friends,” but who’s watching the door?
BELL TUNNEL I thought the same , you smart enough you can switch a replica and leave with the real one .
Invite only and 850 ticket price . thieves wouldn't even hear about it . having said that never trust a slippery Asian ;-)
Some people are always thinking about stealing
You can just walk off of one of those watches easy there’s so many of them
This feels so awkward to watch, feels like I'm watching two robots host a show
Um no. They did a good job. If you can do better, then put up your own video.
@@bigmacdaddy1234 It's an opinion. Do you have to be a chef to say you don't like the food?
I would never leave my rolex watch laying on a table surrounded by hundreds of people.
You've clearly never been on a Watch lovers GTG :)
@@WatchGeek correct.

Wonderful to see such trust amongst gentlemen .
And love for time pieces . Creative regards B20
I had a 'rolodex' joke but nobody here is old enough to know what that is. 😆 😂
Um....a $500,000 watch? Wow...and I thought trying on a $15,000 Rolex was cool. Now, as a Pepsi collector myself....I'd like the Pepsi Rolex...

Not a Rolex fanboy & dont own one, but your comment makes it quite obvious you really dont get it.

None are messing but someone has done a switcheroo with a fake
How come the Pontiff were not invited?
You guys just wanted to use the word "sexpile".
They used it right tho
People could steal one or two of those way too easily
Skyler you don’t steal st this place and get away with it. Bid a very tight community. Getting busted selling a stolen watch is beyond low
Roger Alvarado you’d be surprised
Bunch of awkward characters in there, definitely a unique group of special invites.

Agreed! However, I like radium watches! I collect them. I don't wear them a lot, even though the dose is actually pretty low.
Phuckers!
So says a person with nary a Rolex on his wrist.

Beanie babies for rich guys.
swiss made watch, you pay 80% brand name and 20% for the watch.
the watcher they’re an investment tbh, they go up in price after a while and you get more money than what you started with.
i was there. im not buying anything. just hangout and having good time. if you new, just buy vostok. it have same quality
Jbyrd lottery doesn't understand what happened to my invite 🤔 I would love to attend this event..... just so I could get up and leave 🤫🤫🤫
Very nice
I just want to know how someone doesn't take another identical watch home compared to theirs
Pickpocket
dream.
Rolex bought their watch back.
Not viewing, just here to inflate my ego by mocking theirs.
Not very secret anymore huh
How do you prove that one is yours when you leave?
I would not give my vintage GS even for any Rolex.Seiko for ever.
Strange choice in words but after watching various episodes over two days, I’d say strange choice in a lot of things. #weird

A GMT Pepsi on a lady? No way.
Wears surprisingly small.. works well as a unisex piece.
Paneristis would say “it’s more than a watch”
Pepsi fits a ladies wrist perfectly? Tfo here! Way too big
I feel poor now.
*Wears a Hublot*
If you're $10,000 watch is indistinguishable from a Chinese copy.... And if you have to take it to the store to validated and see if it's original or not..... Mmmhhh maybe you pay too much
just realised that even if one of them were at 99% discount- still wouldnt be able to afford one XD :/
