Why does Roman keep interrupting Adam? Let the man speak! He is the "rainman" of the watch world. Roman says we are going into a "normal" recession? Roman, for once stop talking your book. Please.
One of your best episodes. Really interesting discussion. It’s great to sit in on a discussion with four people who are so knowledgeable and passionate about watches.
Very interesting and enjoyable conversation between 4 experts in the watch field. Very engaging conversation about vintage watches and Sotheby's reaction to today's market prices. I was a little shocked to see Roman wearing jeans with holes and a sweatshirt to a meeting with Sotheby, but great content.
Thanks so much for your support as always, glad you enjoyed this!! How are you feeling? I hope you are on the road to recovery and starting to feel better 🙏
Beautiful watch! Very versatile with 3 strap so like getting 3 watches in one and not to mention it's one of the best looking sports watches on the market. Geneva Seal stamped movement certifying it's finished to extremely rigorous standards, I think around or under retail it is a no brainer!! 😁🙌
Always great to get a new perspective on the market, especially from an auction house as big as Sothebys. A lot of great info to be learned from this for sure. Thanks as always for your support Frank!! 😁🙌
I have a question for these auction houses. Usually how long ahead do they respond to consignment request? I’ve contacted them for months and no reply. Maybe business is too good.
Unfortunate to hear this. I would keep trying, it's possible it was due to a bug in their system or simply your inquiry slipped through the cracks. I can't speak for them but I can speak for ourselves that this happens to us to. We try to respond to everyone in a timely fashion but given the sometimes overwhelming number of inquiries we receive it can be difficult for us to keep track of everything and ensure everyone has been answered 🙏
I sat next to Rich Lopez while we were in line for the MoonSwatch earlier this year at the Houston, Tx mall. We didn't get any that day but it was cool talking to him 🙏
One more - first auction season in a long time with a few “bargains” - Phillips HK lot 1062; Patek 5110p , full set, excellent condition, $35k - buyer got a nice price for a Patek icon
Auctions have those sleeper hits that sell for way under what they should. As the market cools down now may be a great time to look at auction houses more closely for some great deals for sure!! 😁🙌
They're not to my personal taste either but I do feel the newer models they are coming out with represent some great value considering what other brands charge for similar materials and complications 😁🙌
@@PhellasCoD It's not my taste or style nor would I tell someone to rush to buy one either. But I think the brand with the newer movements is offering much better watches than in the past and I think that is certainly undeniable. Again considering what other brands sell these type of watches for using these materials, it's not a bad value if that is the type of watch someone is looking for. Now do I think it compares well to Patek Philippe, AP or VC or any other brands at the same price point, not really. But Aventi is also targeting a completely different client base. Hope this explanation makes sense 👍
@@MarcoFerranteWatches all the same. All auctions have cool watches I'm sure Sotheby will do more collaborations with them. Watch influencers will shill their auction catalog to their audiences for free
Why the heck do you only have 19k followers? That doesn't make any sense. You only have 5 full time salespeople and 4 temporary salesman fighting for on job? A salesmanager will cost you at least 100k in yearly pay to help you sell more watches. Wouldn't it be better to spend the 100k on advertising? Salesman don't cost you anything but training pay. I think you are being straight with your customers. Lucky you are selling other products then watch. Neal
I like Roman but when I here him encourage you to not panic!! I actually hear a guy who has a lot of dough invested in a depreciating asset. Roman you win some and you lose some. Pretty sure you will come out OK especially after the last 2 year bear run on watches. I am in the market for a fairly priced date just 126334. Help a brother out!!

That GMT is simply stunning!! I've never seen that one before.
One of your best episodes. Really interesting discussion. It’s great to sit in on a discussion with four people who are so knowledgeable and passionate about watches.
This is awesome to hear! So glad you enjoyed this episode and thank you for your support 😁🙌
Richard Lopez representing Ecuador!!! Un orgullo Ecuatoriano.
Awesome!! 😁🙌

Thanks Danny! Appreciate your support as always and glad you enjoyed this 😁🙌
Roman just can’t get enough of his own opinion, riveting
Couldn’t be happier to see this group talking watches. I love the real watch content so good!
We couldn't be happier to see you enjoyed this! Thank you so much for your support 😁🙌
Thank you for filming this , very interesting indeed 😎🇦🇺😎
This is so awesome to hear! Thank you so much for the kind words and your support 😁🙌

Great work Roman and Adam and the team at Southebys. Very informative and great knowledge all round. Lots of love from Australia with covid. Abs.
Thanks so much for your support as always, glad you enjoyed this!! How are you feeling? I hope you are on the road to recovery and starting to feel better 🙏
@@MarcoFerranteWatches hi Marco. Thanks for the support. I got out of hospital yesterday. Covid free and healthy.
@@abrahamwann1586 So glad to hear it!!
@@MarcoFerranteWatches thanks alot Marco. Lots of love from Australia. Abs.
Honest opinion of a 4500V black dial at or under retail?
Beautiful watch! Very versatile with 3 strap so like getting 3 watches in one and not to mention it's one of the best looking sports watches on the market. Geneva Seal stamped movement certifying it's finished to extremely rigorous standards, I think around or under retail it is a no brainer!! 😁🙌
Roman, thanks for the really informative video. Love to hear the thinking of a premier auction house and how it aligns with the market. 🔥
Did we hear much from the auction house tho?
Always great to get a new perspective on the market, especially from an auction house as big as Sothebys. A lot of great info to be learned from this for sure. Thanks as always for your support Frank!! 😁🙌
@@MarcoFerranteWatches My pleasure as always!
And congrats to Sothebys on an excellent season
Absolutely! Well deserve success for a great auction house 😁🙌

That watch from Mexico was Carlos Slim's watch.
Roman, please make this a regular thing. So interesting. Think about doing the other auction houses as well please.
Awesome to hear this and definitely will try to! Glad you enjoyed this and thank you for your support 😁🙌
Question. How long had Roman been in the business?
Good to see that ex Liverpool and England player John Barnes is still working
Why are you wearing two watches? What is that on your right hand
I sat next to Rich Lopez while we were in line for the MoonSwatch earlier this year at the Houston, Tx mall. We didn't get any that day but it was cool talking to him 🙏
That's awesome!! 😁🙌

you can tell on mute if you're watching this channel for the first time which guys sell vintages, and which guys are grey market dealers.
Nice episode - really interesting to get your perspective on auctions
This is awesome to hear this!! Thanks so much for your support 😁🙌
Those Aventi watches are hideous
They're not to my personal taste either but I do feel the newer models they are coming out with represent some great value considering what other brands charge for similar materials and complications 😁🙌
@@MarcoFerranteWatches come on Marco. I understand these are your employers but the watch is a crime to horology

When is the Brick Watch review coming? 😫
Stay tuned we got an upcoming video that you won't want to miss 👀
@@MarcoFerranteWatches I can't wait lol
I just love these type of videos
This is awesome to hear! Thank you for your support 😁🙌
I love to see Roman dismissing the fact that we are about to enter one of the worst recessions the economy has ever seen
part of the business is taking consignment fees for clients, so more selling isn't neccasarily a bad thing.
That was awesome 👌🏻
Awesome to hear this!! Glad you enjoyed 😁🙌
Roman gets where water couldn't 👊
Haha that's great 😂🙌
20:05 his ego is bigger than my biceps.
Let's see should I sell my $50,00 watch or not eat?
lol. Roman selling Sotheby's watches for them
Haha no just nice to showcase some cool and different watches and get the perspective of other experts in the industry 😁🙌
@@MarcoFerranteWatches all the same. All auctions have cool watches
I'm sure Sotheby will do more collaborations with them. Watch influencers will shill their auction catalog to their audiences for free
I can’t take Roman serious right now lol why is he wearing two watches
