    I think I’ve nailed my perfect 3-watch collection: the Rolex 14060M (2011), Cartier Santos Large with the blue dial, and the Tudor Black Bay GMT Pepsi. One for everyday wear, dress watch and travel watch. What do you reckon? 💪 😌 All the best ❤

    I think it was unfair of you to use the picture of The Honest Watch Dealer when referring to grey market dealers who promote possible discontinuation of certain model as to build the hype. The reason I say this is because The Honest Watch Dealer doesn’t do this and specifically tells people to not buy into the discontinuation hype. I guess it’s clickbait which gets you additional views so I can see why you my have chosen to use that picture but perhaps you could have used a picture on someone who actually does what you’re saying some grey market dealers do rather than a picture of one who specifically doesn’t.

    • @talkingtimepieceswithtony
      @talkingtimepieceswithtony  10 месяцев назад +8

      Yeah. Clickbait. 😂 dude, he was just as bad as everyone else about the so called discontinuation of the Pepsi, as well as other hyped models. I don’t have anything against him, but he is no different than all of the other grey market dealers. He’s in the business of selling watches. I would have been fine with your comment until you said clickbait. I don’t need his photo to get the views I have. In fact I’ll most likely get less views because of it.

    Its so sad for the hobby though 😶

  • @wristopia4101

    I know what you mean about reading the room, but I would still never say a nickname!
    I know for a fact Rolex do not like it (but they love it re. Tudor).
    When I picked up my Explorer 40 recently, the new young guy said "Submariner No Date", but I still kept my decorum lol.
    He was fantastic, super cool, addictively enthusiastic, and we had a great chat that nearly got me a parking ticket! but other older staff were in earshot and its just not a good idea to get drawn in IMO.
    Have a plan and stick to it ; )
    When other customers come into an AD and talk bad it sounds so wrong, and I have heard enough bad behaviour that staff talk about afterward to know you should never do it.
    Being cool is sometimes putting respect before being cool if you know what I mean.
    Once you start letting your guard down its a slippery slope.

    Here’s a question you probably can answer (if you fly to Switzerland). Is it true that Rolex is building a new factory to make 2,000,000 watches a year? Higher volume and watches priced at $50,000 doesn’t align. Patek makes ~60,000 watches a year, right? Maybe it isn’t just the hands on work that limits this volume, maybe consumer wallets are a factor too?

    Many RUclips grey market channels that hype watches at inflated prices have seen a large drop in viewership of their channels. I think collectors realize that these channels' excessive practices did put the fear of "buy now before the price goes up" [FOMO] into their viewers. Now that collectors understand we were being treated as "lollipop suckers", we have moved on to other channels like Talking Timepieces with Tony for our watch knowledge.
