Learned a lot from this vid. The vintage watch world is a totally diff. world, that a Richard Mille afffecionado will never understand it's beauty... Also, keep up the Adam signature straight outta bed crinkled stained shirts... it adds personality and makes you the complete vintage package brother... 😁🤘
Great video! I especially enjoyed the segment on restoring old watches. I agree that it’s important to educate the public and there’s not many dealers out there willing to talk about it 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
You have become my favorite watch channel. I love learning about vintage watches. New watches are fine but they just get a little boring. Keep up the great content.
Adam, thank you so much for your videos. They're excellent; I'm just discovering them now. One thing in this video, however, as a little unsettling. You mentioned that fitting a 1980s dial to a 1970s watch would be a franken-watch, but fitting a 1970s dial to a 1970s watch - to bring it back to the way it would have left the factory - is not a franken-watch. But this feels ... a little off. You'd be selling a watch that was never actually assembled by Rolex. Which I suppose is fine, if fully disclosed. But not something I would look to buy. And again: thank you for these videos. This specific aspect is something I've never heard any other dealer discuss. Thank you for bringing it to light.
No no, you must fit the dial it would have originally been born with. So if the watch would have been born with an mk1 dial, it needs to have an mk1 dial. Hope that clears up any confusion.
Hi Adam, Your video are great. I will give you a call this week. I want to buy a. vintage watch from 1970 my birth year. I hope you will have the time to speak with me.
As I understand it, they weren’t allowed to continue to produce/use on new products as of the late 1980s, which is why service hands were made with luminova. I do not believe they were required by law to replace out old tritium [already fitted in] watches, or else we would see a lot more replacement dials and hands than we do now. And many watches have gone back to Switzerland for service that were born with tritium dials and they did/do not replace the dial.
I don’t get how you guys talk about the parts as if they didn’t come from Rolex. It’s always original if it goes back to the factory and parts are replaced. Yall knit pick about nothing.
Eric is a straight also, you no how hard that is to find today ? It's like finding a honestly in air-conditioning man or antique car mechanic without even doing research or prices I ike professionals talk, love learning about collectables. NEAL APOLLO BEACH FLORIDA SEMPER FI

Exactly my point Michael! Transparency is the most important thing!
Listening to your expertise is invaluable Adam. Keep up the excellent content.
Finally the best part of Menta in front of the camera. We love u Jordan!
I’ve been telling him… ❤❤
When an expert looks at your vintage watches, smiles and then immediately hands them back to you. That's what happened to watch Eric 😂
Happy to see you making video’s, I enjoy the videos and learn vintage Rolex at the same time.
🙏
Another great one Adam! We all got lucky buying and selling the last few years but you are right on about losing money on watches.
Thanks Adam
The watch world needs your videos
I appreciate that! There is definitely more to come, stay tuned!

There's a Grey Sheet for watches 👍

Once a cucumber, never a pickle again.
Does anyone else beside me think that Adam and Marco Niccolini from TPG is the same guy?
Was it possible for Rolex to replace just the hands with luminovas? I thought they were forced by Swiss law to replace all tritium during service
As I understand it, they weren’t allowed to continue to produce/use on new products as of the late 1980s, which is why service hands were made with luminova. I do not believe they were required by law to replace out old tritium [already fitted in] watches, or else we would see a lot more replacement dials and hands than we do now.
