I’m not trying to sound cringe lmao, but I really appreciate how close you are with your viewers. The fact that you take the time to reply to everyone makes me want to deal with you, even if it costs me extra since I live far away lol Also, since you will be doing RUclips Live, you should allow viewers to send gifts in the settings or somehow its a win-win for everyone an a chance for ppl who can’t buy watches but like yr videos to support, thanks peter.
Appreciate this tremendously! I genuinely try when making these videos, information, working on stuff, calls etc I’m a man for the people especially the ones that have been getting screwed over the last few years! Also as for the live I’m not sure I can do that until I hit a certain amount of hours I wouldn’t ask for it, but if someone wanted to send something that’s great but you’ll never see me asking you guys for anything watching is more than enough!
I got a sub date a few years back from an AD and have come to notice a fine white fiber floating around on my dial. Its driving me insane but the only option is to send it in un warranty to have it removed and the wait who knows how long for my watch to return. Not to mention the last time I sent a different Rolex to Rolex to be serviced with notes saying, "DO NOT POLISH CASE/BRACELET ETC." and they accidentally polished the case and called to tell me they're sorry.
It’s crazy sometimes they just get too busy and disregard some things I’ve had hands changed dials changed etc all at service centers because the old ones didn’t “meet their standards” it is what it is we will all live but it suck’s for sure
Peter, I wouldn’t send the Explorer at 7:30 back! That one defect on this one watch, triples the value! The only watch out of 1.25 million to have this defect.
Buy and enjoy your watches people they are not investments! £1k in 1968 would be worth £40k if invested in UK property or £50k in the S&P 500. Great work Pete
thank you, sometimes it doesn't help honestly but in the end id rather people see exactly how I act so when someone does deal with me they already know how & who I am !
@@killsbugsfastreallfastnot giving excuses . AF did a serious Dirt Bag move . But he is truly a good dude when he’s clean & sober n doing the right thing. He did everything by the book with TPG but soon as he got off parole and wasn’t being held accountable anymore . Then moved to LA where everything is 5X the price . He did that buy back program and kept his word to everyone . Lost around $1.6M doing that . And then the major correction hit. No one was buying , everyone was wanting to sell… And he started “Borrowing from Peter ( NOT THIS PETER 👆🏼😂) to pay Paul ( Not Paul Thorpe 😂) And then he probably used one consignees watch. Probably told them it hadn’t sold yet when it did , then paid them back , then did it again with like 2-3 ppl , maybe paid 2 out of 3 .. then did it again with 5-10 watches , maybe paid back 6-7 and so on and son and before you know it it snowballed, he starts drinking 24/7 knowing he messed up, knowing it’s getting out of hand . Plus drugs , then being miserable & lonely , starts paying for prostitutes . And just went down hill . Plus he had to keep up appearances and make everything seem normal so more watches kept coming in. Probably told himself over and over he’d pay it back etc etc . Probably believed it too ! If he would’ve just went to a damn meeting , maybe even rehab for 60 days before he started using people’s stuff to leverage the business , payroll, his lifestyle . 🤦🏻♂️. Even if he would’ve stopped at sound $1M or under and went to rehab or something and sold some things off , paintings , blow out sales of merch , maybe 3-5% of all profits being allocated straight to a secured account to repay it .. i believe if he could’ve stopped , asked for help before it snowballed . Especially if he would’ve got clean , and stopped once he hit the $1M mark . He probably could’ve fixed it , maybe even quietly . Hell I’m surprised he didn’t insure everything at 20-30% higher and had a robber staged for an insurance payout 😂😂😂 (Possibly for the 2nd time 😬 , Marco did get robbed in LA for over $1M in watches with that Asian dude . But idk back then they were doing really well . They were bringing in $30M in revenue already being only a 5 yr old company, with 2 owners and like 7 employees - then became 11 employees .

And with a movie deal and his life rights he could possibly make that millions , then plus a book and art too . He could make millions and pay that back and have a nice nest egg to start over 🤷🏻♂️
As you said people are greedy. If they want to sell it privately they have all the Hassle of advertising it and there is a lot of Time wasters out there. Sell it to someone like you and they will give you the money ASAP.
I kid you not. I bought a YG 40mm DD a few months ago. Brand new from an AD. There was a tiny PUBE stuck on the 28 on the date wheel. Literally in the paint. Insane.
My first blue sub two tone was a misprint, the Y on the word oyster wasn’t completely printed. Rolex fixed it but knowing what I know now I should have kept it.
No, customers who purchase a watch at a fair price could minimize their loss I tell people all the time I can’t pay you what I sold it for because how would I make money. Only some watches I can buy back for the exact price in some occasions. If your loss is 10-20% over two years, you basically rented the watch.. you wore and enjoyed a timepiece for a minimal loss. When you get crushed on purchase price you lose 50%+ which is insane😂
look in the tip of the Mercedes hand, there's a small black curl from the black hand coating that dried into the Lume its one of those things once you see it you can't unsee it!
@Peterpic okay that little squiggly looking spec, thanks for clarifying. On a side note I have an antique circa 1960's era gold automatic Corum I'm considering selling and also a Tourneau qurtz with a white dial. Interested?
Peter-ski!!! good stuff. start doing some kind off sales via coupons for your subscribers . something like CRM doing. each user can buy x amount of 1$ coupon and winner takes watch. this will sell your pieces which does not sell easily..... take care you watch guy you!
Funny enough I’ve had old vintage ad tees designed for the longest time I was thinking of doing releases and giving away a specific piece that’s tied to the design!
Honestly anything GMT you’re doing ok, explorers & subs you can make a little something, presidents with colored dials Daytonas on oysterflex with some dials etc it’s a very fine line
also if it was that humid to reliquify coating the dial print or something else would have damage but I believe it happened when applying the Lume someone scraped too hard at rolex.
With this mentality maaan you will make it huge.. really appreciate the honesty and clean work Gets you the best kind of money plus an outstanding name and reputation, all respect to you
For this definitely not, it’s insane it’s a microscopic particle but once I saw it I physically couldn’t unsee it and I knew if I sold it to another person they’d see it and freak out it just looked like a dirty hour hand!
@@Peterpic damn that’s low. You might be right tho. I want to buy one but a 2-3k loss in a year or so it’s not very fun. They should have made it more different from the 116710ln

Wow someone who flips watches and has watchmaking skills, respect. If you expand to the point where you need more watchmakers I’d be glad to help.
long term goal is to open a service center! so maybe as I grow there will be a full on need !
i am guessing it was fine during QC, and during a temperature change or humidity change or a combo of both, it curled and flaked off.
very possible however when final casing happens they definitely should've caught it!
