Picking over George’s “carcass” he won’t answer the CEO-for-a-day question because he wants to be TAG’s CEO and doesn’t dare say so in case he he ruins his chances of actually doing it! 😆😂🤣
George simply didn't want to piss off a potential future relationship. It was a cop-out. Life is hard and challenging at the top of all professions yet customers need to be heard.
Just started watching you guys this week. I got into watches this month by commemorating the birth of my son with a tudor blackbay 41 with a black face and navy blue bezel. I know have been binge watching the podcast. I wish I could have gotten a Bamford 6900 G-shock
PS - George either HAS to sit closer or get a Bluetooth mic that attached to his shirt. If we set Vol for the others, he’s too quiet; set for him and you’re all screaming.
They’ve added Marcus’s skull to the letterhead that comes with merch purchases, so they’re getting there! 👍 New stickers and logo would be a good move.
George cannot. Professionally. Trash another watch CEO, when his CV would make him a real contender for a CEO opening. Nothing against the other lads (they could lead a creative department) but makes sense his position and diplomatic approach since he has the experience and pedigree. Love you all, thank you for the awesome content. Bought a 39mm Explorer thanks to Adrian and his damn NATOs.
Adrian, get it together man. While most watch makers are making slimmer and smaller case sizes, Omega decides to drop this behemoth of a watch on us. 45.5mm case size with a thickness of 17.4mm. Hard pass. Just fix the Seamaster 300M and PO's already so we can stop waiting in the Crown's waitlist's.
@Barkandjack I’d go with a vintage GP, either a gyromatic or a manual wind gold dress watch. Vintage GP’s ooze old world charm and they are genuinely interesting and can be easily had in your price range. A tank or similar is too predictable for CEO Boring but a vintage GP manages to be enchanting yet boring at the same time.
Oh heck. Cant believe I missed the live stream AGAIN! For what it's worth, I'm watching this from Devon wearing MY Mark XX WITH the grey NATO B&J strap, as I'm waiting on Watchfinder to supply extra links for the bracelet. This NATO is so comfy, it may just stay on now. ❤
Did Adrian say you’re going to be in Dubai for Watch Week 16-20 Nov? Flying in from the US - with AET shirts. If you’re hosting an event broadcast the where/when.
If I were omega CEO for a day.... To me, Omega watches come across as toys. They need to stop making homage watches with all sorts of text, engraving, pictures etc on them. Nice that the Speedmaster went to the moon, but it should not say "moonwatch" on it, the original that went to the moon was a tool watch without stupid engravings. It didn't have a moon in the face or the back. The Bond watch, named after a fictional character ffs, should have no reference to Bond on it, we are not children! In contrast, Rolex Explorer was involved in expeditions to Everest, but it stays true to the original, it doesn't have an engraving of the mountain on the case back or homage dates and text on it. The Daytona doesn't have Paul Newman's visage on the case back. That is a watch for an adult to wear...
guys, guys, guys.... I don't think everyone wants a slim smaller lighter watch.. some people want half a kilo of gold wrapped round their wrist and want to know there is a piece of mechanical artwork beating away on the wrist.. Small watches are cool, yes there is a sheep 🐑 thing going where all of a sudden things like "smaller, lighter, thinner no date" is what people want... I don't think they do.. not at all, some people want 100 complications and seven layers to the case and movement.. hehe.. of course, just my opinion.. great chat again.. keep going.
The weight argument... Christopher Ward sells a watch head with a sellita chronometer movement at 40 grams in carbon, or 50 grams in titanium. Both for sub 2K. Now, is CW Omega? No. They're a bargain, no doubt. But they aren't Omega. And if they're delivering lightness at those prices, when 22K is daylight robbery. Make it thinner, smaller, give it a beautiful titanium case, and sell it for 5-7k.
The CEO episode was great, but the biggest question that wasn't answered was: did Marcus ended up buying a drone at 'media markt' due to their relentless advertising on your laptop 🤔
GB is the kid in school that failed the essay, out of topic, lol. Luckily he has money so his future and work conditions are assured for ever. Otherwise I fear for his abilities to survive in this cruel world.
It IS a cop out, George. You keep carrying on about the CEO, the person. The task wasn’t to criticize the person; it was to criticize the brand. You continue to miss the point.
Picking over George’s “carcass” he won’t answer the CEO-for-a-day question because he wants to be TAG’s CEO and doesn’t dare say so in case he he ruins his chances of actually doing it! 😆😂🤣
Potentially accurate
George simply didn't want to piss off a potential future relationship. It was a cop-out. Life is hard and challenging at the top of all professions yet customers need to be heard.
Just watched this and I think Andrew NAILED it with Breguet. The company should hire him to rebrand and reposition the brand. Love the passion.🔥

I didn't have time to watch live but, already bought underd0g via early access through windup NYC. 34:25

“George is too quiet”, said nobody EVER! 😂
Mayfair Georgian townhouses are a nightmare for sound on Teams. Sound gets lost in the space and double height ceilings.
big inside knowledge flex we love to see it

London event would be class. Very interested. How do we get link emailed to our inbox ?
Check our website
@Adrian aka Cpt. Boring: For the Gold-Vintage-Watch, i would recommend a vintage King Seiko or Grand Seiko ;)
Time to make a logo change. 4 skulls! Maybe like the Queen II album cover? Top notch boys!
They’ve added Marcus’s skull to the letterhead that comes with merch purchases, so they’re getting there! 👍 New stickers and logo would be a good move.
Definitely need an AET nato and maybe a cap and coffee mug, too (sorry Adrian).That will hold me until we see a watch from them.
Yes, please do an event or meet and greet or anything in Dubai! Would be my highlight of Dubai watch week
Adrian should think about a CFB Manero or Piaget triple calendar with enamel dial or maybe a reverso or vintage VC.
Hell yes to London!!
My opinion on the Baltic Hermetique is that it's a cool watch, but i wish it had a normal crown :D
George cannot. Professionally. Trash another watch CEO, when his CV would make him a real contender for a CEO opening.

It wasn’t about trashing another brand,
It was the constructive, practical steps you’d take if you had the chance 🫶🏼
Thank you for the entertaining episode! 👏 Cheers
George still ducking a simple question. No need to criticise existing CEOs, just say I’d go in this direction for whatever brand. Poor form.
Looking forward to you guys coming to Dubai - see you soon!

Hard pass. Just fix the Seamaster 300M and PO's already so we can stop waiting in the Crown's waitlist's.
Definitely, it would be awesome in Dubai!!!
Yes to a live AET!
Need a segment on watches with the best luminescence
I would love to see an episode about lume! Who's doing it well, who isn't. Examples of some killer lume jobs!
@Barkandjack I’d go with a vintage GP, either a gyromatic or a manual wind gold dress watch.

Totally agree! 👌
Adrian: you might want to consider an Omega Constellation Pie Pan Grande Luxe.
Check out McGettigan's when in Dubai. While there, I had a 90 minute conversation with a Russian dude.....and I don't speak any Russian. Good times.
I am late to this session. Watching in Banff, Canada!
Oh heck. Cant believe I missed the live stream AGAIN!

Team Boring runs Dubai!
Thrilled with my Unimatic Venice Edition

Well said. Omegas branding is just cheesy. 😆
If I could be CEO for one day I would take over Bamford and steal one Snoopy for myself and run.
Grab 1 of the wall clocks for me - anything but the Bell & Ross, please.
Make a carbon Monaco for me, please
@adrain Universal geneve ellipse ! Genta designed watch, that Patek stole design for
Adrian a vintage Hamilton might help

Adrian maybe a Lorier Zephyr might do the trick

They already offer the PO in a full Ti 43mm for like $8k, so if you don’t care about the GMT…it’s an option.
Lol, Seaswatch in Grey bioceramic at $2200. Problem solved 😂😂😂
The CEO episode was great, but the biggest question that wasn't answered was: did Marcus ended up buying a drone at 'media markt' due to their relentless advertising on your laptop 🤔
Baltic or underdog? Honestly neither.
I wish George would be Tag's CEO 👏👏👏
Adrian, can get some pretty awesome Rolex Cellinis between 4 and 7k
Adrian should go vintage Omega seamaster deville, Gold with a quality black or brown alligator strap👌💥
Who’s Marcus? Is he new?
He’s the man
Marcus makes the magic happen! 🎥 @abouteffingtime
@@AboutEffingTime ah okay, I thought that George fella was
“the man” my bad
I know not live but: Vintage Gold Watch = Rotary. Very cheap and elegant.
Dubai!? Hmm interesting!! Not too far from bkk
Blue Baltic !
Baltic for me
Baltic for sure
Baltic all the way
GB is the kid in school that failed the essay, out of topic, lol. Luckily he has money so his future and work conditions are assured for ever. Otherwise I fear for his abilities to survive in this cruel world.
And you were the kid that bitched about everyone while achieving very little? This is not how we do on this channel fella.
Underdog
Baltic
Vintage gold watch? Must de Cartier tank 🤷♂️, then again, can’t really beat a Patek calatrava
It IS a cop out, George. You keep carrying on about the CEO, the person. The task wasn’t to criticize the person; it was to criticize the brand. You continue to miss the point.
Omega have lost their ******* minds 🙄
the omega was boring,boring & boring
Baltic
