“She’s wearing fishnets. You know... and probably doesn’t have any panties on. That kind of evening.” Best quote from a watch unboxing video, possibly ever!
I don’t skip to certain sections. I like taking it all in.
You certainly live life to the fullest. Im not even talking about wealth either. Im more talking about just your general demeanor and the way you go about things. Just not taking things incredibly seriously and just enjoying things for what they are.
Well stated 👍
I think it's called living which reminds me, I better get started with mine..
Apart from getting another SD, must be nice to stroll around in Venice without a million tourists in shorts and flip-flops, waving their selfie-stick and blocking the streets.
Underrated comment. God that was awfully annoying when I was there, and Rome, and Florence, and and and...
Those annoying tourists helped boost the economy that the city and the country needed.
@Nigel Molesworth I admit to being a tourist, though my wife is Italian. I did not however, wear flip flops and carry a selfie stick.
@@smithtotiemsri8250 I live in Italy and it's a double edged sword.
you use, as an example, frequent air travellers getting priority over others for upgrades. however, they aren't selling those "upgrades" on to make a fast buck unlike many loyal customers who walk out the AD's door and straight to a grey dealer. this is at the expense of those who want a Rolex to treasure and have as a family heirloom.
Could this be the 1st TTWC giveaway 😂😂
A week ago I was visiting my AD. Just wanted to say hello. One of the sales ladies said oh we just got in a sea dweller, two tone.
I'm waiting for just the all SS. This is amazing, my AD already received a Rolex. A sea dweller showing up at an AD that is a 14 hour hour drive to the ocean. At least Rolex's are starting to trickle into the AD. My AD is family owned. They own over six stores. The AD does not do sale orders over the phone, no credit numbers over the phone, they do not move their watches from store to store. When a GMT comes in, it stays at that store.
If a flipper comes in from the middle east. They say no, the store only sells to locals they know. Now the odds go way way up for getting the sport watch we want.
Personally I love the theatre 🎭 and drama of how Oisin goes about buying the watch with the gifts 🎁 for the AD’s and the unboxing pairing with the wine 🍷 and cigars. He does it properly. Someone who cares about the romance of these watches and marking it as a special occasion
I love hearing you describe and show us drinks as well as the watches..keep doing what you do!
Man that is like dating a hot chick and them a hotter one calls you lol.
Or her twin sister who has a better personality calls you! 🙈
@@EyeInTheSkypaulmcmenamin God, I'm living that in real life. I'm matched with 2 hot sisters on dating apps and will be meeting them after my vaccine...
@@DarthJabba504 you literally can have your cake and eat it! Bravo 😄
@@DarthJabba504 Weak. I matched with 10 hot girls and we are going to give the vaccine to each other. They are all doctors. And so am I. I also have a golden toilet.
@miamijames:
You should always go with the ‘banker’, i.e. the one who is tried and trusted, available now, in the bank. And not worry about anyone else. ‘A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush’ as the phrase goes.
The right Rolex is like having a modern-day Faberge egg. Serves ‘almost’ no purpose but is an incredible store of wealth and status over time.
Meanwhile me very excited with my 100$ Seiko 😂
So true...
@@ryannewby447 me too guys! Heh heh...ahhhhh
It's all you really need. If you love it that is the only thing that matters.
A guy can never have too many Sea-Dwellers ! 😄👍🏼
The most easily watchable and interesting watch channel always.
Building up loyalty by flying with an airline to destinations you want to go to is a lot different to them making you fly where you don’t want just to possibly fly to New York with them one day..
I'm the 4th generation of my family to buy from the same AD. I'm not a "big shot" buying 6 watches at a time. I've still gotten the watch I wanted within a couple of months after saying that I want it. Customer loyalty comes in different forms.
Don't know if you're aware of this, but your Italian has a noticeable venetian nuance! Cheers from Rome, great content as always
Right?? It sounds so weird hearing him switch from his Irish accent to a Venetian cadence!
All well and good, but most people just want the one Sub or Explorer and don't have the wherewithal to be a loyal customer.
Fantastic video. Not just a snapshot of the watch, which is beautiful by the way, but of your life and the way you live it. Refreshing and sound analysis from a man who has a fantastic demeanor and outlook on life. You sir, have gained a new subscriber.
Please don’t ever stop making these videos! So enjoyable. Side note, I got “the Call” last week for my new Batman on Jubilee. Enjoying it beyond words. Took about 2.5 years of maintaining a very positive and enjoyable friendship with AD. Worth the wait! Cheers and please keep enjoying all of those beautiful watches!
Following your last video on the SD43 Mark I, I called the AD and asked him if he has one. He said YES. Thank you Oisin for the advice and my AD in Abu Dhabi for the the preferential care. Excellent watch. Very lucky.
Happy with my Omega. Walked in and got great service then tried on a few other watches, paid them the money and we shook hands then I walked out. Didn't need to bring them a gift and it would have felt weird if I had, that is how normal watch buying goes on. Rolex watch buying is fucking creepy. I'm not trolling, I love the channel and also love the watch.
I bought an omega from the Sydney, Martin Place boutique. It was a great experience and was treated with the upmost courtesy, and received a gift in the process. Will surely make more purchases there.
I’m collecting dive watches at the moment, would love to have the 43 mm sea dweller in my collection. I’ll try to get one from Rolex in Sydney, wish me luck otherwise is the grey market, although the premium is not as high as the Submariner.
@@robertdalio8787 I wouldn’t get my hopes up mate. A guy recently got himself a Daytona from a Sydney AD but that cost him $300,000.00 over 3 years to build up enough of a “relationship” to be considered worthy. BTW I agree about the Omega AD. Fantastic service.
Yeah I don’t buy the whole “what is poor Rolex to do” argument either
@@Gregsheppo66 @Robert Da Lio - do either of you know much about the Ryde (Sydney NSW) based EBay seller [shop] "GreysWatches"? They seem to have so many good quality luxury watches for sale
@@snsesifushreder1148 noi haven’t heard of them. Ryde is 2 suburbs from where I live. Can you give me a link please? I couldn’t find them.
My local AD is in Puerto banus marbella. There a people pulling up in there yachts that could buy every piece of jewelry and watches from the AD and wouldn’t notice that the money has left there bank account. Safe to say mere mortals like me don’t have a chance of buying anything for list price so it was off to the grey dealer who has what you want. At a premium. That’s the Rolex way 😕
Just give the other one to Lenny. Problem solved.
I’m pretty sure that I’m near the top of the “list”, as I’ve been allocated a Panda Daytona, Pepsi, etc. And I’m here to tell you, there’s no “list”, the “list” is whoever spends the most money at that particular AD, and they have that documented down to the penny. Regardless, I had a feeling this was going to happen Oisin, as my AD offered me the Red Sea-Dweller just prior to your last video, and these things tend to be shipped in bunches.
It’s the same with any business.
Buy 5 Porsches and you’ll be high up the list to get the shot at the limited edition one. My construction firm is the same, our repeat clients jump the queue because they keep me going over the tougher times.
Yeah, I'm a Porsche guy and have shared this analogy before on watch forums. Back in 2016 when the GT3 RS came out there were huge waitlists for that car. The really good stuff you need to be invited to buy based on past purchase history. It's this way with a lot of luxury goods, not just Rolex. The difference with cars though is that the dealers are less constrained on the selling price, so on hot models they will often just add a "market adjustment" of $20K to $50K or more additional cost. I'm glad the Rolex AD doesn't do that, I'd rather wait and get the watch without the markup, but with Rolex you at least have the choice - wait or go grey.
Mine came in, a surprise! Fits my 8.5 inch wrist fine. Not many reviewers have a big wrist, so I enjoyed previewing this watch in your video. (Great production qualities, by the way). I’d love to bring you a Kathryn Hall wine, a Cab from St. Helena when the wife and I head out to Venice. 😊
OMG I love this channel fine wine, whisky, cigars undoubtedly rolled on the thigh of a dusky maiden and a stroll around all my favourite places in Venice which I miss so much ( I know exactly the shop you bought the cookies from and will definitely be there whenever we get back to Venice)... Oh and watches
Well that's the best tasting notes I've ever heard for a whiskey! 😀 brilliant!
My favorite part of the video is the wine, whiskey and cigars. You should do a spotify classical music playlist for us to follow while having a drink.
Still my favorite watch channel. Got a call from my AD a few days ago. They had a 41mm green bezel sub. My dad really wanted it so we meet at the store and he got it. Guy even said they like to take care or their regulars when they get somthing in. I dont even spend much with them. Just nice people that know how to get repeat business.
Congratulations mate, it’s a beautiful watch and having both is double the joy.
Yeah the Seiko Turtle is an amazing watch for the price. I love mine... bought a Uncle Seiko waffle vintage style strap for it. I also bought a coin edged bezel for it. A little mod to make my Seiko look vintage. I find myself fought between my Speedy and Turtle. You will find yourself wearing this more I’m sure of it. Plus it’s a strap monster Congrats excellent choice
The whole AD game and preferred customer stuff is difficult.
My experience has been pretty starightforward, I bought my first Rolex last year, I had no previous history with the AD.
I rang up and enquired after an Explorer. I got told that should not be a problem and 5 days later I got a call saying they had just had a shipment in and there was one availible.
Maybe I was lucky, maybe I made my own luck by engaging with the AD, I think that asking for an Explorer (Which I love) meant I wasn't asking for the moon, so it was achievable.
Now I am a valued customer with a previous sales history so I asked if I could buy a ND Sub. I was told that the wait would be a bit longer but they would get me one. 4 months later I got the call and I now have a brand new 41mm ND Sub,
I wore my Explorer when I went to pick up the Sub and they noticed and asked how I had been getting on with it. (Also demonstrating to them that I am not a flipper)
I had a long chat with the AD told them how much I appreciated the service and asked if I could be put on the list for a GMT BLNR.
They told me that wasn't a problem and in the follow up email regarding the Sub told me they had done so.
We will have to see how long the wait might be.
At no time was it suggested that I might like to buy something else that I didn't want.
I doubt that I would have got on the list for a Sub or GMT so easily if I hadn't bought the explorer.
The people I feel sorry for are those who have saved and saved and only want to buy one watch, maybe they have always dreamed of buying a Sub. How will they ever get one?
We wont
Situation was handled like a true gentleman. Well done. Incredible watch
I just ordered the pink dial 31 datejust for my wife's retirement. I was put on the list for the new Seadweller, the AD said it looks pretty good but could not give me a timeline. I have a similar wrist size and live in the Florida Keys where it's very tropical, my wrist will swell quite a bit from leaving the air conditioned house.
A man who enjoys the fine things that life offers.
Life is for Living.....
I asked about “the list” when I picked up my SD43 and they told me it’s all up to the Rolex buyer at the AD. He saw my recent Yelp review online where I praised the service at that AD and I got the call like a week later.
Simp
Daniel, Was it a chain AD or small private. How and why did they respond to a Yelp review?
@@paulhickmott6129 they have three locations in Jacksonville. I don’t know why they look at Yelp, but I would guess it’s because of the competition they have and it’s a way for them to see customer loyalty. I was told by my salesperson there that they look at their yelp reviews, so I hopped on it. Granted, I think I’d still be waiting if I’d been trying to get a Batgirl or a stainless Daytona lol
6 minutes into your video and you have effectively nailed it. So many whiners will never get an in-demand Rolex just simply because they are not loyal customers! If I owned a Rolex AD, I’d do whatever it takes to keep loyal customers happy. It’s only logical.
I’m on a waiting list for that SD43. Not sure if the ADs here in the states expect to be brought gifts. I also have that King Turtle in black which comes with a bracelet. I modded it with different hands (kept the seconds hand), lumed bezel insert, lumed chapter ring, and took a flame, hammer and knife to remove the cyclops. On this watch it’s not as easy to remove that cyclops as what you see on RUclips. I melted the chapter ring in the process 😩so I replaced it with the lumed chapter ring. Watch looks 100 % better IMO. This king Turtle will get much more wrist time than my SLA Willard.
I haven’t watched all of your videos but I’ll search to see if you bought a Grand Seiko diver.
Congratulations on your new timepiece. Even though I can’t get one of my own, I sure enjoy watching the experience from your vantage point, awesome, thank you. The entire video is terrific. I also appreciate the common courtesy’s and appreciation you show for those that consider you to be a loyal customer. A classy act, most don’t do that, they are too cheap.
Congratulations- good on you, these moments in life to sit back and enjoy a drink, cigar and a new purchase are not as important as family and health etc but we can still enjoy a well deserved treat when we’ve worked hard “because we’re worth it” 😄
Another interesting & superb video shot in lovely Venice ... brings to mind "" Timeo Danaos et Dona Ferentes "" ... although not a Greek but an Irish man in this event. Wear in good health !
Same here... got a call from my AD after Christmas to pick up my SD43. Wasn’t super excited about it but picked it up nonetheless. Awesome piece though! It will become an instant collectible if discontinued or if the red line is gone!
I'm still waiting for the call 😬
From homeless to “twins” . I’m hoping that there’s a book coming. Enjoy. Because you certainly hove all of us a real treat when these Videos come into our lives !
I love your videos. You are right about a.d.'s and loyalty. Two years ago I bought a Daytona from my a.d. Later on, asked about a Pepsi.
Two years later, I got the call to come in that day to buy the Pepsi or, it would be sold. I first had to text a photo of myself with the Daytona and my driver's license to show I had not flipped it. I'm happy.
Of course you bring a gift, a sign of respect and thankfulness. It’s the reason I sent a Stones lithograph to my industry host for a Rolling Stones concert on the No Filter tour. Suite, food , drink... you say thanks and maybe you will be invited again. Small gestures mean a great deal, especially when others afforded such an opportunity do not. That’s how you get the call for a hard to get watch or anything else. Well done
I got mine from my AD after a bit of a wait and paid MSRP list. I don’t care that I can sell it for a 30% premium... it’s a lifetime keeper.
PS: I have a 7.2 inch wrist and sold my Sub to get this.
I have a 7.3-7.5” wrist (weather depending). How does the SD wear compared to your Sub? I am on the fence about the SD...... Congrats and wear the SD in great health!
The new 41 mm sub ?
@@renkeschulenberg1596 No, 16610LN
@@robertschmidt9584 Thanks. It wears extremely well but my other watches are 39 and 42mm; so on any given day I can wear whatever my mood dictates. But look: at 7.3-7.5”, this is an absolute no-brainer for you! Get the SD43.
I sold my 116610LN to get this model too 👍
Oisin the Rolex Cookie Monster 😎! Congratulations 🎉
No problem, just sell the one you bought in the gray market back to the gray market. Definitely get the one from your AD. I have two...the Mk1 dial, the real 50th anniversary...actual 50th production year, with no crown between "Swiss Made" (but still has the 3235 movement) and just got another one from my AD last week.
If you are loyal customer to a boutique, they will be loyal back. If they are not, change who you are loyal to. It will pay off one day.
I experienced this in everything you can buy. Wine, jewels, car, motorbike, watches,etc...
Congrats Oisín, happy for you!
I absolutely love this channel! I’m living my life in Venice vicariously through you. I live in LA. Life moves at a slower and more enjoyable pace in Italy. Recently bought my first preowned Submariner 11610 and am loving it.
Finally got mine after a six month wait. Absolutely love it. On a larger wrist it is incredibly comfortable, despite being a larger and heavier watch. I prefer the feel of it over my GMT. This is my first with a glidelock clasp, which is just fantastic. Mine is a 2022, new from an AD, but it is still the variant that has a flip lock, which I understand is being phased out as so many people take it off. I was personally surprised by how nice the matte dial is in person, more going on than the gloss black of the Sub or GMT.
After being led on about being on a list for a watch, I think the main sales lady felt bad for me and she ended up explaining to me how the list works in their store (large nationwide AD). They have two lists. One list is for “qualified” customers and the other is for unqualified. Since I had no purchase history, she told me I was on the second list. In other words, if no one wants it from the first it goes to the second. Exactly like you said.
Great info! Thanks Marc!! 👍😎
vianouche1 yes she did tell me. She said I’d have to make a purchase to become a qualified buyer as she put it. She told me this after a year of waiting fir the sky dweller in SS. There’s no formal “list.” They have a little black book each rep or manager keeps with names and preferred watches. This particular AD gets certain watches they deem hard to get, and they release the list to their reps. The reps have to pitch their clients to get the watch. Obviously, I’m not specifically a qualified buyer, I take a back seat u less no one else bites. To be clear, she didn’t tell me to bundle or do anything, she just explained to me their criteria given the supply v demand. this was already two years ago. Still no call. Don’t be naive. I’m sure there are decent smaller ADs. This is Ben Bridge in LA and they’re nationwide. I’ve heard this from other reps at other locations too. No calls from any of them and I think I made a good impression at both locations. Again, a little over two years and no calls from either. In fact, I travel a lot for work pre covid. I made it a point to stop into CA based ADs which is where I live. I’ve probably expressed my interest at 10+ locations. No calls from any. I stick to one model (usually GMT or sky dweller) and I wear my 2015 Daytona. I usually have a story as to why I want it or like it and I think I make a good impression. No calls! Don’t be naive. A lucky acquisition here or there is rare unless you have a history. In fact I have a history with one AD for a datejust I bought and it’s been 1.5 years now I’ve been waiting for a Pepsi. It’s in an expensive area and my DJ purchase is nothing for this AD/jeweler.
I put my name on “the list” for a standard ceramic sub two years ago. I got a call the two days later. Why? Because I’ve spent 6 figures at that particular AD; not because I got “lucky.” It’s the same reason, despite their awful customer service recently, I fly United; because I get business class more often than not due to my loyalty. Your explanation is SPOT ON.
good speech about the AD "loyalty" thing. I am not a "priority" customer with any ADs. Hence I am not getting my stainless steel Rolex. It's very frustrating. But I can understand. It's just business...
Over the last year or so I was offered a red line sea dweller,explorer 1,James Cameron,2 tone bluesy,blue stick dial date just jubilee,and a batgirl (already have one) turned it all down.Buy what you love leave the rest for people who really want them.
Just picked up my new sea dweller from ad yesterday, super happy, really enjoying all of your videos
I thought I was the only guy crazy enough to have backups for my backups!
Great vide, thanks....
That 41mm Rolex date just with silver dials is such a classic watch. Beautiful watch, reminds me of the 60’s. BTW every time I collect a new watch I always take gifts to the AD, very important to look after them.
Another awesome watch. This channel is becoming the channel for conniseurs, since besides fine watches some good stuff is also taught (wine, whiskey and now even fine cuban cigars). Enjoy the watch man and keep posting videos (always a pleasure)
Christmas Eve I walked into a brand new Rolex boutique in Vegas. I was at the mall ONLY to pick up an online order at the Apple store. I was the only customer in the store. I had NEVER been there before. The young guy working there didn't know me from Adam. They had their regular watches in the window and the cases inside the store. I asked if he had anything else available. And he asked which model. I replied 40mm YachtMaster in Navy dial. He responded, "let me check". He went in the back came back and said, "Here you go". I was shocked. Hehehe I held it, looked at it and admired it's beauty but felt it looked much smaller than the photos I've seen before. (I'm a Batman wearer). I said anything else you're hiding back there and he responded which model? I said the new 41mm Blusey. He said, "let me check". Sure enough he returns with one and says, "Merry Christmas". I was taken aback! Now, here I am with the Holy Grail Submariner Blusey at the very beginning of an upgrade to the model and basically he was calling my bluff. I had no choice. I plopped down my credit card and bought the damn thing!!! HAHAHAHAAA I went to the mall to spend $1200 on an IPhone and ended up spending ANOTHER $15,400 with tax on a watch I was not really looking to spend. I felt compelled because of this AD wait list exclusivity BS. So I feel your pain. You can't deny an AD offering you a piece that they would normally hold for a "long term customer".
Some people make their own luck- others whine about it. Congrats!
Enjoy your purchase.
Good story 😂 Grats!

Absolutely stunning, my SD43 MK2 is one of my favorites, wear it in the very best of health!
Two Sea Dweller 50th anniversaries?That’s a great problem to have lol! I’m loving mine.
Thanks for sharing your AD experience and the walking around footage of Venice. Very entertaining.
Great video. In the UK we don't really wear masks outside but all our Rolex ADs are firmly shut.
I do the same thing when the AD calls I bring them a nice gift, I appreciate how they treat me!! I like getting the men's perfume.
I don't know what your job is but your living life to the full, best cigars best drinks lovely watches and where you live is just total sophistication
Totally agree with your attitude to thanking the ad with a small gift. Loyalty only works both ways, it’s old school and a lost trait in modern disposable society. Relationships are valuable- and should be nurtured. Enjoy in good health 🍻
It’s a sickness. So fun seeing you sink into your watch hoarding addiction. Enjoy!
I have to agree. I love watches myself, but there is an element of mental disorder when you're always chasing after the next one.
4 minutes in and I love this video. At last someone talking sense about AD's and loyalty. So much drivel being spouted by others on this subject.
"ti sembra de MAGNARE invece di bere" ahahha troppo forte l'accento Veneto che ha preso
Love Venice and the video, decided to also go on the waiting list for a 43 SeaDweller and a 44 DeepSea as the SubMariner may take years. Wore my AirKing to show I was already a customer and had a long enough visit to learn first hand all the little features on the Dive watches but not so long as to become a pain, say 30-40 mins, the next time I go in, in a few months they will remember me, maybe I will go get a piece of jewellery polished there in the mean time - Im going to play the game, I want my Rolex'
Incredibly beautiful timepieces and very well presented thru your videos. I’m a huge fan.
Cheers 🥂
Nice video, worked in Rome and lived in Ostia. We have similar taste. I have my sd43 on Tuesday and own various vintage SM’s. I also like cuban cigars and whiskey. I am trying to find (after 20 years) other non-cuban cigars. Appreciated your advice for those similar like cohiba, libertador etc. Chears, Robin
If it were me, The first thing I’d do is loose that Seiko. The only redeeming quality of it is the “Day-Date” vs “Date” only. Then I’d put a Rubber B black strap with thin red matching accent stripe on one of those SDs. Not knocking your personal taste - glad you really like your Seiko. Another great video! And congrats!
Spell chucker wins again. My Spelling B Rong. Good catch.
Same thing happened to me in 2018 with my BLNR. The grey market one was in transit when I got the call. I had given up on the AD route after being on the list with my local AD, then owner decided to retire and close the store.
It does sound messed up but it makes sense. I’ve been on a list since October for a sub. This is someone I’m related but they barely received anything and flat out said there are others before me who have spent more and I understood. They only received 2 Daytona’s last year. I wanted one so I went and bought gray market and moved on. If the sub comes, it comes.
You sir, are a good luck charm (at least for me). Literally within two days of watching this, I got the call from my AD for this piece and picked it up today here in DC area of the U.S. Big ass watch but I’ve been lusting after this piece for a while now and its finally here!! Unboxed with a glass of McCallan 15, neat (and took one to my sales guy - still looking for a sky dweller and a green dial sub 41 but think I’ll be waiting a while for those pieces...). Cheers!!
Congrats. Monster piece! Love the McCallan 15. Notes of pistachio.
I bought all the rolexes I wanted before the craze: sd43, dssd JC, explorer2 black 216570, explorer2 226570 polar and Daytona ceramic SS black dial. But even before I was buying Breguet, Zenith, jlc and Blancpain. I'm just waiting for Daytona ceramic SS panda.
But I believe the waiting lists are bullshit the AD selles them to his friends (I'm a loyal customer, bought 7 watches in 4 years). I also think have gray market back doors.
You’re spot on in the comparison with airlines, but for one thing: the airlines share information upfront about it, and it’s pretty clear how you navigate it. You admit as much when you call out AA’s priority codes. Rolex ADs are unethical entirely because they set the rules and don’t make them clear. That creates a deliberate market inefficiency that breaks in their favor every time. Rolex creates a transparent prioritization system, I promise you all of the haters will pipe down.
Pumped for your Oisin! You articulate things so well. Almost any other channel explains the way Rolex operates and the viewers will moan and grown and hit the dislike. You explain it well and it registers. Enjoy the second SD! Makes me want one haha
Cheers man. Wasn’t planned but sometimes ya just gotta go with the flow.
That Sicilian wine looked VERY inviting! Another really enjoyable video; loved your candour/honesty/take on how it comes to pass who “gets the call” - and who doesn’t.......
Haha that is so annoying… but a good problem to have at the same time.
You mentioned the Pepsi, I just managed to get one, I hope you can get one too 👍🏼
Great videos 👏🏼
Yet another great video... Congrats again....don't feel bad there totally 2 different animals..... enjoy in good health! and you know what I find extremely funny is how much you praised your Seiko.... it shows that you just love watches...not just ultra luxury watches. My hat's of to you! I look forward to your videos....keep them coming you are one of the very few watch channels I truly enjoy !
Your comments on customer loyalty and availability are spot on. I wish you could get that through to Paul T.
Funny listening to you speak and looking at my apartment over your shoulder! Haven’t been for a year due to the bloody pandemic, I miss that city.
Great video. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Great perspective on the Rolex loyalty/list concept. Made sense.
my dad died on Nov 9, Nov 10th paid for the funneral, got a call on Nov 11 that my redline showed up! Oh in the middle of builging a house...... Watch looks great on my wrist. I get it
Congrats Oisin on the watch and as always your a voice of reason. I have five Rolex all bought at retail or below before the hype started- I haven't flipped and I'm a local customer to my AD. Of course they take care of me. Now that all the Rolex hype exists, people that all of a sudden want in on the action for the first time who are much more likely to be flippers are delusional if they want to get their watches before historically loyal customers. Too bad so sad, buy what you like and maybe your passion will be hyped one day and you'll understand what actual loyal customers feel like. Also, I appreciate that Rolex doesn't just ramp up production to satisfy the urge of the impatient sheepall which would ultimately diminish the Rolex brand exclusivity.
Wise words. I did get a call from an AD in Edinburgh for an Explorer 2 black dial after 6 months being on the "list".... but I did buy a speedy from that AD a year before... so maybe the system works sometimes (I didn't take the Explorer)
Congrats! Glad to see you embracing your wrist size with the larger Rolex.
Well said my Gaelic brother . Pay it back to the AD . Enjoy the experience .. all of you . Gifts are good for both sides . Oh yea a pen .. you’ve made it !!!
I absolutely love this video. The Italian conversation with English subtitles... more of that please 🍷🍷
Bang on the money Mr O’Malley. Nothing wrong with a loyalty programme, i have bought 7 Rolex watches in 2yrs, not the biggest spender, but i like to think i got my Batgirl,Pepsi and New Kermit because i am loyal to my AD. Great video as usual . 👍
The Speedy Racing two counter, white-dial is a nice looking watch.
Sure is. I have the black and orange. Amazing watch. It goes with me everywhere.
Great stuff....thank for the consistently quality videos and commentary!
Alcohol consumption can contribute to wrist size as well. When drinking your blood is thinner and when going without a drink one's heart rate and Paulse go up as does blood pressure.
Oh, that wine was much cheaper than I expected. I think I shall order some Etna Rosso. Thank you for the tip. I think you mentioned it on a previous video, so you really must like it. An alcohol compillation video would be great. I am sure you have hours of great material sprinkled in your videos.
Ha ha ha, I do exactly the same, I say thank you, and here’s a very nice bottle of Champagne, enjoy it, as I will the watch. I’d deffo buy the AD one, keep the stickered one, wear this one, perfect. Keep well.
