Hi Guys,
A viewer works at Rolls-Royce and invited me to have a tour of the factory. I ended up driving a Wraith - it was fast, expensive and I loved it!
I know it's not a watch video, but I hope you like it.
Cheers,
Adrian

If you fancy breaking out into other topics, and they are as good as this, I will queue to watch it. Just brilliant.
Fantastic Video - My wife got me a drive with a Ferrari and Lamborghini on my 30th Birthday a few years ago. I could relate to that sensation (and elation on your face) of getting behind the wheel of an incredible machine. The Rolls looked epic in every sense of the word :)
For someone who doesn't do car videos...you did an amazing job. Love watching whatever you do.
Thanks a lot Nathan. 👍🏻
So Glad you took the opportunity that the guy gave you. Must have been an amazing experience
Hi Adrian! Excellent video, great quality and you get well prepared to give us this great mini tour at the RR factory.
The Watch Dweller now he needs to do a BIG tour of the Mini facility. Motor On!!
Great video and content. Although this channel is usually about watches you did a fantastic job and I myself am not only a watch lover but a car lover as well so I found this very entertaining.
The shooting star ceiling is one of the coolest interior details ever
Great production, and interesting perspective. Thanks for making it.
Thanks for watching David. 👍🏻
Very very cool! Appreciate the experience thru your perspective!
Thanks for the vid! I really enjoy your views on watches and your channel, but by all means, keep videos like this coming. I must admit, I quite enjoy it when you include a fine automobile while strolling around London, etc. Cheers!
Great video Adrian. Would say your videos are like a weekly magazine. Interesting and informative. Can’t wait for next one!!
Thanks so much Derek. 👍🏻
I think this is a great way to express your interests more. Yes, this is a watch channel. But, most of us are here to see your thoughts on watches, not just the watches. I dig it dude.
Thanks a lot Joe, I’m glad you didn’t mind this stuff being on the channel. Cheers, Adrian. 👍🏻
Great video and fun to see the behind the scenes!
it kinda fits. Because a Rolls-Royce Wraith is a "sports cars" in the same way that a Rolex Submariner is a "Sports watch". Developed to be good for a particular purpose. But then intended to be used in a completely different way.
Basically Adrain is super rich and just bought his daily beater and showed us on RUclips ;) 👌👌
Hahaha. If only.
Nice. I do cars, and it was interesting to see your take on something a bit different. You got it, and seeing that is interesting. You can pay Wraith money, for a wristwatch. Now surely that is beyond indulgent.
Really nice video Adrian! Great quality and pace, loved those shots showing the car, great stuff. I kinda get the feeling you have a bit of the James May effect and could make videos about pretty much anything and keep it interesting.
Great content as always , don’t shoe horn yourself into the watch sector only you do quality content stunning camera work well edited hell take what comes your way 👊
Most watch guys are into cars so well yeah.
Please keep doing videos like these super awesome!
Thanks Brian, I’m glad you didn’t mind this being in the channel. 👍🏻
Loved this video thanks for sharing! It was cool to hear how you contextualized the price.
The joy of viewing your videos is the opportunity to live vicariously through what brings you absolute enjoyment. Keep it up, and if another vehicle manufacturers opportunity presents itself - go for it!!!
Interesting video Adrian. Like many watch guys I also have an interest in cars, particularly the high end models. I work for Rolls-Royce but in the aero engine division, not the car sector. I once promised to take a few friends out to the local football match. My own car was in for a service so I told them we would be using the company’s pool car instead of my own vehicle. They assumed that because I worked for RR that I would be driving a Wraith or something similar. They were very disappointed when I pulled up in VW Passat estate which was our pool car at the time. Interesting fact regarding the colour of the intertwined double R logo. The characters were originally inlaid in red, however it was changed to black in 1934 as a mark of respect, after the death of Henry Royce
Wow very nice glad to see you enjoyed yourself!!
I see you took your Kermit out of the safety deposit box for a tour of RR. Good choice.
Yeah I had to. It was a special day. 👍🏻
Well it has a clock in it. So it is a watch on for wheels. 😀❤🇬🇧⌚
I like the excuse. 👍🏻
Awesome content Adrian thx! Now get you to Stuttgart 😉
Daniel Joseph Will have to sell more watch straps!!! Maybe a go fund me page - Porsche or bust!
Fantastic content as always, Adrian. I just wish you would've gotten audio of the door closing shut. That's my favorite part of a luxury car tbh. Possibly the most satisfying sound in a well made car. Similar to the sound of the crunchy manual winding sound in a new Rolex.
Quality video mate, looking forward to your next video soon!
Great video! Cars and watches go so well together!
Thanks guys. 🍻
Wow! What an opportunity! Thanks so much for sharing it with us. Very well done!
It really was a great opportunity. I’m glad you like it. Cheers, Adrian
Great comment: “is that a coping mechanism” to say that someone has more money than sense
Future top gear presenter🤔
Brilliant. Hope to see more car vids. A good reviewer is a good reviewer, regardless of.subject ! Bravo
Hey, the steering wheel is on the wrong side! Adrian, come on, it's always seemed to me you were starting with watches (& coffee) but had the grand ambition to expand to Luxury Lifestyle accoutrements. I say good for you, GO FOR IT!
Cool video, thanks for sharing
Great different review. Nice to see something done on a different angle.
Loved hearing the engine ramp up as you accelerated. Even for the few seconds it could be heard, that was a helluva low growl power plant to hear.
Great video & it'd be great to see more car videos if they come your way. On the whole RR using BMW engines thing and comparing that to the watch world, probably the closest would be Patek/AP/Vacheron using JLC movements in their watches before they switched over to in-house, or Vacheron using a modified Cartier 1904 in their FiftySix models. Either way though it is a great point that in the watch world parts sharing is still kind of a sensitive issue whereas in the car world it's fine as long as its a good engine (and that V12 is a beast :D)
Yes!!! I think you should diversify your channel a bit.
More content outside of Watches will make for a well rounded brand.
Thanks buddy. It’s great to hear that. It would be fun to explore beyond watches. 👍🏻
This fits in with your videos perfectly ,Rolex Is the Rolls Royce of watches. some brands have this recognition , Rolls Royce and Rolex go together very well.
Fantastic alternative content. Interesting info and aspiring indeed 👍🏻
Great video , there’s a synergy between the car and watch industry.,That may be worth investigating .
NOW THIS IS A FANTASTIC VIDEO!!!! WELL DONE!!!!! Amazing access
Thanks Paul, glad you liked it. I really enjoyed making this one.
You get offers for other marquee car brand videos and I’ll watch every second
Thanks a lot Chris. I’m glad you didn’t mind it. 🙌🏻
Hi Adrian, do you want to come to my place of work? I can show you my ergonomic keyboard and mouse 🙄 it doesn't get fancier than that unfortunately 😂
Haha.
Hahahaha, good one
"Unless some car companies want me to play around with their cars because i'll do that. Ill drive someone else's car." lmao best line in the video, awesome video. Always good to switch it up a little. Good job!
Thx , we had a great time too
I love your videos, regardless if it's about watches or cars, cuz you are always honest. Another great video, Adrian!
Great video! Super cool shots. Man, that Rolls-Royce is dreamy!
A Rolls isn’t exactly my cup of tea, but you have to admire the craftsmanship and attention to detail. And then there’s the custom options. Mind boggling!
Great video, as usual! And I’m perfectly ok with you branching out to car videos. There’s a definite connection between people that enjoy both. Just listen to Spike’s Car Radio or The Watch and Listen Podcast. Car nuts AND watch nuts!
👍👍 I do love this channel. Adrian the videos are awesome. Love the diamond paint story, ridiculous but also cool at the same time.
Beautiful rolling piece of art.
Brilliant Video & idea!
More of this type of videos!
I think the closest a watch comes to a Roller with an outsourced engine is a Patek Philippe Nautilus with a JLC movement. Movements aside, Patek is the Rolls-Royce of watches, just as Panerai is to Maserati and JLC is to Jaguar. More watch and car videos, Adrian!
Really great video! Actually a refreshing perspective on a different class of luxury products.
That must have been a fun day.
Wow, what an experience! One of the lucky few to have driven a Rolls
Great video, did you spot the Royal Oak book on their shelves
Haha I didn’t spot that. Nice one.
“I drink tea & talk about RR” ;-)
Great content as always!
Not a big car person but one of the best videos you have made ...#dreams
Thanks a lot Watch Doctor. I’m glad you like it. 👍🏻
Nice one.Happy to see you get such opportunities
Killer video Adrian! Straight up #topgear stuff.... LoL 😝
It IS amazing/scary that people have this kind of money 💰.... it’s like this type of money is a form of Monopoly money. True ‘F’ you money 💵
GREAT STUFF! Really enjoyed it. Quality is spot on. Very talented with visual storytelling.
Like the title. Do 't like cars, don't watch it. Simple.
Amazing video, was not expecting it to be that good!
Haha. I thought I’d make that as clear as I could. 👍🏻
Hi Adrian, did you get a watch shot on/with the hood ornament.. will be a great ig post if u did so..
Congrats Adrian - I just saw an ORIS ad on your vid!
Hey buddy, I don’t get to choose which adverts show, they are all random. It’s good it’s a watch related advert.
Bark and Jack Of course, but the advertisers do get to choose where they advertise so congrats!
@@omarsaletovicprins9632 I was unaware of that. If that's the case, then it's pretty cool. Cheers, Adrian
Amazing car. Thanks for the video mate. Great editing as well 👍 cheers.
A little something to drive on your way to the Rolex AD...why not.
Rolex? More like A.Lange or FP Journe....
@@mt24Carson agreed
Interesting to see the cars flying the flags of its destination. Is that correct?
Yeah, they don’t actually use them now, but the flags are still on the protective panels.
There's a watch on a dashboard...so technically it's a watch video😃
Haha. Very true.
Really enjoyed this video. You should join Chris Harris on top gear and make it a decent program again.
Haha. That would be great fun.
7:12 the only time my wife has taken a serious interest when I’m watching your vids in the living room. It’s progress.
Great vid. Really beautiful car. Lucky boy.
Great video, not surprised you took up the invite, Producer Michael does similar with his purchases (inc watches). Many thanks.
Sorry Adrian , i think you have received a Rolls Royce Wraith as a gift and therefore you have sold out , Only been sarcastic to all the haters mate , beautiful car , great video.
Hahaha. I’d totally sellout for a free Rolls. 🍻
Great vid mate enjoyed that,will be grabbing a few more straps soon for the self built watch had so many compliments on the watch and the blue nato and directed them your way.
Take care pal 👍
Jonni Salvin thanks so much buddy. The watch looks awesome!
@@BarkandJack no worries mate looking forward to the vid be it cars or watches I'm a happy camper 👍
Great vid Adrian! Opportunities like this don't come everyday. Love cars admittedly more than watches, if I was wealthy, it will be cars first watches after. It would be Rolex I'll spend my money on, I would be reluctant to go that extra mile to buy Pateks.
Really like your car reviews! You should consider starting a car channel!
As long as you don't move on to super yachts... 😀
Hey Adrian, now you should do a review on the Breitling Bentley watch!!
Lovely and quality video :) Thanks alot
Vertex are showcasing there watches in Burlington Arcade, be interested on your take!
Yeah I saw them there the other day. I think they are a bit out of place there, don't you think? I feel the burlington arcade is quite high brow, and Vertex really isn't
@@BarkandJack well they ain't cheap, and I am unsure if they still have the policy that if you want to buy one you have to be put forward from a current owner!!
Well done for you Adrian, that's a once in a life time sort of thing. I would have been sh$@ing bricks in driving one of them around!
Sounds like great fun Adrian!
Please you do not need to excuse for the content you post
I mean, Patek has used JLC and Lemania movements for a long time, so I don't think the engine thing is really an issue. Unless you're talking about only today were most brands are moving towards in-house
Wow Adrian, just Wow (in a good way)! 👍
Thanks John. I really enjoyed making this one.
Great video adrian 👍👍👍
What material is used for the dash at 0:56 with the orange trim? It’s a gorgeous combo. I’ll pair it with my orange/black Chronoris re-edition for a Sunday drive
Very enjoyable video. Thanks. 👍
Watch out Jeremy Clarkson, Adrian is in town ;)
Hi Adrian.... How funny it is to see Archie Luxury having pops at you. Does that mean that you have arrived ? :-) very amusing
Haha. I guess so. 🍻
I actually watched this twice :) great vid !
Thanks a lot buddy. 👍🏻
Straps must be doing well!
Haha.
Quality Video Adrian, love the content. Video on what you expect Rolex to discontinue next would be cool!
Very interesting! But what about the clock? I think Bentley has a Breitling clock
i do not drive him very often, - i love my Wraith, - it's just worth to have , to look at and to enjoy. It's a masterpiece. To show that you might have money ?-- then you should not drive Rolls Royce. It is the nicest understatement in the world .... ha ;-) So take care and have a good time, Thomas
Oh now you are given a Rolls Royce, so you make a positive video about it
