You don’t need to be a millionaire to buy any of these pieces. I graduated in 2004 and have been working in the IT sector for just over 20 years. I earn less than $95,000 a year. I own two Rolexes, a Tag Heuer, a Breitling, an Omega and I recently added an Audemars Piguet to my collection. I bought the first one in 2008, only two of them were brand new and only one of them cost over $20,000. You don’t have to earn six figures to afford a nice watch collection. Work hard, save and it’s easier than you think.
I always look forward to your recommendations. A few years ago, I bought a Rolex Seadweller Black Dial Vintage 1665 in Switzerland. It was the perfect size for me and had an entirely self-winding movement, which I found better than the Submariner. Now, I'm curious to see how much it's worth today. I'm planning to do some research and might make a profit from it.
Great that will fetch you some cash. *I used to be a collector, but I liquidated my collection to venture into real estate. In January, I acquired homes in Malibu for $32million, and the returns on investment far exceed what I earned as a collector.
How did you grow your portfolio to $32m, I'm impressed, I have a lump sum in the bank, the rates are not impressive so I'm moving it, what's your cash flow like?
I have a financial advisor (trader) she grows my liquid assets and I reinvest the weekly payouts back into real estate and long-term ETFs like VOO and SCHD. I have also started acquiring some tech ETFs, including IITU and IUCM.
Love that Kevin relates memorable moments with watches. I can definitely relate b/c I do the same thing and makes the timepiece that much more special.
Great to see a Brazilian like me with this kind of success in the US, its impressive the level of content you create! I see your videos since you were playing Call of Duty with gameplays in portuguese...
He’s like Donald trump the way he says things in very general sweeping terms with confidence but doesn’t really say anything technical at all. ‘The dial, the dial, the dial’, China, China, China
Not convinced is being polite. He’s a nice enough guy but tbh he thinks he knows much more than he really does re watches. It’s his mate Teddy with the watch knowledge.
got my 39mm with the white dial on the 3-link "Bader" bracelet watch on MaMaCoo 3 weeks ago and am loving it to pieces. Absolute fantastic watch that wears super comfortable on my 6.75 inch wrist. Chose the 3-link over the 5-link bracelet for the toolless quick adjustment. Way more comfortable than my Longines Hydroconquest 41 mm.
The Cartier was scratched on the case, upper right. The Baume and Mercier had a scratch on the case as well, center right. The Longines was unscratched, from a top view anyway.
My absolute favorite watch is the Casio AE1200. Alarm, Timer, Stopwatch and worldtime. You can see your home time in every mode. 10 year battery, precise timekeeping, 100 meter water resistance, durable. Sleep with it, run with it, bath with it.
Alex!! You've outdone yourself again! Thank you for this amazing content and colab with Mr.Wonderful. This video really helped put context or perspective around a market that is for the most part unattainable for a lot of young men of this generation but is realistically reachable if they apply themselves.
I was surprised to hear that too. Not in the sense that he "needs to know French". But for a watch guy, he should at least know how to pronounce it right.
I've recently began my obsession as a watch collector. And i must say- out of all the luxury brands I've been researching, for me the amzwatch's watches are the most intriguing.

In a past Kevin Oleary video where he is the guest and chose the watches, he picked the interesting choices. They were affordable, and others were within reach. Among the selections was kuoe, but was passed over for a very unique brand.
A Dornbluth and son using a Unitas small seconds with well sculpted movement as a start off point is one to consider. But, you have to wait for a year for the handbuilt watch to be done being made. One of them costs about $4500 (euro?). It's very eye appealing. Cal. 99.1
The nomos Lux is the real winner for mechanical watches in that first category. The level of finishing for the price, is unparalleled. Fully in house, including escapment. Anglage on the screw sinks, blued screws, a movement made for the watch, hand engraved balance bridge with a swan neck regulator. Its just a killer.
Great video, very accurate analysis. In my 4.5 years in the game as a watch collector and enthusiast, I collected a lot from amzwatch I was thinking I was able to get a blue SD but I'm not vip enough, but I'm not giving up. Hehe. Great video.
Kevin loved the Tissot PRX, that’s a great “luxury” piece. I’d wear a Casio Edifice personally for business and an active everyday lifestyle piece. 👌🏼 Dive watches are cool and versatile as well, Tudor, Phoibos, Citizen, and even cheaper Chinese Microbrand homages from San Martin, Steeldive ect. For a vacation watch these Chinese microbrand watches make even more sense, reliable, cheap, elegant, and an expensive watch in a third world country… I’d almost say either a cheap dive watch under $200, or really inexpensive field watch will make you look killer. Or just stick with Casio and Cartier. Couple Casio Edifices for daily wear, EFR, EFB, and an Oceanus S100, S200, and a Cartier of your choice when you really need that exquisite luxury piece. Godtier.
I got suckered into this watch rabbit hole and almost picked up a rolex, explorer 2, and I am happy I did not since my first was a Longines Spirit Zulu Auto. Sadly I get the dial, craftsmanship but I miss the hourly chime, set it and forget it of my MRGB5000D-1. I will keep the Spirit as a weekend watch, but pass on the rest, realized I like function over form
Different from your normal content. Awesome switch up with Mr. Wonderful! Dudes a gentleman and aligns with your channel but also has different taste which is cool to see. Great video man!
Lol!! Every time I see Kevin speak about watches, it cracks me up. Yes, he has the money to buy whichever one he wants, but the dude doesn't really know much about watches. Teddy basically has taught him what he knows today. Before Teddy, Kevin was just a rich guy who bought watches. Now he knows a little bit more, but not much. Lol
Absolutely right!! I have seen some collab videos of Kevin with Teddy on afforadable watches, where Teddy does most of the talking about the technicalities and he just sits there clueless and says some 2-3 words in repetition about the dial and value for money etc….also Teddy does a better video than Alex can on watches.
I absolutely love watches, the high end watch brands are out of my budget but the amzwatch has literally an almost duplicate of every single watch on the market . Always a great but no matter your budget.
It's not a good look. Imagine walking into a business meeting and seeing someone dressed like a vampire while wearing a red banded watch on each hand. It's tacky and makes it look like he's trying way too hard.
In my opinion Longines is THE best starter luxury watch company. You can get a second hand Conquest quartz for 500ish, a second hand automatic watch for 1000 and can make it as crazy and go up to thousands of euro's/dollars!
Thank you Alex. this was very enjoyable & informative!! Kevin O'Leary is the ultimate watch collecting aficionado.. watching this made me "hungry" to start watch shopping. After all, there is a thin line in watch collecting: between addiction vs collecting hobby.. :).
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the amzwatch, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
He should have picked the Tudor , the Catier is a good option but I prefer a Santos with white dial , for no budget i'll go for a Rolex , High end Tag Heuer , AP or even better a Patek ..or maybe another Tudor
The collab was great, but 22 year olds wearing something for 8k is so unrealistic for 90% of people out there. I mean, people are in debt with student loans.
Even a novice like me can get a lot closer than that. He just bluffs his way through the things he doesn't know anything about. Who wears 6 watches a day just to impress his contacts?
Don't forget to follow me on instagram.com/alexcosta
My apologies for the editing mistake at 3:55
Thank you for watching!
-AC
thank goodness, thought my computer died 😆
I know leary is a great guy but I just wish for you to collaborate with Teddy baldassare
It’s fine great vid tho
Not sure why Alex thinks all his viewers are Multimillionaires
It’s the goal of building his audience towards growing their mindsets into becoming millionaires…you dream it, you strive for it
You think they want their audiences to become millionaires? You must be monkey minded person who believes Santa exists@@emergencyfood7660
You can afford most of these watches. It just takes some discipline. I’m a schlub and I have a few nice pieces in this range
You don’t need to be a millionaire to buy any of these pieces. I graduated in 2004 and have been working in the IT sector for just over 20 years. I earn less than $95,000 a year.

@@emergencyfood7660 I couldn't afford one at the start but by the end of the video I had bought 3 rolexes. It clearly works
Nico is gonna enjoy this
😂
Same thought 😂
There was nothing stupid said in this video. Why do you think he would enjoy this?
@bertholdbach4959 trust me. He's going to find something
Props to Kevin for knowing so much about more affordable watches like Longines and Baume&Mercier...seems like time spent with Teddy is paying off ;)
Unreal Collaboration✨️
Alex collabed with Kevin before the release of gta 6
now we need a crossover with Teddy
True
Teddy baldassarre? Would love to see courtney there too
Hell no
An actual watch guy who knows his stuff
I'm pretty sure his wife isn't as into watches as he is 😂
The Cartier Santos and Girard-Perregaux were both really good picks. Cartier Santos at around 5k is killer.

She is well known as - Diana Leayani Lara. please do your own research.
Kevin is the last guy id go for watch shopping advice
I was just thinking of that seeing the watch he’s wearing 😅😅
Love that Kevin relates memorable moments with watches. I can definitely relate b/c I do the same thing and makes the timepiece that much more special.
I can already see a dutchman getting ready for this video 🤣🤣
Been following you since a long time Alex! Happy to see your success man! Much support! ❤
The knowledge and passion Kevin has for watches, one can listen to him for hours.
The old angry dude from shark tank 😂
(and the one with the worst offers 😭)
Lol😂 yep you got it
He's only angry when he doesn't hear the word "royalty"
He's been a watch RUclipsr for a while now, "where the hell you been at"!!!!? You're probably just a bot though!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@SteveSmith-kd9ifyeah I'm a chess bot, thx for the compliment
We want a updated watch collection
I'm surprised Kevin didn't pick any Grand Seikos for entry-level watches.
Same. I was expecting $1000+ watches for entry lol.
Or SEIKO spring drive,FTM.
A lot of these watches are beautiful, though personally I love a minimalistic look, like the Parmigiani Fleurier, great video Alex!
I couldn’t afford these but love looking. Love how Kevin gives his time to other enthusiasts and ultimately help promote these channels.
I can almost feel Nico Leonard blood pressure erupting like a 🌋 😂😂😂
Great to see a Brazilian like me with this kind of success in the US, its impressive the level of content you create!

I like Kevin but the black and red combo always looks like a prom outfit
he sleeps in a coffin
Yea, he needs to reinvent his look
Thank you for making high quality videos!Love MaMaCoo ’s watches

Hey Alex! Thank you for having Mr. O'Leary on the channel. He is a supreme collector. Great guest!
That Nomos has to be the best pic of them all! What a classy watch! Simple dial but so elegant! Great choice!
My absolute favorite watch is the Casio AE1200.
Alarm, Timer, Stopwatch and worldtime.
You can see your home time in every mode.

He also murdered Glasshutte
He had too much Jäger(meister) the nite b4.
He drives me nuts when he speaks about watches.
I was surprised to hear that too. Not in the sense that he "needs to know French". But for a watch guy, he should at least know how to pronounce it right.
Best picks in my opinion: Nomos Lux Hermelin, Cartier Santos, and Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda. 🔥🔥🔥

I have a 1953 Rolex Oyster in 34 mm and it works. Wears bigger than one would expect. Great show!

Cartier Santos is an amazing watch - so comfortable, classy, and uncommonly worn.
Good to see you switching up your content, Alex. We enjoy it regardless.
Keep going bro! ❤💪
Thank you!
When it comes to fine imitation watches, amzwatch delivers. I've bought from them several times, and I've never been let down.
ok but alex outfits are so fire

that guy in the shop sold me a beautiful dress watch before I went to prison.

MaMaCoo has set a new standard for replica watches. Their craftsmanship is impeccable. Its hard to tell the difference from the originals
The last selection was great. Love them all
Alex love your videos please never retire ❤❤
Why is the Rolex brand blurred? 😂
Also for watches under 10k; you could pick up a Rolex datejust or oyster perpetual and still have change left over
True, such a clowns. Pick up some useless brands instead of get some classic Rolex
@@aspOLmeR I think these brands are good however for the average Joe who wants a one and done watch; Rolex is a solid choice
Love it! Thanks Alex⌚️
Luved watching all these different watch models.
Hey Alex, it has been a while since I've watched your videos but I am glad I found your channel again. I forgot how much I learn from your videos!
Learned a lot ! Thxs for bringing this to us ! ❤
Amazing video!
Big fan of the watch content man! Would love more. Need Teddy next!
I end up loving his own Cartier gold tank Loui the most! It's such a classy and timeless beauty..

never a boring moment with Kevin. Cheers/
Hey Alex, can you please add links for these watches?
What is the specific B&M Dual Time ?
If I walked into WEMPE NYC boutique I'l walk out with a WEMPE IronWalker or Zeitmeister ONLY!
The rest can be found pretty much everywhere💁🏻
