a sales person you can have a conversation with the very thing they're representing and especially the hobby in general is always a great time, I feel respected that they would do all that prep regardless of their interest to represent something I long for.
@@UTOOOOOOOYwell. He would have enough time ok his hands to learn every single thing there is to know about Bréguet considering how many people go in that store or buy Bréguets in general.
I’ve been to so many different brands AD’s, and it’s amazing to see the lack of knowledge of the products they’re selling. This lad is A+, knows his stuff, pure class. AD’s, make note.
The Breguet ambassador was absolutely awesome. Representing such an icon of horology while still remaining un-snobby, genuine and down to earth somehow struck me as rare. Been waiting for this video and it did not dissapoint. Congrats on the grail purchase!
The role of a Financial Adviser is crucial yet often overlooked. After losing a significant portion of my portfolio in 2020 during the COVID pandemic, I turned to an advisor with $126K left. Today, I’m semi-retired, working just 7.5 hours a week, and only 15% away from my $1 million retirement goal.
As a poor, young student I walked into the Breguet showroom in London some 25 years ago. They were gracious, not condescending, and showed us some models. Today I am old and poor, but I still remember how classy the Breguet folks were. Class act.
Aside from the How Wonderful this watch is, One has to mention how Respectful and Polite this Breguet Ambassador is. Great Video as always and what a Great watch . Wear it in good health.
I could listen to him talking about watches all day, what an absolute gent! Plus he’s wearing the black dial Marine 5817 (the older reference) which happens to be my personal grail. That tells me he’s a proper Breguet enthusiast.
Notice how no one talked about value or price or resale value… just two gentleman talking about a shared passion. Enjoy your new watch in good health sir.
Well, the talk about resale value would not have been very pleasant for Breguet, and because of this it is just crazy to buy it new in the shop, basically burning money.
I mean, I do think value is worth considering here. My local breguet AD is literally offering their entire catalogue at 40%(!!) off. Paying any more than just can’t feel good
@@btyc I have the strong suspicion that Urban Gentry got a considerable discount for all the advertising he did for the shop. The salesman really is very charming and knowledgeable, so a truly nice buying experience. But still, the resale value is about 50% of new. So again, like in many RUclips channels, no transparency here, it must be considered as probably paid content
The salesman is pure class! Exceptional, genuine, customer service - well dressed, well spoken, calm, caring, passionate about what he's selling. Just superb!! Lovely watch as well TGV :)
the Rolex sales staff could take classes from the true professionalism that the gentleman representing Breguet exudes. What a pleasure dealing with a professional. Ashame how rare it is today.
@@jimgiuffra8998Agreed. Sadly, I have yet to experience that, and I am quite sure I am far from alone. After viewing TGV's wonderful experience, the purchase of Rolex and many other brand seems quite pedestrian in comparison. Breguet has been on my list of purchases I wish to make. Hopefully, my savings for new purchases catches up to my ambitions. Have a great weekend Jim .
@@jimgiuffra8998Rolex doesn’t have to be nice. Their watches are in the highest demand. Breguets can be gotten a discount at the AD. They don’t sell anywhere near the same as Rolex, AP or PP.
I only own 1 Rolex - a 36mm DJ that was passed down to me. I stopped by a Rolex AD to check out a watch and its size on my wrist - I was pretty disgusted how they could care less. I left after 10 mins. Got a call after 3 days and never returned the call. I love my VC and AP SA and they treat me well. Same goes to this ambassador that is passionate about the brand
Congratulations to your marvellous grail and the first decade of TUG channel! It feels great to have followed you most of the way. There's only one direction from here: O&U! 🌟 Take care and enjoy the holiday season! Klaus
Long time viewer, never-commenter….Just wanted to tell you how happy I am for you, and how much you deserve this magnificent watch. It’s like when Doug DeMuro got his dream Porsche, I think all of us here feel the same kind of happiness for you. Enjoy it, as we all know you will. There is hardly a more appropriate recipient than you, Tristan. Bravo! You’ll never see another comment from me again!
In just the right way, he blended the old with the new just as Breguet is looking to do .. I will buy a Breguet now. Not this watch, no. I have wanted a tourb for the longest time and it's time now. It just is.
The salesman deserves his very own podcast. I could listen to him talk watches all day long. His speech is beaming with passion! And massive congrats on your grail! Breguet is definitely a trinity watchmaker!
The best watch content creator in the world now has one of the very finest watches ever made! The emotion really comes through. This is more than just a milestone, it is undoubtedly an affirmation of all your years of unselfish hard graft to give so many others the knowledge and pleasure which emanates from your excellent, original and completely independent work! A man with integrity that is not in any watchmakers pocket. All the very best to you TGV. Enjoy your stunning Breguet!
Takes a subway to go buy a Breguet? Gotta respect this guy! =) Enjoy your new watch for many years to come. Buon anno nuovo....All the best from Montréal!
@@aissaissbby Your uncle is a superstar! And lots of character. You know he's really giving you respect consciously when he's taking off the glove to give you a handshake. That's proper. Bless his soul.
I could listen to Pap and TGV talk watched all day. Like ASMR for watch nerds. Perfect conversationalist to listen to while enjoying a cup of coffee and admiring your watch collection.
Dude, that’s what I was thinking, Pap has the best ASMR voice I’ve ever heard. He could get a million subs on the toobz if he put out relaxing content.
The Breguet Ambassador, PAP DIOUF, was just awesome, so knowledgeable and professional. It was a real pleasure to listen to his masterclass presentation of the history of how Breguet started. He sure nailed it. His presentation SHOULD be a must watched for every watch retailer. Congratulations to him.
It always brings a smile to my face when I see a person achieve a goal that they worked so hard to achieve. Wear it in good health, happiness, and continued good fortune.... but PLEASE do not forget your trusted Casios!!! Onward and Upward!!
I'm happy you got the grail, but wow, the sales person made the video! You can see how much the man loves his job and horology! It must have been a treat to get an experience with such a gentleman! Congrats again!
Congrats! It's great to see you still getting almost giddy about getting a new timepiece, even if it is a very special one. Well, unique. It looks absolutely stunning. The ambassador lifted this experience to a new level I'm sure, being able to get to see that is very cool.
As a French person passionate about the brand, I can only bow to the professionalism and elegance of the seller who does honor to his profession and his manufacture. An experience which unfortunately would not have been the same in Paris… Congratulations for this magnificent piece and for the exemplary nature of this delicious moment.
Grazie amico mio, it would be possible without the loyal support of true Ops like you. If I don't catch you before the 25th, have a wonderful Christmas 😎🥂 Best as always, T.
That watch is absolutely breathtaking. The engineering and the craftsmanship in it is something that cannot be replicated anywhere else. I'm super happy for you! Incredible piece that will always be tied to you. Congratulations!
Congratulations TGV on that masterful piece of art, history and horology!! What an ambassador!! Knowledgeable, respectful and pure class! He could talk all day about watches! He service bar for every AD!! Bravo Pap!!! 👏👏👏🎉🎉
Congratulations on your new 7057. I have the exact configuration of the watch and it brings back memories on how wonderfully excited I was when I first put it on my wrist. Your video absolutely captured everything about the watch, and the reasons why I also chose this watch.
I LOVE this episode! Everything about it. Seeing you "win" by achieving your grail makes me very happy for you. Great brand ambassador, the history lesson, the technical lessons...just AWESOME!
You really outdid yourself this time, TGV, what a beautiful watch, congrats, you really deserve it, the passion you show for history and attention to details really shows in the choice of this watch.
Breathtaking!!! What a timepiece. And the salesman is a true gentleman. Reminds me of my Cartier ambassador. The total opposite of the Rolex bullies!!!
Imagine two of the most popular watch channels on RUclips both picking up Breguet Traditions (AMW with 7027 and TUG with 7057) and releasing vidoes about them on the same week. What a happy coincidence!
I was just in that shop a few weeks ago! I never really cared about watches but I used to date a guy who was, and he’d mentioned Breguet. I’ve also been a jeweler for a few decades, so I appreciate beautifully made things. I was looking at the jewelry stores and saw the beautiful Breguet windows. I walked in and was warmly greeted by Marshall. We started talking about enamel, guilloché, how the rolled edges were superior to cast ones, etc. And he showed me the old guilloché machine there!!!! I got to turn it and actually figured out some functions he didn’t know about. It was such a lovely experience. If I ever get a fancy watch I want a Breguet. It’s like jewelry from the inside out, while when other watches add gemstones it seems awkward to me. Like a watch is cosplaying as jewelry. But the Breguet watches were just so elegant in every way.
Congratulations TGV..you deserve every bit of its fineness..that Guilloche dial screams your name..may it brings you joy and pleasure..merry Christmas😊
tristan all i can say is congratulations on buying such a stunning watch from a brand full of history and prestige truely an amazing peice .enjoy in good health making memories with it 🙌
Congratulations TGV❤ I also picked up a 7057 in October!!!! I went for the rose gold version. Amazing watch........ I agree with you on this one!!!!! Well done ❤
TGV, my friend!! I am so happy for you! You waited so long and were tenacious in your pursuit of your grail. It was literally 365 days ago exactly that I also got my grail piece. The day I got the call that my dream watch had arrived paled only in comparison to the day I picked it up. The joy and pure elation on your face was exquisite! I am so happy you have secured your grail piece. I hope that you find as much joy in yours as I have found in mind. I haven’t bought another piece since. It is truly incredible when you find and acquire that watch that is YOUR signature and the apex of your collection. Excellent work, Tristano. Thank you for sharing the moment with us. Onward and upward, my friend. Be well!
I don’t leave comments, I follow and watch most of the watch guys/nerds on RUclips. You are top 3 for me, a man of class. I absolutely love the commentary and the inclusion of film references in your videos is just perfect. The mere fact that you went to THE Breguet boutique to buy your grail is fire IMO. I don’t buy into the hype, I buy what I love and that’s that, which is one of many reasons I love your channel. I live in Manhattan we should have a meet up (those that follow your channel that are local). Congrats on your Breguet, it is stunning and keep up the good work bro. Cheers!
ooooooooo. Enjoyed this video. Breguet is a marvelous and beautiful wrist watch !!!!! The older Breguet Marine is just lovely !!!!!! Thx again for this video.
This is the fruit of your labor my dude, it didn't come for free, you worked for it and you deserve it. May there be many more grails coming your way. I watched this guy at the ICU, We Still Here Baby! Be proud of yourself! 🔥
Congratulations TGV! You deserve it! Thank you for 10 years of unparalleled content and atmosphere! Onwards and ever upwards! Best wishes from an OG, from Bulgaria, from the times of watch battles and making coffee!
🙏🙏🙏 Thank you my friend, I deeply deeply appreciate the loyal support, it speaks volumes, haha, the watch battles and coffee!!! You are true Original Gentry indeed. Onwards, upwards and all the best for the holiday season, here is to you 😎🥂 TGV
@@theurbangentry Thank you TGV, means a lot to me! 🙏 Best wishes for the holidays to you and all your loved ones! Cheers 🥂 P.S. Also an ex-pat from the U.K., lived for 10 years there, 7 of which in London, hopefully will meet you one day in person on one of the socials, and will definitely make an effort to visit the old country for the next social meetup!
Easily one of the most captivating horological videos I’ve seen in some time. Being that I’ve been watching your channel since …2012 I believe… it’s been a really wonderful journey watching you move from city to city and working through your philosophical development of both life and watches. It’s really lovely to see you get yourself the Bréguet of your hearts desire and it makes me happy to see how mutually connected you and the lovely man selling you your watch at Bréguet were.(forgive me for not recalling his name) All in all, thank you for this journey that in truth I don’t think would have ever become this robust if I hadn’t learned all that I learned from you in the beginning of my watch journey. Ben Di Nunzio: Ciao Fratello.
Breguet is my dream brand, but this channel is our reality and a beautiful guide into the world of watches with lots of introspective on life and the attitude we should all strive to achieve while living it. Pure class! Onwards and upwards Un abbraccio
What a wonderful video. The brand ambassador is incredible in this video too. THIS IS HOW ITS DONE! …..where brands appreciate their collectors, not the other way around
Breguet, a glass of wine, Erik Satie's Gnossienne no.4 in the background what could be better. Congrats. The 7727 Chronometrie is my grail watch but that one is in my top 5 Breguet watches.
God damn! Wow! Well worth the wait my friend! I got emotional ... there's still beauty in this world! Congratulation and thank you so much for sharing!
TGV, health to wear matey. May it bring you much joy and pleasure. It is genuinely heart warming to see a gentleman take delight in the simple things. You have learnt it and I hope you find many years of fufilment in its beauty. Salutations from Belfast Northern Ireland 🇬🇧
I really enjoyed this video! I met Pap earlier this year and looked specifically at the tradition timepieces. He was truly a nice gentleman and I’m so happy you purchased that beautiful timepiece from him. What a wonderful brand with a history of innovation in watchmaking. So happy for you and hope you enjoy it with good health!
Congrats, that watch is simply breathtaking! What a gentleman Mr Diouf is too, such a cool person with a clear breadth of knowledge and strong passion about the brand and what it stands for!
What a master sales person. Every luxury watch brand should make this video mandatory viewing for their sales associates. Pure class and Grace.
a sales person you can have a conversation with the very thing they're representing and especially the hobby in general is always a great time, I feel respected that they would do all that prep regardless of their interest to represent something I long for.
He oozes class and knowlegde, plus he is chaming. He could even convice me to buy a Breguet.
Top dapper chap
Exactly

Well said and absolutely true! He'd be a joy to sit down and learn a ton from.
haha i just contacted my Financial Advisor concerning this watch and she said i should go ahead to buy it
Your financial Advisor must know about watches and their profit future then
The role of a Financial Adviser is crucial yet often overlooked. After losing a significant portion of my portfolio in 2020 during the COVID pandemic, I turned to an advisor with $126K left.

A salesman at the top of their game. Notice how he takes off the glove to shake TGVs hand. Classy fella. Congrats on the watch.
The gloves only ever touch the watches, or the designated counter surfaces. It's really a step above.
Noticed that too, such a gentleman
Yep, no glove handshake sealed it for me
Yanks are so easily impressed. This isn’t anything you wouldn’t see in public throughout the U.K.
@@ubertoby eh? maybe in 1870.. not today outside the confines of a high end boutique
This is how you represent your company. Knowledge, class and humble.
That salesman was pure class. Congrats, TGV. Enjoy it!
The watches sell themselves he was just the presenter.

Sellers at boutiques should listen carefully that Breguet salesman and learn. Such a great guy to listen
I could listen to Pap and TGV talk watched all day. Like ASMR for watch nerds. Perfect conversationalist to listen to while enjoying a cup of coffee and admiring your watch collection.

Congratulations 🎉! And welcome to the family! I own a BREGUET TYP XXI 3810 since 2015. I Love it ! I wish you many more successful years. GG
Absolutely stunning piece of engineering and craftsmanship. Congratulations TGV
Easily one of the most captivating horological videos I’ve seen in some time.
Being that I’ve been watching your channel since …2012 I believe… it’s been a really wonderful journey watching you move from city to city and working through your philosophical development of both life and watches.
It’s really lovely to see you get yourself the Bréguet of your hearts desire and it makes me happy to see how mutually connected you and the lovely man selling you your watch at Bréguet were.(forgive me for not recalling his name)
All in all, thank you for this journey that in truth I don’t think would have ever become this robust if I hadn’t learned all that I learned from you in the beginning of my watch journey.
Ben Di Nunzio: Ciao Fratello.
Breguet is my dream brand, but this channel is our reality and a beautiful guide into the world of watches with lots of introspective on life and the attitude we should all strive to achieve while living it. Pure class! Onwards and upwards Un abbraccio
Grazie Stefano, sei molto gentile, buon natale e un abbraccio!
Best regards,
Tristano
Beautifull watch and great video. Thank you
Love Brequet watches. So elegant.
I'm reall happy for you. Congrats on this milestone and thanks for another great video !
"There is a whole another world beyond Rolex" Indeed!
One of your best videos! Congratulations! What a stunning time piece.
congratulation on this stunning piece! you absolutely derserve it! 🙏
Such a classy salesperson, the way he is dressed and carries himself 👏🏼 great choice going for breguet
What a wonderful video. The brand ambassador is incredible in this video too. THIS IS HOW ITS DONE! …..where brands appreciate their collectors, not the other way around
This is a semi-scripted vid 🤦♂️
@@vodizzzlewell duh! Thats obvious. Point is, a rolex or sales assistants from other high end brands wouldnt take the time to do this
Many congratulations, TGV. Thank you for bringing us along for the occasion.
Breguet, a glass of wine, Erik Satie's Gnossienne no.4 in the background what could be better. Congrats. The 7727 Chronometrie is my grail watch but that one is in my top 5 Breguet watches.
God damn! Wow! Well worth the wait my friend! I got emotional ... there's still beauty in this world! Congratulation and thank you so much for sharing!
TGV, health to wear matey. May it bring you much joy and pleasure. It is genuinely heart warming to see a gentleman take delight in the simple things. You have learnt it and I hope you find many years of fufilment in its beauty.

I'm thrilled for you. Congratulations, and thank you for sharing this wonderful experience.
The best Christmas present is the one you buy for yourself 👌
I really enjoyed this video! I met Pap earlier this year and looked specifically at the tradition timepieces. He was truly a nice gentleman and I’m so happy you purchased that beautiful timepiece from him. What a wonderful brand with a history of innovation in watchmaking. So happy for you and hope you enjoy it with good health!
Enjoy the moment of buying a brand new watch that we all know 😉 greetings from Slovakia
Excited for you TGV! Capolavoro!
Congrats, that watch is simply breathtaking! What a gentleman Mr Diouf is too, such a cool person with a clear breadth of knowledge and strong passion about the brand and what it stands for!
What a beauty, enjoy.
That has to be the best salesman/brand rep I’ve seen! What a great guy!
Congrats on a beautiful watch!
Great video, great salesperson! merry xmas and happy new year TGV. been following and learned so much from you for close to a decade.
It's a beautiful watch. Congratulations 🎉
Do you plan to add a butterfly clasp on that strap to maintain the strap?
