I have to agree with your discovery that often times a watch appears way better in person than it does in photographs. That's the case with my yellow-gold Day-Date, ref 18078, with a silver dial. It has the machined bezel and bark-finished center links on the bracelet. I have yet to see a picture of it that's as pretty as the watch is in person. When the barked center links catch the light just right, they appear to light up like sparklers. As to pricing, I have my grail watch and don't ever plan on selling it or buying another, so pricing is moot for me. My suggestion is to buy what you love and can afford. You'll smile every time you check your watch.

I have to say, I'm glad prices are finally coming down but I think a lot of us have moved on. Personally, I was into the Oyster Perpetual 39 and the Explorer II 16570 before the price hike and just plain gave up once the price went up into the stratosphere. It may come back down to something more reasonable now but even that has a bitter taste to me.

I agree wholeheartedly. I'm a 62 y.o. guy that had been a Rolex lover for 30 years. Three years ago I sold my last sub and moved on. As a small business owner I am comfortable, but not good enough for the AD in my hometown of Naples, Fl. Then the secondary market became a disgusting display of greed and favoritism that rivals a drug cartel network with prices that are obscene. I'm done with Rolex, forever, and moved on. Rolex purposefully made themselves so falsely scarce that they have truly turned a lot of collectors away.

Rolex watches are great. I love Rolex. I’ve never considered buying a brand new 2nd hand Rolex, unless it’s an old model. I went to an AD to check if I can get an explorer I 36mm. That salesperson was so proud of himself, like he made or invented Rolex. He also implied that buying a Tudor watch could help me to get a Rolex, tried to convince me that a new customer needs to follow their rules. (Tudor BB watches are nice. Don't you think doing so will upset Tudor lovers? ) Come on man, a watch isn’t something I can’t live without. It’s something that makes me happy. Then I went to another AD with less customers. I did not wait to long. The 2nd AD received the shipment and gave me a call. The purchase was done happily. Those popular sports models are hard to get. It will be nice to see the watch market go back to normal.

I managed to sneak in and get a 114060 at retail from an AD in the summer of 2017, just before the prices started to skyrocket later that year. I was happy with what I got, so I was able to just sit back and watch all the silliness for the last 6 years or so. I mean, back then, I was offered a Polar Explorer II at 30% off retail and then a few months later they were going for over retail. Came out of nowhere.

As Rolex secondary prices start falling, it’s interesting to see JLC and Omega start implementing pretty substantial prices increases. As a result, the JLCs and Omegas look less attractive than Rolex, when they could be opting to pull ahead of Rolex on value. $8,000 for a Speedmaster, or a little more for an Explorer I or II? It’s hard to justify the Omega. $10,000 + for a Reverso, or any number of Rolexes for around that price on the secondary market?

But more than specific brands or models, I like to see the connections to watches. The other day I saw a really young man in my office wearing a seiko presage. I asked him why he chose that. He did all this research, and ended up with a great watch, even at an entry level price. I just enjoy stories like that, people getting into the hobby. My brother was the same, he never enjoyed watches, until one day something caught his eye. Now we talk brand history, references, fit. It’s just cool.

Im fortunate that before the Daytona the 36OP and the Ex1 are my absolute faves, naked EX1 from Japan drop to £4ish sometimes, bearing in mind a Japanese "good" is a British "excellent" and the taxes involved. You've really spoilt us with content recently. 👍

I'll be honest I love the two tone explorer. Hate the traditional one. Maybe when I'm in a better financial position I'll grab one as it'd suit my fashion sense and lifestyle perfectly. I feel like its point is to be the watch an adventurer wears on their day off. In my case I'd be wearing it while writing my novel and other things like that.

I know what you mean about the two-tone. It's something different and looks great in the metal. Sadly, I had to pass up on one a couple of months ago as I couldn't justify spending the money at the time. Last year, when I put my name down for it, I could afford it. What a shame. Still there's always another watch around the corner.

Have you considered a Railmaster as an alternative the the Explorer? It’s not as good as the explorer in my opinion but you can get some good deals on it right now and it’s a nice simple time only piece.

Great video as always. As an owner of a YM 40 Rhodium I hope you’re wrong. Love the watch and have no intention of selling it, but it’s alway nice to know you can recoup your expense if you have to sell it. If it does drop below retail, it is what it is. Life goes on.

Yeah, and retail is probably not what it was when you got it (or won’t be by the time/if ever you come to sell) so you’ll likely break even at the very least, even if it dips below current retail.

What i find interesting is the low market for precious metal watches. the 24k Gold look isn't as stylish as it was in the 2010s. But i still think white/yellow gold watchs are undervalued. It's interesting to note that the hype cycle for watches followed the bull market in crypto. Once crypto collapsed the watch market took a hit

I do expect the Rolex prices to even come further down in the near future. Money becomes more and more expensive, so credit is and will not be very easy to get anymore. Also mortgage interest rate are rising and whoever needs to further finance his real estate will be in need of maybe more capital than planned. This capital has to come from somewhere. So why not from selling one or two luxury watches....on top of all this, Rolex is told to have increased production. And finally, some flippers have already burned their greedy hands and some are starting to get in panic I guess....
