Well, well, well - what do we have here? It’s the 9 watches announced in 2022 that I would buy, if I could. An irreverent personal list of timepieces that have grabbed my attention in the last 12 months.
Not all are actually possible, because we have some real big hitters in this list, and to be honest, I don’t have a VIP relationship with some of these brands, which means the chances of getting them are less than zero.
But, I’m an eternal optimist, so perhaps I might be able to get more than you might think. This list has a real mix of price points, complications and brands, but they are all united by my appreciation.
Let me know in the comments what watches are on your wishlists, and whether you too like some of the ones I have chosen.
Sound good? Excellent, let’s do this.

Still collecting/doing vids Damien The Rolex new mkt just like Porsche mkt, dropping like a stone.....and going back towards list. Thankfully new ones are not of interest to me. The vintage Rolex/Tudor mkt has just had a 15/20% correction which is fine given 100% rise from 2017-2022.

One thing you mentioned in your recent Ferrari video was the link that some people have between sports cars/performance cars and mechanical watches. I don't know if it has already been done, but a video on your watch channel about this subject may be interesting. My brother likes Ferraris and Porsches, while I tend to favour old school American muscle, but we both also like mechanical watches.

I’m so curious about how you buy your watches. Do you have one AD you have a relationship with? I buy all mine from Pragnell in London and have a good relationship, but they don’t sell AP or Vacheron. It’s so tough to try and convince a new dealer to give you a chance when they don’t know you. I can show them my instagram and that I own over half a million pounds worth of watches but they still won’t give me the time of day, especially given my age (26). I’m also curious what job you do/did to be able to afford all your watches? Thanks.

Count me in among those who "get" Studio Underd0g, but as your typical "watch guy on a budget," I'm content to admire all of their funky designs from afar until one comes along that really grabs me. The eggplant came close, so of course that one was a limited edition and I wasn't quick enough. Maybe something next year will be equally up my alley.

Truly hope you get the gold PP you deserve it. Magnificent is a reasonable choice of words for it the other pp 5711 whatever is on the ' just another 5711' list God knows why PP have gone all Don King and defaced their own product by putting girly pretty pretty stones on everything. Why not buy a nice watch and a nice sparkly bracelet if that's your bag. Combining both ruins both IMHO 🤦 but as usual a beautifully put together video Finally on a small point of order, I really wish manufacturers would put out real world pictures not these heavily stylised photoshopped renditions of them. I realise I'm highly unlikely to ever see most of the high ends stuff in the real world so a proper picture would help get a true idea of what it actually looks like 👍

@denniskai2331 Жыл бұрын

Message to Rolex - you should lower all the Deep Sea Challenge watches to the bottom of the trench and record it - before selling them. Probably wouldn't be that expensive and would be an incredible marketing initiative. Owners could buy their watch knowing that it had been to the deepest part o the ocean - and have a video record of the Journey

I really enjoy watching channels on the buy side - I.e watch collectors who showcase their collections - it gives an insight into their character - There are far too many channels on the sell side with the attendant criminality and money laundering which covers most of the grey market dealers - In addition you also have big mouths like bark and vomit and jenni elles gibberish who also endorse the grey market dealers . So much prefer this channel - interestingly why does KZfaq algorithm pump Roman sharf shyster - when I never bother watching him and not buy side watch collector channels like you !!

have you ever thought of trying a group purchase. e.g. approach an AD and say, HI, I have 4-7 people who want this this and this .......... can you make it happen? it would help those of us who save for a couple of years, are ready to by a new Sub, but have the purchasing power of a small ant. and we get to piggy back your AD relationship thoughts?
