Rolex lied, none of their watches made it to the summit of Everest(They wore Smiths). They didn't produce the first automatic watch(Harwood did...Hans Wilsdorf finally made a public apology to Harwood 30 years later).. They didn't produce the first waterproof watch either(There were several before them) and the woman didn't complete the swim across the channel either.

Thumbs up if you think Nico should be doing more videos like this one! Let's show Nico what content we actually want.

You might not known that for a short period Rolex was sold at cartier stores, so there are examples of cartier stamped Rolex watches

Prior to the 369 dial Explorer that we all know and love today, the Explorer marked dials were in a standard Oyster case with standard hour indexes and standard hands and was primarily only offered in the Canadian market, decades before the 5700 reference. They do pop up from time to time and besides prime examples with waffle dials and the occasional 36912 dial, Unfortunately most sell for very little money due to their dull and boring styling and small size.

The original Abercrombie was a department store in the 40’s near Grand Central Station in NYC that specialized in rugged outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing and even extreme exploration. It did carry clothing and other items (for men only, I believe) and was considered to be a very high end supplier of these items. It does not surprise me that they carried their own version of Rolex. Bob Lee’s Hunting World was a nearby competitor and specialized in hunting safari outfitting and, it too, carried its own branded watches.

The green-hand Rolex Turn-o-Graph needs to be in part 2!

the quartz one looks really cool

Great video Nico, just a question, isn’t the last REF in your video named the Rolex Texan which also is in the Rolex Quartz line? All respect and love.

BRING BACK THE REACTION VIDEOS PLEASEEEE

Great video! 👏🏾

A huge fan of your vids!!!

This is amazing! Not into vintage but I really want a explorer-date now :/

Lovely Tudor Pelagos on the wrist Nico, couldn't stop looking at it 😻

Commando looks badass but i like the red second hand on the other i love that on watches.

The editor deserves a raise

I hope the next video will feature the Rolex Thunderbird Turn-o-graph. One of the few affordable and very cool vintage Rolex watches.

Incredible watches, I've never heard of these before! 😮

love the vids nico ❤

Definitely new the tru beat I actually saw that jasper from Amsterdam vintage had one

The intro...elite !!!!!

The air giant is amazing! Glad you showed me

Hey Nico, from where do you get all this information? I have no idea

Finally some vintage! Thanks a lot

Lovely how rolex suplied both axis and allies with breathtaking timekeepers during the second w.w.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INSPIRING INFORMATION! Side note:I recently just acquired a HONDA FOSSIL limited edition watch made for promotion for managers, a SEIKO CHRONOGRAPH Honda stop watch/ watch. These are my most valuable and technically first two watches 😂🎉

Finally, I’ve been waiting for this video since the tier list

That watch has a very nice mechanism… i just love the way it ticks….

More obscure watches should be appreciated by the watch community, theres beauty in the unheard and unseen after all! Thats why i find vintage watches so appealing

Rolex Quartz is actually being refer in A Man And His Watch. As the quote from the book said, it got sold out as soon as it was announced.

I thought Hillary wore a Smiths watch?

7:16 the lady on da train is now lookin at me

Damn i really loved the fact that there is a rolex explorer date 😮😮😮

Damn it Niko all these watches are gonna skyrocket now. I’ve wanted an Air Tiger for awhile now

I think the Commando bears more similarly to Tudor Ranger

That explorer date doesnt look that bad. I like it!

The only one I've heard of is the 5100, also known as The Texan. You should do 1940s refs, like the Bubble Back..

I have a Quartz Rolex all Gold been very happy with it for going on 30+years 😊

7:22 hey guys lol it’s funny but my kids watch this as a fun way to enjoy why we still wear watches lol

I would love to hear your Review on Rado watches.

I thought for sure the speed king would be on this list.

The KZfaqr,London watch collecter has some unique/rare rolex he hasn't revealed it but always say it'll blow your mind please react to it whenever he reveals it

Rolex quartz is fire!

Old nico is back

Hey Nico, are you happy with your Cookie Monster ? I was offered one By my dealer and am interested about your experience. Thx

Nico, tell us about some cool Rolex collabs like rolex submariner comex 🙌

What’s your thoughts on the 1 million dollar white dragon watch would you say it’s worth the price tag

The “Ranchero” in Yellow gold is bad ass

What about Pagani design?😮😮😮

Love this guy 😂😂

Oysterquartz ref 19158. Very rare gem set watch. Cannot find much info online.

BEST INTRO ON KZfaq

I have never heard of Nico's rolex pièce unique

Could you talk about the rolex oysterquartz?

Is he wearing the Tudor fxd chronograph??

I wish you could do (if you have not yet) a breakdown of criteria what makes a watch amazing/bollocks. For example Rolex is well known around the world, yet they seem to be cheaper than Richard Mille ones, the latter being less known.

Could you help me with a watch it’s a Bulova accutron 1970’s but I don’t know the model 😩😩

Ich habe gehört das es die Texano in Platin gibt, aber nur eine. I heard that the Texano comes in platinum, but only one.

What happened to the Trax fight?

Nico, what are your thoughts on the Everose Day-Date with the chocolate dial and baguette rubies (118135)? It's not quite a "grail" piece for me, but it's up there.

Nico how much have you invested in Masterworks ?

watch made for "doctors" and the dial tha beats🤣🤣🤣

Back to watch videos this is much better.

white gold quartz is ballin!

Is vintage 1977 1675 GMT Master SCOC Stainless & 14K gold julienne bracelet black bezel a commonly found Watch?😊

comando just sounds badass

For your next list, Rolex 1831 known as The King of Day Dates. This watches were made in 1970s by special order of Shah of Iran. Only 9 of em ever made, all were made with platinum and the watch weight is 290 grams, i believe this is the heaviest rolex ever, beautiful watch, search about it

Abbacrunchy and Fish.... The number one authorized rolex dealer across the US.

I know a watch that no one has ever heard of: The “last one a promise” watch

Rolex Explorer II Cream dial?

NICO wheres the suits at man

I have heard and seen most of them , You didn’t mention the Oyster Speed King 😆

More watch history videos!!!

The Texano is so so rare... and i only knew about it earlier this year.. very unique n this is my fave on this video... there are few more rare Rolex models which are not mentioned on this video, lets wait for the next one..cant wait..😅🫡🤗

Vintage Rolex Pearlmasters. Each dial is unique.

Hublot godtier

Air Tiger

Did I now about the: Air Explorer: Yes Air Lion: Yes Air Giant: Yes Air Tiger: No Commando: No Tru-Beat: Yes.This is not a hard to have heard about watch. Find, yes but not to have heard of. 5100: No. Also for the children... Before A&F moved into malls across America and started selling jeans and cologne. They were known as an ACTUAL outfitter. It was working and exploring wear. Not hanging out with your hands on your hips wear.

have you ever heard of the Rolex Cellini?

What about oysterquartz

What was your watch on your wrist pal?

My granpa has a rolex camando he got it a while ago though

My grandfather has a commando on his wrist he got it new in the 60s

i want an AIr tiger Now… 😢

next talk about rolex dream ocean. Use by navy of ww 2 to search and rescue and later adopted by pilot and geologist to locate mummies also dream ocean 2 pro use by explorer to hunt sea lion and penguin. note that it is extremely very very rare to found, with only 12 ever made, with 10 of them explode because of over used and over exposed to gamma x ray if in good condition can reach about 150,000 or more.

The coolest watches no one has heard of would be old crab watches.

Please review mayweather’s factory diamond watch collection 🤯

The eaton quarter ventury club? Prince, to auto? I have the 1011 case

I still can’t get over how you say the word “now”. How do you turn it into a three syllable word?

The Dead Beat certified

How much do rolex precision date go for black face

I like tru beat, I've also seen a giant for sale for about £3k a couple of weeks ago. I thought it was fake as I'd never heard of it before but I may go back and see if it's still there. If I could get someone to check it and authenticate it I'd deffo but it.

King midas

before watching: king midas, bubbleback, that dual time cellini with the clear caseback, that texas beta-21 superquartz megafucker one, and idk maybe a pocket watch or the original seadweller prototype thing with the giant crystal edit: well i got the 5100 anyway, adding that he'll probably tell us about the datejust "rarebird" (1530?)-an automatic datejust in an oysterquartz case

I'd love to see you take a deep dive into Jaeger-LeCoultre, or Vacheron Constantin... Personally, I think they're lightyears ahead of Rolex... But obviously still not as good as Casio. 😉

Abercrunchy and fish... 🤣😂🤣😂

Turn-o-graph is a sleeper watch that I don’t think gets the recognition it deserves

We came for watches not sound effects 7:32

Using Johnny Sims picture when referring to "doctors".... genius 😂

None of these Rolexs are my favorite.. Quick question Nico. Was that your girlfriend moaning when you were clappin your hands ?? 🤣🤣
