Your analysis (and classification of the buyer) is pretty accurate haha, me and the wife were having a good giggle. Currently, my 50/50 daily watch alongside my moonwatch. Keep up the good work and much love from Singapore!

Excellent video. There's just one thing I'd like to metion. Rolex being elusive to a big chunk of watch lovers has kinda changed what people would likely pick. Its like if rhe AD calls and says I have a sub (date) and I wanted a no date version, chances are ill just take it because I'm not sure if ill get the one I want anytime in the near future. So my first Rolex was the SD 43, followed by the explorer 2 polar and I'm getting a GMT master II sprite tomorrow. I wanted a Batman but I picked the Sprite on the jubilee instead. But the video is spot on otherwise if people had to pick without being made to wait an eternity. Hoping I don't regret my decision of buying the sprite instead of the Batman. Thanks for the video!

Non watch people think straight away that you're doing very well in life (or that you are wearing a fake). Non watch people don't know about Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Vacheron Constantin, A.Lange & Söhne and don't even recognize an Omega Speedmaster...they just think it's an old analogue watch and nothing special ;)

August was a 2017 Datejust in white gold with a Rhodium dial and Jubilee bracelet. September was a 2023 Yachtmaster, October was a 2010 Polar White Explorer II (which was the one I went to buy to begin with back in June), and November was a 2008 Milgauss with a white dial ….

I’ve got a no date sub and am looking for a second watch. Does the 39MM white dial OP fit for a dressy/weekend watch? The white Daytona is a grail but I can’t pull the trigger on that one just yet.

@Bisley1 11 ай бұрын

Personally I’d consider the white dial sportier, but presumably dressier than a Sub. It really depends on how dressy you want it to be. In the end it’s still a steel oyster bracelet watch and will be less dressy than a million other options on a leather strap. Still a nice watch though!

@thehonestwatchdealer 11 ай бұрын

Yes I would say the OP range is more dressier than a Submariner, but the great thing about both these watches is they do great for all occasions!

This is great! Will a two tone daytona with diamonds be considered an investment watch? That new 2023 is gorgeous

AR coating on the 136660 underside, no divers extension, chamfered crystal, bezel a tad thinner, that’s it . Got one 😊

Any tips for going to an AD and #1 choice is a blue skydweller? Determined that’s my #1 that I really want but know it’s very sought after as well and don’t want to get laughed out of the AD. thanks

@thehonestwatchdealer 3 ай бұрын

Yes so with this being such a highly sought after model, it would be unlikely you will be able to get this model as your first watch. You may have to build a relationship and buy a few other less desirable pieces to get offered this one down the line. I hope this helps! 🙌

@@thehonestwatchdealeryea i mean i get it. It’s just a huge turn off honestly when I know people are just looking to get it to flip it and make money.I got 16k saved, have 0 interest in flipping it and want to keep it for life so it just sucks to “lose” out to people who potentially are just buying it to flip it. Im a Penn State alumni and yankee fan so a blue sky is my perfect watch. What’s your best estimated wait time on a blue dj 41, fluted jubilee? That imo is the closest to a blue sky dweller so i would potentially go for that too.

@thehonestwatchdealer 3 ай бұрын

@@richardgalyajr.7838 yes it is unfortunate however I’m afraid that’s the way the ADs do things. The DJ would be easier to get than the Sky, however still quite difficult. Wait times would all depend on your AD so you would have to have a chat with them!

The thing with the blue Sub is that Invicta has the exact same watch, someone came up and said hey is that a Invicta watch? Sold it and got a Bumblebee Sub.

For me, have been very selective as well as very lucky in the selection of my Rolex watches. My first one I got is a 2950's Date just Bubbleback with Red numbers. I liked it because of my interest in things that are (VINTAGE) different but understood by others as well as not as common as the rest that others will buy for themselves based more on trend than taste. My next one I got is a 5512 Submariner I bought at a Pawn Shop for what I thought back then in 1994 was a lot ($750.00), but as we all know, is highly collectable nowadays. I do have a contemporary GMT II Root Beer, again because I liked the look being different from so many others I see so often. For something more subtle I wear a 1940's 14K Bubbleback with a sub second hand in 14K Rose Gold. Again for me it's not about status, but the artistry and the craftsmanship that goes in to each of these pieces. Although I like the flashier Day-Date pieces along with the Daytona's, they just draw too much attention from others and that's not something I'm interested in. If you have the means get the one that fits YOU !

my personal favorite is the last watch in the video, the 116518LN Paul newman dial with the red. The new paul newman dial does not have the red anymore and I think that lost its special touch. So for me its the watch on my bucket list.

What? No honorable mention of the Kermit/Hulk/Smurf variants in the Sub family? Have a 2009 Kermit and a 2010 Hulk that is just fantastic. Both have a totally different wrist presence than the SS/Black dial. Not as blingie as the Bluesy, but a lot more rare to find out in the wild. ~The type of client who has the colored Subs appreciate the Tool Watch roots, love the modern color splashes, appreciates exclusivity, history, heritage, and is more than happy to daily wear them~ ...even if there is a Daytona sitting at home in the winder!
