You never know what the value of collectible watches will be 40 years down the road and this guy's decision to not wear it and keep it safe was a wise one. He should have taken out a loan and bought 5 of those beauties and then sell them together as a lot. I worked for the Navy Exchange for a few years when i was young and the prices there were way cheaper than off base retailers. It's nice to see this guys decision paid off well.

Poor lady that sold it for nothing, I do hope she got something after all this.

of course the google watch would have a nine douche movement

I just assumed Jay had sunk every penny he made into his car compound and slept on a cot in the back n

A-tier reaction!

And y'all thought David Yurman invented the hollow chain links.

“Sir you have a national treasure”

Life is made for living… In that regard, many men and women worked hard to produce a delectable and delicious cognac so for the love of God, crack that thing.. and taste the sweet nectar of their labor… I’ll bet you it will be awesome…. God only gives you one shot….

I love the appraiser as much as I do antique road show. They make the show not the crap they appraise

I wonder why Jay is so self-deprecating?…Just a little thing we drove by and decided to pick up. 😂

I hope the "1959 Les Paul sunburst" is a reference to an upcoming episode. If you're just teasing us, that would be beyond cruel.

Did Jefferson write the constitution on this table? Why is it so valuable ?

I use antiques roadshow as a punishment watch for my kids. But I'm not dumb, I know that everytime they cry and complain, their eyes lock on the screen for longer periods each time 😂😂😂 by the time they're 16 they'll be millennials

The absolute garbage people will spend their money on whilst others are struggling to make ends meet. Ridiculous

Just amazing! Hang onto your Rolex's, folks!

That price even with the chip missing?

Loved the color, beautiful!

I wonder if he sold it?

I’m suddenly mad at all 8 of my great grandfathers for not having the foresight to somehow purchase a one of a kind Patek Philippe to pass down to me. C’mon guys 🤣

the best golf announcer in the business!

Wasted it at the local casino

Rubbish 😅😅

$490,000??!! Why? Also - waiting for the garage sale person to track this woman down and launch a civil claim against her.

Wow that’s crazy! But im kinda curious what’s it historical significance

Great Rolex story! I'm a big fan of these.

I remember stealing pokemon cards as a kid from Hastings 😂

Grandid was a class act.

Extraorindary, I never expected this watchmaker to surface on Antiques Roadshow much less on the USA edition. Their latest generation of watches are mesmerising.

I'm too nice I'd give half the money to original seller 😭

I want her as my business coach, she made 20000x of what she invested😂

That mourning is called 'Iki Paleg' its by the Hubula, or what westerner called Dani. No Asmat is very far from the highland Interior. 1000 kilometer maybe. Some of this items might be mixed from a whole different tribes.

That table ain't worth more than $100, don't be fooling yourself. It's just wood

Why would anyone pay that much for a useless piece of junk?

After robbing the owner did She not go back and give them money🧐🧐🧐

What happened to Mr Lipmans wedding ring in the last 17 years

Did he auction it?

Not as impressive as the deal I got on a desk that's worth upwards of $6000+ My grandma was just looking to get rid of it and mentioned on FB she was offering it for $100 so since I liked the roll-top that could hide the clutter of my projects, I picked it up. Later my ex looked it up, an Edwardian Oak roll-top desk and the one that looked the closest to what I have is listed for over $6000. Best part is I got $60 back, same bills, for Christmas as a rebate so I got the desk ultimately for $40

Oh my God it's Mr. Boss!

she should give 5 Dollars to the Lady who sold for 25 😅

Got popped shoplifting in 99 when I was 7 and the police said to return all the cards and the store wouldn’t press charges. I went through and kept the Holos and returned the regulars, they didn’t know about a kids card game back then. Still have them in their original pikachu binder. Chars are is the only holo that has a small scratch cause everybody wanted to see it in school

Rich folk money laundering and tax dodging.

19:48 Oh my goodness girl, you've made my day.. dear heart.

God I love this country

"Holy Mackerel"

undervalued. More like 60-80 K

As much as Jay loves his cars, I'd honestly have to say that his greatest treasure would have to be his wife.

All I got out of this was a look at how affordability has completely changed. A regular guy in the army was able to buy a Rolex. WOW!

You’d probably need a years worth of army salary to afford one now

That lady with the Russian jewelry thought she had $1,000,000 there lol
