    When I was in college in 2007, I coveted a Tissot Blue watch but did not have the money. Now in 2024, I have the money to buy a Patek Philippe and I still did not buy the Tissot watch BECAUSE I use an Apple Watch instead for modern technology, convenience and practicality. For my vanity, I buy 18K and 22K gold bracelets which I sell off later and make profit and buy new jewels again. But I’m glad I never fell in love into the watch hype. And I detested Men who told me that a watch is the only jewelry a man can wear. I love rings, bracelets, gold chains and brooches. Sorry Tissot, I do not regret not buying you one bit.

    6:43 cool. I have a similar Seiko datejust homage. Has a silver dial. Two tone. Jubilee bracelet. Quartz movement w/ a Daydate complication. It’s essentially the quartz variant of the “American Psycho” Seiko automatic datejust homage. I wasn’t aware that was in a Bond film 👍

    Wait a second buddy - let’s get specific: when he opened that cabinet did you see Rolex watches or Rolex BOXES? Most dealers I’ve been to keep the watches in, clear plastic protectors, in a safe in the back and the empty boxes are kept elsewhere. When a sale is made they match a watch to a corresponding empty box and put it together. They can have an inventory of boxes that isn’t 1:1 with the inventory of watches. Either way, your story is sad, you seem underwhelmed, depressed about it.

    @andytse7587 Місяць тому

    Love your videos. I’m just getting into the watch game. To me it seems this is an affordability issue. Simple watches are holding value more bc there’s just more people that can buy them. Grand complications have a very small buyer pool, so the secondary market can expose the manufacturer retail price. You see the same thing in real estate. Sometimes the median prices hold value better than the high end bc there’s just more buyers that can support the pricing. Thank you for your data. Looking forward to new videos.

  • @WasniahDwipa
    @WasniahDwipa Місяць тому

    It's sad that watches that look good cost over 1k+. MAMACOO watches are REALLY well made, and it just shows how a brand name on a watch can make its price 10x higher. I understand that if you look under a microscope, you'll find the difference, but just how many of you really inspect a watch at that level when you see someone with a watch?
