    got my 39mm with the white dial on the 3-link "Bader" bracelet watch on amzwatch 3 weeks ago and am loving it to pieces. Absolute fantastic watch that wears super comfortable on my 6.75 inch wrist. Chose the 3-link over the 5-link bracelet for the toolless quick adjustment. Way more comfortable than my Longines Hydroconquest 41 mm.

Datejust where so popular back then and where considered the banker/ Dress watch for business professionals. Recent independent appraisal for insurance says its $6890 replacement cost now .

    I don’t quite understand why you say a polished band (@3:30) sags more than an unpolished band.
    I think you meant to say that a sagging band is an indicator of a band with a lot of use, where the link’s holes have been worn out by the rubbing of the pins.

    I just bought a 1991 Rolex datejust 36mm two tone yellow gold with diamond dial and bezel the dial is aftermarket aswell as the crystal face, I purchased it from Jared pre-owned for 12,500 it had a third party authenticity card no rolex certification but i took it to a former rolex dealer to get a second opinion and he knew immediately that it was real with two aftermarket parts

    On a side note I'm amazed at how this brand has captured the imagination of the general public for decades. I even heard that Rolex won't legally go after the factories that make counterfeit versions because they think it's good publicity promoting their watches even if they're fake because it keeps the name of Rolex in the public square.

    Aren't the box and papers only valuable with the corresponding watch to have a more authentic one?
    What do you do with the papers if the customer doesn't purchase it with the watch?

  • @rk702
    @rk702 Рік тому +3

    Slight error in your information concerning bracelet stretch. Polishing has virtually no effect on bracelet stretch, what’s more important is how the watch had been worn, if Worn loose, the head moves more and as a result puts more stress on the pins in the bracelet which then causes stretch.

    • @yashukumar14
      @yashukumar14 Рік тому

      Hey appreciate the comment man and support these factors you mention are 💯 true , I mainly use the factor of polishing because many of these watches tend to be over polished. They’re passed through so many hands that the amount of times the watch is polished can reach up to 7-8x. Polishing a watch once will have a slight affect with the combination of factors you listed. Polishing a watch 7-8x (which many watch dealers tend to do) will have a major factor in terms of the stretch of the bracelet. Metal between the links gets shaven down which means a bigger gap between the links. This comes from the years of experience of selling and polishing watches at Trax ourselves and handling hundreds of thousands of watches over the years from different dealers as well.

    why do people think a 36mm is only for women and kids ( comment in this section ) it is only in the last 15 years that the "normal" watch size is is up 39-43mm for some men, I just don't get this there is not a huge difference between a 40mm and a 36mm, I think women watches are 32mm and down, anything 33mm-39mm is/can be a unisex and 40mm-45mm are men's IMHO.
