There's so many comments here to reply to, but I just wanted to say thank you for all the support! I know a modified Rolex isn't to everyone's liking, but I've modified every single car I've owned so why wouldn't I make sure my first Rolex was modified too?! Love it or hate it, I appreciate the support and I'm so excited to grow this channel and bring you more fire content in 2021!! Thank you, thank you, thank you :)
Put Rolex in a title and gain views, simple. 'Everyone does it
love it bro more video's from shout out from london
Congrats on the watch update!
Great choice! Would you put other straps/ bracelets with it?
@@SamrayGTR probably not, I love it like this :)
Still remember the first video of Producer Michael with Seth. Fantastic journey to this point. Congrats Adam
You're excitement is so realistic and relatable, I'd be be running around smiling too!
You are right. I look at myself and wonder when was the last time I was happy genuinely.
Modded Rolex won’t hold value anywhere to the level he’s implying even if the first owner took the hit. Selling this will require someone wanting it as bad as you and that’s harder than you think.
I already want that more than he does 🤣
@Tahir he said an investment.......simple minds think simple things
The salesman is bored off his ass, it’s like selling a candy bar to him
@@lucasle11
Must say the owner Seth of the store did not seem him self today..
In previous vids he’s been much more enthusiastic 🤩..
Might have had a dear John letter just before Adam walked in..
Hopefully he’s ok
Never buy a customized watch unless it's factory customized. That's one thing I learned from the Pride & Pinion channel.
Remember in a few hours it won’t be called that anymore 😉
no problem if you buy it for your self to keep it , but he continously says investment and as a investment it's bad
Agree 👍🏻
@@yerrie1908 terrible investment indeed
Completely agree. Never purchase an aftermarket customized rolex.
Good for him buying something that suits his personality. Too many people buy the same watch.
Seth like producer Michael are just really nice people. The world needs more Seth's and Michael's.
So so pleased for you Adam. I saw your producer Michael video where you said you would buy your first Rolex from Seth, so I have been waiting to see today's video. Really really pleased for you. I have just had an awful day however this may sound silly - I am so pleased for you that it has really cheered my day. Thank you for sharing. Enjoy the watch.
Aww thank you so much :)
Congratulations mate! Looking forward to you and producer michael working together again :D
Damn didn't think I'd see a fellow osrs player on one of these types of video:P
Oh shit, raikesy! Love the videos man!
Osrs ftw !
Not my cup of tea , but to each his own . I hope you enjoy
isitt a zei+klöpp$ ?
Congratulations Adam! Seriously. Awesome piece. I have NEVER seen one like that before. What a first watch.
Congratulations on ur first rolex i cant believe i watch u r vid till the last and didnt skip it ,love u r vid and the conversation u make here
i like that seth guy, he's cool af.
Is this Seth? Lol
seths like just buy the watch
Might be having a bad day, he's not normally like this..
@@evanoneill619 Na he just doesn’t wanna step on producer michaels toes. Real one.
I don’t agree I can’t warm up to him I think he’s cold and very snake oil like.
2 gentleman doing business is a pleasure to watch. Congratulations to you mate. 🇬🇧🏴
I’m really glad to see you buying a rolex Adam. I’ve always been waiting for this moment:)
Congratulations Adam ! Really enjoy your videos . Keep em rolling !
What a beauty! Fits you perfectly as well. I'm sure you wouldn't have imagined this happening a couple years ago either, what a character development moment!
Well done Adam I have to come to essential watches when Covid is over.
YOUR DELUDED if you think Covid will ever be over
@@KirkLee1983 id say give it a year and a bit and we won’t hear about it, in Europe at least. But I’d say some sort of normality in August time and close to being “over” in December time. 🤞
freddie ellisdon according to the WHO we should be fine by the upcoming winter so around November 2021 time. Britain is on track to be vaccinated by the summer.
@@johnnyv673 mate that’s optimistic
@@hellothere1056 it’s all apart off the “NWO” agenda and they will continue on with restrictions and make it worse and worse just to get people to be vaccinated which obviously won’t help
Happy Birthday Adam, so happy for you. Your first Rolex!!!
Congratulations, man!! That's a huge milestone! I can't wait until I make it there myself!
HOLY SHIT I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU MAN! Should've brought Michael though we can see his reaction
Seth has always been on the side of the customer. He's a pretty cool guy. Congrats on the Rolex Adam, you deserve it Bro.
So excited for you.!! I LOVE Rolex watches. I’m a bit late to this post.. lol. It’s a beautiful watch and your signature colours. BEAUTIFUL. Congratulations! 👏👏👏
Going to Essentials Watches without Michael it's just feels different sadly. But congrats on ur new watch, Adam.
I just watched 2 years old video when they went to grocery for the very first Rolex for Adam birthday
Remember that time you picked a panarai over a couple Rolex’s and ap lol
Genuinely couldn’t believe he passed up on those!
I think he was playing fair with michael
Yep could have had a nice Sub on Michael then but didn’t want to seem too greedy. Whilst Michael said let’s not discuss prices during that video I’m sure everyone knew the relative prices of the Panarais and the Subs including Adam.
Panerai is a fashion brand when compared with Rolex... I would choose the cheapest Rolex over Panerai
@@TheMaure with you 100%
i like how seth is safe distancing those watches. its more apart now
Cool video Adam. The one when you got the Panerai for your birthday was probably my favorite watch related video ever. This was a really cool little sequel, you also got your first Rolex. Especially the moment when you also tried on the Deep Sea and it was like , yes you know you made the right choice with the Sub.
Looks like a Casio MRW-200H-9B
Said the egg
@@stonephilips9361 said the screwdriver
Congratulations Adam! So dope to see you’re accomplishing goals you set years ago!
Congratulations, I'd recommend checking out Tudor Black Bay as well mate. They're pure bang for buck.
ADAM : ARE THEY EXPENSIVE?
SETH : NO, THEY ARE NOT.
ADAM : HOW MUCH?
SETH : 2500-3000$
ADAM : ....................
Sadly, that's around the entry level price for the luxury watches.
well it's 1 month salary... but you'll have it for the rest of your life.
Thats pretty cheap for a rolex though
That’s honestly ridiculously cheap for a luxury watch. Unfortunately the watch he bought was is modified so its crap, and probably worth that now with that coating and bezel
Everything is relative. To some people it is very cheap, to others very expensive.
Congratulations with your beautiful purchase Black & Yello
Seth always looks like he doesn't give a shit.
Maybe because buying a watch this way is uncouth.
@@craigwatson6368 why?? whats wrong with buying a watch this way??
He's not the "all up in your face" salesman, he knows what he is offering at good prices with huge exposure on this channel
Because he's rich
@@kurtoneal buying any watch is a private and personal thing. If you want to show the watch of afterwards - cool. This way is not something Rolex watch owners do; and yes I own a couple of Rolexes and a plethora of different types of watches. Unfortunately he has learnt this style from his mate; and he has definitely learnt his magpie idea of a watch from him. Just because it’s bright and shines - doesn’t make it a good watch/choice - especially if it’s aftermarket additions.
Really happy for you man! Can tell how much it means to you.
Keep smiling bro and keep up the hard work. Much love from Dudley in the UK 👍🏻👍🏻
Tnx for sharing
So happy for you Adam! Congrats mate!!
fair play to the dealer to give an honest answer that modified watches are worth lower than original
Well imagine if he didn't, I mean any watch collector would correct him, and it would effect his reputation
SETH "YOU WANNA HAVE JOB HERE"
ADAM "YOU CAN'T AFFORD ME" 👌👌
Seth can buy and sell Adam 5 times over
@@D_Chief. Boss Don't take it personally I didn't mean like seth is nothing, I meant to say that What Adam said absolutely right, that's because every person should know what's he's capable of, and one should not underestimate his capabilities and abilities no one is superior to no one.. what bill gates eats we eat the same.. so that's what I wanted to say above..
@@GOHARALI-SONGS nice one dude
@@GOHARALI-SONGS 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Congrats on the purchase. I love my customized Rolex 16014 Datejust. I bought it watch only 3 years ago.
If i didn't get this in recommended i would have never known that you have your channel
in my mind this store has a realy strange location, it feels a bit illegal XD
I bet that's for security and/or insurance purposes or something like that. Could also be some cray tax loophole thing (we're talking about Beverly Hills/LA/California after all), where it's cheaper to have a very profitable shop like this inside a building without direct access to a street.
I’m normally against modified watches but that is mint mate
Nah mate.. It's parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Congrats, Mate! Very unique piece!👌🏼
Congrats on your purchase, fine piece and niche that it resembles your personal brand/channel is a bonus, thanks for sharing!
The dirty glass was annoying me so I'm glad you asked. Looked really clean after did he just wipe or use a liquid
Looked like fingerprints. They usually can be wiped off without liquids.
Don't buy customized watches as an investment. Buy what you want to wear and own for the rest of your life. Also huge congrats!
Exactly, as far as I'm aware, Rolex considers them "Fake" Rolexes and won't warranty them or repair them. Plus PVD finishes wear off.
So isses!
@@ChrisAlvarezAlvarezImaging True, but this is DLC coating, and not PVD ;)
Why would you ruin such a beautiful watch?! Horrible.
@@ChrisAlvarezAlvarezImaging You are correct. I have quite a few friends at the Dallas Service Center and they do NOT service them. AD's are supposed to tell the client that the Rolex cannot be serviced. Key word is supposed. They might take your watch, send it to an SC, and waste your time. That's why you have to look for the right AD, or else you're screwed.
Nice watch Ad - never thought a pimped up Rolex could have looked so good. Great purchase and enjoy.
So stoked for you
Amazing watch! I mean, I don't understand the Rolex drama, but still - getting something you really wanted and the getting it in a form that really speaks to you - it must've felt so special. Super cool!
Thank you!
And here’s me trying to decide whether to outlay $175 on a Seiko from Jomoshop 😕
Do it!
Seiko’s are well respected in the world of horology. Seiko makes some of the finest watches in the world. 8R35, 8R55, 9S65, 9R65... arguably better than Rolex movements.
buddy add 50$ and buy Citizen eco drive bl8700 there is lots of otpion. I'm IT/ET engineer, using it everyday during the work, climbing swimming since 2015. swear I never sew anything reliable like that. impressive watch.
@@achilles1170 Thanks I will look into the eco drive watches.
Preach
How refreshing those new lighting in the store.
Congratulations from Belgium!
I was always curious to see you as well, so now you have a new subscriber!
Thanks!
That is one sexy watch, congrats glad you went to Seths.
Adam going in to buy a Rolex in a black hoodie and a hat 😅 and a great pick too, choosing what you actually like and fits your style the best. Very nice.
Congrats Adam! I hope that you enjoy it......
Nothing better then a man who says their gonna do something, and they do it. Much respect.
If you wanted black and yellow then the Speedmaster Dark side of the Moon has you covered 👌
That is the only omega watch I would ever buy. However I would be afraid to smack the ceramic Case against anything since ceramic is rather prone to cracking.
@@iOSKrys the hell are you doing with your watches? throw them against the wall for fun or what? 😂
@@iOSKrys yeah there is that chance but I think you'd have to be pretty aggressive with it. Like if you hit a stainless steel watch hard enough to dent it. But for general wear and tear it's unmatched.
@@iOSKrys I remember when Rolex first came out with the ceramic bezel inserts and I was thinking to myself, “ceramic? That shits going to scratch and break like crazy.” Turns out it’s not typical ceramic like you would think of. It’s an ultra high-tech form of ceramic made from scratch by Rolex and it’s virtually indestructible unless you like take a hammer to it and purposefully try to destroy it. Otherwise it is unequivocally unmatched in its strength and robustness. I have a few myself and the ceramic bezel is the only part of the watch, along with the crystal, that doesn’t have a scratch on it.
@@michaelfleming8490 Nice to hear from your experience. I only came along the ceramics topic during my studying and thats just a typical characteristic of ceramic material in general. Definitely Rolex made sure to test their watches and choose/create a durable ceramic.
I like the look of the dark side of the moon watch because it’s so understated. In Germany there is a very strong social envy so it’s nice to not attract more attention than you need to. People don’t think too well of you if you drive a fancy car or wear a flashy watch.
Hi Adam.
Have you seen Reef-Tiger are doing a Full/Genuine Tourbillion watch range for $700 USD. crazy, cheapest one ive seen! They got some funky looking watches in their range.
Love the Channel, Big hello from back in the UK
Paul
Congratulations on your new Watch Adam
Good for you Adam Seth is a cool dude always welcoming.
Rolex used to have a marketing campaign that said "congratulations you've made it"! I think this applies here. Grats man!!
Please Film when you show it for Michael so we can see he's reaction!
so happy for you! congrats!!
Well Done so happy for you
Congrats mate on your first Rolex. I am a big watch enthusiast and have a small collection myself. However, I feel like you should have bought the factory piece, especially for your first Rolex. The attention to detail, the polishing, the factory dial with 18k applied white gold markers and hands, trust me it’s a work of art by Rolex. However, the after market dial/bracelet is beautiful but just not the same!
I miss Michael, I feel he should have been here when Adam gets his first Rolex.
Michael is his boss we should he.
Michaels a nice guy, but I don't think he's much of a watch expert. He's loaded, and buys on impulse.
@@Paul-TrophySE obviously you don’t know about him then and don’t watch is watch videos lol
@@yung_prodigy1457 oh I do.
I like the original black look. Interesting piece. Next one should be just as unique to follow 👌🏻👌🏻
Im super happy for you and Seth sounds like a great guy and welcoming 👍🏽
I bet Seth was happy as hell to have quickly sold this one, would have been sitting for a long time in those case.
Nobody would have picked that up lol.
@Shawn Diamond can’t you just take the coating off and revert it?
@Shawn Diamond Absolutely no one cares! This is something he wanted and found interesting and something that will mean something to him. go watch his video on the custom seiko mod, he addresses a message directly to people like you.
For real
He’s thrilled to unload it, finally!
Justifying every watch purchase is VITAL certainly makes me feel “good” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Excellent buy bro👊
I’m glad the UA-cam algorithm brought me to your channel along with Producer Michael Blessings to you and your grind fam.
Thanks!
Congrats Adam !!! Hard work pays off
One warning, just don't send it to Rolex to be serviced.
You cant sevice at rolex. Its modified and rolex wont touch it unless they put it back to factory spec.
As a former used watch dealer Paul Thorpe says, if it runs no need for opening it.
@@bossingtonhillforever4267
If it aye broken
It dow need repairing
@@petalpower509 haha good one m8

I’m fortunate to own a Daytona bi-colour in mother of Pearl face and absolutely love her.
Though I do think Rolex the company are snobs in some of there ways..
I appreciate they may want to keep the price overvalued..
Happy for you, Adam, enjoy, I love that you purchased what you want, that’s what matters and you and Seth have history, awesome experience for you.
Look how far you’ve come mate! Congrats!
Nice video Adam mate, good too see someone excited about new Rolex. You always make good videos.
Love how you are buying the watch you want, and doesn’t just buy in to the standard hype watches, everyone has on their arm anyway 👌
Love Seth. Could u show us on ur channel or michael’s again some cheaper watches. That we can afford. Thanks and love the new watch 🔥🔥
Congrats! I just bought my first rolex a week ago too. Datejust two-tone 16223 tapestry dial.
That's an incredible watch. Congrats Adam!
Seth is the coolest dude. I worked in luxury retail for a few years and lots of salesmen are pompous jerks, but Seth reminds me of my favorite people in the industry. If I’m ever fortunate enough to buy a Rolex it’ll be from him.
Seth really is a cool dude! Every time I chat with him on FB he's always really really nice. Always down to earth! :)
He reminds me of little finger from GOT.
"Adams watch" i was thinking like dude is geting deepsea james cameron, and then I see dlc sub wtf, why would you do that to a sub...
yeah, also would never get a custom watch, but hey...to each their own, if he's happy with it...who am I to judge?
Because he liked it. And modding a watch or car is not a sin. Original nazis are the scum.
It's so ugly
@@oscarrink2772 that's subjective. It looks good actually.
@@jimutjayadev Yeah that is the point. If he likes it he can buy it. There will def. be people who will ask him what watch this is (Conversation starter). He ist rich enough to throw the watch in the garbage if he doesn't like it anymore.
I guess he does not realy care what other people think about the watches he chooses to buy and why shoud he? It's not like he spends your money
I'm very happy for you adam... congrats...
ThNks!
Your channel and Producer Michael's have become my favorite. I am looking at watches. :)
Seth is definately making money on that watch. His face when Adam said he preffered the deep. Priceless, never seen a grin disappear so quick.
Yeah! You can tell he can't wait to offload that DLC to Adam! LOL
You should've got stainless version ,it's worth more and harder to find ,a custom watch isn't worth shit
Very stupid choice. Do not ever buy a modded Rolex like this.
He forgot to bring Michael lol
Beautiful watch! Congratulations
Congratulations Adam! 🎊
*Congratulations, Adam!!*
Michael in his office March, 2018: _"We do need to get that G-Shock off of his wrist though"._
:D
Adam: Done and done, sir.
Congrats Adam ! --- It's a nice Rolex OK, but it's not a G-SHOCK !
Casio is God tier.
“ DLC” Diamond Like Coating is awesome use that on coating on race car engine internals
Super cool dude Seth, congrats Adam!
One day I will fly from Bulgaria and buy a watch from Seth - such a nice guy
Congrats Adam. Very happy for you. I’m going to see Seth too and buy some watches from him! Enjoy it 👊🏻🙏🏻
What a beautiful watch! Customized too.....
So happy for you enjoy ☺️
congrats brotha.. ☝️☝️☝️
The watch is worth less customized, but if you don’t sell it, it doesn’t make a difference.
It will probably save the watch in the long term and protect it from scratches. I think if you buy a Rolex it should be for life.
@@bighands69 I don’t flip watches either. People should buy what they are going to wear. My AD offered me a Sub and I can’t buy it because my wife would kill me. I bought a Rolex 2 weeks ago and another one isn’t in the budget.
@@rickjason215 which Rolex did you buy?
I love the watch for you Adam. It makes you happy and that is what is important. It if perfect for you style.
Congrats my man!! Happy for you
