    Hey Tony. Thank you for responding to my question from last week. An update about my rose gold Oyster Flex Daytona. Bought it for 33k plus tax November 2024 and with the new price increase on gold it is now 38k! So I am thrilled, happy and jumping up and down for that huge save.🎉 Also I'm in Atlanta GA, not Arkansas lol 😂 my AD is located 40 mins away from Atlanta, a small town called Cumming GA. Maybe finding an AD far away from a big city may be better. Thank you and take care! Cheers to Paco the feline champ!

    Hi Tony, you’re absolutely right that the meteorite GMT goes mostly unnoticed. Wore mine vacationing in Europe last year and it didn’t draw attention.
    It’s the least legible of my watches though. Depending on lighting and angles those hands disappear into the dial.
    Cheers, and Happy New Year!!

    Thanks for addressing the question Tony. I should have added that the min. hand gradually advances to the next min. It just makes the full rotation by 55 seconds. I’m going to monitor it more and will reach out to my AD def before the warranty expires. Thanks. Hope you have a great weekend!

    Happy weekend! Just got my 1957 Rolex Zephyr yesterday. It is a small vintage OP at a very modest price, but it houses the mighty 1030 movement that you find in the Submariner Big Crowns. And it wears completely under the radar (leather strap).

    Hey Tony. Follow up to the Piaget Polo question. Tried it on this week and it’s HUGE. Had no idea it was as big as it was. At the same time I tried on the Chopard Alpine Eagle and that watch was amazing, and fitted like a dream! Healthy happy new year Tony!

    To the guy with the speedmaster, I have the same one possibly even the same year. On mine the minute counter clicks over right at 60 seconds. I wouldn't like what yours is doing either, even though it's still doing the job. I would take it in man👍 At least you're still well within the warranty period

    For the Pilot from Montreal… Sir you are a professional pilot. Just show up to any AD either your uniform on, and they will get you a GMT. Rolex loves to sell to professionals that will use their timepieces in real life. You shouldn’t have a difficult time getting a GMT from your local AD. Other alternatives would be pre-owned Rolex GMT. New Tudor GMT’s or any other brand outside Patek AP should be easy to get. Good luck

    I can't recall if you still have the brown Santos? I really like the medium Santos brown and green dials. It's easy to loose enthusiasm during the Rolex waitlist process, currently waiting for the OP 36 green. From your experience of both models what advice might you offer and specifically which do you feel is the more special watch?
    Also, I've been looking at the Farer Milan (green dial on black leather), looks killer, what do you think?
    Cheers.

    The market value of the rose gold Daytona on an oysterflex sells for a premium. If your viewer wants to sell it for cost price with tax I will buy it. I have a yellow gold one( Pikachu). They are the best wearable precious metal daytona cuz they don’t have the same weight of the bracelet. Happy new year!! Always good to watch your Friday videos cuz it shows what other viewers are thinking and how you interact with their questions.

      Thank you! Initially I asked for the white gold Daytona on the oyster flex, but when my AD called and offered the rose gold instead I said yes quickly and headed there asap. The store was full of people cause it was the next day after Thanksgiving.. the funny story is I only had half of the money and the rest was financed with 0% from them directly 😂

I’m not saying that the rose gold is going to fetch the same premium like the white gold( the ghost) or the yellow gold( the pikachu), however it’s still a stunning piece of art and worth the money.

    Thanks for the video Tony! Always enjoy your Q&As and all your videos for that matter. Regarding the last question (Omega Speedmaster) I had the exact same response as you when you first read it. However, I am now thinking perhaps the person that asked the question is talking about when the chronograph is started, and the sub-dial tracking minutes clicks over before the chronograph hand reaches one full revolution. In any case, like you suggested, under warranty, take it to get checked out. Happy New Years and hope for a healthy 2025 for you!

    I have the wssa0037 santos- it has the DLC bezel (stainless case). I chose this because I love the santos but saw from everyone they were scratch magnets so I went with the dlc bezel model. I have had it for a couple years now and I have not scratched the bezel yet 🤙🏻 hope this helps anyone who was curious

    I have a Piaget Polo S chronograph with the blue dial. It’s a beautiful watch, thin for a chronograph at just over 11mm and is a bargain especially on the secondary market. While Nautilus inspired it’s not an integrated bracelet and actually is more inspired by Piaget’s own Emperador model

    Hey Tony, appreciate channel and look forward to q and a fridays for long commute after work (in mexico) , question, i have always avoided gold due to attention grabbing and flag waving that screams rob me as you say., i due like two tone, but bluesy yellow gold seems too flashy, and black dial seems overkill, would rather just get regular no date, but to scratch itch of having some gold, whats your opinion on yacht master 40, or omega bronze gold heritage 300, to go a little more discrete, or would you look elsewhere. Keep up the dinamics in channel, and keeping it real, saludos!

    About the GMTs... I usually love Sinn, but their GMTs aren't that great. The Sinn 6060 B is quite smart looking. Sinn watches are often really sturdy and have both high pressure resistance and low pressure resistance.
    Ball has some nice offerings. Engineer III Jet-Set GMT gives you classical GMT looks, great shock resistance and okay anti-magnetic properties. Engineer III Hurricane Hunters has a more subtle 24h feature, but has the holy grail feature that is the countdown bezel. More often than not you aren't looking for how long you can stay under water, but how long do you have time until you have to be somewhere.
    My choice has been Longines Spirit Zulu Time, because it's such a versatile piece. The latter Ball would have been great however. Quite often while flying as a passenger, you have to be at a gate at some time, catch a train or something.
    I do not want a really expensive watch while travelling, but if I could be certain that it would not get stolen, the Glashütte Original Senator Cosmopolite would be my dream watch, because it can handle 35 timezones marked by IATA codes. That includes the 15 and 30 minute offset zones! It's also a stunner visually and gives you high horology features like hand finishing and a sick inhouse caliber. As a practical feature, it also has a amagnetic silicon hairspring.
