I know Dillon personally, and he’s one of the most humble guys out there. A very passionated collector with massive knowledge! Great episode 👏👏
Thank you so much Alexander! Much Appreciated 🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@dillonbhatt1064 what do you do for a profession?!
Tudor still does custom print dials. Minimum order is 50 pieces. Tag does it too, minimum of 5 pieces. Great options for company gifts, or family crests.
Missed opportunity to show some of the watches.
Why haven’t we seen the pieces?
Enjoyed the conversation. Would have enjoyed seeing more examples of his collection.
Very nice conversation and collection. I would say the calm, soft, "collected" nature of the man is reflected in the subtle, elegant and slightly under the radar collection. I appreciate the effort of watchbox to not bring in the Rolex AP hoarders. (anymore)
Yes and don't forget any PP Nautilus....
They do that because the hype models sell well and they are trying to give attention to the other watches in their inventory. Literally every single thing they do is geared toward selling more stock
Great video. I think slicing some B-roll of macros of the various watches while talking would be great and take things to the next level. Was hoping for some shots of the DB!
They are not brands. They are watchmakers. An illustration of personalities and a reflection of a definition of someone is what a timepiece consists of.
why not a single closeup of the watches??
Great watch talk. Please keep it coming Tim!!
I want to have a collection like that when I grow up!
Where were the watches?
Just to correct on the Tudor State of Qatar. I have a Pelagos with the same dial that I bought at the AD . It’s limited but not gifted to any royal family. At the used dealers here you still can find both.
Born rich , born rich
So?
Nice conversation, but sadly we see very little of the collection that's on the table.
He's 26? Looks mid 40's.

@@RobinHood-us7sg i tried that. i had to pay his mortgage for the 'privilege'. i really am sorry if it sounds bitter. it's the watch bubble thats helping me put down my own downpayment at 45. pisses me off.
Okay, fully expecting hate comments on this video from jealous people 😠 (see: Daniel Nguyen collector conversation)
The criticsm of that video was not jealously but the fact that he was clearly an inexprienced collector with little knowledge except for the current rolex catalogue.
