Kevin O'Leary completely agree all what you said and represented.. Great collection you got and I have collection to pass on to my kids and was worth paying price.. Understanding Swiss Horology how they make it and History is that not all people know or would pay price for it.. My favourite besides all you shown too as well is Jeager LeCoultre excellent Brand and History behind it Cheers Alan
I think you should just stick to Shark Tank or whatever it is you do because clearly your knowledge of watches is on a very limited scale. You lost ALL credibility when you kept pronouncing “collection” as if you were French (very odd) and that red band is absolutely hideous.
The style of shirt was last popular in... well they were on sale at Marshall’s in 1994. To be sure, Mr. Wonderful, you have created a style unto yourself. At least the watches are nice.
Hey I liked the 90's a Rolex Submariner was under 4K and Porsche 911's were still air cooled. It was still easy to get over 12 cap in real estate, computers were shut off at 5PM, television programming was primarily sitcoms no reality show garbage. No facebook, twitter or instagram yes the 90's were great.
Fair points, Kevin. Cool to see that you are into watches. I just released a response on my channel about the topic of watches as investments. Idk about those red bands though haha.
I kinda feel sad when Kevin said the phrase "Watches have souls" because that was what my late father had told me and he owned a 1970 Rolex GMT and a 1970 Rolex Submariner. That phrase made me miss my dad.
Julienne is a type of vegetable cuts, fyi. But yea... the fact that Kevin doesn’t know its a jubilee bracelet lol I guess can’t blame him since he swaps all of them out for RubberB

Exactly. You might be able to get a Daytona at an airport ad in switzland that does not have waiting lists but a nautilus is completely out of the question with a long wait even longer list of previous purchases
But how good is the watch; it’s stainless steel watch same as the screwdriver material and at the price of a 4 bedroom house in most parts of the world.
Not even that. I've spent over 100k at my AD and only got the BLNR. You have to be famous. But then again, I do live in an area we here there is a high population of famous people to us normal people. (I buy my watches in NYC for anyone wondering).
Yeah you gotta spend 100k with then buying junk to re-sell at a loss or break even at best and then you get a chance to spend 20k on what you wanted in the first place.

You just picked 6 watches that are impossible to buy at retail. It's somewhat disingenuous to call them great investments because your entry point, assuming you are not a celebrity who could buy them from an AD ahead of everyone else, is much higher. You cant buy a Daytona for 12,4000 because they are not available. It would be better to offer perspective on watches you think will be great investments that could be bought now, otherwise its just Monday morning quarterbacking. While I found your video to be fun and entertaining, it's somewhat infuriating that you suggest these watches could be bought at retail or that they can continue to appreciate. If your paying $24K for a new Daytona you are taking a hell of a risk that you could make a profit on that watch. Most people in the industry suggest that you only buy what you like, and NEVER consider a watch an investment.
In the west these watches are impossible to get, but in Dubai, Japan or Malaysia you could literally walk into the secondary market for just a little over A.D. prices.
@guess what i know what resale value is, and i know what you mean, so put a nice stainless band if thats your concern, not some hideous red rubber band, that completely takes away from the beauty of such a fine watch
@guess what fench is french missing r stupid idiot...far from broke that why i dont see this like buissines...how much he made? 5 thousand in 5 years wooooow man crazyyy im going to do it tomorrow lol only reasonable move is to buy it if you love it and look in it like you save money didnt trow it away! you know how much is service for one of theese every year? and if you love royal oak and buy it for 18 000 after 10 years worth 25 000 what are you going to do? sell it and than what? you sell something you love amd cant buy another one for 18 000...what is the point? you are stupid if you think this way you are going to make money...big part of profit you will spend on maintance
The problem I have with having to schmooze an AD is you have to spent a lot of money on not so great investment watches to gain access to the good investment watches. The prestige of Rolex isn't enough for me to have to basically beg a business to take my 15k for their product.
When you have some hard to get pieces because of your star power, when you use french expressions intensely, yet you sound like total horological newbie and nouveau riche! Enjoy your "julian bracelet" lol
A regular viewer of Bear Clooney. I am glad you expressed your honest opinion on this gentleman who could buy any watch he wants with his extreme wealth but has zero horological knowledge The sad thing is there are many genuine watch enthusiasts that cannot get hold of any of these watches from ADs, in the current market whilst these rich and famous are getting them pretty easily.
This video and his behavior actually made me throw up in my mouth a bit. They're all fantastic pieces, but there's no whimsy or heart/soul to his collection. You can tell they're just expensive watches he bought, because they were expensive and sought after. A garden variety, nouveau riche, cookie cutter collection. Really disappointing.
Kevin , i think you should point out that each automatic watch is one of a kind , its "'alive " , has a life of its own , and operates by the movement of your wrist . No two automatic watches are the same , and yes , it has a soul.
Watches are not a good investment - Amazing Hobby - Not an Investment. ALL of these watches he mentioned can only be purchased in 3 ways: Spend TONS of money on other "non desirable" watches or jewelry at your local AD - get on a list - and then you MIGHT get one (defeats the point of investment)... 2. Buy them on the grey market for DOUBLE their Retail price (defeats the point of investment), Pray LOL (Not gonna happen)…. IFFFFF you can get them at Retail price (almost impossible) - YES then they are a good investment. The point - YOU CAN NOT get ANY of these watches at Retail without already spending a TON of money. Therefore - BECAUSE these are the most collectable watches on the market - you CAN'T get them. It's basically like buying a hot stock AFTER its already at it's peak. Can that stock/watch go up even more in value? Yes, possibly, - but investing 101 teaches us to buy LOW and sell HIGH. NOTTTT to buy HIGH and sell slightly higher. Good luck......
What you have to do is buy a good looking Rolex that you believe will appreciate in value and wait maybe your watch will be featured in this video one day
This famous investment guru can't be arrested by the SEC for market manipulation/insider trading for hyping up the watches which he already owns in his collection and then dumping them later in the secondary market for a huge profit because watches are not covered federal securities law. He's taking advantage of his celebrity status to make easy profits on his watches by misleading the greedy public.

@Kevin All due respect, your video is perhaps a bit misleading. The watches you have listed have been wait listed for years. That means only the wealthy and well connected will ever see them at retail and realize the profits.
Kevin O'Leary Don’t ever let the haters get to you Mr.Wonderful (not like they could).You stand up for being truthful and I think that’s really great. All the best
I'm from India and i own a Tissot Courtier (owning a tissot is a big deal here) once I was at a grocery mart & an employee there was amazed by my tissot, he asked me how much I bought it for I said ₹40k (520 bucks) and just took off the watch and gave it to him, he was like no no that's ok and I said no problem have a look at it and I saw the happiness in his eyes and he took a photo of the watch and thanked me , I visited the mart again and we became good friends,3 months later he also got the same one so it's not like should only buy top luxury watches,you can find happiness in anything you like
To be frank, one fine day I just watched a video of Teddy and Kevin randomly on UA-cam and ever since I am only searching for the videos of Kevin and watches ! He talks so much from his heart and appreciate the timepieces so much, it's simply entertaining to watch 😍...and the random phrases he talks in non English language while appreciating them... he's got great dialogue delivery !!!
The problem is that if you sell any of these watches for profit your watch seller will cease to supply you with new watches, because they have so many people on the waiting list and don't like to give them to people who just want to have them to make money.
Kevin is right - it would certainly beat the bank if you can buy any of the watches featured here new at retail price. But there's a little elephant in the room! For most regular people (i.e. people who don't have a huge purchase history or other special high level contacts with authorised dealers) it will be hard/impossible to get them. A Rolex GMT2 or Hulk Submariner at retail would involve a waiting list of 1 or 2 years. It'll be 98% impossible to get the Rolex Daytona at retail; and it will be 99.999% impossible to get the Patek or AP featured here. It absolutely isn't about having the money ready to buy: these aren't watches you can get new at retail by just waving a wad of dollars at a dealer! Even big dealers only get a couple of steel Nautilus watches per year from Switzerland. Demand massively outstrips supply. They really do have to be _super-selective_ about whom they sell to. So where does that leave a mere mortal? If you are a 'Kevin' then these are cool watches to buy. If you're not a 'Kevin' - it's probably a case of "dream on buddy" - unfortunately.
6:20 Mr. O'Leary uses the word "adaption". Yes it's in merriam-webster.com as a real word, but so too is "conversate". I respectfully submit for Mr. O'Leary's consideration, that choosing the word "adaptation" over "adaption", is akin to choosing to use the word "converse" over "conversate".
Love the video. Excited about the fact that Kevin is also a part of the watch fam. Would be AWESOME to see him collab with a favourite watch UA-camr of mine Tidy Bulbasaur. Also, Jubilee* bracelet lmao
So many small minded people in the comments worried about how he’s says collection or the camera quality instead of the information he’s offering. He’s saying watched can make a great investment and just giving proof that several great watches appreciated in value over time. Now it’s your turn to go out and build a collection that means something to YOU. Goddamn no wonder so many people are poor.
Kevin, as a watch collector myself I would agree with your 6 shown here. I’d love to know your personal thoughts as to why Lange is so soft in the aftermarket. After all, they are amazing works of art. Sure, Lange is a German brand (vs Swiss), but it just doesn’t make sense to me why the appreciation isn’t higher with that Manufacturer. Thoughts?
Lange's are meticulously maid with extensive detail to craftsmen that goes into every watch. And are very exclusive so they are sold at a premium. From my observation though Lange's don't have the same allure as a Patek. Which is the watch maker they're compared to the most. And even some of the other Swiss brands. Lange doesn't seem to have the same brand strength. And from a mechanical stand point. They're movement doesn't seem to be as fluid. It's just when it comes to the Swiss name it Swiss or basically nothing else will do.
The thing is these watches appreciate like crazy because people are so desperate to have one that they can't wait a few years on the wait list they buy them in the aftermarket. I guarantee you if people just waited to get one from the AD they wouldn't appreciate in value like crazy.
Unfortunately he’s a bit off on the “panda” definition. It has nothing to do with the new ceramic bezel. Panda refers to the white dial with three black sub-dials (causing the “face” to resemble a panda). The term has been extended to black dials with white sub-dials.
I had a great watch buying experience with Rozett this week. He responded quickly to my inquiries and shipped the watch out immediately. It even arrived one day sooner than expected. Thank you for being excellent to work with. Would do business with you again in the future.
I respect kevin alot, but he just said "this daytona has a beautiful ceramic dial..." when pointing to the bezel... just another rich guy pretending to be a horologist
@@lunataylor5091 Is that you Kevin using a sock account? Shouldn't you be off uh.. investing and making money? BTW how's the mortgage brokering business going for you? I hope not as bad as O'Leary Funds Management going from $1.5 billion to less than $800 million in 7 years. Oh wait the mortgage business was shutdown because there were no stakeholders to screw over or any idiots (Mattel) to sell it to at an inflated price like you did with TLC. I think you should get into the ugly Coquelicot orange and fuchsia rubber watchband business. I hear there is a real market for them with narcissistic crass nouveau riche types lacking aesthetic taste or any hint of class.
Hello Kevin; thanks for a very nice fun video for watch enthusiasts. Red rubber bands are your personal trademark and as you say "I get it". Honestly a red band on a watch of any price or quality looks like a fashion bauble watch that are sold at Walmart, Kohls and Kmart when they were open.
I think watch collecting is for old people. People wore hats in the 1950s and then just stopped. The same thing is happening with watches. Some young people do not even know how to tell time with an analog watch.
Dear sir Kevin! May I ask you a question, please? So, If i buy the watch without a box and original paper, does its value still increase or not? Thank you for your reply. i am a fan of your channel.
All great watches and he is correct about how the prices appreciate with these brands. Do your hw, but he is correct. I would love it if he would drop the pretension and pronounce "collection" normally. I suspect that 99% of the down votes are because of that and putting gawdy red bands on rolexes :) Anyway, solid advice if you can get these watches. It will take time as he said.
@@mpdeviney You make good points. Perhaps my original post lacked appropriate nuance. All I can say is that from my own very modest forays into the pre-owned luxury watch game, I have made money so far. Admittedly, not much. By being patient and staying within my financial means, I have owned 3 low-end Rolexes, 2 Cartiers, and 3 Bulgaris (yes, the last two are basically jewelry, but i enjoyed wearing them), and was able to sell them all for more than I paid. The increase ranged from several hundred to a couple thousand, but it was enough for me as this is a hobby and i am a minnow. Anyway, i got to enjoy the watches, and no money was lost. The Bulgari price increases were due to the increase in the price of precious metals these days. I should be honest about that. If anyone is wondering, the Rolexes were Datejusts and an Explorer. Not expensive models, but that seems to help sell them as more people can afford to buy. Do your hw, stay within your means, and be patient :)
@@mpdeviney I like your approach (5 × 2k rather than 1 × 10k). You can enjoy a lot of superb pieces that way. I have seen Michael the Producer's videos. He was the person who introduced me to Jacob & Co. I was pretty shocked by the prices! :) I think you and I are probably on the same page with regards to Richard Mille, Jacob & Co., etc. and watches costing in excess of 100,000 pounds. They are just so far beyond me price-wise, that I mostly ignore them. I am torn over how i feel about them as watches, but the prices are exorbitant. Basically, even if i had the money to consider one of those watches, I would stick with the Big Three or more expensive Rolexes, Omegas, etc.I just like them better :)
Interesting…I guess you’re right. But will see if I can invest in lower prices watches. I’m a French speaker and I think it’s funny when he says « collection », hehe.
A bracelet is not a permanent modification, and thus us snobs dont mins too much. Bezel replacements, display casebacks and bejewelment are the 3 worst sins for a rolex
As an online trader it doesn't matter how I look or what I wear. Online markets of all kinds. If you can find a product below wholesale which has demand you can sell it for more. Also knowing where the market is also important. Personally selling watches will require you to invest a good portion of capital on product which may sit. Unless that watch is in high demand. Kevin O'Leary got rich through his business. Watches is more of a hobby for him. Don't watch this thinking it's a get rich living selling watches. Unless you have a spare 50k to 100k to invest not to mention hunting the watches. Oh and then there is a massive amount of counterfeit watches thanks to China! Waste of time!!!

Kevin, Perfect 6 watches, literally my six favorite & exact collection I'm after. A year ago last week I purchased my first piece the new Pepsi GMT II after having my first big year in real estate. I will never forget the feeling of being one of the first people in the country with that watch and how it felt and I've truly enjoyed it every day since. I'm on the list for both the batman & hulk. The other two are out of my league for now. Being that your a high profile guy representing the Rubber B brand you should implore them to making rubber straps for our new GMT's where you can use the Rolex clasp. I've been begging for a year, but they might listen if you request it. Great video, keep kicking ass!
How sad is this: you own a really great collection (or „collexcionnn“) of wonderful watches and all you can do is wear them with ugly red rubber straps 😩
U don't invest, you get emotionally involved to a brand. My investment is close to minus 30%. Like Panerai, Omega seamaster. But I feel it... I have some far 3 watches n I'm happy, isn't that whole purpose?
I love a man in a good watch, its their accessory that is necessary while doing high end business. No belt watches please, quick butterfly clip is best.

only reasonable move is to buy it if you love it and look in it like you save money didnt trow it away! you know how much is service for one of theese every year? and if you love royal oak and buy it for 18 000 after 10 years worth 25 000 what are you going to do? sell it and than what? you sell something you love amd cant buy another one for 18 000...what is the point? you are stupid if you think this way you are going to make money...big part of profit you will spend on maintance
“It nearly brought tears to his eyes, and that’s what I love about collecting watches”
After denying him the privilege to wear it hahaha

19:58 Kevin is really a rich guy. He has the only GMT II with a Julian bracelet. Now that's exclusive. A pièce unique.
“he said, said can I put it on my wrist”
“and I said never” lol
"and it nearly bought tears to his eyes" ruthless guy. lol
in case you didn't notice. the guy knows how to pronounce collection in french..
I really needed an old man telling me that a Nautilus sells overlist
The problem I have with having to schmooze an AD is you have to spent a lot of money on not so great investment watches to gain access to the good investment watches.
The prestige of Rolex isn't enough for me to have to basically beg a business to take my 15k for their product.
This looks like it was shot in the 70's so much money and a 30$ camera lmao
When you have some hard to get pieces because of your star power, when you use french expressions intensely, yet you sound like total horological newbie and
nouveau riche! Enjoy your "julian bracelet" lol
A regular viewer of Bear Clooney. I am glad you expressed your honest opinion on this gentleman who could buy any watch he wants with his extreme wealth but has zero horological knowledge
The sad thing is there are many genuine watch enthusiasts that cannot get hold of any of these watches from ADs, in the current market whilst these rich and famous are getting them pretty easily.
132elephant thank you my friend
I like my bracelets like I like my french fries...julian , 🤮🤣
jason starek lol
This video and his behavior actually made me throw up in my mouth a bit. They're all fantastic pieces, but there's no whimsy or heart/soul to his collection. You can tell they're just expensive watches he bought, because they were expensive and sought after. A garden variety, nouveau riche, cookie cutter collection. Really disappointing.
Kevin , i think you should point out that each automatic watch is one of a kind ,
its "'alive " , has a life of its own , and operates by the movement of your wrist .
No two automatic watches are the same , and yes , it has a soul.
Good points Beau
❤
Watches are not a good investment - Amazing Hobby - Not an Investment. ALL of these watches he mentioned can only be purchased in 3 ways: Spend TONS of money on other "non desirable" watches or jewelry at your local AD - get on a list - and then you MIGHT get one (defeats the point of investment)... 2. Buy them on the grey market for DOUBLE their Retail price (defeats the point of investment), Pray LOL (Not gonna happen)…. IFFFFF you can get them at Retail price (almost impossible) - YES then they are a good investment. The point - YOU CAN NOT get ANY of these watches at Retail without already spending a TON of money. Therefore - BECAUSE these are the most collectable watches on the market - you CAN'T get them. It's basically like buying a hot stock AFTER its already at it's peak. Can that stock/watch go up even more in value? Yes, possibly, - but investing 101 teaches us to buy LOW and sell HIGH. NOTTTT to buy HIGH and sell slightly higher. Good luck......
What you have to do is buy a good looking Rolex that you believe will appreciate in value and wait maybe your watch will be featured in this video one day
salemdxb really? When? Where? And what else did you buy? Do tell.....
This famous investment guru can't be arrested by the SEC for market manipulation/insider trading for hyping up the watches which he already owns in his collection and then dumping them later in the secondary market for a huge profit because watches are not covered federal securities law. He's taking advantage of his celebrity status to make easy profits on his watches by misleading the greedy public.
Thanks. Ok Kevin. 6 watches. 1. Rolex 2. Patek Philippe. 3. AP royal oak
Rolex Panda Daytona rubber bee watch bands to replace the original. 13 k went to 24 k. 2. Patek Phillipe. 5711 /1 b nautilus blue face....72 k. 3. AP Royal Oak 15202 jumbo. 26 k. Selling at 37k
4. Rolex gmt Pespsi blue and red dial. 9k to now 18 k.
Submariner hulk 9k now 15 k.
Batman gmt 2 sportswatch. Rubber b 10 k now 23 k. Red pocket hanky and a red pen.
@Kevin All due respect, your video is perhaps a bit misleading. The watches you have listed have been wait listed for years. That means only the wealthy and well connected will ever see them at retail and realize the profits.
you still can do some profits even buying them on the grey market
Buy watches that are already super rare and valuable but for the price they retailed at. Great advice
I feel like I'm watching QVC.
😩😂🤣
Roddy Rod 😂
Needs Lori with him..
Hhahahahahahaha!!
"Kevin whats the time?" - Proceeds to talk about watches for half an hour
;)
Not sure why all the hate in the comment section. As a fellow UA-camr, I appreciate you creating and producing content (whichever topic) Kevin!
C-O-L-L-E-C-S-I-I-O-O-N! 😆
I know , that was too much lol
those fish in the background are 10x larger than they ever get usually, amazing.
It looks like you are "in" the aquarium. Buy a better camera mr wonderful, this is not 4k. Looks like I am watching a VHS tape
The Daytona has a Ceramic bezel not dial ..... get your script right.
Simon Arey 🤣right
🤣🤣😂👍🏾
Oh please dude. When he talked about the hulk the mention the dial and bezel. Of course he knows what they are.
How can you not hate this guy?
🙏
I like him
Kevin O'Leary Don’t ever let the haters get to you Mr.Wonderful (not like they could).You stand up for being truthful and I think that’s really great. All the best
Cuz losers hate on success.
@@lunataylor5091 There's a difference between success and being snobby about it.
I'm from India and i own a Tissot Courtier (owning a tissot is a big deal here) once I was at a grocery mart & an employee there was amazed by my tissot, he asked me how much I bought it for I said ₹40k (520 bucks) and just took off the watch and gave it to him, he was like no no that's ok and I said no problem have a look at it and I saw the happiness in his eyes and he took a photo of the watch and thanked me , I visited the mart again and we became good friends,3 months later he also got the same one so it's not like should only buy top luxury watches,you can find happiness in anything you like
Came here from Teddy's video. Enjoyed seeing Kevin talk about watches. Would love to see a video with Mr. Wonderful and Teddy.
Thanks Josh
This investment video is 10 years too late, but nice calekxcion Kevin!
acadacabra2010 👊
Chooses the current instagram favourites, and now he's an expert.
Haha exactly
this man talks about his watches like hes about to make out with them
ua-cam.com/video/JESlu0UzVYA/v-deo.html
Im here because of his collaboration video with Producer Michael about watch collections. Been a Mr. Wonderful fan since then.
Does it pay a dividend?
How your dividend to buy them
Hello Mr Wonderful! C'mon over to Teddy's channel, we'd love to see you on there
I can watch Kevin all day long and still not get bored.
BROTHERS CHANNEL 👊
Get a life
To be frank, one fine day I just watched a video of Teddy and Kevin randomly on UA-cam and ever since I am only searching for the videos of Kevin and watches !
He talks so much from his heart and appreciate the timepieces so much, it's simply entertaining to watch 😍...and the random phrases he talks in non English language while appreciating them... he's got great dialogue delivery !!!
The problem is that if you sell any of these watches for profit your watch seller will cease to supply you with new watches, because they have so many people on the waiting list and don't like to give them to people who just want to have them to make money.
He is in obsessed with the word...”COLLEXZIONE!!!” 😂😂😂
I came from Teddy Baldasarre’s video. You guys should do a vid together
Time will tell... (watch pun)
So many butchered french words. Video only makes sense if you can get your hands on these watches, which you can‘t
MrWIWARD but the RED band!!!! Great for any go lexxxee onion!
That's the point of the video. To remind you that you're a peasant
Kevin is right - it would certainly beat the bank if you can buy any of the watches featured here new at retail price. But there's a little elephant in the room! For most regular people (i.e. people who don't have a huge purchase history or other special high level contacts with authorised dealers) it will be hard/impossible to get them. A Rolex GMT2 or Hulk Submariner at retail would involve a waiting list of 1 or 2 years. It'll be 98% impossible to get the Rolex Daytona at retail; and it will be 99.999% impossible to get the Patek or AP featured here. It absolutely isn't about having the money ready to buy: these aren't watches you can get new at retail by just waving a wad of dollars at a dealer! Even big dealers only get a couple of steel Nautilus watches per year from Switzerland. Demand massively outstrips supply. They really do have to be _super-selective_ about whom they sell to.
So where does that leave a mere mortal? If you are a 'Kevin' then these are cool watches to buy. If you're not a 'Kevin' - it's probably a case of "dream on buddy" - unfortunately.
Never stop dreaming. Be hungry and never stop believing in your dreams. If someone can do it, then you too can do it. Be strong
@UCdll0_yM4ZdxwTEFQ4j_O6A nice thought, it's quite a sad thing that many wants to be wealthy but can't risk the loss
6:20 Mr. O'Leary uses the word "adaption". Yes it's in merriam-webster.com as a real word, but so too is "conversate". I respectfully submit for Mr. O'Leary's consideration, that choosing the word "adaptation" over "adaption", is akin to choosing to use the word "converse" over "conversate".
We would like to see you on Teddy Baldasare!
Holy crap that red strap is a travesty. To each his own but so much for being tastefully fashionable with your "accoutrement"
Love the video. Excited about the fact that Kevin is also a part of the watch fam. Would be AWESOME to see him collab with a favourite watch UA-camr of mine Tidy Bulbasaur. Also, Jubilee* bracelet lmao
Thanks Soham
You misspelled Tod Bellingstar
So many small minded people in the comments worried about how he’s says collection or the camera quality instead of the information he’s offering. He’s saying watched can make a great investment and just giving proof that several great watches appreciated in value over time. Now it’s your turn to go out and build a collection that means something to YOU. Goddamn no wonder so many people are poor.
I recently bought a Casio Forester for $22 on eBay. It's become my favorite watch. Someday I'll sell it for million$.
What a great voice and delivery, wish you good health and inner happiness.
Kevin, as a watch collector myself I would agree with your 6 shown here. I’d love to know your personal thoughts as to why Lange is so soft in the aftermarket. After all, they are amazing works of art. Sure, Lange is a German brand (vs Swiss), but it just doesn’t make sense to me why the appreciation isn’t higher with that Manufacturer. Thoughts?
It's about desirability and rarity. It will take some time, but Lange's marketing team can make them as big as Rolex if they're smart
Lange's are meticulously maid with extensive detail to craftsmen that goes into every watch. And are very exclusive so they are sold at a premium. From my observation though Lange's don't have the same allure as a Patek. Which is the watch maker they're compared to the most. And even some of the other Swiss brands. Lange doesn't seem to have the same brand strength. And from a mechanical stand point. They're movement doesn't seem to be as fluid. It's just when it comes to the Swiss name it Swiss or basically nothing else will do.
Teddy Baldassarre sent me here and I happen to agree with his responses regarding watch investments.
welcome to my channel
The thing is these watches appreciate like crazy because people are so desperate to have one that they can't wait a few years on the wait list they buy them in the aftermarket. I guarantee you if people just waited to get one from the AD they wouldn't appreciate in value like crazy.
Unfortunately he’s a bit off on the “panda” definition. It has nothing to do with the new ceramic bezel. Panda refers to the white dial with three black sub-dials (causing the “face” to resemble a panda). The term has been extended to black dials with white sub-dials.
Hi, I always thought that panda's are black with white eyes, the white dial and black sub-dials is called a reverse panda is it not?
@@martinjn2920 A Panda has black eyes.
"Julian bracelet"
@Lance Marcus Anderson Haha, it sure is.
I heard that and literally face slapped myself.
@@The_Watch_Mister ha goes to show you how rich he is. he don't even bother with the stock bracelets
That and listening to French, yet unable to pronounce AP. Kickback from RubberB ya think???
Glad I wasn't the only one who caught that. Little disappointed that so few did.
it's fine bald guy we get it you can say collection in french
webstaredd who cares what you think
@@Fifty8day actually who cares what Mr. Wonderful says?
ua-cam.com/video/JESlu0UzVYA/v-deo.html
Just attended a Kevin event in Milwaukee, great event. On another note, please speak with our watch guy Teddy.
Thanks for attending the event
It's called a "Panda" because of the white dial with black ringed sub dials, not because of the black ceramic bezel.
I had a great watch buying experience with Rozett this week. He responded quickly to my inquiries and shipped the watch out immediately. It even arrived one day sooner than expected. Thank you for being excellent to work with. Would do business with you again in the future.
Omg I can't stop looking at my wrist just exactly what I wanted right in front of me and the delivery was excellent thank you Rozett.
I'm still waiting for a panda hopefully Rozett would put a call through 😁
I respect kevin alot, but he just said "this daytona has a beautiful ceramic dial..." when pointing to the bezel... just another rich guy pretending to be a horologist
Timothy Bristow noticed that too. lost his credibility at that moment imo
Actually you don't need to know about watches to own one but you have to be somebody to own one. They would never sell it to a bum like you.
@@lunataylor5091 Is that you Kevin using a sock account? Shouldn't you be off uh.. investing and making money? BTW how's the mortgage brokering business going for you? I hope not as bad as O'Leary Funds Management going from $1.5 billion to less than $800 million in 7 years. Oh wait the mortgage business was shutdown because there were no stakeholders to screw over or any idiots (Mattel) to sell it to at an inflated price like you did with TLC. I think you should get into the ugly Coquelicot orange and fuchsia rubber watchband business. I hear there is a real market for them with narcissistic crass nouveau riche types lacking aesthetic taste or any hint of class.
HE drove me nuts with that, as well as calling it a "Julian" bracelet on the 2nd GMT. (It's a Jubilee bracelet.)
@@doughardman Hey Doug can you see my prior post?
make a collab with teddy!
We shall see...
Hello Kevin; thanks for a very nice fun video for watch enthusiasts. Red rubber bands are your personal trademark and as you say "I get it". Honestly a red band on a watch of any price or quality looks like a fashion bauble watch that are sold at Walmart, Kohls and Kmart when they were open.
I think watch collecting is for old people. People wore hats in the 1950s and then just stopped. The same thing is happening with watches. Some young people do not even know how to tell time with an analog watch.
Your enthusiasm is palpable. Def going to start seeking out collectibles.
They’re only an investment if you sell them. There’s no roi if you keep it!
fun to have and wear and know your not going to lose money on ....can't say that about most things.
Oh my god didnt know you are a big on watch! this is epic!
ian lasuardi 👊
Kevin O'Leary can u do a video on expensive pens?
"Eddiemar Piquette", really?!🤣😂
That's correct french
Ikr so funny
@@coolguy-fm2dy you may be hearing impaired, buddy
@@coolguy-fm2dy No it is not, you have to prononce it "ODEMAR PEGAY"
I’ve never ever heard it pronounced this way. And I’ve listened to the CEO of AP speak in person.
Dear sir Kevin! May I ask you a question, please? So, If i buy the watch without a box and original paper, does its value still increase or not? Thank you for your reply. i am a fan of your channel.
Dat Nguyen yes it will but not much depending what you have and the cosmetics. You have to be specific with what you have.
All great watches and he is correct about how the prices appreciate with these brands. Do your hw, but he is correct. I would love it if he would drop the pretension and pronounce "collection" normally. I suspect that 99% of the down votes are because of that and putting gawdy red bands on rolexes :) Anyway, solid advice if you can get these watches. It will take time as he said.
@@mpdeviney You make good points. Perhaps my original post lacked appropriate nuance. All I can say is that from my own very modest forays into the pre-owned luxury watch game, I have made money so far. Admittedly, not much. By being patient and staying within my financial means, I have owned 3 low-end Rolexes, 2 Cartiers, and 3 Bulgaris (yes, the last two are basically jewelry, but i enjoyed wearing them), and was able to sell them all for more than I paid. The increase ranged from several hundred to a couple thousand, but it was enough for me as this is a hobby and i am a minnow. Anyway, i got to enjoy the watches, and no money was lost. The Bulgari price increases were due to the increase in the price of precious metals these days. I should be honest about that. If anyone is wondering, the Rolexes were Datejusts and an Explorer. Not expensive models, but that seems to help sell them as more people can afford to buy. Do your hw, stay within your means, and be patient :)
@@mpdeviney I like your approach (5 × 2k rather than 1 × 10k). You can enjoy a lot of superb pieces that way. I have seen Michael the Producer's videos. He was the person who introduced me to Jacob & Co. I was pretty shocked by the prices! :) I think you and I are probably on the same page with regards to Richard Mille, Jacob & Co., etc. and watches costing in excess of 100,000 pounds. They are just so far beyond me price-wise, that I mostly ignore them. I am torn over how i feel about them as watches, but the prices are exorbitant. Basically, even if i had the money to consider one of those watches, I would stick with the Big Three or more expensive Rolexes, Omegas, etc.I just like them better :)
Interesting…I guess you’re right. But will see if I can invest in lower prices watches.
I’m a French speaker and I think it’s funny when he says « collection », hehe.
Dude... that red rubber strap on those Rolexes are hideous not to mention sacrilegious!
A bracelet is not a permanent modification, and thus us snobs dont mins too much. Bezel replacements, display casebacks and bejewelment are the 3 worst sins for a rolex
I think Patek will always be a great investment
He said the “Julian Bracelet!“
Come on Kevin.
Joe Gatta julian is french for jubilee.
@@entw168 lol. No it's not. Jubile is French for jubilee
He’s just promoting RUBBER B,....because he is an INVESTOR in it,...
I love how he says double your investment but the dealers wont sell it to you
As an online trader it doesn't matter how I look or what I wear. Online markets of all kinds.
If you can find a product below wholesale which has demand you can sell it for more. Also knowing where the market is also important.
Personally selling watches will require you to invest a good portion of capital on product which may sit. Unless that watch is in high demand.
Kevin O'Leary got rich through his business. Watches is more of a hobby for him.
Don't watch this thinking it's a get rich living selling watches. Unless you have a spare 50k to 100k to invest not to mention hunting the watches.
Oh and then there is a massive amount of counterfeit watches thanks to China!
Waste of time!!!
Kevin, great collection. Just got my Pepsi a few weeks ago at retail. May pick up the red Rubber b band. Looks really good!
Nice
‘You can see through the back quartz’??? Lol come onnnn

Jesus Kevin, you have so much knowledge. Amazing.
I agree, my dad just sold his Rolex GMT mater (Pepsi) 1966 with GILT dial for $40,000 with box/papers. I wanted him to hold on to it, but he sold it.
Rick Riccardi damn should have hold and pass it down to you.
Kevin,
Perfect 6 watches, literally my six favorite & exact collection I'm after. A year ago last week I purchased my first piece the new Pepsi GMT II after having my first big year in real estate. I will never forget the feeling of being one of the first people in the country with that watch and how it felt and I've truly enjoyed it every day since. I'm on the list for both the batman & hulk. The other two are out of my league for now. Being that your a high profile guy representing the Rubber B brand you should implore them to making rubber straps for our new GMT's where you can use the Rolex clasp. I've been begging for a year, but they might listen if you request it. Great video, keep kicking ass!
How sad is this: you own a really great collection (or „collexcionnn“) of wonderful watches and all you can do is wear them with ugly red rubber straps 😩
Just discovered these videos today. Facinating! Is there any reason why Novato isn't mentioned? I'm new to this. Please help.

"Accoutrement", " un je ne sais quoi ", "collection" pronounced with a French accent ... umm ... do you say "know how" or "savoir faire" ?
If you love watch collecting and for some reason want to develope a profound hatred for it please watch this video.

Very well said.
U don't invest, you get emotionally involved to a brand. My investment is close to minus 30%. Like Panerai, Omega seamaster. But I feel it... I have some far 3 watches n I'm happy, isn't that whole purpose?
I love a man in a good watch, its their accessory that is necessary while doing high end business. No belt watches please, quick butterfly clip is best.
