Just reviewed this video. People, let me tell you this....Roman is one class act...what you see on You Tube does not tell the real picture of the great person that Roman is. He is clearly one of a kind. Let us all enjoy him. Be Well my friend.
He is just is one of the guys I can attest to a bunch of us collector buyers bumping into each other in NYC. Funny how often it happens too! Like watch people run the metropolis but just so we can holler out to each other on the street in site and suddenly 7 or more collectors are circling each other to see some new toy or treasure. Fun!
As always this is just my opinion, I've been watching you now for about 4 years 6 months and I'm telling you you're on the road videos when you're at trade shows are some of the best, I'm not discounting the other stuff that you do it's great it's fine, but as far as being the best in my opinion it's the on the road shows, keep up the good work man I love Miami kind of like my second home, take care.
Roman I'm a young new fan of yours but you're really teaching me about the watch "world" and making me look forward to buy my first proper watch from you . That aside i am actually from aruba and work in the touristic area so I thought it would've been cool to see you around there even by chance at least but I hope you come back to our sunny island man take care
New to this industry- curious to learn..I like your style- thx for keeping it real and not being so full yourself that you cant be human.Don't lose that!!. Subcribed!
meeting your client and having dinner with his family it says a lot how much a good person you are and care about your clients... Please show us more about negotiating the price with other dealers because I'm learning as well. thank you again for the epic video, I enjoyed very much. God bless you
I first saw you at watch box and now this vid. I am glad to you took me to a glimpse of your trip along with how humble yet shark of a smart man to buy watches. Awesome vid !
Hi Roman, first of all, it's an excellent video yet again. I especially like these trade shows and the interactions with other dealers. I think you should have a sit-down with Bob Maron again (in depth). The topics you discuss with him make me speechless every time. Keep up the great work and all the best for this year!
Miami is a huge watch market for new and pre-owned watches and what a treat to see this Trade Show through your eyes, wheeling and dealing. It just so happens I was in Miami around the same time you were there and recognize you had dinner at Carpaccio. Love the video shots too of Miami Bal Harbour Shops, downtown, and Sunny Isles. Thanks for sharing.
Hands down. I learn more from your videos and am more engaged in the content than any other watch site including Hodinkee. Thank you and keep up with the great content!
Hi Roman, could you list all the biggest watch trade shows globally. which one do think it's the best for hunting for deals on non vintage patek, ap and vc? thanks in advance
Random questions: Will the show organizer get angry when you overlay a Family Feud graphic indicating how little of the changes suggested would be implemented? Are there any dealers you dislike and won't deal with it all regardless of the inventory they have? Or are you a dispassionate businessman who doesn't let personal relations get in the way of any good deal from any party? Thanks, Great content as usual.
I find it mind blowing that someone would buy a $20K/$30K/$50K++ timepiece off some dude basically selling it out of a suitcase...that just exceeds my level of trust.
I love that everyone else loves Miami. I've moved in and out of South Florida a few times, but it's always been my favorite place on Earth... and I've been all over the world many many times.
@@jajayaboy Miami is a very safe city. It wasn't during the 1980s... but crime has gone down significantly since then. In the past 10 years... there's so much money there that the poor can't afford to live in even the poorest neighborhoods anymore.
Great video .what would interest me is how do these guys from different US states and even different countries work the export /import duties when they buy/sell swap .
@@RomanSharf Hi Roman thanks for that, i was wondering as i had conflicted & still confusing information that if as a private buyer of a used watch in NYC which was shipped to me on holiday at a friends place in Miami i would not be charged tax, others have said i will be charged 6%. so was interested how it works for you guys. Here in the "united states of europe" its somewhat easier .
When did u start going to shows I’m wondering if we met before at the shows. I quit going in 2000-01 after kids retail store . Just turned 50 in Dallas loved Miami show for the weather BigBang they couldn’t give those away back in the day they sure tried until they went Boutique only brand I believe. I loved talking with Burly he was quite the hoot and wealth of knowledge.
It's so satisfying to see people trading hard like this. The only this is a lot of it seems a bit shady. So many of these watches are no box or papers.
Hey rom! U say trade shows r dying off!? How bad is it and can u look into your crystal ball and tell us when or if u think they will die completely!?? Thx jamie
The trade shows are the best! It's good to see the face behind the comments here. I always read Steven P comments. Beautiful family with amazing taste for watches. I didn't know buyers had to pay to go to these shows. With more and more people interested in the world of watches, with Instagram serving as a powerful tool in this market (like dictating what will be the next hot pieces), no entry fees would attract more buyers and admirers of horology, that will talk about these trade shows, that will make this things became viral on social media.
Awesome Miami trade show, It is very nice traveling the world watches trade shows to buy and sell watches.. I Like Roman IWC Perpetual Calendar, Steven P Oris Big Pilot, the gold brick Audemars Piguet, the gold Breguet Marine and the chandelier diamond watches.
Roman Nice video. We've met last year at the Miami Beach Antique Show. Just an idea - maybe next time you can have a dinner with some fans here in Miami. Be nice to spend some time with you John
I really like the trade show videos. Seemingly a friendly and competitive environment. I feel like it gives me some insight into the grey watch market. Also, It makes me feel a whole lot more comfortable buying watches from the grey market. Thank you for all your effort in creating these videos and for sharing your knowledge and experience in watches.
its all about trusted dealers in the room, no one dealer there would ever risk their reputation by selling a fake. Have there been cases maybe once in 5 years where it was just that good of a fake
Nice video Roman and interesting / sad to see how trade show is empty. Your editor should have overlayed a small clip Will Smith - Miami when you said you're going to Miami
Great video. Amazing to see how many watches there are and different models that deletes have. Like the PGA show these watch shows should open up to public to be able to meet the dealers and directly buy from them as well.
Hi Roman, quick question for you to answer if you had 50k to buy 1 Rolex and 1AP One gold and one steel what would you go for lets take into consideration you're favourite kind of watches that you also feel could potentially hold value over the next 5-10 years.. I know there is no crystal ball but you're opinion would help me out right now as this is the situation I am in. thanks love the content, And just want to mention how I would never trust anyone with this amount of money online however seeing you're youtube channel and how legit and honest you are I would not hesitate to buy off you..
Hey Roman, Love your videos mate, I’ve only started to tune in about a week ago and I’m glued to your channel. I have a question for your Q and A. What’s your thoughts on getting a watch polished and if you are for it, would it damage the look for a watch for example if it was a bi metal watch like the Rolex 126331 where the steel on the watch has a different polishing finish than the gold on the watch. Keep up the great videos and lots of love from Australia.
ProducerMichael and Adam are awesome, I couldn't agree more. I was amazed with how humble they both are. Really lovely people. As for my videos, thanks for watching and for becoming a subscriber. Comments like this make my day

Meeting your client and family was a class act. He will be your client forever. I enjoyed watching this. let me know when you're in LA!
Love the trade show videos. The haggling, price discussions, advice, etc - they are your best content.
These trade show videos are my favorite. Great content, great people and awesome watches!

Awesome video Roman. My wife and I enjoy watching your videos on Saturday nights before we go out to dinner.

Fantastic trade show vlog. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for making these.
Very cool.
Roman where do you buy your v necks always looking sharp.
How do you avoid buying a fake/replica at these trade shows with an on the spot inspection?
Another awesome job. Never fails !!!!
Thanks Dimitris!
Well done comrade. another awesome show and a good lesson on how to treat your friends and business clients. Privet from Australia.
Thanks Boris, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Roman another great episode keep em coming!!
Hands down. I learn more from your videos and am more engaged in the content than any other watch site including Hodinkee. Thank you and keep up with the great content!
Hey Roman. Love the Rhodesian Ridgeback hair style. Think I might try it out myself, except in a light grey!
Awesome, thanks for that, great to watch.
Love Fed. Watching everything u r putting out roman
Hi Roman, could you list all the biggest watch trade shows globally. which one do think it's the best for hunting for deals on non vintage patek, ap and vc? thanks in advance
Roman That is how you do it, loved it, opa!

JLo yeah dude - this whole operation is shady as shit.
More trade show videos. Love these vids
I love that everyone else loves Miami. I've moved in and out of South Florida a few times, but it's always been my favorite place on Earth... and I've been all over the world many many times.
i thought miami was dangerous to live

What trade shows would be best for general public. Like me, to go to buy used watchs.?
First time viewer. Cool stuff. Where was that video of the houseboats on a beach taken? Now I want to take my family there😊
If you are talking about the beginning of the video those were shot of Aruba
Roman Sharf anywhere specifically? Looks so cool.
Just like always, great video Roman! Always learning from you! Hopefully one day I can meet you in person! Cheers all the way from LA!
Maybe one day I could have a meet and greet in LA. 😉
A great review and video... thank you
Thanks for watching Robinson!
Love these Trade Show episodes, please make many more. 👍⌚️
Thanks Clive, I definitely plan on it 👊
Awesome, Steven P is wearing a version of the watch I bought in NYC for my 25th wedding anniversary! Good choice sir!
Great video .what would interest me is how do these guys from different US states and even different countries work the export /import duties when they buy/sell swap .
Well in US its all B2B so no sales tax, other countries they guys that buy import the stuff.
@@RomanSharf Hi Roman thanks for that, i was wondering as i had conflicted & still confusing information that if as a private buyer of a used watch in NYC which was shipped to me on holiday at a friends place in Miami i would not be charged tax, others have said i will be charged 6%. so was interested how it works for you guys.

Sonny hitting them hard @ 16:28 Running big deals.
Just found your page recently, loving the content!!
When did u start going to shows I’m wondering if we met before at the shows. I quit going in 2000-01 after kids retail store . Just turned 50 in Dallas loved Miami show for the weather
BigBang they couldn’t give those away back in the day they sure tried until they went Boutique only brand I believe.
I loved talking with Burly he was quite the hoot and wealth of knowledge.
It's so satisfying to see people trading hard like this. The only this is a lot of it seems a bit shady. So many of these watches are no box or papers.
Great videos. I feel like im traveling with you. What a crazy world..
That's definitely the idea :) for you to tag along!
Hi ROMAN
When is your next watch show to go?
Jajajaja funny part about the Punch 1🤜, Punch 2 🤜, ... cuadriple Punch🤜 on the rolex drama jajaja, great video Roman!!
Roman..have you had a chance to see the Prometheus by Era up close.. ? I'd be interested to know what your opinion is on it..
Clients are keepers when it passes from father to son.
Keep it going Roman. ⌚️👍🏼
Again great Video thanks ! Greetings from Austria/Vienna
Hey rom! U say trade shows r dying off!? How bad is it and can u look into your crystal ball and tell us when or if u think they will die completely!?? Thx jamie
Loving the content Roman! Where do we give you the questions for QnA Tuesday?

Thanks so much for watching Hana!
Awesome video as always Roman, really gave me a feel for the business👍🏻
learning alot from you and nico
Great channel.
I bought my first luxury watch because of this channel
A solid rolled gold Oris.

I should plan this ahead of time you are right, maybe make an announcement on a video and get a head count!

The best UA-cam ever
Is it easy to get screwed with a counterfiet watch here? I dont see how its avoidable.
its all about trusted dealers in the room, no one dealer there would ever risk their reputation by selling a fake. Have there been cases maybe once in 5 years where it was just that good of a fake
@@RomanSharf Do the buyers still look at them with a loupe before pulling the trigger?
Any interesting watches you see on flights since you travel so much?
Another amazing and informative video. Is breaking plates a tradition or just his tradition?
Nice video Roman and interesting / sad to see how trade show is empty. Your editor should have overlayed a small clip Will Smith - Miami when you said you're going to Miami

Thanks Marley, love your profile pic btw. Is that a Simpsons character or did you have that made?
Thank you, Roman. I loved the content!
I love these videos😀😀😀😀
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoy them
Hey Roman, I know you have heard the song, Efuge By Stelios Kazantzidis!
Loved the Rolex Drama segment 🤣

Can we get a Q&A Tuesday with Bob Maron in the future? I liked his last guest appearance and he seems like a really cool guy too
Second this, loved the Bob Maron video!
indeed more Bob!
Let's ask Bob. 😀
One of my favorite vids! Keep up the amazing content. Cheer's.........................
Thanks, dude, happy to hear it.
Roman Sharf Welcome 👍!
Bob maron is a gem
You didn't visit AP in Bal Harbor???
I have to ask, how come almost all the watches from US comes with no papers? In Sweden they are impossible to sell...

My favorite part, the negotiations at the end: "Nothing is selling."
"That's your fault, your mark-up is too high!"
I never even new the bretling emergency exists?!?! That’s so cool
Thank you Roman.
I'm here from producer michael love the content I've been binge watching your videos

Great post as always! I am pretty new to the channel so apologies if you’ve answered this before, Can anyone buy at trade shows ?
Keep up the good work. Regards, Giorgia Mondani.
How does this guy not have 100,000 subscribers?
Working on it 😉
