Thanks for sharing Frederico 👍
Very helpful video! Thanks Federico
Great tips. Thanks Fed.
Thank you for another interesting and informative video Federico :)
Thank you so much for your advice! God bless you sir
Great video! Thank you!
Excellent vid as usual, love the shirt!
Great information.
Thanks Fed. You and John P rock.
Good tips, thx!
Great video. Tip on the links (wrist size fit) is often overlooked!
Good video Federico. I like the new video intro!!👍
Thanks Federico 👍
Great video
Thanks Fed! It was a pleasure meeting you on the phone today and I appreciate your help. I hope you and yours have a fruitful and healthy 2019.
Thanks so much Joe! Pleasure was all mine.
Bomb video, Fed.
FedEx screwed up two deliveries to me, both stated "package left at door", and both times, no package. Once the package never showed up, and the other time it was at my neighbors. I have had good luck with USPS when I sell relatively cheap watches, but I would think twice on something worth more. UPS I think is the way to go. Good vid as always Federico, thank you!
Yup good video, I’ve made the mistake of using usps and lost a Seiko Alpinist ! Thanks 🙏
shirt on point fed!
That Ming is pretty good. Noticed it on your wrist straight off the bat, it really pops.
I hurt myself a few times not asking about “wrist size”. I have a 8-1/4” wrist and I’ve had to get new straps for a few because I forgot to ask. It sucks! Thanks Fed!
the thumbnail on the top left corner, looks like the shop front of a Hong Kong dealer on Nathan Street...
Hi Federico,
I have been following your channel heavily the past couple of weeks! I am looking to get my first higher end timepiece. I went from Nixon to Fossil and finally to Bulova. However, after starting small like most, I want to step it up a notch. I have fallen in love with a few MontBlanc Models, specifically the Star and Meisturstuck. Any Input on MontBlanc as my first step up watch?
Thank You,
Casey
Helpful, thank you!
And ohhhhhh man, I want that 15k Gauss!! Maybe later this year ;)
Great video as usual!! I will say that I will never use FEDex, and request packages be sent to me via UPS or USPS. we just had a bad storm roll through my area, and FEDex is refusing to make delivery to my friends house, because he lives in the mountains, never mind his road is paved, cleared, and has been for the past week.
Yeah that kind of sucks... I just cant deal with the USPS customer service.
Federico, There is a watch out there I feel it is under appreciated, can you Review it please. ( TC1 Dietrich). ?
All good sound advise Fed. Having said that they could tell you anything and once they have your money....
Therefore always buy from Delray Watch and nobody else!!! 😁 I only charge $25 dollars per shameless plug by the way 😉
Federico what do you think of the new watch brand Reservoir ..... what's your view on new brands? Reservoir do have an interesting way of showing time that I like.
Thanks for making this video fed I’ve always asked/wanted this. You look great brother.
Thank you Sam :) !
UPS is ok. Fed Ex is always a pain to get things on time. Have had much better luck with USPS.
If international from Europe to the US, DHL is a fine option as well.
Great servicing of this shirt to our eyes......look athletic in this shirt
What's your opinion for AVI 8 watches?
Hey guy's. Is the ETA 2892A2 a luxury movement? Should I discount or select one watch over another based on the movement? I'm interested in a Swiss watch I can't find any info for other than it's name La Vallee, and movement.
Is DHL ok I know that some European grey market dealers use them
Hi Federico, I hope you can comment on this one. It has been almost two years I want to buy a Jaeger-LeCoultre Q2068570 for my collection. I really respect JLC for what they do and did, but they loose in price on the second market. Do you think I should just buy them finally even though they will not retain the price?
I would take great exception to the suggestion that FedEx is preferable to USPS or UPS. I have had way too many bad experiences with FedEx and their "customer service" is the worst! For whatever reason the company has taken a steep dive and are no longer what they once were.
I agree. Fedex is the pits. Prefer USPS. UPS for an expensive watch.
@@Valvey789 USPSbetter than Fedex? Hahahahaha!
After dealing with Fedex for online orders I always specify NO FEDEX PLS on buyers notes or email seller if that is not available. Fedex sux big time pun very much intended
Hi Fed, Ironically I just sent you my watch for service via FedEx, but they limit the insurance to $1000. I don't know about UPS but the post office goes to at least $2000. The cost is roughly $1 for each $100 of insurance. Thanks again for your videos !
Hi David,
If you print your label online they should lift that insurance limit. The fedex stores are usually the ones that limit insurance.
Thanks - I didn't know that ! @@FedericoTalksWatches
I've insured items for over 20,000 with Fedex! Wasn't cheap, but you can't really put a price on peace of mind!
Hi Mike, yes -- apparently the insurance limit varies according to the item being shipped and whether or not you print the label before going to the store as Fed pointed out. At the retail store, they limited the insurance to $1K for a watch.
Make a video on how to sell used watches please.
One question I always ask when buying anything of significant value is, "Is it all original?"
Hey Federico, I am planning to purchase a second hand Rolex Pepsi GMT. I have two deals. One with papers, box and tags and the other with just the watch. The latter deal is $2k cheaper. My question is, how important are the box and papers? And how much will they roughly affect the future value of the watch. Thank you.
Box papers and tag is always good to have. I would take the one that is more expensive. But that is just me
DHL is also fine
I can’t 100% agree with the shipping methods, I have had 2 watches stolen via UPS, one was a watch going to Baume Mercier for service about 20 years ago where I was still somewhat a rookie and didn’t insure it. That was a loss to me. The second was from an AD where it was insured so they shipped me another. Here is the thing, we have heard about UPS and FedEx drivers being fired for theft, they get fired and go work for another shipping company. At USPS, it’s a federal offense to steal and carries hefty jail time so I believe people think twice. I trust USPS registered where tracking is very transparent. Or for USPS GXG where you can insure up to $5000 for international destinations.
Our insurance unfortunately wont cover USPS... Its not about theft its about things literally just getting lost and not showing up. Ive shipped over 600 packages this year UPS and fedex. We have had a few delays but nothing was ever damaged or gone missing... Just my experience though.
Pedant alert: "Worth his weight in gold" or "Worth his salt", not "worth his weight in salt". All kidding aside great list!
Salt used to be pretty expensive pound for pound though.
@@ElijsDima That's true - hence the "worth his salt" expression - the word salary comes from the Latin for salt so it means they're worth what we're paying them.
👍👏🇸🇪
Thanks for watching!
USPS, what do you expect from a government service?
USPS Post Office employees are the worst. The worst of the worst from the bunch. Rude, Loud all in all its Horrible Customer Service. And they're still in business the problem is there is no competition in the physical local post office part of the business. There is competition in postal service but not in the physical local post office section. Also wanted to mention FedEx service is crap in my location.
You expect good service. That’s what taxes are supposed to be for.
@@paulbelopolsky7460 In reality when does the government ever provide good service? We all hate the DMV, TSA agents. All of these institutions are rude and have total contempt for customers.
FjFj, there are certain services the government provides that couldn’t be provided by a private company. The postal service is one of them. Unless of course you want to pay UPS or Fedex prices to send your mail. As for the DMV or TSA, you really think that you could privatize those services? You ready to pay a lot more for your plane tickets or parking tickets? Perhaps you should take a look at some examples of privatizing government functions like certain prisons or private security firms used by the Pentagon and see how much they’re costing the American taxpayer.
@@paulbelopolsky7460 We already pay for all of those things through taxes, if they were privatized the overall cost would be the same except it would be paid for when the service is used instead of through taxes. Also the only way to increase standards is through competition which is why government monopolies always suck.
FEDEX is the worst delivery service ever
