  • New Grey Market Episode: "My Plan to CRUSH $130 Million in Sales in 2024"
    • How I'm Going to Sell ... -~-
    Welcome back everyone to Episode 45 of What's On My Desk (WOMD). Now, you guys know that I typically say that watches are an expensive toy but there are some exceptions to the rule; that's specifically why I flew out to LA (I'm going, going, back, back, to Cali, Cali) to meet up with vintage watch expert Bob Maron.
    👇 FIND BOB HERE:
    Official Site: robertmaron.com
    Bob's Instagram: / bobmaron
    💎 Find your next watch @ bit.ly/2ze8jAd
    For both old and new collectors, if vintage watches are your thing, prepare yourself for an awesome presentation and get ready for your jaw to drop when you hear some of the prices. We'll educate you on why vintage watches today are indeed an investment, as well as the difference between vintage watches that over time have become collectibles, in comparison to the watches today that are manufactored as limited edition collectibles.
    Bob Maron has been a huge mentor to me and many years ago he told me that I was going places. I'm very glad his prediction came true.
    💬 Which watch blew your mind the most? And.. what do you think of our first episode in 4K?

    6:12 man! What a watch! I love the Bakelite. So much better with the darker richer color tones on the bezel then the reference that followed it. IMO

    Hi Roman,
    Thank you for an amazing vlog! The fact that you are a personal friend of the Buddha of the antique watch world, Mr Bob
    Maron, is amazing! His knowledge and experience is amazing!
    Also appreciate the fact that you personally delivered a watch, to one of your original customers. Shows your class as a person!
    I look fwd to the day that I buy my first watch from you! (It will obviously be an AP). Onwards and upwards, more power to you, Brother!

      Mr Choo this is all hear say. Just like when John Mayer accused mr Maron of selling him fake parts in vintage watches. Then John Mayer dropped the suit. There is no one better in the vintage watch game. You shouldn’t slander someone’s reputation based on hear say sir.

Not just a salesman, you have a real passion for what it is you sell. This was the most informative video I have seen on this channel. Maybe you need a separate channel but I would love to see a lot more of these. Some factory visits and interviews would be brilliant.

    I owned a Daytona Zenith which I sold in 2008 when I was unemployed during the financial crisis, I should have sold my 911 (993), which is a classic now but has not appreciated as much as the Daytona. I have a 2 line no date Sub, a Kermit, Hulk and Batman in my collection which I am definitely going to keep for the long term. I think I might have messed up with the Kermit as I had the bezel replaced because it was proper based up and in the UK they insist on doing a service, so the watch came back nice and shiny, thank god I did not replace the bracelet which Rolex recommended!!
