“Selling Rolex to buy iconic watches is actually good” Those words really sum up the journey many of us find to be true. Another great video based upon real passion for watches, which is what it should all be about!

I once waited on Jacque Cousteau. It was the mid-1970's. And I was working in a "HiFi Shop" in Mid-Town Manhattan. Cousteau wanted a 4 Channel Reciever. But They were ALL Monsters. I even showed Him a Products DIRECTORY Issue of AUDIO MAGAZINE; which showed All the Brands.. NONE would fit the space allocated on the "Calypso" .... oh well. He was very pleasant & affable, with a Big Smile .... Nice Man.

@@BraveBeaters ok, after watching your videos about Doxa, I'm definitely on the hunt for a 300T! So it's easy for the model, because for me it's the most iconic in their catalogue. But now the problem is the color. The easy choice would be the orange, but I already own an orange diver. Same for the black Sharkhunter, because I have a Squale 1521. So, at the end, for my taste the match is between the blue Caribbean, maybe too classic, the yellow Divingstar, maybe too much in the long term, the Aquamarine, probably the right mix between fun and wearability and last the Whitepearl. Waiting to see them in person, Andrei what would you suggest ? Thank you and keep going with the great job your doing on the channel for all us watch maniacs!

I had a blue Sub 300 in stainless steel but found the bezel markings hard to read underwater so I sold it. Otherwise a very nice and comfortable watch, good finishing, COSC movement and actually OK value for what it is. I am intrigued by the carbon Sub 300 because the markings are in white and actually legible, and what I need to decide is whether to go with blue or orange dial. Great video, as always!

I love the designs and the heritage but Doxa is a phoenix brand and I'm not convinced they own the history just yet. I have had various models in hand and always felt they were not quite up to the asking prices. After watching a video by "The Watch Guys" and his experience with the brand I decided to hold off. I bought a Seestern Ali Clomage and found it scratched my itch for the look, at least for now. The quality of manufacture is good and close to the new company's standard. I have seen Doxas with good discounts in sales. It might be I should look again. Personally the last watches I'd sell would be my Rolex watches.
