What a dream selection, the Duality always gets me man. Good presentation as always Wei!

[@Nefville]

I would love to meet Phillipe Dufour and the privilege of owning one of his timepieces is so amazing, oh I wish I could get one. Also I am noticing the bridge with the horns on the first wristwatch there, that bridge is long, if you make one mistake the whole thing has to be scrapped and melted down, imagine the difficulty. Just amazing.

Philippe Dufour is really the grail to own, forget Patek, AP or Rolex.

[@zetoch]

What a crazy line up. My head keeps spinning after seeing all those marvels at once.

[@vgcamara]

Absolutely amazing! Thanks for making and sharing this Wei 👍

[@pietrocarducci]

I say we owe Mr. Philippe Dufour a standing ovation as well as our utmost gratitude, because there has probably never been a man that influenced the watch industry as much as him since Abraham-Louis Breguet😁🙏👏

[@wwss5806]

Quite a stretch, really. Dufour set the standard on finishing in our lifetime and has to be applauded for that, whereas Breguet was an inventor whose work advanced horology in a more technical fashion. Dufour is more the artist, like the Delacroix of the same period; Breguet's modern version is probably somewhere among the Daniels/Journe of our time.

@@wwss5806 he was also the one that invented the grande et petite sonnerie while breguet made the tourbillon

[@willseeya7134]

⁠​⁠@@ap_pp_vc I think you mean he was the first to put a grande et petite sonnerie movement in a wrist watch. Such movements were already in pocket watches at least two centuries ago. That is not to take away from the achievement of getting such a movement into a wearable timepiece of course.

Beautiful and historical. Will be interesting to see the results.

[@bastienpotentier]

I learnt a lot watching this video! Thank you for sharing.

[@donkykon2094]

Thank you for explaining all the technical details, very interesting indeed me lad!

[@remigerard5115]

Le rêve ultime 🌟

[@wwss5806]

Love the style Wei!

[@Peter_WongVI]

Beauties! Thanks Wei.

[@WatchMeEDC]

Wei and team - I haven’t watched all your videos but I’ve seen a lot. To me, this may be the best video I have seen to date from you. Amazing exclusive access to multiple historic horological pieces, incredible history and provenance lessons, combined with little known facts presented in your wonderful casual self and style. Outstanding work and well done 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@yashara1e]

Just wow

[@joshn.5625]

Great watches and great storytelling.

[@MSchuits]

Haven't even watched and already 'liked'

[@YongJoonPaek]

This is fricken insane...

[@Voltanaut]

I love that this mega watch nerd is wearing a Black Flag shirt.

[@Lexcoaster]

Presenting beautiful million dollar watches, all the while wearing a Black Flag t-shirt. :D

[@dhananjayringe]

"10 million is reasonable price for this watch" Very reasonable if you ask me

[@thlee3]

he prolly did this in one take

[@maximme]

nowadays angels in Shenzhen are doing ALL the work. Note NONE of the watches qualify for the label " Made in Switzerland". The Swiss government has been frustrated with even the loosen label " Swiss Made" when 100% of the watch was clearly Made in Shenzhen

[@humanitech]

Great workmanship but sadly it says more about the insanity and craziness of human reality

[@theannouncer5538]

Phillipe: *finishes painstaking work on a fine watch* Guy: *slams it in a car door* Phillipe: 🥲

[@ziyanzhang1735]

This is truly pornography for me....

Are they shock resistant?
