What started out as a channel I’d just come to for ‘miring wealth in jewelry form has turned into a full blown favorite educational channel. Incredible.

[@acidicdic4305]

For real, I just loved the way that max would pose the lights on the jewels, but it turned into a bill nye lesson with eye candy 😂

[@StonksLifestyle]

This happens to be one of my best investment pieces! Thinking of getting another one, I’d probably hit up Trax…

[@Otis-the-III]

What type do you have?

[@StonksLifestyle]

Well, I wear a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona!!

[@LiquidityOcelot]

@@StonksLifestyle​​⁠ Quite elegant dude! You’ve got to be making thousands of dollars to afford such a watch. Hope you don’t mind, what do you do for work?

[@StonksLifestyle]

I’m a pastry chef however, I recently just got into the financial markets and who would have thought it would be a game changer for me! With 30k invested into Stocks and the Non Farm Payroll I’ve earned about $270k profit in barely four months.

[@gordonramsthis]

I’ve heard about the financial trades market, albeit I didn’t know it could be this profitable.💰 Astounding!

[@ZayBucket]

When I get my first Rolex I'm going to drive from Baltimore to New York to buy from Trax. The most open and honest man in the jewelry business

[@TraxNYCDiamondJewelry]

I appreciate that my man 🤝 look forward to having you at the shop

This is the content I like watching. Trax doing all that cursing, fake drama, your stupid, hating on other jewelers, is corny. This dude should do more videos. Informative and he carried himself well through the video.

Great video. No nonsense. I’m going to shop at your store when I visit NYC

Thanks guys this was super informative and the other video was about the watches. You really make someone confident and spending money this level, especially at the entry level. It’s funny everybody looks a little rough in the shop, but the more trustworthy and a guy in a suit.

[@FharishAhmedPortfolio]

TBH Thank You for making a video like this! Gave me some information, that I didn't even know! Thank you again! Please make more videos like these! Don't get me wrong, love watching Nico, but, his caffeine driven antics literally just shift from the og subject at hand! He's more like a KZbinr nowadays. Somebody calm is always welcome.

How much would a 36 SS Datejust, fluted bezel, jubillee with and roman steel/rhodium or mop dial go for?

[@tyrancopeland8573]

thanx for info yeah a 36 is what i had before

[@newerabarbershop6566]

Gotcha best advice I’ve herd, buy an entry level wear it a year or 2 bring it back with money on top & keep upgrading, I know I will till I get my presidential

[@tacotom3492]

People hate on the "old" man 2 tone but my dad wore it and It always was class.. jubilee. Champagne. ✌️

[@hammondd2000]

New age self proclaimed watch experts just started calling the 2 tone that, I have had my 18k two tone datejust since about 1993 that I bought for $2500 second hand thats consider vintage now. Datejust where so popular back then and where considered the banker/ Dress watch for business professionals. Recent independent appraisal for insurance says its $6890 replacement cost now .

[@scotth3776]

Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge......definitely makes a person comfortable with spending money......I like the fact he has something for everyone no matter your budget and he takes the time to explain things and price points and the little differences

[@user-db6cp4hv4y]

They’re all so beautiful, iwiSSh icudd afford 1… Ohhph, ohwell …atleast it is free to admire them from a distance away

[@sirrealsam]

Aren't the box and papers only valuable with the corresponding watch to have a more authentic one? What do you do with the papers if the customer doesn't purchase it with the watch?

[@JimmyJump813]

Hey Trax can you do a video on making a custom Rolex? I wanna come by for that

[@varunislife4558]

Do you prefer older? If it depends please explain

[@bigmoneygrifff203]

Great presentation! I've thought about buying a Rolex many times in my life. And, I'm 61 years old at the moment. I have a lot of watches and I like them. But, I can't justify spending so much money for a watch when all it does is tell the time! 😊

[@TheTmcemc]

I would like to authenticate my Rolex Submariner do I need an appointment and will the authentication be preformed in my presence?

[@thevampirecielphantomhive2342]

I just bought a 1991 Rolex datejust 36mm two tone yellow gold with diamond dial and bezel the dial is aftermarket aswell as the crystal face, I purchased it from Jared pre-owned for 12,500 it had a third party authenticity card no rolex certification but i took it to a former rolex dealer to get a second opinion and he knew immediately that it was real with two aftermarket parts

[@tavonsimmons7092]

Enjoyed the video but was really waiting for the day dates 😢

Very nice watch 👌

Deberian hacer videos en español tambien jejeje

[@user-ui5ex3rh3q]

Nice watch

[@rk702]

Slight error in your information concerning bracelet stretch. Polishing has virtually no effect on bracelet stretch, what’s more important is how the watch had been worn, if Worn loose, the head moves more and as a result puts more stress on the pins in the bracelet which then causes stretch.

[@yashukumar14]

Hey appreciate the comment man and support these factors you mention are 💯 true , I mainly use the factor of polishing because many of these watches tend to be over polished. They’re passed through so many hands that the amount of times the watch is polished can reach up to 7-8x. Polishing a watch once will have a slight affect with the combination of factors you listed. Polishing a watch 7-8x (which many watch dealers tend to do) will have a major factor in terms of the stretch of the bracelet. Metal between the links gets shaven down which means a bigger gap between the links. This comes from the years of experience of selling and polishing watches at Trax ourselves and handling hundreds of thousands of watches over the years from different dealers as well.

[@dimemonhat9256]

Good 👍😊

[@HarlemBlingReviews]

Ima buy everything in this video

[@jayc4715]

Nah you ain't gonna buy jack

[@FZHANGLFE]

It's not the measure of the face of the watch. It's the measurement from one side of the case to other, usually from the 2 o'clock to the 8 o'clock position.

[@TraxNYCDiamondJewelry]

Thank you for the correction

[@auxmike718]

Those prices are steep!

[@Makszi]

Nice

[@paulmurphy8993]

On a side note I'm amazed at how this brand has captured the imagination of the general public for decades. I even heard that Rolex won't legally go after the factories that make counterfeit versions because they think it's good publicity promoting their watches even if they're fake because it keeps the name of Rolex in the public square.

[@billtorres9880]

There awesome I love Rolex ❤️them

[@xXMilad96NXx]

What watches were made with an Arabic dial?

[@ryanmax-grappler8654]

They should have tight security to avoid flash mov style robberies. Them Rolex are like over 30k eqch

[@brandonbf57]

How do I start buying and selling Rolex’s? What should I look for, how much of a profit margin should I look to gain?

Think not briefly explaining that the color of the bezel on a sub can have major differences in price

[@kantivutcharoenwong310]

My favorite is definitely a Sub! I’ll be happy if this is the only Rolex I have for the rest of my life.

[@MRSTEEL15]

Box and papers should not be a fee. That's bad business. Just quote a complete price w/o saying box and paperwork are extra

[@yashukumar14]

Hey man appreciate the support and your comment ! I was more so separating the different values that individual items such as the original box and papers add on to the watch but won’t affect the liquidity of the watch itself for someone who has a Rolex that’s trying to sell or trade them in.

How much money is a diamond Rolex watch

[@Glenn-wn8cw]

realistically for a Rolex in good condition with box and paper your looking at 65-1000 5k-6k is a little low to start

[@johnflynn6140]

why do people think a 36mm is only for women and kids ( comment in this section ) it is only in the last 15 years that the "normal" watch size is is up 39-43mm for some men, I just don't get this there is not a huge difference between a 40mm and a 36mm, I think women watches are 32mm and down, anything 33mm-39mm is/can be a unisex and 40mm-45mm are men's IMHO.

2-Tone. Datejust. Fluted. Jubilee. 100% classic. Will look great seventy years from now. Wouldn’t buy a used one for $100. Too many fakes. Also I think I’m the only person that likes the black dial or even the silver over the champagne/gold dials.
