Proud of you Arch, sounds like you are coming full circle and achieving realisation of the BS that is todays watch hobby

[@JaymesTriglone]

So let's start seeing tasteful personality collections including the cheap sports quartz like your mate at tbg, theme doesn't sit with me like 10 dive watches .. but I'm not like the next guy .

[@thestig007]

Absolutely. That's why The Pontiff fits right into the hobby. Just go into massive debt and buy flex pieces. Everyone will think you're hot shit!

[@markbailey2713]

That's why Casio are considered "God Tier"

[@robintopper5617]

I was invited to a year end party, no one wear Rolex there; mostly Chinese made dress watches or Japanese quartz ; no one drive Mercedes; mostly 10 years old Japanese or Korean brand cars. But there’s plenty of beer, good meat lamb; pork; chicken bbq; grilled seafood . I heard sound of joy; I think that is true happiness.

[@BOTDDNA]

Well said. Archie set a wonderful counter-example of it, the only decent thing for him is his watch collection. Everything else, career, marriage, family, friendship you name it, it’s hard to find an average person doing worse than him. This vid earns my respect for Archie, he basically admit what he truely is.

What is happening now is exactly what happened in Sneaker business a few years back. Certain people/companies coming in and buying everything then driving the price up as they dump them on the secondary market. It’s not about the horology anymore but about making a fast buck. Once I saw that @sshole from Shark Tank involved and hanging out on Teddy’s channel(I unsubscribed immediately) I knew the watch game was destroyed…possibly forever.

Same thing happened with exotic cars. Used to drive around with friends in Daytonas, F40s, etc. Now - in addition to insanely high prices - most of those cars are rotting away on rich peoples "collections." Sad.

Fact, most rich people don't care about expensive watches. My friend who is a millionaire, owns a couple of G-Shocks, a couple of Citizens and a Seiko Pepsi Turtle.

[@tomroutledge8900]

Archie's confused...owning and liking something like watches isn't supposed to be akin to having a skill, talent, or profession. He's just now realizing this?? No wonder he's a sad and depressed guy

[@mohnnadmercedes8246]

Yes for rich hipsters,, but he cant admire seiko or squale

[@Stockholmspatriot]

Preach pontiff! The hoarding of watches and sticking them in a safe is absurd.

[@scottlalonde2878]

Great video, Arch.👍 However, isn't that kind of who you like to do watch reviews for? Few Genta steel trinity watches, few Patek complications, few Daytonas, and the six hottest Rolex steel sports for beaters. I can hear it now: Great collection! Don't sell anything!

[@juleswild9498]

While I don't disagree on that the whole public scene such as auctions etc going nuts (I mean over 90k for a Hulk...c'mon)...I do think that that greed, that illness has not corrupted every corner of this hobby. I'm a member of RedBar Switzerland and Turicum Watch Group and I can proudly say that the the shared passion for watches in those groups is genuine. Of course you'll have members with heavy hitters next to those with more affordable ones but the admiration for each others collection is real and truely wholesome. Depending on where on their horological journey one is and also depending on their taste we are all united in having dream watches we'll probably never own but that doesn't take away from the fact that the community is bigger than the sum of its parts. You could argue that maybe someone would silently envy another member for a watch or maybe someone would utter how they'd like to have a certain watch too, but never did that impact the community sentiment in any negative way and I am grateful for being part of it.

[@andreshultz8638]

Happiness is not about winning a competition; it’s about being recognized as successful through helping others in need. I feel people that buy luxury watches and feel successful is just faking himself. It’s like going to a trophy store buying a trophy and claim himself as a winner.

[@theprinceofrealestate]

It’s not a hobby to me it actually means something. The average hype chasing or rapper wannabe person with a Rolex or patek will never understand. I’ll always love the one watch guy more then the hype collector. I buy what’s in my heart not what the hypers suggest or think is cool. I’m kind of done with watches, it’s a different vibe now. When I 1st started it meant something to wear a Rolex, it meant you were a good guy with a good watch. Now it means your a hyperster following the Social media’s lol. I’m going to be a one watch guy… soon. Or maybe 3-4 watch guy lol. I hate that our love has come to this. ✌🏾

This reminds me of Jordans and hyped sneakers, you could’ve easily buy the hot kicks off the shelves back in the days. Now the hype collecting came in, the re-sellers and then the killings lol look on KZbin, sneaker collection of over 1,000 kicks. So sad, on to the next hobby 👉🏽

[@DWilliam1]

Exactly. Was talking to my boy about this a few months ago and what is happening now is exactly what happened in Sneaker business a few years back. Certain people/companies coming in and buying everything then driving the price up as they dump them on the secondary market. It’s not about the horology anymore but about making as fast buck. Once I saw that @sshole from Shark Tank involved and hanging out on Teddy’s channel(I unsubscribed immediately) I knew the watch game was destroyed…possibly forever.

[@golfinguru11]

The resell price basically becomes the new retail price. The difference is that Travis Scott Jordan 1s aren’t being mass-produced perpetually like Rolexes. They’re made once, released and onto the next. Also, you can go into Nike and actually buy sneakers in your size (albeit not the Travis Scotts) whereas Rolex shelves are fucking empty

[@frankv7068]

@@golfinguru11 No it’s exactly the same, try getting of pair if regular Jordan retro 1 - 14 original color way, Original retro Kobe Bryant, Original retro Lebron, Scotty Pippen,…. So on and so on release day or any other day. They are all mass produce, even Jordan 11 broke the record at making a million pair of retro 11 concord and they still sold out on release day, and people died. Travis Scot is a limited collaboration with Jordan Kinda like what patek did with tiffany but patek is beyond on steroids. I was in the sneaker game just like the watch game, back in the 90s and early 2000’s you could easily pick up the same sneakers and back before 2018 you could walk into a Rolex AD and pick up any Rolex models easily on the shelf, I got my Sea Dweller red and a Skydweller blue walking in the store, my second Sea Dweller the two tone I had to be on the list for a month, and now I recently been on a list for a Yatchmaster 2 and even with prior buying history is been a year they haven’t called. And now the robberies and killings are taking place, no one knew what a Rolex was unless it was a Presidential, now even a submariner will get you killed.

But Arch - you're part of the problem. You've been extolling the many virtues of luxury watches as 'off ledger assets' as long as I've been watching your videos. And as the number of high net worth individuals increases and theres a similar increase of smart, self aware women - the rich guy's are taking your advice. As 'The Pontiff' I don't think you realise just how many people take your advice seriously.
