The fact that Anthony was even wearing consignment pieces was a huge red flag. They should be either in the showroom or in the vault.

[@Crmjewelers]

Agree. The wearing of consignment pieces is just not Kosher.

[@StreetPreacherr]

@@Crmjewelers But if he wears them then that's like FREE ADVERTISING right? Right?!? Maybe he should get another tattoo on his wrist that says 'FOR SALE' with an arrow pointing at the watch he's wearing! lol But seriously, so he was holding on to $5 Million worth of consignment watches, and then claimed they were stolen? How was he even able to liquidate that much merchandise without anyone else hearing about the sales?

The Watch/Jewelry business is rich with shady untrustworthy people. Consignment isn't a Con, but plenty of risk.

[@Crmjewelers]

I can't say I disagree with you 🤷

[@survivalSC]

You do understand that consignment is the only reason people can sell there watches and get 90 percent of retail. If you want dealers to buy your watch they would have to give you 50 percent of what it’s worth. Just like any other business that buys items and resells.

[@DavidManouchehri]

@@survivalSCThere’s no reason you can’t sell your own watch directly to another individual. Consignment makes no sense for most folks, you’re just introducing more risk and adding expenses.

[@EricaChamberlain-f7i]

This is why its called CMR FOR LIFE !! Here to stay and entertain us for a long time .

[@carmenallen2997]

Consignment is an easy way out for Greys to shift the risk of having to hold inventory. However if someone screws them and steals the watch, they have to make the seller whole and is on the hook for the full value of the watch. Greys who do a lot of consignment business are shady and I will NEVER do business with them. It’s an indication that they may have cash flow issues.

[@Crmjewelers]

Consignments now are naturally higher across the board due to the state of the market. It's not necessarily a sign of shadiness, but you still need to do your homework when it comes to working with a dealer who is willing to promote and try to sell your pieces. Unfortunately, too many people mistake social clout for morality. It's a very dangerous mistake to make.

[@RB-xv4si]

I can understand consignment maybe if the business is just starting but once there is enough success, there’s no reason for consignment. The business should have sufficient cash to purchase the pieces they think they can make money on. If the business has been around for a while and doesn’t have the cash to purchase my watch, then they are not making money and are not a successful business, so why would I want to do business with them?

[@John-du2mq]

The dealers can't pay you market value, they wouldn't make money on it. Want market value? Consign it and pay the 5%

Here’s the thing I see with crm, one just the gut feeling check, these guys have knowledge experience business practices etc that take years to acquire and can only be acquired by actually doing the work. Anthony never could show that, his videos were flash no substance. Second of all with CRM what you see is that this is a family business there is a level of pride that short term money could never fuck with their pride and personal morals. The father builds the business to give it to to the son, the son would never want to shame himself for the business his father built, it’s just a business built brick by brick on honesty trust morals hard work etc. it’s great to see and I hope they get a flood of business instead of lose business because of the hole Anthony left in the market.

[@Jasperroodog]

No one ever should have to consign a watch. The seller has very limited protection. If you have to , wait with the watch whilst they take pictures etc. Never leave your watch with anyone. Would you let someone else look after £50k in cash ? A proper established grey dealer will buy it from you , if not walk away. Most on you tube want you to consign as they don’t want to commit on a falling market. They never offer consignment on a rising market

[@Crmjewelers]

It's a service, just like an auction house. Some people don't want to deal with the selling of a not-so-liquid asset. What you need to do is make sure that whoever you're doing this with is reputable. Followers and views don't necessarily mean moral.

[@survivalSC]

The people attacking consignment probably don’t have any watches to sell. Without consignment dealers would have to offer to buy for 50 percent of what it’s worth. And some watches would be even under 50 percent. So the dealers offering to do consignment are helping the customers. Example look at car business. When I would go to dealer auctions. We were buying for around 50 percent of what the car was worth. And some cars went for 25 percent.

[@Crmjewelers]

A lot of people generalize and that's why they get in trouble in the first place 🤷

When you buy anything pre-owned, it's always buyer beware. If you're trying flex and chisel you get what you get. Of course the seller has the obligation to be honest. But nobody knows the whole day to day history of a pre-owned anything. Pay the extra and buy unworn if you want assurance.

The Daytona was $5000 over list in the early 1990s when the list was $5000. There was a waiting list back then.

[@alexp3752]

Watch enthusiast for 57 years... What a different world today with people looking for supposed "status", instead of admiring a timepiece for its quality, heritage, tradition and class. The sums paid are amazing! Almost all watches I have I bought many years ago (at a far lesser price) to mark special milestones in life. Each one actually has a story behind it, and most I have never worn, as they are important keepsakes as I do not want them to be damaged. That is the curse of a true enthusiast. Lastly, I would only buy watches at the factory boutique in Geneva where I have enjoyed a long relationship. One caution tip for buyers: Never buy a watch without box and papers! Those are items that usually thieves do not have when they attempt to sell it.

[@StreetPreacherr]

Well what do you expect people to do? I mean you can't wear your CAR on your WRIST! So how do you suggest someone indicates their level of wealth at ALL TIMES other than by wearing a $2 Million wristwatch?

[@StreetPreacherr]

And I think one of the differences compared to 60 years ago is that most people CAN'T purchase a watch from the factory boutique in Geneva... Even if they have the money.

Issue with consignment is. It’s so EASY to scam. The dealer can take the watch, sell it, not tell you, take that money and buy a watch with it, flip it and make another 5k then pay the consignee….no one knows UNLESS there’s an issue. There is a LOT of this to come.

[@Crmjewelers]

It's like any relationship that requires trust, which most do. You can have a trustworthy and capable vs an untrustworthy and incapable financial advisor. Your future returns can be a lot different with one vs the other.

[@MrMighty0z]

@Crmjewelers trust can, and usually does, get broken when the cash gets big enough. To understand how broken the consignment concept is, remember this: if you give a dealer your car to sell on consignment, holding the legal title in your hands, and that dealer sells the car to an unknowing customer while not paying you . . . You just lost that car. There was a great episode of American Greed that covered this. I know a lot of watch dealers make bank out of collectors using the consignment model. But the reality is that once you send your watch off on these deals you have no power to recoup if the dealer decides to keep the cash. The current drama is just the latest, not the first or last.

[@darkshadow2393]

Great content to keep the watch enthusiast abreast of the current watch market climate. I'd just say that the same thing that happened to TPG can happen to any grey market dealer, and even to the most honest and trusted. Just as Carlos mentioned loosing hundreds of thousands on the ceramic AP's, it could be just a matter of time before the cost of the inventory you carry, becomes less than what you have invested in those timepieces. At some point, one has to make very difficult decisions and I'd be surprise if the decision starts with making family suffer over a particular client. When the tough gets tough, regardless of someone's intention, one will always look after oneself and forget what the rest will say.

[@Crmjewelers]

Thank you for your feedback, but I respectfully disagree. To start, difficult times do not justify immoral behavior. Second of all, difficult times is not what TPG/Anthony went through. What caused all this was the commingling of client fund for personal use. NOTHING justifies that and only a person without scruples would scoop to such a level.

[@darkshadow2393]

@@Crmjewelers, when it comes to business failures, it's not always malicious intent. Today you buy an expensive home, tomorrow you buy a boat, the next you buy luxury vehicles and before you know it, you owe more than you can pay back. This has been perfect recipe for the demise of many businesses. Even if you disagree, difficult times, leads you into making difficult decision, and those difficult decision will more times than not, benefit those that are closest to you. Now, would you rather have your family homeless or living below the means you have established for them or have someone else's family homeless because of the means they have established for themselves?

Unless he has a shamrock up you know where, I can't see another investor taking a gamble when it also involves unpaid consignments.

[@Crmjewelers]

Thank you John for your opinion, but I respectfully disagree. Industries are always temporarily impacted by big scams, until the dust settles and most consumers realize that it's not the industry, but the players who are at fault. It was no different with Bernie Madoff in the stock market, Sam Bankman-Fried in crypto, etc. It's not the industry. It's the players. Know your players before doing business with them.

The first three letters of consignment means to CON which means persuade (someone) to do or believe something, typically by use of a deception. I would never buy from a dealer that deals with consignment watches. After this Anthony episode people would be incredibly stupid to deal with Grey Market dealers who operate utilizing such method. You want to buy a watch this is the price take it or leave it. I want to purchase a watch I take it or leave it. That is just as simple as it gets. Well thanks for the video CRM, and this is nothing personal it's just my opinion.

@Crmjewelers As I previously stated. It's my opinion wrong or right. We are all entitled to have one. That being said, it's nothing personal to any Grey Market dealers. Ask yourself just one question: On consignment, who takes most if not all of the risk? This is nothing personal CRM. As a matter of fact, I have left many positive messages before, but this consignment deal is not one that I think would be beneficial to the owner of the watch at all. Respect that for what it is, as I respect people in general.

Consignment is not a scam unless you plan not to pay people after selling it lol

[@StreetPreacherr]

I'm just surprised that he was able to sell $5 Million worth of consignment items, and spend the money before anyone realized! Hope he enjoyed a REALLY NICE lifestyle if it couldn't be funded by the actual 'commission' he rightfully would have received from moving $5 Million worth of watches... I mean, he'd actually would have been considered to be doing a GREAT JOB if he was able to make all those sales, unless of course he unloaded everything for pennies on the dollar for 'quick cash'?

[@greaterbayareahero1401]

@@StreetPreacherr He must have sold it on the cheap these last few years. He was living off credit and there was a huge crash in Rolex. Hence he had to sell cheap to repay his loan. This is the problem when living off credit and there is a crash in prices of goods. Same applies to the property world where people buy properties on credit. His videos of paying back will take decades in this market. He will stop after a few videos.

Anthony will fake his death and simply disappear , He is a very crafty individual .

[@RICHIELUXURY]

Dan the man! Are you still holding btc long term? When do you think we will see it go back up?

[@Crmjewelers]

No crystal ball over here Richie. I hold a lot of assets. Diversification is important, but I don't depend on BTC to pay my rent. It's a long term, risk asset for me, just like gold.

[@romeosly4341]

that’s why i only buy from AD’s the wait is worth it. Paying over retail is ridiculous.

[@Crmjewelers]

Supply and demand is a b*tch, but hey.

[@gspotlight04]

That dude bought a watch without looking at the watch? 😂😂😂.. Weird lol

[@Thisthat1234]

Dealers telling customers how much they lost is hilarious lmao who told you to go and buy hype pieces at an all time high. No one cries when the customers get screwed

[@patbroe9186]

"B*tches get st*tches" just wait until they catch him. Anthony will end up having some "accident" because he owe a lot of money to the wrong kind of people. What goes around, comes around

[@andrewdamico9632]

He owes them to Jewish russian mafia. Not going to go well for him

[@Crmjewelers]

We pray that the victims in this fiasco get their money back, but it's looking grim. 🙏

[@jf6853]

Anthony is just a rat - actually, rats are not that bad

[@WranglingUAE]

What a great episode, I love the the way Carlos does deals, loaded with panache 👌🏼. Comment re TPG is spot on, just a well laid out Ponzi scheme, nothing more! Anthony knew what he was into, was bleeding cash and these things are always good whilst the markets up, takes a turn and the wheels come off. Good opportunity for the established grey market guys like you to elevate yourselves with your reputation and pedigree. Finally purchased a batch of those raffle tickets, hoping to win and get over from Dubai to pick up my Patek and meet you guys 😉. Keep up the good work

[@Crmjewelers]

Thanks for the support and for entering our competition my friend. The next week we film the experience of the first winner. Can't wait!!!

Perpetual calendar is my ultimate grail watch. Without one there is always the need to pull out your phone to see the day, date, and month. Perpetual solves that. But they’re so expensive 😢😂 love from New Jersey CRM FAM ❤️

[@raylegend808]

I like both submariner and daytona but the daytona has more Prestige

[@jackmcclary2136]

More attention needs to be focused on those that enabled Anthony to continue his grifting of others long after sensible minds were pointing out all the red flags. Many in the grey market want the public to believe that Anthony was a criminal aberration operating on his own because that would reflect better on the industry however not only is that a false narrative it also sets up buyers for future scammers.

[@Crmjewelers]

Anyone who knew what was going on and was involved definitely deserves to face the consequences.

[@Thomgxx100]

Why are they all talking like Al Pacino in "Scarface"?

[@Crmjewelers]

Because Cubans are like that.

[@tonykanaan3839]

Carlos is the best. I will not buy or sell to anyone else in Miami than him.
