[@lonarin]

Absolutely right! This is the first video that I'Ve watched form this guy (you know - youtube and it's algorithms) and what really made me stay is that he introduced his camera man. In times like these where nearly every and anybody has a camera following them, it's nice to see that some good old tradition and just plain humaneness is still being practiced. Kudos to the rich dude! @Obaid Harres Maybe if you'll cosider that he pays his camera man for following around and basically gives him a comforable way to live or earn money, you complain why he does not buy him a house? :D That's absolutely ridiculous. Just because he's wealthy and a nice dude, doesnt mean he can throw around money and buy everybody a house or whats so ever :D Imagine you being employed and complaining that your company doenst provide you with more than salary. Mental

[@obaidhrs]

A few observations: The receptionist didn't know who you were eventhough you were there by appointment. You were there to see the owner, and you had to have a somewhat awkward interaction with the sales staff. You initiated the introduction with them. You had to ask to see the owner once inside. Even after telling staff you don't drink alchohol, they bring you a large glass of champagne anyway. The owner name dropped famous clients. Owner tells you three or four different times what he's all about, yet it was very obviously all about greasing you for a sale... Thanks, but that didn't help his business

[@Keeplanders]

@Herbert Hannibal I think that the champagne thing does look rather bad for them. There are three people there - you get three glasses, very easy. But honestly, I might not have gone for a handshake on a person who is currently filming either because I would assume that they might not want to do that and it might ruin their shot. Either way, those people might be socially inept or they might also be incredibly nervous and when you are nervous it's very easy to overlook things and make mistakes on the go. I feel that if they have reached that level, it means that they are doing some things right.

I don't want to give you the wrong idea because I have many rich friends that don't treat people like this, They give drinks to everyone including the help. It's a sign of class and value towards people. The mind set of a person with class is that everyone is important. Without Adam, Who would hold the camera? He has a purpose and he's doing a great job so he deserves to be respected.

CJToxic Basic economics. Supply and demand. The watchmakers can only make so many, but the demand for certain time pieces are beyond what they can make. Therefore people are willing to pay more.

[@chasewinssportspicks6790]

@@soultaker840 if you were given a discount from any AD, on any brand that AD has & Is an authorized dealer for (as long as it’s actually a luxury watch brand) then you didn’t get fucked. Not even a little bit. No AD is required to give a discount, with most brands it’s highly frowned upon, & in some cases a flat out “no no” to give discounts on the MSRP. Just because they are selling second hand (grey market) for less than retail is completely irrelevant. That’s not the fault of the AD, nor the fault of the manufacturer. Just because something doesn’t go up in value, or retain its full value on the secondary market doesn’t mean you’re required to get discounts on buying one brand spanking new from any AD. That logic makes less sense than anything I have ever heard in my life. Since it’s apparent that you may be new to the watch world, here’s a bit of information for you. Not long ago, as in within the last decade. 99.9% of watches wouldn’t hold their full value on the grey market unless they were limited/rare pieces or were considered vintage. Even brands like Rolex. Hell, a decade ago you couldn’t give away A Patek Nautilus, any Richard Mille, or most APs. They were for certain clients who liked them, & true collectors. Hell there was a time when Rolex ADs would GIVE their customer a Daytona if they would purchase a Day Date. It’s all marketing & Social media that has ruined the watch hobby, making stainless steel Rolex models sell for 2-3x the retail price....USED. It’s absolutely absurd. Go back to your shoe days, how many shoes would go up in value on the secondary market? Almost none of them when you consider the grand scale of shoes. Sure, rare or limited release Jordan’s, limited production collaborations from Nike, Jordan, ect. Other than specific things in that market, shoes lost value the second you walked out of the store. Which is the case with 99.9% of any goods you will purchase, even luxury goods. Today’s watch market is a rare exception that will one day go away as everything always does. It’s the circular world we live in. So if you received a discount on a luxury watch, you’re considered lucky, not someone who got screwed. If you walked in knowing the watch held no value on the grey market & you still purchased the timepiece, either you’re the dummy, or it didn’t matter to you. (as it shouldn’t, watches aren’t meant to be an investment. They are meant to be worn & enjoyed) It’s not the AD who is at any fault.
