[@ryanjofre]

@@alexghazarian1144 I bought two new Tissot’s this past three months. A day/date III black dial and a Couturier black dial with bracelet. The tolerances are so tight on the couturier that I was mad when I first opened the package as I thought it had an integrated bracket which I can’t stand. Lol. The tolerances and overall quality are to good to be true for the price. They’re worth every penny of retail. I own watches that msny enthusiasts can only dream about and these Tissot are very worthy indeed. I will surely be buying more. Just use a soft cloth and RO water to clean the crystal and polish the case and bracelet when you go out. It’s amazing how much a bit of work and pure water makes a watch look. Tissot FTW. 100%

Rolex is most definitely not entry level...I mean the guys don't even know how to properly set up the watch? Fair that not everyone is well versed into watches as much as us enthusiast but if you own the watch, know how to properly use it or how it works at least. Casio and Timex are entry level, maybe a Seiko or a Hamilton for a solid entry mechanical watch. Rolex and Omega are not first time watches, and this shows exactly why. I'd argue a Datejust is more entry level as you don't have to deal with the GMT function. Even a Tudor BB36 would be an excellent watch to start a collection and learn and get into how the watches work.

The difference between owning an item and taking care of it. Owning an item means it most likely won't exist in the same working condition by the time you're gone. Taking care of say a watch or a car means you understand you don't own it because it's not gonna be yours forever. You get the privilege of handing it down to the next person to take care of til they to pass it on. Owning something just means you don't care about its value. That or it has no real value.

Sorry, but there is no quickset date on any GMT Master II … Nico is wrong. The GMT Master II requires putting the crown in the fully out position to turn the hour marker “Round and Round” to set the date.

My point was more about if most people bother setting the Rolex every time they put it away and then get it out to wear it. Hope you enjoyed the ep! - Curtis

@@Strikeitbig if you’re worried about it stopping and wrong when you put it back on get a watch winder. Also it has 72 hours of power reserve, wear it everyday or every 2 days and it will keep somewhat good time. Watch a tutorial video.

What time did the kid say "GMT is entry level"? I'm looking at the comments.

[@aI1baba]

PLEASE fix up the audio, I'm not sure if the mic is too far away but sometimes I can hear perfectly clearly and sometimes it's really hard to hear

"About much would (an RM67) set him back?" "About 160k." "Oh, I think that you could do that." "What the f--k are we doing? We're talking like 160k is nothing." hahahahaha

[@201950201950]

Do I wish that I was so rich that I considered a $20k an entry level time piece?

[@GreenSkyy87]

I have a hard time taking a podcast seriously that uses beats headphones. Big fan of Nico, but I have no idea who the kid that says a GMT is entry level with his POS white headphones.

[@Strikeitbig]

Why does the brand of headphones matter to you, they are simply just a tool for listening to sound 😂 MT

Always remember… “The man makes the watch, the watch doesn’t make the man” being humble and brave is the key to success.

[@trethatdude]

They don’t know about watches they can just afford them. That’s what makes expensive watches stupid. They only buy them for the cost.

12:30 being born and raised in Leiden (Holland), I know the ¨Van der Horst¨ (Nico´s last name) business very well because it is a small city. His grandfather (Nico 1) was a a renowned photographer in the city and ended up founding 3 successful photography specialty stores in the city. His father ( Nico 2) might have been a hippie (I have no clue) but he did successfully manage the store that his father (Nico 1) left/sold him in 1986 until retiring in 2018 at 66 years of age. The digital era had rendered physical stores like these obsolete so fair play. I doubt a hippie could manage a business for 32 years, but that is between Nico 2 and Nico 3 :) No idea what happened to the other 2 stores to be honest but 2018 was the end of 77 years of ¨Nico Van Der Horst¨ (number 1) photography specialty stores. And oh!.......Sorry Nico, you bloody legend....but I was actually at the Store Closing reception and briefly talked to you. Keep going with the YT boxing thing because to be fair....you were just as ¨curvy¨ in 2018 as you are today 🤣

[@TheSpritz0]

I had an Uncle who "posed" as a Hippie to manage a club back in the 1960's/70's and he wasn't one, just had long hair and dressed the part to not seem like "the establishment"!!

[@doggies.will.be.doggies]

@@TheSpritz0 The fun part actually is that if you look up photos from Nico 2 (¨the Hippie¨), he looks like a regular down to earth typical Dutch business man; he never made any fuss, was always well dressed and attended to his customers (including me!) like a pro....I guess that little sting from Nico 3 has some personal/family issues behind it which we do not need to know a about :)

[@eastcoastvisualmedia]

Really enjoyed the podcast fellas - such a great conversation from so many perspectives.

[@ChuckBeefOG]

The average yearly wage in America could barely cover a GMT and this guy says entry level. That guy gives his gf hall passes for sure.

38:10 I know how he feels, I'm determined not to buy a Rolex, but to go with Omega or Oris instead. Same reason Jay Leno doesn't own a Ferrari, not even a used one, but he still has an appreciation for them.
