Mark is the man! Love the 3 pieces especially the Klings!

[@ProCelestialEmpire]

These two Singaporean (in case someone doesn't like me to call them Chinese) represent the high standard of East Asian being flamboyant, stylish and pretentious in the lovely way.

Watching this the 3rd time now, never gets old, a real fun conservation 👍🏻 The Crash Looks great with the sleeve, Wei, would be great to see your complete Cartier collection one day … 🙏🏻

[@RevolutionWatch]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@robertschmidt9584]

Great conversation between two great gentlemen and appreciation for wonderful brands. Thanks!

The back of the KLINGS is really gorgeous and clean; not often did we see the balance wheel, the escape wheel and the barrel so simply laid out in that lucid way.

[@Number_006]

Thanks for the interview, great stories and conversation.

[@greaterbayareahero1401]

Glad the sound is a lot better in this one. Both very entertaining chaps. I like the edginess of Wei Koh mixed with the public boyish image of Mark.

[@manuelmagana1975]

Seeing Mark smoke reminds me of the good/cute kids who used to smoke to hang out with the tough guys at school haha Incredible video, I admire you both!

[@gqwarren]

Awesome video Wei, and Mark is a great guest. Thanks for posting! 👍

[@konstantin9615]

Very nice conversation! And an amazing set of watches. Thank you!

[@jheng8648]

Which jurisdiction are involved? I assume the bona fide purchaser for value (of the stolen watch) rule does not apply in your case? Is there a universal stolen watch registry that people need to check against?

[@morgan97475]

Enjoyed the discussion. Those watches are fantastic!

[@MlkXiu]

Hm.. When I saw the Klings, I immediately thought of the Breguet 5907, until he flipped to the back ofc. But lovely watch, definitely gives off that vintage era and I feel most independent watch makers are fairly influenced by Breguet's style

[@DmitriyOleynik]

Great conversation!

[@conradbo1]

Great interview, great and interesting collection

[@connorwang3442]

Great interview.

[@SoCalWatchReviews]

Amazing collection and conversation!

[@richarddavis7548]

Great conversation! Thanks for posting this!

[@townievision]

very entertaining episode !

[@theJade]

That crash looks amazing...

[@justintran3586]

2:00 the left of the watch looks like a classic vintage mass produced weighing scale

[@danielharyanto6713]

That Cartier crash with sleeve tattoo looks very rock by the way

[@007-i6z8v]

More of this please....!

[@bryans3723]

Wow that journe is exquisite

[@Didish6]

Amazing episode!!!

[@NikonFM2n]

EXCELLENT

[@bastienpotentier]

Funny everyone goes crazy about the Klings... the Naoya Hida is my favorite by far (as long as Wei's Cartier remains out of competition 😅)

[@anonymousonlineuser6543]

These guys are great.

[@desertoctane6444]

That F.P. Journe is my grail. One day it'll happen!

[@jamesrobert4106]

It is a stunning piece. That and an A Lange & Söhne Zeitwerk would be on my list of dream watches.

[@Kayn123]

Dumb question maybe, but who in the future would be trusted with servicing the C. Klings?

[@base924]

Many or most Independent watchmakers can service this. No worries about complications or preserving finish.

[@Kayn123]

@@base924 makes sense!

[@sbsb4995]

That f.p.journe is an amazing beauty

[@petemorbius3936]

nice

[@deiyaa5621]

[@mikextase]

A good example showing that money does not buy class (nor respect). Drop the cigars, it really doesn't suit any of you guys.

[@humbertogarcia1767]

What's wrong with the cigars?
