[@juzi68]

CEO suffers from "main character" syndrome. There are only 3 names that need to be highlighted when talking about this brand. Antoni Patek, Franciszek Czapek and Adrien Philippe.

[@TheNotoriousKID]

Stern “designed” the Cubitis himself. He’s never had a design class in his life, and literally has no experience in the field. Look how lazy the design is, he literally just squared up the Nautilus.. missed a complete opportunity to give the consumers a new bracelet and dial..

[@wojciechm.5737]

This guy thinks that he has talent and the skills, just because he inherited this company from his father. Absolutely ridicolous.

[@off-roadingcars]

Eric says what needs to be said. Thank you. Everyone else is too scared to speak the truth and say out loud what many think.

[@thedownshiftchannel]

This is the same terrible attitude the leaders of BMW had when their new design language was heavily criticised. Most of the original customer base went elsewhere and the brand became something else

[@christianfloehr]

Yes! I am a BMW fan and owner for years. Thought to buy a PP but now keep my „old“ car e 46 M3 and buy an AP… 😂 Times change 😅

[@estatesla]

BMW lost their way many years ago when the 3, 5, and 7 looked the same. Let's not forget some of their lower prices cars don't even drive like a BMW. The only BMW cars worth buying are the M series. Everything else seems to be crap.

[@christianfloehr]

@ The new M5 is far too heavy, not elegant and I would prefer the F90 in a heartbeat… but enjoying my e46 M3 every day.. 🙃

[@julioerodriguez6097]

I concur 100% with you Eric. The arrogance of that CEO is off the charts. And he is oblivious of the reality anyway. If somebody wants a Patek bad enough can go to Chrono 24 and get one. Now I rather get me a Cartier Santos Dumont than that ugly Cuibitus. BTW, I cannot unseen his face now as "Peter" from the family guy, LOL!! 🤣 Great video!

I'm never going to unsee this now. The Peter griffin look is so uncanny, and he has that smugness too. 2024 has definitely been the year of the nepo babies eh? "If you have nothing good to say, keep your mouth shut", something he never learned.

[@Pilipinazz]

He wanted to improve an iconic Gerald Genta design and miserably failed at it then he goes off to tell “you cant afford our timepieces anyway if you don’t like my new design”

[@forsterdaniel]

you just nailed it ! Now the "crapitus" nickname is in my head and will not leave every time i see the picture of this hideous monster

[@Nefville]

Thierry Stern didn't get to be the president of Patek Phillipe because of his qualifications or merit or because he earned it, he was just born into the right family. He's a nepo baby. And he acts like it: classless, arrogant, totally lacking in self-awareness and beyond entitled. Any brand, even Patek Phillipe, can have a flop but I lost all respect because of HIM, not the Cubitus.

[@WatchEric]

correct

[@fachzentrumkfo]

Even though many will disagree this is why Rolex will always remain the benchmark in the watch company: their management does not lack professionalism. They’d never make such a mistake like Stern did. I think Patek will steer away potential buyers and quite frankly they don’t have many visually appealing watches. Yes they might be top notch but it’s all quite paired to a dated and old fartish design language. There are better options now ,…

[@CamiloHolz]

Me too... Fuck Peter from family guy destroied the admiration ive had of Patek Philippe

[@Cityadventurers]

A lot of people are saying the exact same thing

[@oysterman962]

T​here's an old saying , if you don't have something nice to say then don't say anything at all. Thierry Stern should have just kept quiet and let his choice of design speak for itself, rather than defend his position arrogantly. Rolex don't do interviews and actually have a policy that their employees are not allowed to speak to the press. That's why Rolex advertise Watches for Professionals. And Patek is a watch you never own, or would ever want to.

[@scottlucidi6476]

Best episode in a long time! I liked when Frank honked at Eric and he looked back and was like "What's up, Frank!"

[@andrewm9669]

Agreed. I thought I was a Rolex guy, with Patek dreams. Now, I'm happy to be Rolex guy. That guy is a tosser, and association to him is toxic.

[@gillesalphonsine7288]

Couldn’t say it better. Thanks Family Dad for releasing me 😅. I don’t want to be associated to those kind of human being 😂😂

[@estatesla]

What Stern needs is deez nuts. I value Rolex a lot better.

[@toxion_8]

It is absurd to say that there was no inspiration behind the Cubitus. The Cubitus is the most brilliant homage of the Casio AE-1200WHD-1AVDF ever made.

[@Macs_out]

Unfortunately there is, and always has been idiots in charge that have gained their position through blood and not talent! Spot on for calling it out Eric😂

(Swiss living in Geneva) I saw Journe how he behaves with unknown people. Sorry, but Stern has not even the first place. Thank you for highlighting TS's design process and his view on designers which are both terrible and damaging for the future of the brand (and explains a lot about the releases of these last years). Am I an old f* to say that I prefer the father's tastes? BTW, Apple was Apple thanks to Jobs *and*Jony Ive who is.... a designer.

[@1pashar]

Eric, as a long time collector with several PP timepieces in my collection, my reaction to Cubitus and his interview was nearly identical to yours. Thrierry’s arrogance, sadly but fortunately, is evident in his response. I have had one word for this new release which now also applies to the CEO… Cubitus = Stupidus. Cheers brother!

[@epoernomo]

You are spot on eric. Couldnt agree more. The lastest square shape patek looks terrible. The best shape to me, so far is PP 5040

[@Ballsyone]

The Nautilus is the most boring sports watch EVER! Their other models are beautiful but is that the best bezel they could come up with? Now they made it square too? Aaahh, I gotcha card. BTW, thank you for telling it like it is Eric. Still my favorite watch channel.

[@scurfawatches]

I agree I got one for my 40th and was seriously underwhelmed, it went back three times in the two year warranty period making it the worst retail watch purchase I have ever made and believe me I have made a lot.

[@patsmith3894]

The secret of the Nautilus is that it looks like a piece of sh!t. Scarcity made it what it is. The death knell of Patek might be their new factory. When they begin pumping watches out in volume, people might notice they are poorly made, mechanically unreliable, and, in many cases, ugly.

[@samuelburton5576]

Remember there is a reason Hermes is doing extremely well even when others are faltering. It's called exclusivity and value retention. Any true luxury maker who discounts and appeals to the mass is affected by the mass when the economy declines. Your philosophy is why Gucci, Burberry. and others are suffering. People but..... about Hermes and their practice but it's why they stand out.

[@nielslarsen1693]

Eric you are missing the point. The Cubitus is a reference to the medical condition "Cubitus Varus" which means a deformity to the forearm. Obviously Thierry Stern is very concerned about this deformity and making a watch referencing the deformity while also being and ACTUAL deformity of the forearm is next level genius. If it was good looking it wouldn't make sense

[@sebastianbucur5135]

Cubitus is the Latin name of a bone in the arm

[@nielslarsen1693]

[@ConsentinoBiagi]

got my 39mm with the white dial on the 3-link "Bader" bracelet watch on MAMACOO 3 weeks ago and am loving it to pieces. Absolute fantastic watch that wears super comfortable on my 6.75 inch wrist. Chose the 3-link over the 5-link bracelet for the toolless quick adjustment. Way more comfortable than my Longines Hydroconquest 41 mm.

[@edoardocentis515]

I agree 100 %. He is not fit to run the Company. Furthermore, in my opinion, Patek can no longer take it for granted that potential clients are willing to wait forever and spend an arm and a leg for an overpriced watch. They have to innovate, reduce prices and increase production.
