I swear, the cameraman knows his onions! He’s always adding or even correcting what the guys say. It’s obvious that the cameraman is a watch person first and a cameraman second.

Thanks for the kind words Sam. Have a great week

[@f1shf1ngers24]

Do you guys use loctite thread locker when changing out links? I’ve heard horror stories of bracelets coming undone and people losing their watches so I always ask for the thread locker to be used.

[@Watchtrader]

That must be incredibly rare, not something to worry about. Thanks for watching

[@alexanderzhien1736]

Hendos vintage talk is just great! Loved the video. Thanks!

Live an let die version

Great show guys. Couldn't part with my Reverso for so little, especially when it only bought about 1/3rd of a 36mm Explorer. Frank Muller not my taste but felt for the lady. She thought she had a lot more value than it turned out. Fair play to you guys for being transparent about your buying prices. The lesson I'm taking is leave watch trading to the professionals when you get into the luxury range.

[@Watchtrader]

We will always try and get the most value for the seller, but the market determines the pre-owned prices and you have to be realistic. Thanks for tuning in as always and have a great week

Selling the 5513 that was left to you by your grandad, not cool man. Especially if it’s just to trade to something else. Different if your in a jam.

[@BAF605]

👍👍

[@russellis6993]

Exactly, shocking ... not only was it his grandfathers but a 5513 meters first is a total belter of a watch, tbf it's the perfect vintage watch. Grandpa turning in his grave.

[@raaraa-1]

[@Watchtrader]

Glad to keep you entertained and thanks for tuning in

[@Crackity_Jones.]

Nearly at the 50k. Channel growing nicely over the past few months 🔥

[@Watchtrader]

We’re nearly there. Thanks for your support!

[@ianmanfren1003]

Thanks lads. I've also started wearing 34mm and 36mm watches as they fit so well under shirt cuffs. Leave the bigger stuff for the summer and t shirt weather

[@Watchtrader]

The 36mm is a classic gents size, can’t knock it. Thanks for tuning in Ian

[@Crackity_Jones.]

Agree, I have over 7 inch wrists and still like vintage 36mm as well as the bigger modern divers . Classic look and there's great deals to be had at that size

[@iannicholson2309]

I love the vintage education and information, great show lads👍

[@Watchtrader]

Pleased to hear it Ian. Have a great week 👊

[@fearthebeard.outdoors1189]

[@KevinnGomez]

5513 is the grail

[@robtudor3785]

Not many watches in the cabinets these days

[@daveycrocket1306]

Disgrace. Gilt dial 5513 is worth minimum 13 k in the trade

[@connor7162]

Which would you go for ? 1) solid gold 36mm day date with presidential bracelet and champagne diamond dial made the year I was born (1995) ? (£17k) 2) brand new 41mm date just bi colour with jubilee bracelet and champagne diamond dial ? (£13.8k) Just FYI I have big wrists and can wear 45mm dial without it looking oversized

[@HenryPerez_royal_hp]

Will you look at that, Josh finally hit puberty 😅

[@Watchtrader]

😂 Give the man a break

[@michaelfierman3256]

Entertaining as always gents! From your loyal 14k 🇺🇸viewer !

[@Watchtrader]

Much appreciated!

[@demarrobrice]

How does a 1967 rolex oyster perpetual 600ft=200m submariner 5513 worth in mint condition never polish and working got pass down all original folding bracelet maxi lollipop

[@ianmedium]

Another corker episode. I know JB champion made 14 K bracelets for the American market for Rolex and that if you look on the bracelet, you should find JB marked on there. I also know that they made bracelets for Omega for the speedmaster very collectable now. If you look at the movement, they should be stamped ROW which is the stamp for the American importer, which should be on American market Rolexes of the time. I am not sure but I think the case also may have been US made. I would imagine they were doing this in the 50´s/60´s for the same reason my 1950´s Omega has the case made by the star watch case company of Canada. Both the US and Canada at the time had punitive taxes against overseas goods to protect the home market. The way watch companies got around this was either to have the cases and bracelets made in North America thus not selling whole watches that way avoiding the sales taxes or as was the case with Longines and Nivada they had separate North American brands in the form of Wittnauer or Croton. I am so glad Hendo got the GF bracelet!
