[@OmarG123]

The passion Nico has for watches is INSANE , Great podcast

[@Neadlemeyer]

Nico is an absolute LEGEND!!!! From humble beginnings to his success…. Honest and pure.

[@darthnihilus4880]

Emotional ending. I got chills mate.

[@bashirsoltan2691]

the final few minutes really show how passionate Nico is with his career, its much more than just a business to him and seeing him being so genuine with tears in his eyes really show how honest this man is. I haven't yet got my first watch but I'm damn Shure I know where I'm heading to buy my first piece

[@t1nna885]

where is the tears in his eyes

[@triple_gem_shining]

Looks like you need to hurry up and get a rollie!

[@74aamer]

His love for g shock and Casio shows he’s a true watch lover

[@hrishikeshchavhan712]

Nico is a legend, doing what he loves and is passionate about, building a legacy. Had to fight for the position that he is in today and on top of all that he is a good man! Love Nico! 👑

[@oli1632]

This is hands down the best podcast I’ve watched all year.

[@TWS001]

Damn killing it with the guests. Andrew Tate now Nico. Keep it up!

[@BootsPlug]

Excited for this one! Keep up the great work Raheem👏👏

[@deathmetalsl]

Nico single handedly elevated Casio to "God Tier". Quite literally puts them up on the same level as Rolex. Nico deserves all the recognition and success for influencing a whole new generation of watch collectors.

[@sixwilson1117]

I rate nico so much. I never wanted this podcast to end. What a guy💯🏁 He deserves it all

[@NZGO]

This is legit the best interview video in history imo. Respect to you both for the journey's you've both been through and wish you both all the best in your future endeavours.

[@SwissWatchGang]

Nico is a gem for our watch KZbin space! 🍻

[@-HX3]

Excellent podcast - but you missed a huge opportunity to show the piece unique AP watch up close or clearly on camera. Something no one has ever seen on a wide platform This comment came early in the podcast. But blown away, real emotion from Nico and your questioning opened his own eyes to what he's achieved. Well done

[@liban2]

Bro you are absolutely killing it. Surprising me with every upload!

[@theovanderlugt8357]

I've seen/listened to Nico on a few different podcasts, but this was by far the best.

[@richardman28]

Now I know why Nico has 1m subs. I sub early on because of the entertainment value, so he has those viewers. But I am a very experienced watch collector of 30 years plus and he talks about the passion of rare pieces and not just the flex so he has my respect as a serious watch dealer. He has this audience too. I have met him at the London watch show and had a chat and he is very knowledgeable and come across as a passionate watch person. Total respect for this guy and he deserves what he has achieved. BTW. Great interview 👍

[@neilbrucker5985]

I fkn love this dude and what he is doing. He Found something that he is genuinely passionate about and loves and is also being who he actually is while doing it. Really cares about his work and is also moving forward in his personal life and it was awesome to hear him speak about it all at the end. It's not often that you see a genuine authentic person doing well and showing that he has not let it change him or go to his head.

[@RobbieCorbett]

Very cool to see someone so passionate about what they do! 👏🏻

[@mat4263]

Great job landng Nico very interesting. Your interview skills are improving but I think you missed some chances at some good follow-up lines of questions...I wish you would have followed up with how he actually got into watch repairing originally. He says he was fixing watches on the side while working in sales but you never really followed up with more on that like how did he learn how to fix watches, what got him into that originally. Secondly, when you ask him about the money and lifestyle and he says the margins are low and he isn't driving a Ferrari off of selling watches (implying it's due to his YT fame or something) you never followed up with more questions about the breakdown and how much other things like KZbin and collabs and sponsorships etc play into his business now... Cheers though for the interview, lots of interesting info about him.

[@london-living]

Can’t lie.your guests are getting bigger and bigger.great interview once again

[@abdurchowdhury5503]

[@aliz74959]

Nico is legit the man. Love your videos man. Just subscribed.

[@BF-eb4xs]

Love nico, right personality. Very entertaining

[@AW-zs5tj]

[@rapbenny]

g63 and 812 is such a good combo well done

[@vinobonito]

[@the.dove.effect]

Great interview.

[@beja7641]

Tate then Nico! Back to back bangers! Hell yes!!

[@john_singh]

Great interview, Nico is genuine

[@nassaj4890]

Handshake almost worked

[@matteoconti5348]

Fantastic podcast, Nico a legend.

[@richardman28]

Nico is absolutely right about Rolex. My first luxury watch was Rolex. My first love in watches. There is nothing wrong with the product. But Rolex is like you first girlfriend.... you love it and learn to hate it!! He says the solution is like AP going boutique only, but I have been to AP and they too only sell to their preferred clients. No chance of getting one if you a new client. Even if ypu have purchased their watches previously at the ADs.

[@tobimaxx]

Super interview.

[@Back2LobbyForU]

first time watching you CEOCAST - only clicked since i enjoy Nico and really enjoyed the podcast! Also went to school with other kids wearing rolex watches, did you by any chance go to private school, as did i?

[@Ady-gt8xh]

not messing about this year big moves

[@WNL2013]

CEO Raheem what date did you make this interview? 👌👌👌

[@solidimpact5871]

Awesome podcast that!

[@amranali2084]

Goosebumps 🥹

[@jordan-mcc]

If am ever in the position to buy a watch it will be from nico

[@Diablo22967]

12:36 What he says about Casio & Gshocks are so true... had many rich friends who had a G shock. Eminem is a huge example of this point

[@geeflex7635]

Get the likes up!

[@gfckid32]

massive interview

[@hammadkhalaily9054]

Nico is a legend

Fantastic video

[@lilekoe1]

1:02:00 I was in the comment thread. It was A Jewellers.

[@dariangower3410]

So cool! What a man!

[@richardsmith3919]

Mr hublot part 2 needed

[@stirlingpremium]

Im watching you podcasts religiousli

[@ekimandersom4478]

Great to hear his life story, but somehow i am missing a key piece. He said in his videos that he is a proper watchmaker, when and where did he learn that? He left school at 16 and never learned anything after that ,according to his story here.

[@zgpm7031]

The whole 2 hour interview was completely overshadowed by the fact he completely ignored his Handshake at the beginning.

[@shaunmalone2618]

Big time flexing with the Rory Mcilroy golf bag 😂

[@inaamellahi7594]

I can’t lie Nico is one of the only watch traders i rate everything that comes out his mouth is 100% bullshit free

[@matthewmckenney7230]

Fantastic interview and story! Thank you both!

[@marcokarrer7267]

First Tate then Nico. Subscribed!

[@raheemkhan9656]

cuuzy keep doing ur thing i see u getting very far inshallah like ppl ur locals will be saying like wha r u doing with ur life but this who u r nd wha ur good at so keep at it mara pra

[@hasanggg9009]

you should interview Patrick bet David

[@TJ-Dives]

Nico is going to be the watch king.

[@Wonderkid44]

Feel like you missed out by not grabbing those photos and the video and placing them on the vid whilst they were playing so we could see them mate.

[@johnmunro4265]

You need to come out with more content

[@shaunmalone2618]

Yeah should have done a re take on the handshake 🤣

[@BH-tf5zz]

In the watch game, nico is the don.

[@mahdirahman6595]

Them : Hey Nico, how are you? Nico : You see what I mean?

[@bishopbrar2423]

On a roll bro on a fucking roll keep it up 👍
