Thanks a bunch for having me guys ❤

[@WattsOnWatches]

The pleasure was ours! Thanks for having us! 🤝🏻❤️

[@SoCalWatchReviews]

You’re amazing my man 👏

[@MrBeard-et1yi]

We need more content Jasper on your channel. My favorite episode is when you visited Chopard. Super cool guy and would love to buy something from you in the future.

[@jasperkov]

@@MrBeard-et1yi far too kind. New stuff will come next year 🫶

[@Soulheads-yy3zq]

I’m new here. Such a treat to listen to true lovers of horology.

[@thetruthwillsetyoufree8199]

Jasper really needs to start putting up more content on his KOV channel, it’s by far the best watch KZbin channel out there but he neglects it. Come on Jasper we NEED more KOV!!

[@swaffelkonijn1752]

He has basically outgrown youtube tbf his clientele probably isnt to keen on social media especially at his pricepoint.

[@jasperkov]

Will do some next year. Pizza promise 🫶💯

This guy is like a less rude and more modest version of Nico Leonard who kept in shape.

[@ForeverBrooklynNYC]

AND is FAR MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE than Nico

[@BumblebumBear]

Love Jasper…a true vintage Rolex expert who says it as it is.

[@henkvandebeek7921]

If you pay careful attention you may just notice that Jasper is quite knowledgeable! Epic to hear him discussing these models and their history with so much passion

[@17.06.Copper]

Jasper is hilarious and honestly says it like it is!

[@ekimandersom4478]

We don’t dislike Rolex watches. But we all dislike their sales strategy.

[@charlyvanbuuren2947]

Fantastisch om Jasper te horen praten over zijn passie!! 👍

[@Nachovalenti899]

Rolex in watches is like Real Madrid in football. Many people criticize them, hate them but both are always at the top. Great video and beautiful watches.

[@jameslloydcole8783]

Great video chaps, James - WWC.

[@thewholecut]

Loved this episode but it made me sad because old Rolex is so much cooler than modern Rolex 😢

[@WattsOnWatches]

Agreed

[@TheGrenadier97]

16:57 - I never saw a better summary to Rolex's History than that comment.

[@Popescu789]

Great great video! First time I see you chaps, will totally follow and watch for more. Very interesting content. And by the way that brick bracelet is amazing and the baghette dial even more!!!

[@Gotyew410]

Just This box is an absolute dream thanks for that info and I’ve heard a seen photo but not in this day and age awesome content!

[@jamieopulence]

Top chat and very enjoyable listen 🌎

[@llamamanism]

16:59 So that’s where I’m going wrong at the. AD

[@hourkid]

Vintage Rolex is just so cool. Got to get one back in my collection. I had a 1999 Datejust 16200 I so regret selling that watch. I will get one back but fancy an air king date. You two boys sound like Yorkshire lads. Where are you based

[@WattsOnWatches]

We are indeed. We’re online only atm with plans to open a boutique in York next year. However we’re happy to meet anyone in the Yorkshire area. We mainly operate out of York, Harrogate and Leeds for in person meetings but happy to travel in the Yorkshire area!

[@WatchClyde]

You can’t dislike Vintage if you say you love watches.

[@GuideauxPelagos]

That is a truer statement than the Rolex statement.

[@1bobola]

Probably the most interesting KZbin video I’ve ever seen! 👍

[@WattsOnWatches]

Wow, thanks!

[@WestCoastAce27]

Some absolute stunners. Can’t even imagine putting some of those on for a day. Starting with the Daytona he’s wearing. 🙌

[@roycedot]

Whoa - those were some crazy pieces I didn't know existed. Very cool

[@mikedemarchelier9090]

Some beautiful watches there! That brick bracelet on the Daytona: stunning! The pavé dial with the baguettes bezel and all the bling? Meh … not so much! But that’s the beauty of Rolex, there’s something for everyone! You guys should have Kevin O on your channel next! Actually, have BOTH Jasper and Mr. Wonderful on at the same time! LOL

[@MT-kx2uc]

What was the reference to Italians and Paul Newman Daytonas?

[@eduardwalhout1740]

didnt get that either

[@mtnvalley9298]

19:25 I like this guy. He knows his business and can laugh at himself.

[@taibmohamed4068]

Thanks you for the is video and beautiful watches collection Rolex ❤

[@emiliodisanto3507]

I do have a collection of 1960s watchs; but are non brand watchs like Baron, Helbros, Gruen, Arhon,; but they are all in mint condition; look similar to some Rolex but quite affordable around 100 to 300 dollars each but are stunning!!!!! Eat your heart out Jasper. Emilio

[@robertschmidt9584]

Great video.

[@WattsOnWatches]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@edwinthompson159]

very informative and entertaining!

[@mikemurphy8996]

I wish he had a Rolex Thunderbird. One of my favourite watches of all time

[@vitorlago6551]

Case you are into wines and starting a watch journey or vice versa: rolex lovers are supertuscans lovers. Great video and thanks for the insight lol Makes total sense!

[@lukeblankenship8424]

People only say they don’t like Rolex when they can’t have the one they want. It’s silly.

[@thepa1]

Great vid thanks gents.

[@Ernesto-z6f]

Anything from the 70s was amazing

[@defenstrator4660]

[@ListenToPowerViolence]

Rolex is one of the most popular watch brands in Switzerland.

[@GuideauxPelagos]

And that for a 20th century brand started in England by a salesman.

[@NikonFM2n]

I love Rolex. If it hadn't been for Rolex I'd never have my 42mm HULK Homage by Steinhart ❤

[@tanman7627]

cool watches

[@jayv9619]

Shout out to Gruen for being the only other major and last brand to be produced by Aegler before Rolex completely bought them out

[@leonardj.8557]

Jasper de goat

[@sinjinadams2862]

"You can't dislike Rolex if you like watches"- Yes but you can dislike the people that run Rolex who treat their customers like shit!

[@jasperkov]

This I cant disagree with 😂

[@clambake3771]

They treat their customers very well. It’s the annoying visitors to their stores that aren’t technically “customers” that they don’t treat so nicely.

[@avmelidor]

Eye opening

[@SuperMAYUSAMA]

yes we can

[@K0MBIAN]

Yes, you can.

[@mikemurphy8996]

Jaspers watch box is probably worth more then most peoples daily watch. Looks more like a watch brief case

[@djdc81]

I wish I could wear my Rolex in London.

[@ianskelly6911]

you can , but in half an hour someone else may be wearing your rolex...

[@kennethg9277]

Oh stop being a drama queen. Wear a long sleeved shirt and you can have whatever watch you want underneath it... unless you get wasted and start flashing your cash around like a moron of course. People who get mugged for watches tend to deserve it. Unpopular fact.

[@daintiestquarters3411]

Who says so? I love watches and I dislike Rolex, as much as I dislike your cigars.

[@mikemurphy8996]

Jasper is a Nerd with Cool stuff

[@cardinalj]

There're hardly a dozen well-documented chocolate dial wrist watches with all 100% proof by time period 1960s over 1970s to today's photographs of the same wrist watch !

[@ninophelps]

Did this clown just say, "I never set watches on time." (3:01) Sorry Jasper, but where's the respect for these incredible pieces as fundamentally tools as well as art pieces?!?! He calls those who don't like Rolex "asinine", and doesn't care about watches as time keepers?

[@JohnLFjellstad]

Because he doesn't see watches as time keepers, but investment pieces like a Monet or Van Gogh painting. Doesn't matter what the time is, as long as people is admiring that he owns one.

[@kennethg9277]

@@JohnLFjellstad If he sees watches as investments, he's an idiot. If he cares whether people are admiring him or his possessions, he's an even bigger idiot. You sound like one too.

Well I do agree with Jasper. You can't deny Rolex's impact on the history of watch making. But I still believe that Seiko is the better brand at the end of the day.😬

"You Can't Dislike Rolex If You Like Watches" kind of feels like "You can't dislike vanilla ice cream if you like desserts." Its way to simplistic, but good clickbait I guess.

[@ap6160]

I love watches - Omega, Longines, Zenith. Ive been collecting for over 10 years. AND.... I hate Rolex.

Of course you can. Lots of people that like watches don't like Rolex. That's a fact.

[@ChromeMan04]

I don’t dislike Rolex I just hate the snob fanboys that overrate them like they are the holy grail of watches. Rolex didn’t invent or revolutionize anything yet they are raved as the kings of horology. And no, a presidential or jubilee bracelet is NOT and invention, it’s an innovation.

[@reesebroekhoven3962]

Now without say because its rolex explain in detail what about the watch make them so great and so want. And talk about that actually product its self not people's people's feelings or bs like that

[@1114gabby]

I don't like the Rolex marketing and sales practices. The watches are fine.

[@CaptCanuck4444]

Watch me.

[@GuideauxPelagos]

It is a cognitive error thinking one cannot dislike Rolex because when one doesn't one does not know anything about watches. One could say the same about Omega...even as this does not go well with many Rolex fans. Similar reasoning we find with brands like Apple, Martin and Mercedes. This argument is getting old. I do appreciate the brand and respect it because it 100% definitely deserves respect...however respect is something else than the subjective liking of something. Rolex in general does not do much for me... I simply do not like them all that much. It is called personal taste. Yes of course there will be several Rolexes I like (all black Daytona is really nice or that gorgeous pre-Daytona at 22:15!)...but in general they do nothing for me. Why? For example because for the amount one has to put down for a Rolex, the alternatives are mind blowing. Also the argument that no watch brand would be where they are now can be reversed to Rolex. Without Omega, Longines or Vacheron...Rolex would not be where they are today either...it is what it is. I do always love Jasper's knowledge as it is eloquent and very informative, spot on and entertaining. There is just one blindspot...the blind love for Rolex. To repeat the same statement about not being able to dislike Rolex is not going to make it a truth. Great video nevertheless, I love hearing his passion for watches...whether he talks Rolex or not.

[@Andrew-w6m4y]

I don't dislike the watch , I dislike the fashion brand that it's becoming and the pretentious people who own them.... it's not the watches fault it's the people 😂

[@reesebroekhoven3962]

You cant dislike rolex if you like watches really???? Sure ya can you're actually an intelligent watch person if you're not into rolex and their none innovative bs lines of watches. You're not a person thats easily douped into buying a over hyped name who makes a meeeh low-mid luxury watch.

[@davidtomasetti8520]

You can’t like Rolex without being a follower.

[@NinjaNovice]

So, by that logic you are a Casio follower? Timex? Oh, right.....Invicta follower. No hate here from me mate. Cheers!

[@davidtomasetti8520]

@@NinjaNovice I am a fan of quality mechanical watches not hype.The popularity of rolex (the brand) is not based on the quality of rolex watches (although they are quality watches) but rather the hype and the perception of them as a status symbol. most people who buy and own rolex watches are doing so primarily for the status not the quality while I appreciate the quality of rolex I I am not at all a fan of the brand or the hype.

[@davidtomasetti8520]

@@NinjaNovice but the real reason I responded that way is because I think blanket statements such as like the one in the title are silly and people who make them tend to be caught up in their own little world.

[@skizoboy69]

I can and I do. Everything Rolex brags about is BS, except maybe for the date complication, and most of their watches are gaudy.

[@AnuarHassan-m1i]

Sallute !!!

[@bartobruintjes7056]

Instead of one million watches, Rolex are going to produce more than two million watches per year by building a new factory. All Rolex watches are all made by hand🤣. All the marketing of Rolex is a big scam, and people believe in it.🤣

[@xada2397]

"You Can't Dislike Rolex If You Like Watches" Paying tens of thousands of dollars on watches that cost a small fraction of that to produce by machines is a joke.

I have a real SUB but I also bought one of these replicas from MAMACOO for piece of mind if I go to another country or if I am doing activities that can damage the watch. I don't see anything wrong with that.

[@ercanbanka5377]

Of course you can , Rolex is overrated , no one should pay 6000 -30`000 Dollars Plus for a watch and then wait for 10 to 20 Years . These Brands are so spoiled by Idiotic Customers from all over the World , this is why they are behaving like this , i mean they produced "cheap" Rolex watches as a mass Product for the Military a 100 years ago , and look what it is now , Rich mens status symbol , what is so special on a Rolex tell me except the Name , some People think it's an Investment like you buy a House , do you know how many rolex are on the secondary market for sale ? the asking prices are absolutely ridiculous . Even the half "Broken" run down vintage watches from Rolex have a high price , for what ? Because people see a not existing value in them , it's a fuckin hype . Rolex , Patek Philippe , Vacheron etc. you can throw them away as a Brand , i wouldn't care . We are Normal Ordinary People not Millionaires , are you People even interested in watches ? makes me think .....
