Very good advice, and I learnt new things even though I’ve bought hundreds of vintage watches. Thanks

Thank you for another excellent video :)

Good vid and tutorial Christian! 👍 🤔🤔🤔 Top five movements.

Great POV...thanks man!

Great advise and another great video!

I've bought a few vintage watches now. Asking for a lume shot if relevant can help tell if a watch is original, relumed, and/or repainted. Good to see the SuperOcean on the wrist. Of your collection, which watch gets the least wrist time? Or second least if its your Swatch

Finally a video about vintage watches again! I though you forgot that vintage is better

Like any good experience, relationship matters and history! It also starts with trust, the character of a person and their passion! Weather you are purchasing a watch or solidifying a services deal that has to be a part of the consideration always!

And here speaks the One that ripped me off on a not working Omega..then Ignored all my emails on that issue. Now I have to extra pay over 2 grand to have it fixed at Omega, for the fix can not be done by any regular average watchmaker.. What a hypocrisy!

Hello! Could you shoot us an email at info@theoandharris.com With your order number?? If your watch is under warranty, we’d be happy to fix for free! And either way, If a Watchmkaer is charging that sort of money for a service, you’re being ripped off and I’d hate that to happen to you!

The watch is now long post warranty, Mr.Chris. I have contacted you several times when I have noticed the watch malfunctioning afew months after purchasing it from you, but no answer from your side, until I contacted you as a potential buyer for another watch, then immediately you answered putting the blame on your staff, and that you never ignore a client, which was exactly what you did shortly afterwards. And now more than a year has passed since our last contact. The watch was sent to two different watch makers both advised me to send it to Omega which has no representatives in the country I live, I had to fly it to another country with Omega boutiques, so they sent it to Omega Geneva, where it was diagnosed and estimated for over 2 grands. Now I have no choice but accepting that estimation, if I want the watch working as it should, or to turn it down and request my not working watch back until I save for that costly yet proper repair. What do you think about that Mr.Chris?

Due to all that what happened. I have lost trust not only in your company, the thing that should matter for you, but generally in vintage watches. And I am not recommending buying any vintage crap, especially from T&H. Prior to that I have purchased a couple of vintage watches from Ebay, and they are perfectly working watches for better prices. Btw, I am not a flipper nor a watch dealer, so any loss in my purchases is taken on my own wallet, not on any third party.

@@TheoandHarris I have emailed you the order number as you requested.

Great explanation! As I’ve mentioned previously, I’m still in the market for a Rolex Explorer, Ref. 114270. The reason? About two years ago, I bought one from a local respected jeweler who sells pre-owned and vintage watches. However, I did exactly what you just stated I shouldn’t have done...........I returned it one day after buying it because it did not have box & papers. I just couldn’t let go of the notion that the watch possibly wasn’t worth what I paid, based on the lack of B&P. Your reasons seem more than reasonable and I’ll take that into account when I eventually locate another 114270.

This is a nice video with a good topic to talk about. I have been working in a few premium shops over the year. Some with exclusive hifi, some with designer furniture and a bike shop with some of the best bikes in the world. And i have learned that no matter what the products are you sort have to look for the same things all the time. It is almost always the person standing in fromt of you with the product you have to trust most of all.

Christian great job on the tips. I appreciate that so very much. You are very smart when it comes to your watches such as Rolex Watches and petite Philip and the rest of them. My favorite out of all the watches that you speak of are the Rolex Watches they are the most impressive watches that I have ever seen in my life really. When I do have the funds I will personally purchase a Rolex Watch myself it will be a presidential Rolex Watch with diamonds. Meaning with Rolex diamonds that is what I meant to say.

Even with a new watch from an AD, had an Authorised Repairer not repair an obvious fault and now had to send it to the Swiss. Not sure what I can do as now out of pocket 2 shipping, and as yet don't have a fixed watch.

Well done.

I swear seeing the out-takes of t&h vids is sometimes almost as good as seeing the actual videos😂

Funny that you Talk about warranty and RETURNS. As a Dealer who keeps 10% and only refunds 90% to a Customer for returns its pretty pathetic to Talk about that.

Hey man, Theo and Harris still have a 3 day return policy? Seems way to strict man.

I want to buy a vintage rolex which i find very nice and at the great price, from a Reputable seller too. But the problem is that I have no idea where to send it to for authenticity. I dont think rolex retailers able to check it? Im not sure tbh. This can be considered an antique rolex

What's the name.and model number of the Rolex in the title.screen?

If the box and papers is a myth then all pre-owned dealers mention about that with a little increased price?

Dealer's knees are quacking all around the world

Why vintage Longines are so underrated?

Buying a watch with box and papers as proof of originality is like buying a vintage car with the original window sticker expecting period correct repairs and parts used throughout its entire life.

RULE 1- Don't get ripped off....so don't buy from Theo and Harris?

So the moral of the story here is don't buy any watches from you, because even if you have box and papers it still may not be real. alrighty then

Great video with very useful content. Thanks. HOWEVER, you are hereby put on notice that I may have to organize a boycott amongst the Watchfam if you don't get Rolly back on camera for more frequent Friday Liquor Run's. Alternatively, talk Rolly into starting his own wine channel, "Chugging with Rolly" or something similar and you could be his regular Friday guest. Consider yourself warned.

You forgot racism and ignorance when trying to buy Tudor or Rolex watches. The closets Tudor AD to me is 3 hrs away. So I made plans to visit them this Saturday to purchase a Tudor Black Bay 36. I was soured a price of $2000 dollars.....then I was called by another salesmen in the store to only change the price to $3000 dollars and yet again to change the price by the original salesmen. This salesmen that the blue face black bay was cheaper than the Black face which I wanted. Now question of why can't I come get the watch today meaning yesterday. Now they want to know if I'm gainfully employed full time or do I plan on getting the watch on a account.....they want to know wherein work...personally I use to love the Black Bay, yet when I was in the Rolex store i was treated with respect....I'm not even in the Tudor store and I'm criminal.....I'd rather pay more money for respect. I am getting a Rolex

The quality of a $500 fake rolex today is astounding. Becoming very hard to sort the real from the fake without expertise and a jewelers loop. A

Thanks for the advice! Now we know to avoid you!!
