Thank you PM for an educational video. So losing 35k is not good, but the loss is actually greater. You have to take into account the loss in interest the money would have generated if not spent on watches. Let's say all these wathces cost 200k, and you kept them for five year(never worn!!). Had you invested this money in the most conservative investment, which genreates 4% yearly interest, after five years you'd have a profit of over 40k(not including accumulated interest). So PM paid more than 75k for the experience of purchasing the watches and putting them in a safe, never wearing them. Let that sink in.

I love watches and always preach, by what you like! These happy jewelers folks literally preached how "watches are THE BEST INVESTMENT" over the last 3 years. They told everyone to buy buy buy. "The money is safe" etc etc...I mean, they lowball Michael, and he's one of their superstar clients who has brought them many many new clients and free advertisement...IMAGINE what they would offer nobodys like you and I!

This was hard to watch. Because anytime you try to sell your watches back it’s going to always be in the favor of the one who is buying them from you. Not you the seller. So even though all of you are chummy, get along, there is still an air of animosity. Which makes it uncomfortable. Which happened here. I felt it. I saw it too. 😬😬😬

@dakotaxu4792

5 күн бұрын

I did see it too…… there was a moment, a short one, and you could feel the discomfort, the nervous laughs, the smiles which were not genuine. But it’s all part of business. It IS true however that the jewelers have to lay out the money from their own pockets immediately while the watches they buy back from you could sit on the shelf for a long time. The mind is a funny thing because you see a watch and suddenly you make a connection with it and you will do everything in your power to obtain it. Then over time the connection wanes, it fades and suddenly one day you want to trade it or sell it for the next best thing. And you lose money selling it BUT….. and this is VERY IMPORTANT TO REALIZE. If you take your calculator out and divide the amount you lost in selling it by the amount of time you had it the loss is VERY VERY SMALL. For example let’s say Producer Michael lost $27,000 on the Lange in white gold but he had it for 5 years. Basically he lost $103 a week or about $15 a day.

I used to collect watches buying as and when I liked the look of one and had spare funds...all of a sudden I had 35...some hadn't even been out of the box since store day - much like here - after taking a loss on a fair few of them when selling them on I realized it was a mugs game for us, the consumer. I scaled down the collection to 4 watches I absolutely loved and would wear regularly if the mood and occasion suited. It's worked well. Now if I see an absolute must have piece, then I stick by the rule that one in the collection has to be sold to make room. Works for me.

The liquid part made me laugh. Cash is the most liquid, followed by stocks and bonds. Luxury watches are actually fairly illiquid assets, these days I'd even argue that the used car market is more liquid because the bid/ask spread is tighter and there are more buyers. The only assets I can think of that are less liquid than luxury watches are real estate, art, and businesses.

That was very entertaining to watch, thank you Michael and Adam! Canada 🔥💪🏻

Thanks a bunch. Very informative. Great video.

Perfect for my lunch break. Love Danny & Gabe’s laugh it’s addicting

Buying watches thinking of a good “investment” and ending with 35+K loss because of happy screwers :)))

Imagine somebody selling you stuff then buying it back for a loss of over 30k and they are like it's not bad. No really you did good. Watches are a great investment 😂

The market value of these watches are way too high than what he sold for, if he sold on the internet or on 47th street he’ll make money on most of these watches, those mfs ripped him off

Love this type of content!

Brilliant.....whether winning or losing ...still laughing. Great episode..... can't wait for the next installment.

What a great sales team ! I love these guys .

Keep the sensible looking one - lol ! Great call Adam is true! Although love Michael's unique style it is what makes him. I'd be happy with a simple Datejust only, anyway. Thanks for the video always fun to watch.

No doubt PM loves this Wheeling and Dealing. Probably reminds him of his early days in business when he was hustling and loved it.

That proves that you don’t have friends when it comes to business…. They ripped him off !

They offered him more than he would have gotten anywhere else for those rolexes. It's crazy how many people don't realize that the markup on the things they buy is normally 30-50% and that's what it takes to have employees, pay the rent, keep the lights on, etc.

You know times are tough when Producer Michael is selling his watches.

Interesting video. First, it was great to see watches being sold considering many KZread channels only show watch transactions sparingly. Second, even Producer Michael who can walk into any Authorized Dealer to buy a watch at retail can lose money in today's market. Finally, I wonder how many thousands of watches are stored away in a bank in never worn condition, could have been sold to collectors who really wanted to wear them on their wrists!

Selling A. Lange & Söhne is huge mistake.

Those bigger ones are really heavy and the leather straps make them sit weird on the wrist. They also are expensive to service, but they are really beautiful.

Should have kept the Sohne (last watch) and save $25k. It's a niche market watch, but good value.

So much fun 👏🏽😂.. Happy for you Michael and you won that flip🤑😎 Btw I would love to visit Happy Jewelers and Meet Danny hopefully I get some good deals🤓⌚️💰

The Lange was a keeper for the vault.

I ordered my first watch from SHEIN last week. I should be getting it. Sometime this week.

Love this. Great video guys

Great guys. Thanks for the video! 👍

Loss is a great way to control impulse buys in the future in my opinion. Sometimes you gotta lose money to gain it later on by not wasting it on things that will depreciate, if that makes sense.

That Zeitwerk is amazing, would have kept that above the rest.

@@isigrofloyd4581 What you’re feeling is consumer price gouging. Inflation is roughly stable at 3 percent. Prices have gone up 150-200% for certain goods. That’s not inflation. That’s just companies lying to you and using the fairy tale of a “bad economy” to justify their price gouging. It becomes evident when you look at the financial statements of companies. They’re all raking in record profits because their margins have tripled or quadrupled. You’re being scammed, don’t fall for it.

I appreciate all items can take a drop. Its amazing how many older people put money in high end watches and Art in the UK. As an easy asset to pass on to family and be hidden from the care home fees assessments in later life🙂

PRODUCER MICHAEL IS THE BEST

Guys… they literally made 15% margins on this kind of deal. I see a bunch of comments saying they are scammers etc. do you think it’s fair to buy something and sell it at the same price? They’re running a business. Yes the Lange is the biggest loss but still added together, they made 15% from the watches they sold to Michael. That is like buying something for 100k and selling for 115k. That does not make you a scammer by any stretch of the imagination…

@Anonymous-wo4zu

If you’re wondering how I did the math: $279,000 is what he bought it at - 243,500 is what they bought all jt back at. This comes out to 35,500. This means this is around what their profit margin is on Michael (assuming they bought it at similar prices as what they’re offering him). $35,500/$243500 comes out to roughly 14.5%. This means they are making somewhere around 15% off their initial investment. I’d argue that is fair. They are buying expensive watches and hoping someone will buy.

I like this channel. Funny nice people who don't slag others off. Number 1

The fact he’s selling at a loss means he’s in trouble.

Why sell the A Lange? It’s a great watch Michael 🙈

Id love to see more Car videos from Michael, i really enjoy his passion for cars

Same as all dealers . When you buy it will be the greatest investment but when you sell it’s never the right model and it would have been better in a different colour. Now is the worse time economy is bad etc

Michael, out of all the watches you ever bought, that Lange was the classiest.

nkuwan You are so well-informed about luxury watches. You've obviously done your due diligence and the comparison to the US is very informative...because of course, I live in New York. thank you very much

I wish Michael would sell these to fans and get a proper price for them, giving up the James Cameron for $12.5k is a crime. C2C one can easily ask 14-15k for that. 😢 Of course it’s much more convenient to drop them all at a wholesale location.

If any of us sold these watches and made a video we would get black listed from the AD’s, but this guy won’t?

that was so fun! please make more negotiating videos

Can't wait for the video on Michael's new investment!
