I moved out of NYC a few years ago now, but I regularly attended RedBar for several years. Adam truly is a great guy. I’d only been going a few months when I mentioned I was thinking getting about a particular watch, but couldn’t decide on it, and it happened to be a watch he owned. He just handed it to me and said ‘well, try it out, you can bring it back next week’. I was amazed, and I ended up buying one a month later! Weekly RedBar meetups are probably the number one thing I miss about New York, and Adam’s energy and enthusiasm make it happen.

I concur. Despite Adam's dogmatic political stance, I think he's a cool dude!

Great interview!! I’m Dr. Jeff, RedBar Crew member number 2 and Adam’s buddy for over a decade. Great to see Adam talking about his watches, their history and importance and how RedBar came together from pure serendipity. Really enjoyed the repartee between Wei and Adam 👍🏻👊🏻

One of the most enjoyable episodes till date posted by revolution watch.

He... had to get it out of his system. Lots of it.
It makes me so happy to see how each collector brings such passion for their watches. Like for them, this is THE watch. It may not be a Patek or an AP, it can be a Gshock or an IWC and they still throughly enjoy each piece.
My favorite watch interview period! No pretentiousness here. More long interviews like this please.
Redbar! What an awesome network to be a part of. Wei Koh is the epitome of Cool!
Wish I could double “Like” this video. That’s how much I enjoyed watching it. Thanks for 40 very entertaining minutes.
Just an amazing interview. Loved it!!
Thanks guys! What a great episode. Real passion for watches and what it means in our lives.
I was waiting so Long for this video. So Glad it’s finally up. The banter between these two alone would be worth the time.
Best watch interview ever! I’ll listen to Adam over Mayer’s videos any day
Love Adam, and loved this interview, well done Wei.
Awesome interview! I like this guy.
When I first saw this I was thinking "wow, 40 minutes?" It was great though and it really flew by. Great to hear his Reverso story. I have the 2012 version with the brown strap and it was actually my first ever "luxury" watch. Not much romantic about it as I got it on eBay and I was scared to death it was going to be a fake or that I'd scratch it, but now I just enjoy it. Can't see myself parting with it either.
My RedBar Leader and friend so Proud. Nice work Wei🚀
One of the best interview so far. Love the Rolex story. It feels warm to know that there are so many watch enthusiasts out there. Hope to have the same community in Asia.
What an amazing, freaky, funky, passionate watch nerd - amazing! Great episode 👍
Best Wei interview yet. 👌
REDBAR meet in Miami this Feb. with Sophy was Fantastic. Thanks Adam, you're Awesome.
😂 Redbar London is very good, Wei is very cool, this video is excellent.
Love this video, great collector!
Adam is an amzing guy! We were both part of a outlaw dive watch forum (DWC) when the East Coast guys started meeting at the Red Bar, Yes that was the name of the place! Me being in California, the Monterey Bay area to be exact the Forum had a big following from guys up in the Bay Area and future owner of the forum Matt set up a few get togethers up in the city, usually for lunch but it never had the following like the NYC crew! Was always proud to hang at the same forum as Adam and he was such a great guy! I've got some pics of the watches at a couple get togethers before there was a RedbarSF!
LMAO! The most interesting watch in the collection (JLC Incursion on His wrist) didn’t even get mentioned 😆
Great vlog great guy Enjoy
Adam - fantastic interview & congrats on growth of RedBar. This really represents the next generation of Enthusiast Horological Community. Always a great discussion with Wei Koh. Would like to see more of the two of you. Hope to catch you at IWC next time I’m in NYC, sorry we missed you last time...
great episode! Love the "dad" stories
That was excellent!, thanks!
Another great guest and video 👍
This was so great! More! More more :D
Adam, nice JLC NSA you have on. I have the same. Love the articulated rubber bracelet! Still one of the favorites of my collection. We communicated about it several years ago on WUS when it came out. Enjoyed the video and wish you continued success of Redbar! Subbed to the channel. Keep up the great watch content and interesting interviews!
"Blowing dust farts out of their refined assholes" is the quote of the day!
Hey Wei Koh and Craniotes, Dave from Riccardo Fine Engraving, used to engrave for RGM watch, does phenomenal work! Got my Reverso engraved with an Octopus sinking a submarine with the hull number for my service in the Navy. Give him a look!
POOOOOP SHOES 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 LOVE YOU WEI
Is it me or does anyone else find Wei's background noise annoying? Yes, right, absolutely hahahahahaha. Great stories Adam despite the noise.
I wish there would be anything along the lines of redbar meetings in Ireland.

Best 60 seconds i ever witnessed in my life
Superb conversation, I’d love to be part of Redbar!
Came for the watches. Stayed for the poop talk.
Super good content!
Not enough images of the watches
This is why I come to Revlution and Wei Koh. You don't get that poop talk on Hodinkee!
I dont get why revolution doesnt have more subs and traffic
didn't want the video to end
yes.
Wei, come along to a RedBar London meeting next time you're in town
Wei's mountain of poop will allow him to reach the moon... good thing he's a Speedmaster collector.
Do they have a chapter in hong kong?
I know somebody stoned to the gills when I see one. Wei has had a good smoke before this interview
Must be nice to have a rich mom

Is there a Red Bar chapter in LA?
36:09 - Don't do that.. most people who don't wear reverso regularly always do that. Always slide the case, don't shut.
Need a RedBar chapter in the Lafayette, LA area.....
Best interview funny guy
Weirdest opening comments ever
😂 Kill it with Fire🤣!!!
That was feckin awesome real chilled two dudes chatting shit about watches no pretence .grate viewing indeed 👌
That intro was pure $#!t 😂
I have know idea what RedBar is. I’m just here for the way watches
Great interview with Adam, but I also don’t give a poop about someone’s fecal matters!
I cringed when Wei flipped the Reverso. Adam probably did too as he made a point of how to do it correctly without potentially damaging the top edge of the case: Incorrect flipping technique: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k4t8rJKJdsjIiqw.html Correct flipping technique as explained by Adam: kzread.info/dash/bejne/k4t8rJKJdsjIiqw.html
That guy has massive wrists gawdamm
Number one rule of doing a good interview, don't talk and look directly into the camera when you are talking to someone sitting next to you.
All the poop talk. Very classy this Wei Koh man is
What? He was 39 and got his mother to buy him a watch?....some of these people are really weird, living in a bubble

A group chat at college about how we were all funding education and keeping our heads above water. One guy's solution to lack of funds was wearing beaten up clothes and turning up late to see his mother complaining of car trouble. Appalled at her twenty-year-old looking scruffy, she raised his allowance and insisted that he go shopping with her so she would treat him to new outfits. Everyone else busting their humps to keep money coming in... Not really impressed by his quick tip. Some people just dont know any different from how they've lived.
Poop Shoes... Wei??? you need a better editor.
What a strange opening! Otherwise it was pretty good.
Adam is quite childish for a "professional" in the industry. Dude was disrespectful to Teddy Baldassare for absolute no reason other than to get attention. Unfortunately he and people like Barbara Palumbo are the ones that end up ruining the watch industry with their self-entitled snobbish ways not to mention the way they bully people like they are still in high school. No respect for this guy at all.
Lots of shit talking (AKA: poop) at the beginning of this video.
My claim to fame is he blocked me.
