Kevin O'Leary's Hot Takes on Watches & Wonders 2024 and the Watch Industry
A couple of months ago, Mr. Wonderful and I met up in Geneva during Watches & Wonders 2024. We discussed the industry in general, our favorite pieces we saw during the show, and whether Kevin considers all the other brand's exhibiting outside Watches & Wonders "Pirates".

I think tudor had some cool pieces. Cartier had some cool jewelry watches for women.

@@robin2thek agreed on Tudor. Some of the high Jewelry pieces from Cartier were insane.
For those who are confused about Kevin O'Leary's statement: he said the first watch he purchased was a Cartier. However, his first watch was a 1976 Speedmaster given to him by his dad. The difference is that the Speedmaster was his first watch but was a gift, whereas 10 years later, he personally purchased his first watch, which was the Cartier Panthere.

He also killed two people on Lake Muskoka and launched the least successful bid to be Canadian Prime Minister of ALL TIME 😂

@7:14 their website says $3,277.00 for that exact model. Not sure what the custom part is that Mr. O'Leary is mentioning.
WilliamWood Chrono regular production is on the $3k. The $7k may be a special order or that specific one for Shark Tank.
For the last several years, Tudor has released some amazing models: the Marine Nationale FXD, the BB54, the new BB58GMT. Glad to see Nomos keeping the Tangente fresh with the new dial offerings.
Fun interview. Thanks for the insights.
Outstanding choices
He seldom talks about Cartier. And now that he got the crash, he starts talking about it. Definitely a promo for his access to buy the crash. I’m jealous

Why do i feel he's plugging cartier to get the crash? Here he said his first watch was a cartier... I remember in another video he said his 1st watch was an omega..... What a scam

Why do you hold what people on internet say as gospel? The vast majority of everything you see in virtual reality is fake
Did anyone else catch when Kevin's Journe clanged against the table? OUCH!!!!!!!

wearing 2 watches lol !
This just shows how some people who are blessed to have millions on their bank account can have a horrible taste - wearing two watches, wtf… They want to be different, even if it’s a bad taste
O’Leary sux
