I enjoyed that - Casey has a very smooth and eloquent way of describing some of the concepts behind Swiss watches and Rolex, I love that! The Explorer is surely one of the biggest legendary names from the brand... I reckon the Sub is the most recognizable but the Explorer is certainly more versatile in styling. I would say Rolex holds value better than just about any brand, only names that are comparable would be Patek and possibly AP. That Hublot is cool but you probably lose quite a chunk of value once it's out of the packaging. Best regards from Downunder! Ivan.

Way to go Antonio! I LOVE mine. It’s my favorite of all of my watches.
I've had mine over four years now. It's a fantastic, versatile watch. My only grope is that I wish it didn't have the maxi case that makes the lugs bigger.
I have one question: Is there anything wrong with hoodies and if so, what are the problems?
Sorry if this is out of the topic but i would like to ask if a one button suit jacket is suitable for an interview. Thank you for your help.
I love the birds in the background as I look out my window and everything is buried in the snow!

What’s the price range for the watch?
Really like the Explorer 1 in the latest reiteration. Very versatile timepiece!
perfect watch in what sense? value preservation or creation? i felt that since explorer 1016 is getting more and more expensive, perhaps the tritium 14270 (from 1989 to before early 1998) should be the next inline to grow in value while you enjoy the watch by wearing it on a daily basis to watch the gradual beauty of the patina on the dial. And i think this 214270 is way too big and 36mm is perfect size.

My favorite Rolex is the new Explorer in 39mm with lume on the numbers. It's perfect.
Torn between the Explorer I and the Air King. I'm leaning Air King, but both are terrific watches.

They didn’t really go into too much detail about the actual specs of the watch. It’s most likely the new 214270. Unless he bought it used, in which case it’s either a 14270 or a 114270.

Real Men Real Style That's the article! As a segue to this subject, I added an Omega Seamaster to my collection because of the Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig Bonds who wore it. : )
Superlative chronometer means that it still meets cosc standards after casing...
For me , it’s the datejust . I really can’t get myself to buy a watch without a date complication !
This is a great watch. The only complaint I have is that it doesn't have a date window. Other than though it's nearly perfect.
Sorry Antonio, it’s the GMT Master II in blue and red, or classic Omega Speedmaster Proffessional (Moon watch) for me.

904L scratches easier than 316L but its better for salt water corrosion resistance. I learned this the hard way on my GMT II BLNR
WTF is this guy saying?! Rolex's watches are the only waterproof watches?! Why do you think some of their watches are rated to 100 meters and some 3,900 meters? No watch is truly waterproof. And 904L steel isn't "superstrong". 904L steel is just more corrosion resistant than 316L steel.

What watch did you get for $400? Also, can you expect to receive a discount if you are buying multiple Rolex watches - if so, how much?
@DerekTruty
6 жыл бұрын
The ORIS TT1 Williams F1Team Day-Date is the watch mentioned in the video which I bought for $400. As for getting a discount that will really depend on the dealer. Most will do some sort of discount but there are many factors that come in to play when you're talking about how much of a discount. One of the things we teach is negotiation tactics you can use to try and increase your discount If you choose to buy from an Authorized Dealer or get some extra added benefits like a free first cleaning of the watch which can cost thousands all by itself.

Hi Derek, Hi Casey, I asked myself exactly that question a few years back already but could not find the information until NOW! Just singed up and hope to be in ur next beta group! I look forward being invited to whatever you choose to invite me to. Look out for the e-mail ending with .de - im from Germany Since asking myself that question I have already bought a used Steinhart which I still own and really love and recently a used Tissot. Both chronographs and with a Valjoux 7750 which I really like too. To buy I also the advice I got from by dad buying cars over the years. I did not want to loose at least so much money when I will decide to sell them. That was my short story. Great, great idea! I whish you all the best.

i really like Bulovas, i will be purchasing two watches soon and give you a review. i have 2 vincero watches and honestly i was not happy, they look nice but honestly very cheap. The handles messed up within a few weeks of wearing it without doing any extreme physical activity. When contacted customer service they never replied back and up to this day waiting on a response. Never again.
You can buy like three brand new Rolex Explorer with the price of the Hublot he is wearing!! Crazy stuff man...
Nice
Nice video
The perfect watch is a pocket watch that keeps accurate time. And it doesn't have to be expensive. That's why I get a watch pocket added to my pants when the suspender buttons are put on and the leg length adjusted. Pocket watches are also good with vests - I have several of those.
Not sure there is a perfect watch, that's why I have six. Each fits a need or a look I want at on any given day.

Although waterproof is a term that Rolex uses, it apparently has to do with their screw-down crown and case back, of which they have a patent on at least one of. This does not mean they cannot fail and jumping off a cliff into water could be one of the things to make it do so. I would trust that properly used and maintained, Rolex watches can withstand their depth ratings and possibly beyond. This does not mean that other companies that list "water resistance" as their terminology, can't actually live up to their ratings. There are other water resistance systems from different manufacturers that are arguably better than Rolex's as well.

Why do I have a Rolex Explorer Rev. 1016? Because my mom bought it for my dad. I loved my dad. He's been gone for a long time; but when I wear his watch, I feel like he is with me. The watch looks great. I love its simplicity. Most of my other watches have the date complication; I have come to hate that. I've had it serviced by Rolex twice now and, I am sad to say, they replaced the original domed acrylic crystal with a semi-domed crystal. Someday I will replace that with a domed crystal.

Interesting point that nobody seems to mention. The Explorer is actually 39.5mm. Compare that to the OP 39 which is actually 38.5mm. It's no wonder the explorer wears bigger

A great watch no doubt, but I think the explorers strength lies in the ability to be worn in every setting, only bond can pull off a diver in a suit. I have both in my collection, i would say get the sub because its awesome and pick up a seiko sarb033 or 035 for something in between full on sport diver and dress watch
Watches are awesome👍👍👍👍👍👍
That is great watch. My goal is the Rolex Hulk Baby. Semper Fi
Congrats on the Explorer Devil
My perfect watch: affordable stylish date I love watches. But I also question why I need one (or many). There are so many places I can look for the date and time! My last boss never wore a watch. He said "I can look at my phone." He was always late for meetings. :-) My ex-girlfriend questioned my sanity when she saw how many watches I had. During our year and a half together she bought me two watches!! Like The Doors said "People are Strange."
Rolex Explorer is a timeless classic, well balanced time piece. You see perfection in its imperfection. That is why it is the perfect watch when you own a Rolex Explorer.
Love watches !

I'll buy it if it comes with free shipping.
No the GMT MASTER II is the perfect watch but the explorer 1 is the watch i want next
Yet if I get another Rolex, I will opt for the explorer, or the Tudor Black Bay Dark.....which will be a birthday present to me...
Rolex Sub No Date the best!
real deal life coach
Nah I'll stick to vincero and the 5th as recommended by antonio 😬
The perfect Rolex watch is the No Date Subamariner 5513. In fact this can be your only "One" watch.
nothing beats my adventure time watch :v
2 things: it’s not just for gents.. and the 36mm is the best model Explorer.
One of my major pet peeves is when someone makes a purchase and then puts it out to mass consumers to justify for them why it was such a great purchase.
Antonio, did you end up picking up an Explorer as well? 😎👍
The Explorer is a true under the radar gem. Unfortunately, it is not the perfect watch. The main problem is that since it is considered an entry level watch, the want and desire to swim upstream is really hard to resist. I think subjectively it may be considered a perfect entry level Rolex. As for the one watch to rule them all, Daytona Ceramic, you pick the dial color.
Explorer is one of the best Rolex make, period.
Antonio you should feature Christian from Theo and Harris in a video!
