Hey Oisin, your channel should be illegal as every time I watch one of your Rolex unboxing videos I want to buy a Rolex myself which I can't really afford. Congrats on another beautiful watch mate. As a cancer survivor my philosophy has changed. I say live life to the fullest as tomorrow is promised to no one.

Not just an unboxing, but a really good insight into the history and detail of a model that previously I didn’t know so much about. Thank you!

Stickers are like a scab. The urge to pick is overwhelming, resistance is futile.

Life is short, Oisin. Tear the plastic off and enjoy your new watch!

If he wear it would lose thousands in value. Wear the other watches, sometimes you have to protect your investments, nothing wrong with that. A watch can be enjoyed in many ways, also in ways that does not include wearing it on the wrist. But of course, nothing wrong with wesring it either, if that's what you really want to...!

Totally agree. I'll never understand people that buy things and never use them. Even if they are "investments". He could wear and enjoy it for 10 years then sell it for probably 3/4 of what he paid for it. At the rate Rolex is going, if it's not beat to hell he could possibly get all his money back. Just put that sucker on your wrist and enjoy it!

@@timothy9596 Well, if you have many watches it's nothing wrong with keeping a few just for investment purposes. You can still enjoy a watch without actually wearing it, I sometimes take out pieces like that and just look at them sipping a whisky, nothing wrong with that. We are all different, if we all were the same and everyone used every watch you would never be able to see 60-70 year old wrist watches in "as new" condition as someone decided to not wear them. We don't all have to behave the same way.

Don't stop making videos. They are the most genuine and informative (not just about watches) videos on KZread. You take it up a level. Excellent work and congratulations on the purchase.

this is what enjoying life looks like

I think I'm becoming a true fan of your style, content, music and aura that embraces this thing called watch collecting.

Damn it man! This video pushed me over the edge. Yeah, plus the stock market being insanely high, my 73rd birthday coming up, and the Army and Air Force Exchange having a sale on watches, I purchased the Omega equivalent: the Planet Ocean; black dial with 2 lines of orange text, 600 meters. Do I need it? No, I already own a perfectly fine SMP 300 and I was just saying to myself I don't need any more watches but it's totally your fault! BTW, rip the f**king stickers off and wear the damn thing! Now I have to go out and buy an expensive bottle of Kentucky Bourbon :-)

Well, if you’ve got the cash sitting around not doing much and a passion for horology why not? Rolex steel sports are certainly a safe bet and may even be a shrewd long term investment. Yer man has certainly got his head screwed on right.

6:43 I've been saying this for just over 3 years now, when I noticed that Rolex updated their website with the Mk2. It quickly occurred to me that the Mk1 was the only true 50th and I got mine just in time. I'm wearing it right now. I also have a Mk2 tucked away in the safe deposit box for my son since it's its favorite watch. The two differences I know of without getting the loop out and going deeper is the crown and the "1" in "1220m" for the Mk1 is a straight line (I) whereas there is a slight wisp at the top of the "1" in the Mk2.

Just picked up my Sea Dweller DS from my AD in New York a couple of months ago. I absolutely love it! The large case and hefty feel project a quality that only Rolex can offer. All points of finish are just perfect. The Deep Sea is just pure badass. I wear my watches everyday. No safe queens for me. This watch will see decades of hard use. It has found a good home.

I'm 6'4" and the dweller is a MUST!! LOVE IT!!

love seeing the sub beside sea-dweller. Crikey...what a beast...

Your first lines of dialogue made me burst out laughing, well done Sir, thank you Oisin. Another gem.

You have my attention...Cigars, wine, whisky and watches, all my loves into one episode.

@Mr Sigma There is no massive cost of owning a Rolex. I bought and still own a 15200 bought brand new in Jan 1991. Up until Sep last year, it was on my wrist 24-7. It has NEVER been serviced and still works as good as the day it was bought. The chances of a Violet robbery in the UK unless you are being daft is very remote.

@nathanielhannan4860

I have quite a few of them, Mr. Sigma. The costs of service and insurance are negligible. There isn’t an opportunity cost of investment because they’re not investments-if I wasn’t buying them, I wasn’t putting the money in my brokerage either. Dealer margin is priced in up front in msrp. Violent robbery? I’m American and I pack heat; I’m covered.

Congrats! Been wearing mine the last few weeks. Perfect for a larger wrist. Awesome piece, and you can never have enough steel stunners.

Congrats on the "necessary" purchase! I hope you enjoy it and wear it. I wore my Explorer 1016 leaving green decal on the back until the adhesive loosened to where the decal started sliding out and I was afraid I would lose it. Then I pulled the decal and put in the box. Later I gifted the watch to my daughter.

Awesome great to watch at 5am before work

Oisin, this video propelled you into the hall of fame of watch you tubers! Simply classic, understated, and such valuable content! Well done! Time to enjoy a Hibiki now...

I’m waiting on “ the call” from my AD for a SD43 Mark II. Two months and counting... Congratulations!! What a gorgeous watch.

Loved your intro! Lately, I've been missing your witty dialogue, unique perspectives, talented photography & creative music. Oh, also your watch commentary. Stay safe and enjoy your life in Italy.

Sat and enjoyed this with a couple of beers - great video as always!

Passed on the JC DSSD for the mk2 SD43. Even with my 8&1/2 inch wrist it didn’t wear as well as the SD43. I absolutely love it.

Gotta love the intro of the concerned pauper to the affluent prince...LOL! Also, love the wine!

Been waiting a long time for this!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Opted for the SD43 over a Sub Date as my first Rolex from the AD. Was able to try them both on and preferred the look/feel of the SD43. Remain on the list for a Batgirl.

The opening segment gave me a belly laugh.. another awesome watch and video. Thanks for sharing Oisin..

Great video, as customary. I woke my wife with a loud laugh at the intro. Learned about the watch, the wine, the whiskey and the cigars. Congrats on a cracking watch!

The guy is interested in the history and the aesthetics that each piece provides. Similar, yes, and yet very different. Just like lining up three bottles of wine. They are all just bottled of wine, the same, right? Well, yes and no. To quote Æon Flux: “You can't give it, can't even buy it and you just don't... *get* it”.

Hahahahaha I love how you started the Vid bro !!!!

Congratulations on a beautiful purchase. I was lucky enough to get one back in 2017. I have same problem as you with the big wrist and love wearing my 43SD. ENJOY 🥂🍾

"Stick to the essentials " ! Lol Ironically I was thinking along the same line when looking at a Grand Seiko a couple days ago. Now I may be going back for an essential item. You only live once right? Congrats on your new piece and great video as usual!

This gave me a laugh. Good stuff! keep pouring out the great content :)!

I can't skip in your videos. That would be sacrilegious. They way you build your videos and the suspense, is what makes it.

Love it! Just got one of my own from the AD. It’s definitely my favorite Rolex.

I consider you a Renaissance man with your choice of wine ,whiskey or a cigar very exquisite taste. continues to show us how is done.

Congrats! If only we could have a once-weekly TWC unboxing video. They hit all the right notes for me. Well done.

Another superb video. Love these and have been tempted to get one, but already have a Deepsea which has been my daily wearer on and off for 10 years. Only issue is that my Sub feels tiny when I put it back on!

Entertaining episode. I was hoping for an interesting watch to go along with it, but still. Your videos are always enjoyable.

I like your videos. I have watched so many watch reviews and the nice thing about yours is that they don’t feel rushed; and it doesn’t feel that you have an agenda.

Congrats on the new watch. I for one believe a great maduro goes perfectly with a great single malt. An absolute party for the senses. Never met a Lagavulin I didn't like.

I mean, let's be real here, a man can stay in Bordeaux his entire life and be just fine.

Oh man!! Save your money in these unsure times....hmmm Yay!!! Oisin put it in a watch❤️ Got to love it:) Wine and a new Rolex makes life feel so much better!!!! Love the Chanel

Hilarious start to your video! I have followed that exact same logic!

Always have a good time watching your videos. There is always something I learn, not just about watches but also about about culture.

nice! new edition cheers!! this is my go to for the daily

Buddy your addicted to Watches, it’s a fabulous thing! Keep it proportional, congratulations!

I love your preludes to the watch. That Irish literary tradition used to speak of great time pieces. And a drinky winky. I for one, like to 'spark' up. The Tuscans are a lovely beverage.

Hi Oisin, thanks for cheering me up ; as a fellow big ape; with a lovely mellow Video making me laugh out loud and with admiration on your Sea Dweller. Unfortunately we have had to cremate my best friend today ; which hurts like hell. As it should. Funerals are bizarre these days. We are draining an 18 year old Glenfiddich at 9.00 pm in his memory. He was also a big watch fan; and loved watching your Videos with me. He was a musician, though only tinkered, not like yourself. He had a wonderful sense of humour; was an inspired artist and teacher. He was no Saint, but who amongst us is? The World will be a sadder place without him. Thanks so much for lifting my spirits!

Just happy to see a new video from you Oisín, it was a tough day at work, going to have a glass of wine and watch (pardon the pun) this!

Congratulations !!! Always love your videos

Love this watch too. Just pickup MK2 on Monday

Great and highly entertaining videos as always, thank you! I love this watch but decided on the new 41mm ND sub recently. The SD almost looks comically large in comparison!

I could watch you quaffing wine all day. Congrats on the red line 👍🏻

As a bigger guy (6’4 210) looking to buy his first Rolex, would you recommend the SD43 or a 41 sub? My everyday watch now is a 47mm Panerai. Looking for something a little smaller for everyday wear. My only fear is I don’t want the 41 to look too small.

Wow! You got a Mark 1... there is so few of those out there and even fewer NOS. Good buy man

Very relaxing vid to watch.Enjoy the Sea Dweller. I recently bought a bottle of Redbreast 12 and it's already making me forget about my Scotches..Can't wait to try the 21

I love your channel. I always have a glass of wine with you. I learn about watches and wine. I could listen to your voice all day 👏👏

Agreed, it’s a beautiful piece, enjoy.

Outstanding as usual. Congratulations on getting my favorite Rolex.

Thank you so much for the speedy bottle opening method. Xx

Congrats man - awesome piece.

Very well made a life style video. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

I laughed out loud at your reaction to the Red Breast 21, fantastic!

I tried one on at my dealer. It is a very heavy watch. Rolex was not aiming that watch at the average consumer. I needed a a day to think about buying it and of course it was gone the next day. Congratulations.

Excellent watch!! Love the SD43. Trying to get it at an AD since the last 8 mths, almost there. Currrntly selling at about 2500 USD above its retail here in UAE ( the current model) not the MK1 dial.

Locations, soundtrack, watch review...and wine. The people have spoken 🙂

Starting watching for the watch review.... Subscribed when whisky and cigar talk started. Well done
