Masterstroke by Rolex. Geniuses in marketing.

For those bold colors I prefer 36mm

Would make sense for a younger crowd as well

I always wonder why they never launch a Tiffany blue Datejust 36 and 41. Then again it would've create an unnecessary hype and the usual unavailability.

Hated that cannot be obtained and hated because it was discontinued too fast. However, whatever they release mania never stops.

Yes that's true. We all want what we can't have don't we :)

Biggest mistake? They literally converted the model line that nobody wanted into the most difficult pieces to acquire. People lust for these pieces, when just two years ago they sat in the display cases. I'd say that's a win, not a mistake.

Yes indeed, I mention exactly this! In doing so they managed to also ensure that their target audience is the last to get one of these watches. Watches that were meant to draw in a new wave customers.

The tiff 5711 is the first ever triple branded watch. Lol. “There’s nothing crazy about it” I mean ya. You’re right. It’s just a watch but hey who am I to say lol

Agree. OP success priced many of us out of Rolex completely.

I wonder if they even had a clue as to how popular it would become!

I argue that an OP is not really an entry level watch. It uses the same movement as an Explorer and no-date Sub. Not even the marketing specifies it's an entry level. It's again hype and social media that makes you believe it's entry level. The OP was worn to summit Mount Everest and also used as a navigational industry to sail solo around the Clipper route in 1966. kzread.info/dash/bejne/iqZmsa-PqqyZopM.html

That is true! But it is entry level Rolex. It's their most inexpensive and basic offering :)

Why is the second hand on your watch at 2:47 moving backwards?

The clip is played in reverse 🔄. Because of focus reasons that’s the best way to get a smooth shot

Guessing you’re new to the hobby. There’s no correct wrist, it’s personal preference and also dependent on hand dexterity.

Kind of babbled without a point and repeated the same phrase 40 times. Could have been a 30 second video. Aimless video.

I ensured that wouldn't be the case while writing my script, but good to know if that's how it came across to you. Perhaps you'd like to try some other video I've made?

Agreed. Less opinion videos bro (not your strength), more watch reviews of interesting watches.

@@StandardTime I've seen almost all of your videos andI encourage you to do more but this one was repetitive and aimless in my opinion. Also a bit dramatized where controversy was minimal and at times seemed like you were arguing with yourself and a bit contradictory. I don't think you should quit opinion videos but perhaps a better and clear approach to them would help. Wish you success.

Meandering from the start.....not sure what his point was.

The whole video you’re implying, that basically rolex doesn’t know what they’re doing. They didn’t do it right. The company that profits something like 1 billion dollars, the most sought after hard to get, top of the luxury watch segment, but the whole video you’re accusing them they don’t know what they’re doing. It’s pretty amazing really. Apparently you need to be the next CEO of Rolex.

What are you mumbling on about ffs?!
