Buying a fake Rolex is a very special experience. You can feel yourself losing brain cells, everyone hates you, and your watch doesn't work. It's great.
Today the boys discuss that time Michael accidentally bought a fake Rolex and Christian wore a fake Day-Date to a high school entrance exam (I've never heard of a high school entrance exam). The boys also talk about why Christian rests his watch on the crown, taking photos of a Rolex Datejust upside down, a $400,000 green Patek Philipe Nautilus, Timex's new California dial, a Cartier for clams, Junghans, and much much MORE.
Are you interested in Rolex? Omega? Grand Seiko? Tudor? You've come to the right spot!

I found out that for five years, I was wearing a fake Submariner, but I paid for a real one. Apparently, the company ziarex makes those mega clones. I tried to find my dealer, but he is gone. I did research, and they have a whole section of watches. They

Yeah this is such a great episode too. Bubble butt. Michael's fake Rolex that actually might be real. This was a great one!
You two should take this on the road! I was laughing my butt off! Your family stories are so relatable to other families! Stories about that “generation” of hardened old men never ceases to provide humor when retold today. Watches are a side note. Hats off guys!
I look forward to these videos! Always a pleasant surprise when I see a new one uploaded. The banter between the two of you and the topics are top! I would very much enjoy sitting down getting merry and talking watches with you two!
Been loving these episodes. You guys are fun to watch. Keep up the awesome work, boys!!
I really look forward to T&H videos. Your channel chemistry, family, everything you do for the watch industry, is why I keep coming back to watch more.
Whenever I wake up and watch one of these videos, it makes my day a great one! Thank you for making such interesting videos.
Love the banter between the both of you very entertaining!
Enjoyed it guys, keep up the good work!
Always a pleasure watching your content
these videos are amazing! you guys are a great duo
Great one guys. Really fun.
Great video guys, that was fun to watch!!
If I had the opportunity to make $400k+ flipping a single watch - I would absolutely do it (even if it meant I got blacklisted). The fact is this is a once in a lifetime moment of factors (inflation, pandemic, peak luxury watch demand). Take the money and don't look back

These talks with you two are spectacular
Another great episode guys!
Loved the jokes in this episode, especially the wrench jokes about your grandfather haha
Superb gentlemen. I adore these vids.
Show us the "fake" Rolex. Would be so funny if it's real.
Damn i love these videos, they are so entertaining

Man when you drink with your Mike on it gives me shivers , the sound makes me crazy , I’m fully aware that that is my problem but it’s just something I can’t bear
Hmm, crown; TDIL. Another funny and enjoyable class and news update from my favorite youngsters. Thank you, guys!
Love these... The story about your grandfather's wrench killed me, keep up the great conent!
One of your best ever!
Good explanation on the California dial. Just another thing Rolex came to market first with. I always thought it was Panerai but in fact it was Rolex!
16:00 "That's kind of what I said."😄 Michael is hilarious. I watched that part like 12 times.
Thank you so much 🙏 For the content. For being open to any brand regardless the price or hype. For being honest and authentic. For being so entertaining and cool. @Christian for admitting that you love your family. I feel like in quarantine - locked at home - but you made my day 👍
Really entertaining discussions. Crown down? I always place my watch down with the dial facing up (back of watch rests against the bracelet/buckle, usually I try to make a stand out of it so the dial is elevated at an angle, if that makes sense)
😂😂 the stories at the end had me dying 😂😂 good shit gents 🍻
"It's not Arabic, it's regular numbas." Hahahahahahaahah!!
Love hanging out with you guys
my mom when I was a kid gave me a timex Ironman and I loved it and have been into watches ever since when my grandpa passed he left me an Edox watch I don’t think it’s worth much but means so much, it’s nice I always look forward to your videos
Stopped watching your channel for a while cause I felt that it got a little stagnant. But I’m loving this new format. Great work guys 👍🏼
The casual reference to Pak Hendra was gold 😂

@@pjyothi6533 Rudy Kurniawan was possibly the greatest wine counterfeiter, who fooled great wine collectors like Bill Koch. When it all started to unravel Rudy stated that he received the wines from a collector in Indonesia called Pak Hendra. Pak actually means 'Mr' and Hendra is a very common name, so basically he was saying 'Mr Smith'! Watch the documentary 'Sour Grapes', which tells the story and is excellent viewing!
Hey, have you guys ever thought about releasing the audio for these videos in podcast form? A few channels i follow, notably the Pete and Sebastian Show, does this. I think it would be pretty cool because sometimes I, and im sure other people, would love to listen to this as their driving or walking or taking the train.
Cartier occasionally still does the whole visceral shapes inspiration thing! The Ballon Bleu being inspired by a pebble one of the most major, and it's been Cartier's best seller since its inception about 15 years ago!
I seldom comment on videos but had to thank you guys for doing what you do! It's so nice and relaxing listening to you guys banter about watches and stuff after a long and stressful day of work. Highlight of my day today.
Being from Staten Island guys like that guy are why I wont add a Rolex to my collection. Everyone on Staten Island who has one knows nothing and just buys them for the name. Wont be lumped into that mess.
Most excited about that Timex, such a beautiful watch
Glad to see Christian is back to form.
All the pictures were taken at 10:10…. such an underrated statement 😂
Both your watches are incredible.
great video guys!! I must say though Im surprised christian even knows what a wrench is..... lol. btw wheres anna these days?
bring the chapters back
Lmfaoo that flash back 💀🤣
My experience with swissarex was fantastic. The watch arrived quickly and was exactly as described.
I inherited my grandads omega geneve dynamic from the 70s. The oval shaped case is quite a different look. It was in awful shape but I sent it back to Omega for a fiull service and strap replacement. Love wearing it and knowing not many people have anything similar hah.
I'm confused. that Patek story came out in July, including the details of the guys name. is there a timewarp in New Jersey?
36:13 that look on Christian face... 😆
I read an article that the person who sold the 5711. Owned a Patek AD but lost it. This 5711 was one of the last watches delivered to them.
Worked in a jewelry store back in college. One of the hardest things to do was tell people, who brought in what they thought was valuable, that their pieces were fake.
I wear today an "Explorer GMT II" clone and despite the caliber is far to achieve the level of the original, works decently since almost four years.
When I read the title, I was expecting you to feature the Tudor Two Tone Chronograph with fake gold and fake screws.
I have a fake Rolex Submariner that says Relax Substitute on the dial. The pun was too nice to pass up.
The mustache is fantastic!
Mustache for the win! 👍
I rest my watch on the crown for the same exact reason. I’ve heard it can affect the movement, but it helps my watch still look pretty. Ya know, priorities. Thanks for the great content fellas, look forward to these discussions every week. It’s like an awesome podcast but with more chest hair.

I heard the person that auctioned off that Patek was the son of some prominent jewelry store and Patek AD in the UK… I believe they recently went out of business or lost their AD license with Patek and they had that watch and auctioned it.
TheWatchGuys channel covered the story behind auctioning the green 5711. Basically, it was sold by the Patek AD that recently closed down and needed to get rid of their inventory. They didn't care about being blacklisted by Patek.

Also, watch makers tune the watch with the crown like that because it’s the position your watch is in most of the time (if you’re right handed). Arm to your side, crown facing the ground, which is the same as putting the watch on the crown on the table. My watch maker said when you sleep leave it on the table with the crown down. It’s how it runs most optimal. (Or so I’ve heard)

Same here, my watchmaker is an older man from a different time period so I take his advice most of the time ..
I love the maxbill chronoscope and Junghans as a brand… but they just made a mvmt watch
It was a relation of someone who owned a AD which where closing down, I think in London.
Nice Tash , goes well with a vintage datejust …😬
Maybe this is Rolex’s end game. To flood the gray market with legits and the public market with fakes
I watch these videos when I workout lol

Counterpoint to the crown position, when movements proclaim they are adjusted to 5 positions, the 6th is usually the crown position which means resting it like that makes your watch run minimally worse than usual. You have to be analfor this to matter but lets not pretend thats not a lot of us.
"It's worth nothing." vs "It's priceless. "👌
Did they end up showing the explorer?

Guys.. brilliant talk but I think you should place the camera/tripod a litter farther. It looks too zoomed in.
