I bought my first Rolex from the AD (36mm Explorer) last week at the age of 45 as a celebration of retiring from the British Army. Going to wear it everyday and treasure it.

It’s the best watch for everyday wear it’s so dang comfortable it’s hard to take it off. Hope you’re enjoying it and enjoying being out of the army. Well deserved and a perfect field watch that really can be worn doing anything.

The white gold Pepsi GMT with the meteorite dial is my grail

Congratulations on the upcoming purchase. While vintage will always have unmatched character, there is also something special about a modern Rolex that will perform at spec - and into which you can embed your own memories and moments and sentiments...

I saw the WG GMT in your IG and its a beauty! Congrats again on the new watch, Christian!

The blue and red bezel with the blue dial is very nice (much better than a black dial IMO), and white gold elevates this watch above just common steel. Great watch!

Beautiful choice. Love the Rolando / father and son connection. Wear it well my friend. Super proud of your continued success.

I missed this podcast whim it aired. Congratulations Christian. Wear it in the very best of health.

I own the pepsi gmt in wg with blue dial, it's amazing. The heft and the stealth nature is awesome. Do which RSC hadn't introduced additional watches via dial swapping however.

"You don't remember that there are people out there that never owned a Rolex until they were 40" is just one of the many standout lines in this video that are causing me to wonder if this channel is actually a subversive, American-Psycho-esque satire on flex-obsessed bro-culture.

@@category-theory "I drive a G wagon..." is a spectacular starting point for therapy to begin healing the childhood trauma that manifests itself in a vehicle that doesn't do anything particularly well beyond burning gasoline and broadcasting its price tag to strangers. It tracks with the video's point that buying a white-gold Rolex is some sort a stealth move (as if a Rolex is stealth) because nobody can tell it's white gold...but then taking to KZread to make sure as many people as possible know you bought a white-gold Rolex.

Christian, this was one of your best videos - very authentic and real. Congrats in advance on your white gold Pepsi GMT, it is a stunner of a watch. My favorite Rolex is my latest one - a 124270 36mm Explorer. It is effortless to wear all day, but still feels robust, the way a Rolex should.

It’s a watch that feels so dang natural on the wrist not to sound like an douchesnozzle but I almost feel naked without it on.

I love hearing what watches you guys want to get, but can we get an updated Christian’s watch collection video and a video about Michael’s watch collection please?

Yes you guys hit the nail on the head. We as watch enthusiasts collectors forget that some of these watches are very special for many people. I didn’t buy my first new Rolex until I was 45. Many men grow up with the “one day I’m gonna get me a Rolex when I’m 40/50/60 years old”. It’s more special when you approach watches (Rolex) like that. This is why many AD’s prefer to sell a Rolex to that working man who turned 45, or the new grandfather at 55 years of age. Rolex was once the go to brand for older adults.

Christian I must say I have a new respect for you with buying what you love to impress yourself and not others when purchasing a watch. Most people who purchase gold watches want yellow or rose gold in order to impress others and to flex. It takes a person with confidence to purchase what "they" love and not others. I too love white gold watches.

As I continue into my watch journey I am too leaning towards more unique lesser known models even though I still love that Smurf that’s a heck of a piece!

Christian make sure you go after a newer white gold Pepsi - the one with the blue lacquer dial. The dial color is currently not available in any other model and is stunning. I’ve been waiting for mine at retail from a local AD for a couple of years and not sure or expect to be allocated one after being offered (and gladly purchasing) the Batman recently.

Do you have a link for the swatch film/video you mentioned at the start please?

Where is the link to the video about the swatch? I am interested

I love the white gold Pepsi for the blue dial vs the black on stainless.

Great lighting by the way! Does a modern white gold Rolex have rhodium plating?

Great video and love the story.

I think I'm one of those guys, got my first Omega when I was 38 (Planet Ocean) and got my first Rolex at 39 (vintage Datejust). Now hoping to get my first proper Speedy (3861) not too far from my 40th to commemorate the new decade in life.

Great talk regarding the group of people that never get to own a really nice watch until later on in their lives. Gen Z with multiple rolexes is not the average person and so for the average joe, of course we would treasure a nice watch we buy ourselves when the time comes.

One of the best episodes. Very cool to see Dad’s watch and get the story behind it. But have to laugh at the red to pink/invisible bezel. So much for Rolex quality and ‘they’ll last 100 years.’ We all know if this was any mere mortal brand the derision would be they the roof.

Love alternative metals, I’m leaning towards a Black bay in silver

I liked the video you did with that beard. Really well done. Good luck man.

Hope youre getting the one with the meteorite dial.

My next watch is a white gold Pepsi hopefully with the navy dial Love the meteorite too but that navy is 🔥

Only Theo and Harris can make advertisers pay for a sponsor to a video talking about what he's gonna buy with the money earned from it.

Bought my first Rolex (I have a vintage watch collection and a few lower priced modern watches). Traded in a diamond bezel Omega and helped cover the costs of a 2000s 36mm Day- Date in white gold with the oyster bracelet (I don't like the president as much) and pie pan bezel. It's not as attention grabbing as the yellow gold, as was my intention. I love it, wear it every day since I got it.

Nice congrats 🎉

Love my Pepsi! Dying for a Sprite! Great job guys!

In the market for a watch….that’s in the market for a watch. 😂

I own the white gold Pepsi with the blue dial. It’s a great deep blue color and would be a different dial from your dads Pepsi.

I think the white gold GMT with the black dial will be much more appreciated in the future.

"...yup! You got it!" lol

Meteorite GMT is the one I'd love to own at some point.

More details on that fleece, please!

Really good Decision precious metals

White gold Pepsi in Meteorite, Midnight Blue, or original black dial?

Watch collecting is the modern day version of Tulip Mania.

My dad gave me my grandfathers 16610 that my dad bought for him in 2004. My dad said we had pretty much the same reaction. Refusals then interest then refusal again then we tried to say “what are you doing you don’t have one this is ur watch!” 😂😂my dad wore watches but always seikos or sometimes his omega but never to work. I think he didn’t like the fact it cost so much.

I hesitate between that exact one or the same but with the meteorite dial.

I’m really psyched for my G-Wagen’s “D Service” 50,000 miles which happens this THU-FRI. Over 10 hours of work and will be $2,300 according to my Benz Dealer.

Chris love your quote: “Watch should means something”. My god how insanely true is! Sometime I feel like in need to detoxicate myself from the watch community. I have spent so much time following others tastes instead of understanding mine..Guess what happened? I had 16570, 216570, 16710, 216710, 116500, 16600 x2, 126334, 116518LN, 116610LV, 124060…now only one of those it’s with me. Which one? The one i got for my 35th birthday from my AD: 124060. Lesson learnt.

Just got a batman and a rose gold wimbledon 41mm. Big rolex month. Total coincidence. One a new wedding anniversary gift... one a trade for work. Hadnt had a rolex in 20 years

whats with the opened bottle of champagne behind ?

White Gold Rolexes feel better on the wrist as they are better balanced.

i didn't know this watch first came out with a black dial. you guys mentioned that this was not extremely valuable on the secondary market compared to other rolex models. after doing some research, once the blue dial variant was introduced rolex offered to change out the black dial for blue when serviced at no charge. wouldn't this make the black dial models somewhat more sought after?

I had a Baselworld 2014 introduced 116719BLRO and it was initially 20-seconds-per-day fast and they replaced the mainspring and fitted a weaker one as the only way to slow it down: they couldn’t do it with the balance wheel inertial micro-stellar nuts. Make sure you ask before buying or if it’s been checked on a time graph machine , as within Rolex’s Green Seal 5-year-International -2/ +2 seconds-per-day ‘Superlative Chronometer rating released 2015-16. This was the black dial original Pepsi GMT-Master II with the 3186 GMT-Master movement introduced on the 50th Anniversary 116718LN yellow Gold 2 models: one black dial with green ‘GMT-Master II’ dial text; 24Hr GMT hand and date wheel figures: The first Rolex in Baselworld 2005 with Easy-Link tool free clasp micro adjustment -/+ 5mm (one link); Parachrom Blue Balance Spring; Paraflex shock absorbsion system; Cerachrom ceramic bezel and the Supercase. It also has a Maxi-dial introduced in 2003 with the Kermit 16610LV in 2003 for the 50th Anniversary of the Submariner with oversize 12-Hour plot indexes and hands. The 2005 GMT-Master II has a green dial variant but without Green dial text and date wheel figures. The Baselworld 2014 white Gold 116719BLRO (9 suffix = white Gold; 8 suffix = yellow Gold; 5 = Everose Gold) had the 3186 GMT-Movement. It was discontinued at Baselworld 2018 when the stainless steel/ Jubilee-Only 126710BLRO was released, with the new 3185 Chronergy GMT movement. The 2014 WG Pepsi was replaced by a collectible anomoly watch: It was replaced my a Midnight Blue dial (without the Rolex coronet insignia at 6 on the dial, indicating the new 3185 Chronergy movement had been fitted. It remained in production for 1 year until Baselworld 2019: Midnight Blue dial Old Ref No: 116719BLRO No Rolex Coronet at 6 (😢indicating presence of the new 3185 Chronergy GMT movement) because it continued with the old 3186 movement until Baselworld 2019, when it got the new 3185 Chronergy GMT movement and Rolex Coronet on the Midnight Blue dial and a new Ref: 126719BLRO. Platinum is the ultimate white metal and the Platinum Day Date 40 228206 was £9.5K cheaper than the Platinum Daytona 116506 at Rolex UK RRP: £48K to £57.5K. Look at the Platinum DD40 but you need a spare link for summer as it doesn’t have Easylink.

Wait until the holiday season passes. Market is going to continue to soften

Buy it, you deserve it. The only thing I would probably recommend is buy it after first baby is born. You are a great son who makes your parents proud.

This video coincides with my interest in buying the steel Pepsi or Batman GMT. This would be my grail watch.

I wish I could get a white gold Pepsi in the mid 30s. Must be nice to have connections

Don’t overthink it. If you and a parent can bond over something, buy it … don’t hesitate. Parents always want the best for their kids.

Does anyone know what type of fleece Michael is wearing? Michael or Christian let me know!

Didn't realize Woody Allen started a watch channel.

Very nice to have the money to have a white gold version of the GMT, but really why buy it over the steel when it’s 4x the price at retail? It looks exactly the same.

Still miss the old intro music and the boom watch fam

Gotta be honest the bottom banner moving bothers me more than I thought it would

Christian, you had another quick line: “Keep your watches, watches should mean something.” Thank you for saying that. I love my Speedy but I was thinking about trading it in for an Explorer, but every time I heard a comment like yours, I’m able to check myself.

In the market

After my Submariner 14060m and Explorer 1 14270z. I never wanted another Rolex since those were the 2 I always wanted but a late 90s or early 2000s Pepsi GMT would be my 3rd. I don't like the modern GMTS. I prefer the aluminum bezels pre ceramic/super case size. I even prefer the old Oyster bracelets with the solid end links and folded end links are just so comfortable. I feel modern Rolex lost that trademark ™️ look

knit over knit?

So when's the watch collection?

More expensive definitely doesn’t always mean better.

This is a good take on Vintage vs Modern. Christian's Dad has a great (vintage) GMT Pepsi and now the son is going for the same great model but modern, in White Gold. Great move and I love that Christian will swap the GMT's from time to time. No guilt! In fact I think Christian's Dad would feel guilty if this new watch wasn't purchased because Christian may feel like he is upstaging him. Most Dad's, that are comfortable in their own skin and in their life, want their son's to do better than them. And I'm not saying that Christian is doing better than his Dad (Wealth does not equate better). The future story is yet to be told! The story now is that Christian was raised by a great family and Mom & Pop, and he turned out pretty decent (no felonies so far, that I know of, LOL).

Well... I love (loved?) this show, I really like and respect Christian and have been following this channel for years.... that said, can we have 1 episode, 1, without mentioning Rolex? I really feel it is going from an enthusiast oriented channel to a market surfing guide for the rich and, let's be honest, showy side of the hobbiests...

At one point I thought I had it figured out that Rolex was scheming to position the white gold sports models to be exclusively the ones with an oyster bracelet, and move the steel models to the Jubilee bracelet. But then they didn't go that way and now all hell has broken loose. Rolex must have some real internal fighting going on about it all. But they sell everything even when the phuck up. The market is fickle, and Rolex is fickle also.

white gold rolexes will become the most sought after in the future

If I were going to spend 50k on a Rolex (which I wouldn’t), I can’t imagine buying anything other than the GMT meteorite. I don’t understand how it’s close, lol.
