    It is a cognitive error thinking one cannot dislike Rolex because when one doesn't one does not know anything about watches. One could say the same about Omega...even as this does not go well with many Rolex fans. Similar reasoning we find with brands like Apple, Martin and Mercedes. This argument is getting old. I do appreciate the brand and respect it because it 100% definitely deserves respect...however respect is something else than the subjective liking of something. Rolex in general does not do much for me... I simply do not like them all that much. It is called personal taste. Yes of course there will be several Rolexes I like (all black Daytona is really nice or that gorgeous pre-Daytona at 22:15!)...but in general they do nothing for me. Why? For example because for the amount one has to put down for a Rolex, the alternatives are mind blowing. Also the argument that no watch brand would be where they are now can be reversed to Rolex. Without Omega, Longines or Vacheron...Rolex would not be where they are today either...it is what it is. I do always love Jasper's knowledge as it is eloquent and very informative, spot on and entertaining. There is just one blindspot...the blind love for Rolex. To repeat the same statement about not being able to dislike Rolex is not going to make it a truth. Great video nevertheless, I love hearing his passion for watches...whether he talks Rolex or not.

    Of course you can , Rolex is overrated , no one should pay 6000 -30`000 Dollars Plus for a watch and then wait for 10 to 20 Years . These Brands are so spoiled by Idiotic Customers from all over the World , this is why they are behaving like this , i mean they produced "cheap" Rolex watches as a mass Product for the Military a 100 years ago , and look what it is now , Rich mens status symbol , what is so special on a Rolex tell me except the Name , some People think it's an Investment like you buy a House , do you know how many rolex are on the secondary market for sale ? the asking prices are absolutely ridiculous . Even the half "Broken" run down vintage watches from Rolex have a high price , for what ? Because people see a not existing value in them , it's a fuckin hype . Rolex , Patek Philippe , Vacheron etc. you can throw them away as a Brand , i wouldn't care . We are Normal Ordinary People not Millionaires , are you People even interested in watches ? makes me think .....
