I just bought a 3940R in Hong Kong and it cost me 420K which is around 53K USD and I couldn’t find any cheaper ones. Remember I said Rose gold not yellow gold good day
So many good things about this video: great new t-shirt design, absolutely beautiful watch, and the pinnacle of wealth references: "Scrooge McDuck money". Actually laughed at that one. Great video Christian and team.
Hey Christian. Must ask a question for some insight. Just like you, I love Rolex (specifically the Datejust). Owning a Datejust myself as my grail, would you ever trade your first Datejust to aid in the cost for a different style DJ (or in your case because you like the DD) or a DD? Or is the sentimental value of "The first" mean too much to you? My issue is in 2016 I bought my grail, 116234 silver dial jubilee. All my life I knew I wanted the current reference to that version with a champagne dial (similar to my dad's DJ) but the closest theh had was silver dial. Maybe a year to 6 months before me making the purchase, my interest started to lean towards the TT 116233 with champagne dial because it just seems like the ultimate DJ to me but I liked both references equally and the 116234 cost less so I went with it (would have had to wait a bit more for the TT). I like both equally and the 116234 goes with my normal wear better (WG wedding band, Silver wrist bracelet on right arm, silver neck chain) but the 116233 screams top of the top to me. What do you think?
Tim Schubardt I have no problem at all with the fact that it's an annual (in fact, I quite like it's relative affordability). But that date window at six kills me!
Love the video... I've noticed in the last couple like this that you have been looking off camera a lot... I'm guessing it's because you're connecting with whoever is behind the camera but I think its a bit distracting in the video. I hope you don't take this as being a "hater" I just thought a bit of constructive criticism might help. Thanks for the great videos and keep up the good work.
I might trade all of my watches for that Patek. Probably not though I'd lose out on gold lol. That's def nicer than any watch I have but I have at least 10 gold watches. Hmmm, still might trade but there is some vintage watches I'd miss for sure.
I am surprised that watch only costs $35000. I would think a Patek perpetual calendar would be at a much higher price considering what their watches typically go for at auction.
Stewart Novinger 2 thing kind of “hurt” this ref unfortunately: loooooong production (they made a lot of ‘em, relatively speaking) and it’s “small”, according to some, at 36mm. This watch represents incredible value in today’s market and will most certainly increase in value.
2014 Boxter in 2025 - $7000 1986 Patek Phillipe in 2025 - $40 000 or (much) more. Basically if you buy the Patek now, in 5 years you will get the same Porsche for free.
A 2014 Boxster will NOT be worth 7k in 2025. Do you know anything about the used Boxster market? A 2007 Boxster goes for around 15-20k used, not 7k. It doesn't matter which is worth more. He can spend his money on what he wants, and I think that a boxster is more enjoyable than this PP, even though the PP is gorgeous.
imgur.com/a/Z04bm imgur.com/a/Jj8MG There is a world outside the USA. Nobody here is going to pay $20 000 for a 15-year old car. Even a 2005 S-Class is around $3000
Haha.....a car's value comes every time I get in my car. I have a Vacheron Constantine, which I consider fairly equivalent to the patek philippe in terms of quality (which i bought at less than half the price). Let me tell you, my VC does not give me anywhere close to the day to day pleasure that my porsche gives me. It maybe worth more in 30 years, but who gives a fuck? Dollars means less to me than joy of life. That's why I'm selling my VC (at a profit) and never buying another watch for more than $1000 ever again. My porsche may stay or may go (I'm retiring and buying a place by the ocean) but as a buy, it is a great car, especially driving in the canyons, at 95 to 105 mph with the top down and no cops in sight.

“Assistant”? Lol

Superb taste Christian, historically important watch from a historically important watch company.
This watch is amazing! I do love my 5327, though ;)

Glicine Airman, the first GMT. The watch of the vietnam pilots had a 24 hr dial.
Great vid. You might want to look for the first series of a PP 3940. It’s really perfect
Great review! Does the Cyclops shirt have the T&H logo on back, centered? If not, it should! Would be siiiiiiick.
Good look Christian with all the new merch!
What's the warranty on these perp calendar watches? Seriously--For how long do these things keep running before they need to be fixed or overhauled?
I know it sounds weird, but I personally prefer the 5035, altough its only an anual calender.:)
Tim Schubardt I have no problem at all with the fact that it's an annual (in fact, I quite like it's relative affordability). But that date window at six kills me!
Theo and Harris What is wrong with the date window?
It’s a shame that I’ve only come across this watch in 2022 and unfortunately it’s no where near $35k anymore.
An absolute masterpiece though and still worth almost every penny.
Is this video a precursor to that Instagram story a while ago about that 30,000 dollar plus pay pal transfer
Hey what size tee are you wearing in this?

More rantnh and less other stuff.🙂
What type of dial does the Zodiac watch have what
The cyclops is one of the reasons I am not a Rolex fan. :(
Dont you knooooooooowwww its family day? In Toronto....oh wait a minute yrrr in the Us of Jersy
Correction U.S of Jersey
But it doesn't have a seconds hand.
this oldly looks like TGV new AP
i'd say the AP looks better honestly
It's the same
I was really hoping he would say 35 dollar watch worth every penny but nooo he just had to throw the “k” at the end of it. Should have known better
Open nine T-Shirt! :)

glycine airman...
First. :P
Or you can buy a car.
hahahhaahh Thanks so much for watching, man!!
1986 Patek Phillipe or a 2014 porsche boxster.....I'd know what I'd buy.....oh yeah I already did.
2014 Boxter in 2025 - $7000
1986 Patek Phillipe in 2025 - $40 000 or (much) more.
Basically if you buy the Patek now, in 5 years you will get the same Porsche for free.

Georgi ivanov Doubt it. No fucking Boxster owner is going to spell it "Boxter." I don't know why you seem incapable of spelling it correctly.

I’m not a fan of that Patek dial at all, to me the indices are completely unbalanced top to bottom
Am I the only one who doesn't like it? Way overcomplicated ..too busy...not balanced dial. Idk.
IT IS AN UGLY WATCH, NO BIG DEAL AT ALL VERY HIGH PRICE FOR ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
