    Apologies if the captions over Vince offended you. We have an intern whose first language is not English just like Vince in the video, and he had trouble understanding, so we wanted to make it easier for viewers who may struggle with English as a second language.

    This channel is so underrated and totally incredible. A well done episode here. One of the best so far. Keep up the great content. You should have triple the subs, and I'm guessing you will sooner than you think.

    Wow never knew there was a single piece version of Jade dial. The two pieces was my all time favourite watch until now I guess. If I am given unrestricted budget for a single watch, it is THE ONE I choose in a blink of an eye.
    Also glad to see out of the ordinary APs and Rolex, the regular models are all over the internet and the influencer community nowdays

    I was wondering wtf was going on with his shirt collar at the start of the video and why it looked so loose and stretched. Then later in the video you see him using a lav mic attached to his collar and stretching it. Everything came full circle and makes sense.

    Your horological knowledge is impressive and admirable, but that shirt you're wearing is so gross, embarrassing, ill-fitting etc. My god man - get some sartorial advice. I know some deep pocket collectors that would NEVER buy from a seller with such a lack of appearance awareness.
