This is absolutely correct. Watch Timepiece Gentleman, Roman Sharf, etc. for proof. These guys are just horse trading with one another. Selling watches back and forth to each other at a constant markup that isn’t backed by significant retail demand (outside of maybe Rolex). At some point, they’ll be left holding the bag.

@@1986capy well that is the purpose, look at me look at me I can afford to pay 200k or more for a watch with a plastic strap.

In many ways, the tulip mania was more of a hitherto unknown socio-economic phenomenon than a significant economic crisis. so let RM rise or fall, rich will always have their toys and art.

These sorts of watches don't cost even remotely that much to make. You are paying for the label. PM likely gets these watches at a fraction of the MSRP so he can essentially advertise the brand. So you dummies will then go and buy the cheaper models in the lineup which is where they make most of the money. The manufacturers don't care because it is all profit anyway, even with a massive discount. These high end flagship limited edition models are out out there to create a buzz around the brand as being special so that the regular watches will be bought by ordinary people as "investments". It is all hype and marketing, with the aim of parting suckers from their money. Most of the high end jewelry world is like that.
When Michael bought that shirt do you think he left his house that morning thinking.... I need something with colorful dots on the top which turn into colorful butterflies on the bottom.
I don't get how such watch veterans like Vadeem and Michael sometimes don't understand what's going on in the market or they don't know the real stories behind very high-demand watches like the Jumbo. I am not bragging but I think almost every collector knows that it is the closest model/design to the first-ever AP royal oak and the production is so slow that's why their prices are sky-rocketing. Or for example, they don't consider Vacheron Constantin as a holy trinity and they don't give it the same respect as Patek or AP, most people know that the holy trinity of Sports Watches is the Nautilus, Royal Oak, and the Overseas with their signature deep blue dial (previously the 222). I guess the market in the USA unlike Europe is really freaking insane.
@@gossipopithecus same in Naples. Then in the same place you can wear something more expensive but without social media hype and nobody will look at you twice
Michael is the best luxury youtuber. He actually knows all about the things he shows and he can actually afford all the things he shows. 95% of all other youtubers are renting and leasing cars and faking everything else.
For those of you that wonder what the weight of the Richard Mille watch made for Rafael Nadal is, it's 30 grams (one ounce). Actually the lightest tourbillon ever made
that Vacheron is BEAUTIFUL. I only wish the case design was slightly more iconic, not more beautiful, but more iconic so it could truly get the recognition it deserves in “the big 3”.
Takes watch out of the box gently with gloved hand ... Michael grabs it and puts all of his oils over it ... hysterical. Time happens no matter what. We humans are funny - the things we do to look better, wealthy, desirable, sophisticated. Beautiful creations I do acknowledge.
I have so many watches sitting in drawers... never wear them. Most of them are quartz and all of them need new batteries... what a pain. I cherish my automatics but I feel all those quartz watches were a huge waste of money.
@@langraman8756 trust a shopkeeper to answer a question with a question. My watches are uninsured and have never been serviced. What did your phone cost shopkeeper

You’ve raised a good point about the risk of wearing Rolex watches. I would imagine that most criminals would instantly recognize a Rolex and thus puts the wearer at risk. If I could afford to pay a silly amount of money for a high cost watch, I’d want to be able to wear it without drawing attention to myself.
The biggeat ripoff in the world RM watches.2.3 mil for that piece of shit when there are watches out there wich are actual work of art for less than 5% of that price.But yeah.....6ix9ine has to have a watch made for him too.
If a Rolex has a blue dial it means it's a precious metal that's how you tell the Pepsi apart stainless steel will have a black dial if it's a precious metal watch it'll have a blue dial that's how Rolex does it
Have they never made a steel with a blue dial? Now you'll have given them the idea to do it and everyone will go absolutely crazy for it and pay 500% over retail lolololol

I don't get how such watch veterans like Vadeem and Michael sometimes don't understand what's going on in the market or they don't know the real stories behind very high-demand watches like the Jumbo. I am not bragging but I think almost every collector knows that it is the closest model/design to the first-ever AP royal oak and the production is so slow that's why their prices are sky-rocketing. Or for example, they don't consider Vacheron Constantin as a holy trinity and they don't give it the same respect as Patek or AP, most people know that the holy trinity of Sports Watches is the Nautilus, Royal Oak, and the Overseas with their signature deep blue dial (previously the 222). I guess the market in the USA unlike Europe is really freaking insane.
totally different markets US and Europe . they don't even respect a lange in US
I really like Vadeem, Great guy! calm and knowledgeable about his stuff!
Love the work Michael and Adam!
"This is not my new watch, I've had this one for about three weeks". Spoken like a true watch addict :)
Me thinking that the Pepsi white gold Rolex GMT isn’t low key proves what socioeconomic group I’m in haha
in London, if some people see you wear Rolex, they will attack you and rob you.
@@gossipopithecus yeah I’ve seen that with Paul Thorpe’s channel. Crazy
@@gossipopithecus same in Naples. Then in the same place you can wear something more expensive but without social media hype and nobody will look at you twice
Michael is the best luxury youtuber. He actually knows all about the things he shows and he can actually afford all the things he shows. 95% of all other youtubers are renting and leasing cars and faking everything else.
For those of you that wonder what the weight of the Richard Mille watch made for Rafael Nadal is, it's 30 grams (one ounce). Actually the lightest tourbillon ever made
exactly , but you have to love the special dial of The Richard Mille watches and it's very difficult to see .... the hour !!!
that Vacheron is BEAUTIFUL. I only wish the case design was slightly more iconic, not more beautiful, but more iconic so it could truly get the recognition it deserves in “the big 3”.
I've never been a fan of Richard Mille, but I have to admit that is one impressive timepiece.
Respect to Michael, he knows his watch and also questions the trade prices on them.
"The watch is missing from the watch "😂😂😂
1:04 a rainbow Daytona would’ve looked rlly rlly nice with the shirt Micheal was wearing lol
A Rainbow Gaytona.
The more I see Michael's strap on the Nautilus, the more I like it. Such a great combo.
ProducerMichael is a walking talking Studio 54🙌 Respect ✊🏼
When people start paying 2mil for a plastic watch, you know people aren't being taxed enough.
Micheal is wearing my very favorite watch of all time every single detail of it
Remember guys, these are 1% of watches in the world. 99% will not go up in value like this, and is usually more worth its money anyway.
True that. But more like 0.0001%.
There are not that many people who can and want to drop 100k+ USD for watches.
@@Spazik86 He isn't stating the percentage of people that can buy them, he is stating the percentage of watches that "go up in value".
Glad we're back to watches
Takes watch out of the box gently with gloved hand ... Michael grabs it and puts all of his oils over it ... hysterical. Time happens no matter what. We humans are funny - the things we do to look better, wealthy, desirable, sophisticated. Beautiful creations I do acknowledge.
I have so many watches sitting in drawers... never wear them. Most of them are quartz and all of them need new batteries... what a pain.
I cherish my automatics but I feel all those quartz watches were a huge waste of money.
@@langraman8756 no one cares
@@langraman8756 you cared so little you took the time to type a comment.
Get back to practicing penalties
@@langraman8756 how much did your phone cost
@@langraman8756 trust a shopkeeper to answer a question with a question.
My watches are uninsured and have never been serviced.
What did your phone cost shopkeeper
That vacheron overseas with the blue dial, that makes me all warm and fuzzy.
Why wear gloves to hand it to someone to touch with bare, oily, hands? Is it, like, wearing a face mask when another isn't? It protects the watch from covid?
It helps the customer feel superior
It helps to clean the watches
This is the dude I would purchase a watch off out of all the people you visit. Love how he has the patek, ap and vacheron next to each other. Thanks guys
You can get a pretty nice house for that kind of money, haha.
but you dont know what time it is :D this its cost extra 2milions :D
This RM goes perfectly with the poster or painting of the two dogs in the background...
You can tell Michael thinks most of these watches are a bubble by his reaction to the prices.
Love this guy. Feels serious and knowledgeable.
Get out of town. I would go and buy the -> Jacob oil pump watch. It is an work of art.
Who needs an "oil pump" watch? And I've never, ever, not know how, seen a watch I'd consider a "work of art." Ostentation, yes.
The AP JUMBO extra thin is 🔥🔥🔥 so elegant
Only Michael, a watch collector for 20+ years still asks “how does this open?” 😂
what are these things here, diamonds?
I feel lilke im going to be a watch expert after watching all those PM video's! I know so much about watches now just by watching those video's and i don't even own a watch 😂
Richard Mille is one of the most overpriced watch brands ever! RM watches are no doubt beautiful and great in their own class/category but they're too much overpriced, 5k to 20k dollars price range would've been justifiable.
Past 5 k is goofy
Welcome to the glorious world of marketing
They want to put their product in that tier, so if you see someone wearing an RM you can definitely see a successful/powerful person.
你买不起而已
You speaking like a broke soul.
Can't get enough of this channel 👍
Vadim is an awesome guy to do business with.
Have you done bussiness with him?
@@mystickal6342 yes
2 million for a watch with a cloth strap that looks like it comes out of a gumball machine.
"F.P.Journe is up and coming, right..."
- Michael
This seller has such a nice gentle manner about him. Would be a lovely experience to have the money and make a purchase from him.
you know how dogs are matched to their owners, Diesel dog is so matched to Adam, but Humphry id 100% the dog for Michael I cant exactly explain why but the small furry thing i so his dog hahaha.
4:22 adams reaction is PRICELESS!!!
I like how the watch guy is wearing gloves and tries to keep the watches clean. And Michael instantly grabs the watches bare hands
17:13 Stainless steel for 95 thousand usd....im dead😵
I don't have anything smart to say but I'm here early so tossing my name in the hat
This was fantastic. I could watch this all day long - sadly. Of all the watches shown, I like the white gold Rolex Pepsi best of all; but I like the Batman 100 times more. Great video, guys. More watches, more mansions! 👍👍👍
The prices are arbitrary - might as well say it cost a billion - it means nothing.
Another vacuous video featuring a cartoonish old man and his servant Adam
Producer mike is a cool rich uncle. Always inviting the fam over for extravagant get togethers. lol
GOD BLESS YOU MICHAEL, ADAM AND VADIM. I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU AND VERY HAPPY FOR YOU. I HOPE ALL OF YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE MY FRIENDS. I TRULY AND SINCERELY CANNOT THANK GOD ENOUGH. 😊
OMG WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING lol

I TRULY AND SINCERELY CANNOT THANK GOD ENOUGH. I AM INDESCRIBABLY GRATEFUL AND THANKFUL AND I WILL ABSOLUTELY BREAK DOWN AND CRY WHEN BLESSINGS AND DREAMS COME TRUE. 🙏
@@petersampson5202 ok ok but please remain calm lol
You’ve raised a good point about the risk of wearing Rolex watches. I would imagine that most criminals would instantly recognize a Rolex and thus puts the wearer at risk. If I could afford to pay a silly amount of money for a high cost watch, I’d want to be able to wear it without drawing attention to myself.
The biggeat ripoff in the world RM watches.2.3 mil for that piece of shit when there are watches out there wich are actual work of art for less than 5% of that price.But yeah.....6ix9ine has to have a watch made for him too.
love the second black gold watch daamn sooo nice
As always the best content out here, and the selection and service on time pieces is spectacular! Thank you!
Boys and their toys! The watches are all pretty, but the puppy is a blessing. 🐶♥️
RM is not a watch anymore, its the admission to a club that happens to tell the time.
But "to everything it's time under the heavens," right? The time is now to sell that GD watch.
Michael, please do a video with Manny Khoshbin
If a Rolex has a blue dial it means it's a precious metal that's how you tell the Pepsi apart stainless steel will have a black dial if it's a precious metal watch it'll have a blue dial that's how Rolex does it
Have they never made a steel with a blue dial?
Now you'll have given them the idea to do it and everyone will go absolutely crazy for it and pay 500% over retail lolololol
@@visionist7 that is their tell right now I don't know if many years ago they have done it but you could also be fooled in the event somebody switches their stainless steel dial to Blue I mean blue is pretty awesome but right now that is their tell blue on on the dial is precious metal
Yossi:I will NOT SELL this watch!!
RM watch at 15:01 is only $ 480k and its rose gold diamond
While that $ 2.3 million watch is just bland looking. Yes i know its a tourbilon, but its still bland
Lol that ap is 280k and retailed 20k lol.
I would like to see Michael and Adam goes shopping!!!
Micheals salty he blinged out so many of his watches with diamonds and ruined there value 😂
His entire collection is factory set... you sound so dumb.
@@johnwall7190 lol take a look at his collection videos dum dum
Out of all the dealers you presented on your channel Michael this gent Vadim sounds like a star and very knowledgeable 👍🏻👍🏻
