  • In this episode join me buying my first Rolex watch! It's been a goal of mine for the past two years to own a Rolex and after seeing a custom Rolex Submariner in my brand colours at Essential Watches, I just couldn't say no.
    If you're looking for a used luxury watch, make sure to give Seth at Essential Watches a call:

    There's so many comments here to reply to, but I just wanted to say thank you for all the support! I know a modified Rolex isn't to everyone's liking, but I've modified every single car I've owned so why wouldn't I make sure my first Rolex was modified too?! Love it or hate it, I appreciate the support and I'm so excited to grow this channel and bring you more fire content in 2021!! Thank you, thank you, thank you :)

That shits going to scratch and break like crazy.” Turns out it’s not typical ceramic like you would think of. It’s an ultra high-tech form of ceramic made from scratch by Rolex and it’s virtually indestructible unless you like take a hammer to it and purposefully try to destroy it. Otherwise it is unequivocally unmatched in its strength and robustness. I have a few myself and the ceramic bezel is the only part of the watch, along with the crystal, that doesn’t have a scratch on it.

      I like the look of the dark side of the moon watch because it’s so understated. In Germany there is a very strong social envy so it’s nice to not attract more attention than you need to. People don’t think too well of you if you drive a fancy car or wear a flashy watch.

    Congrats mate on your first Rolex. I am a big watch enthusiast and have a small collection myself. However, I feel like you should have bought the factory piece, especially for your first Rolex. The attention to detail, the polishing, the factory dial with 18k applied white gold markers and hands, trust me it’s a work of art by Rolex. However, the after market dial/bracelet is beautiful but just not the same!

      I bet that's for security and/or insurance purposes or something like that. Could also be some cray tax loophole thing (we're talking about Beverly Hills/LA/California after all), where it's cheaper to have a very profitable shop like this inside a building without direct access to a street.
