Congratulations on your new Submariner, your video is great and honestly one of the best because you are very transparent and express the frustrations and realities of all of us that are on a waitlist. My only recommendation if you want to expand your channel would be to change your background, just my humble opinion.
Salut Razvan. In primul rand vreau sa te felicit si sa.ti zic sa.l porti sanatos. Sunt in asentimentul tau 100%. Pacat ca asa firma renumita sa.si trateze clientii in asa hal. Am auzit ca peste tot asa e. Doar pt ca cererea e imensa si au devenit super nesimtiti pe chestia asta. Tocmai pt chestia asta,eu, daca aveam banii sa.mi iau un ceas de genul as fi luat un Grand Seiko sau un Omega, un Czapek etc, intelegi ideea. Inca o data, n.am nimic impotriva ceasurilor Rolex, dar cum te trateaza AD.urile e chiar mizerabil. Vb ta, munceasc f mult pt banii astia si experienta de cumparare cu ad.ul omoara tot farmecul si entuziasmul. Te salut, cu respect.
Salut Sorin, mersi mult pt mesaj 🙏 Sper ca nu ai adormit urmãrind video-ul. E un cerc vicios si Rolex e de vinã partial, si dealerii dupã aia. In Praga, la Rolex imi râdea tipul in fata, gen .. "te pun pe lista" dar nu spera sa ne auzim. Acuma port ceasul si e fain, dar nu a meritat tot prin ce am trecut, si 10k$. Grand Seiko sunt f faine dar pierd imediat in valoare.
Congratulations and have fun with the Watch. I‘ve had similar experiences with Bucherer and Wempe in Berlin for the GMT II Batman or Rootbeer. I didn‘t care to mich about which one. One Salesperson made several appointements with me and still didn‘t sell me the watch. I was waiting 4 years and lost interest completely as prices did rise many times. I rather spent my money on many fragrances and on cars now
Thank you, my friend 🙏 Yeah, better get some nice fragrances for the collection and enjoy life. For me was easy to wait, I even forgot about it. A Black Bay GMT will be absolutely fine and some money left :) Take care
Congrats on the watch, may you enjoy it for many years. I've spent a long time researching watches, looking at reviews, trying out in person etc -- but I could never form a connection with them. Thankfully soon after I discovered the world of fragrances and haven't looked back
That sales agent didn’t give you any service because he did not earn commission from your watch. They are just acting as an errand boy from the boutique.
Good point, that is very likely. One another hand I was an interested client so in the future he could get a commision "out of me". Very shady behaviour, to be honest .. thanks for watching.
@@razvanyke I think they know that, once you get your dream watch, you’re unlikely to return for awhile. Plus, hate to say, but the GMTs are impossible to get, which is why they’d roll their eyes. If you said a Datejust, they might be nicer to you haha
I'm glad my AD guarantees a maximum wait of 1 year, you have to make a deposit but it arrived within a year every time in my experience, which is great!
@@razvanyke yeah it's truly the best, because you will get a receipt with the name of the watch and it's referencenumber. So it's basically a guaranteed purchase!
@jamesmoninger1982 thank you so much! Yeah, I agree .. slowly the Pepsi becomes tiring to be mentioned. I like Batman too. If we take them both out, I am left with no next candidate 😃
@@razvanyke Thanks for your reply! I look forward to watching your other content. Glad you got the SUB, but I completely agree with your evaluation of the experience. I would not be willing to audition with an AD, building a phony friendship, being mocked, buying other pieces I didn't like or want, praying the entire time that they would choose ME to spend $20,000 for a stainless steel GMT Pepsi.
Mid 90’s - 2000 German bought Rolex to the highest price 16520 market USD$9000 msrp USD$4277 . Today Market getting more globalised & colourless. Who can offer the same purchase date as the card warranty day unless AD at chrono 24 ?????? The one offering MSRP AD is the one more honest to Rolex factory. Some AD selling market price at Chrono 24. The shop just for them to get stock from Rolex but never sell watch there. Simple question, any single one person can get a 126529LN with MSRP from any AD or boutique ?????? 😂😂
Sorry to hear about your experience. But is Rolex ADs and Rolex enthusiasts interested in having a normal hard working east European dude wearing their watches? I have noticed snobbery that is excluding normal people and I believe that the majority of Rolex enthusiasts wants to feel special and exclusive.
Hello Harry, you know what .. I thought about it too, but after all the Boutique who sold me the watch were nice and very friendly, only the Branch of the AD was very weird and neutral. Thank you for the feedback !

How safe is it to wear a Rolex and walk around in Germany? Is it as bad as UK and large cities in the U.S.? Your bad experience with buying the Rolex sounds similar to bad experiences other people are having across the luxury merchandise industry, from cars to clothes. These brands have become too arrogant and elitist.
@@razvanyke pot sa spun cu absoluta siguranta ca poti sa porti in Bucuresti cel putin ce ceas doresti ziua in amiaza mare fara absolut nici o problema. Cel putin in zonele bune gen Dorobanti, Baneasa sau zona de Nord oamenii poarta la vedere Richard Mille, Patek.uri etc foarte multi le poarta in special ca sa.si arate starea de bogatie.

Congrats my friend, very nice timepiece but be careful from muggers cuz they rip watches of people's wrists in some European cities.
Thank you my friend, I am aware of that. Will take care, of course 🙏 Stay safe!
Currently waiting on a Datejust and skydweller.
Nice watch man 👍🏻
Hello my friend, good luck with the patience 💯 I hope you get them soon!
You've won in life in so many ways 🙏💯🍺🍺😉🎉
@@DavidClarke-xf1rd thank you, my friend 🙏 I do count my blessings every day. Stay safe!
@@razvanykesame same but different 😂
Lovely watch mate, last time I was in Cologne was ten years ago in 2014, at an event in Lanxess Arena, great city.
Hello my friend, thank you! Maybe its time to come again :) Köln is great yes

Very nicely done, but why does EVERY Rolex video have to mention the Rolex Pepsi? I am so-o-o sick of hearing about it.

Hey, I would say that a healthy dose of caution is required everywhere. Germany is as risky as the other countries mentioned, I believe.
No UK is worse. Germany is fine in most places.
I’m glad I live in the US. I’m always “packing” and attempting to rip my sub off my wrist is a horrible idea.

Stop wining, it’s just the purchase of an unnecessary luxury item nobody needs. 🙋🏻♂️
I agree, it is a luxury item but there is not much luxury in the experience though. Thanks for watching
