Now we know the zenith defy are shock resistant...
We also know that the table can take a bit of beating as well;)
JCB was quite... enthusiastic. He must have smacked his watch into the table a thousand times.
He is head of testing
@@johnnewman3316 absolutely, if a watch can survive being worn in an interview by JCB is it is certified as shock-resistant.
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes…absolutely.
hahahahah
Biver has had all the coke today.
I think it's called adult-ADHD.
Jean-Claude Biver must love karate
Check his Judo Chop 😂
He is killing that watch on the table there!
One thing is for sure, we know the watch can take a beating :)
Hire a sound tech to bleep out the yes yes yes yes yes
i just bought a zenith because of this man,what a legent!
I listen for JCB but I cringe every year over Wei’s constant “yes, yes”
Biver, you REALLY are fucking up Zenith. I mean really. Try to remember how you handled Blancpain, Zenith is not Hublot.
What a great interview. Gems of stories! What a character, Mr. Biver!
"future of tradition" - J has to be the best spin doctor salesman in so called luxury watch industry
JCB has amazing energy...very refreshing to see.
I would love to see him retire at SEIKO! I wonder what he could do for that brand...his final challenge; make Grand Seiko/Credor a much larger factor in luxury watch market!
JCB, stop screwing up Zenith by placing it below Hublot...and giving them Hublot/Tag like designs with gaudy rapper marketing (ala swizz beats).
Does Mr. Wei Koh not know his constant "yes" is not only annoying, it is anti-empathetic. I do not doubt his love for watches and certainly he has a lot of money, but a good interviewer or host, he is not. Please make him not ever appear again on the screen, and then this will be good content.
Biver sure has a lot of energy and enthusiasm! Good! Now, bring down the prices.
You cannot outshine JCB. No one can.
JCB is fidgeting with his watch way too much!!! Lol
Loved the video though. Thank you.
Wei--Nice interview, but please: If you'd turn off that damn floor lamp that's lighting up nothing except the viewer's eyes, it wouldn't be a chore to watch.
Wei Koch you are one cool guy. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!
2018 and still a pleasure to watch an interview of JCB. This man is and will always be legend in the watch industry.
Love Mr. Jean-Claude Biver. What a wonderful person!
A great man and an inspiration! When I bought the first Big Bang RG/Fusion and emailed Mr.Biver he replied and we shared our passion for watches. I wish him a long life as the horological world needs him.
Jean-Claude is obviously not afraid of dinks and hairlines...
I would like to smoke what ever JC Biver smoke before he sat down for this interview.
It's always great to see and hear you guys talk about watches! Thank you!
Jean-Claude Biver (JCB) Is also the name of George Bamford's fathers business.
JCB Tractors.
JCB must've taken that Tag off at least 57 times, adjusted the strap and put it back on :))))
He’s just checking that it’s still working after all the abuse he’s given it during the interview.
That watch needs more than just viper and cosc cert after banging it thousand times.
That’s a shock resistant Watch he’s wearing, huh? What was the case material and finish on the first Watch? And his hands are YUGE!
lol
In 5.38 Mr. Biver is cleaning the splinters off the table after all ther beating. Super intense. Super clear in his ideas. Would love to see the his watch in detail.
JCB really smacked that bad boy onto the table.. that zenith looks strong
Biver doesn't seem to understand, that Zenith's use of high beat movement, doesn't transform the watch it into a hammer.
Incredible thoughts
Always entertained by Mr. Biver ❤️
Is Biver knocking his watch on purpose to suggest the toughness of it? Wonder if it needs a service now after the interview.
Great interview, but man I’ve count at least 30 kicks on a watch. That hurts dude
Wow what passion
that watch gets the beating test right there......:)
I wish i can also YES my way to a Zenith Very Limited 10 pieces Watch! Way to go W.K. 👍😆
The man himself!
I cant wait to get my hands on a defy in a few years when the technology is affordable (affordable as in not 10.000)
Zenith, hublot, blancpain , tag heuer, AP omega.... Damn!
A recognizable case and new materials... JCB, you've already done that at Hublot.
watches at these prices should be -0/+2 seconds/day as standard... The Future of a watch brand is NOT the message, the future is the DESIGN... if people like it, they will buy it! Rolex - Patek - Richard Mille... its the watch, not the nonsense marketing and celebrity endorsements.
Say what you will about JCB, but the man is very passionate about watches.
JCB is annoying AF.
Observatories (such as Kew, Neuchâtel, and Besançon) by definition (since their existence started more than 300 years ago) more or less only accepted complete watches for chronometer (precision) competitions. Was surprised that METAS and/or Fleuritest was not at least mentioned once. Because they are complete-watch-only certification standards as well. One repeating 'issue' with JCB, is, that he believes that only the brands he leads are innovative in the first place.
JCB, he would succeed if he was in other industry. That energy and passion are intrinsic. Respect. Thank you for great interview. From this video I learnt something about life from JCB.
This is the personality and enthusiasm that should have been injected into more Baselworld coverage. Wei Koh's videos at the Fair have surprised me as being disarmingly watchable.
I love JCB, such a huge personality which manages to dwarf Wei's; not a mean feat!
Being able to take a wrist shot with Jean Claude Biver with the same ultra exclusive watch at Baselworld? Awesome! And interesting insight behind the Bamford move away from Rolex customizing
what a lovely enthusiastic man ..... a true inspiration no matter what you do in life !!!
such a great enthusiastic Energetic Person, gotta love him and show him respect for what he has done to the watchworld
Love me a bit of JCB
Thanks @Revolution and @Wei Koh for this interview. Amazing 👍🏻
I like this kind of footage and the speed of it.
I wasn't to be this passionate when I am his age. Legendary
Did he mention Besancon at all?
take it easy with those karate chops, the watch looks like a tank but it still makes me nervous lol
Wei Kon and JCB in one room. I love these videos!
What an amazing interview, his passion is infectious.
Always a pleasure to see Mr Biver!
JCB is the icon of our time. So passionate
What a rockstar Mr. Biver!
What a great guy with so much energy for his age!👍👍
Great interview!
You two together need a TV show.
Wei Koh must really like the sound of his own voice.
Farhan yeah I’m no fan of him. Also why does he wear two watches. Why not three
I am sure Jean-Claude Biver is on drugs. He scared the shit out of Wei Koh during this interview.
Great interview
Yeah
Awesome talk !
amazing
he is italian lol
cocaine is a helluva drug
Fantastic both of you are inspirational !
These people are dinosaurs, they will be extinct soon. There is no space for mechanical watches in 2030 (closer to us than 2005 was). Only few will buy them, and those who will buy them will realise there is only one watchmaker worth owning, A. Lange & Sohne with production of less than 6,000 pcs per year. The rest are history.
