I have a theory he doesn't actually own any watches he just wears the ones that cycle in and out of pride and pinion or he would've shown us. That or he has so REALLY valuable stuff and doesn't wanna get robbed
1:44 as a Dutcie, I will explain this: In Dutch we have the proverb 'nattevingerwerk zijn (or) met de natte vinger doen' of wich the first one litteraly translates to 'being wet finger work' It means, to do something rushed withouth the right methods or tools. so you learned something today.
The "wet finger in the air" is a trick to find out where the wind is blowing from. You wet your finger, stick it in the air and guestimate the direction of the wind based on where on the finger it gets cold first. It's an old sailor trick and a perfectly good analogy for what Nico was trying to convey. It's used in Norway as an analogy for an educated guess. Go get'em Nico!
Nico, I fell down one hell of a rabbit hole....I started watching clips on treadmills and ended up binge watching you - absolute classic videos, informative and witty.... keep it up 👍🏻
>Doesn't flex >Wear RM Swap all the RMs for A. Lange, JLC and VC, and he might have the best-taste collection to have ever been featured on this channel.
I love the casio love. Growing up, my dad always wore that casio. When his friends would give him a hard time for not having a nice watch he'd always respond with "it works, it always works. When the battery dies I get a new one and it works." Vindicated
This episode was more insane than your review of the Johnny Depp collection. I laughed so hard while truly enjoying every minute off this episode and the lord of the cocks slip was too perfect, lol. So many awesome watches but the hublot at the end, hahaha...your staff know you so well! Great episode, made my day.
That's because it is. They pay celebrities millions to wear the things which is what the spoilt rich kid consumer is paying for when they pay over 100k for one. It belongs in a completely seperate band that is more about showing off wealth rather providing a high level of quality.
@@Weakeyedominant first of all, it is high quality. second, people wear pateks n rolexes to show off too. third, just say that richard mille is overhyped lol
I heard Ed say in an an interview that it was John Mayer that ruined his life by introducing him to collecting watches. I also heard him say that sometimes he wears a fake version of a watch that he has while keeping the real one safe somewhere else.
I’m 21 years old and I’m trying to find a profession where I can own an amazing watch collection. I’ve recently fallen into the world of watches when I stopped by the Rolex store to just check them out and ended up leaving with a ton of fascinating information about the history of watches and the absolute master craftsmanship that goes into these works of art. Love these videos!
Race car driver. They'll give them to you. With the boom in mechanical watch collecting, there is a shortage of watchmakers that can service these things. Money to be made there plus you can buy busted up watches for far less money and restore them.
Ed Sheeran is one of those guys that wears G-Shocks while he's struggling to make it, then upgrades to mechanical G-Shocks (Richard Mille) when he makes it big
reaction vids are cool, but it would be nice to see some variety of content on the channel. You could show your watch collection, talk about your favorite rolexes or how to purchase a rolex (e.g., you usually can't just walk in a buy one), why you hate hueblot, how to spot a fake rolex, or other varied content.
"you ball bag" -- Literally couldn't breath how funny that was. LMFAO "looks like it's come from a vending machine" -- Continues laughing.... aww man lol
I'm not a watch guy even though I have one particular one I am very proud of. BUT I do enjoy your videos for the entertainment and that you are into something on a level of commitment that I am in my field. And also you're absolutely hilarious. So thank you for the entertainment. BUT I have one question. What's the deal with the hate on Hublot from watch collectors in general? Can someone explain please? Thank you!
You should start with Casio watch, even if they are cheap, they also fun to collect. A lot of youtuber at least have one Casio watch in their collection
Richard Mille.....my estimation of Ed has dropped substantially. It's almost as bad as HUBLOT!!!! I tell a lie, it's fucking MORE horrible than Hublot!!!
He also has a JS watch from the watch company in Reykjavik, iceland. Lovely little shop, only makes 70 watches a year. Only a few £k but really lovely and rare
its called a "Thumb suck" and i grew up with it meaning 'guess' or estimation, so if lets say a fence installer was asked to price a job with no allowance to go to office and quote, he may on the spot say the price is a $1500 thumb suck but the invoice from that job may come in at $1350 or $1600 and it is still considered acceptable by all parties as it was a 'thumb suck' quick price guesstimate with no allowance to count materials, labor etc in the office when put on the spot.
Dutch people do know... Wet finger work! It is guess work based on checking wind direction with a wet finger to see which side dries up first. That's the side of the wind. Xxx :D
In the US it’s just “finger in the air” - meant to get a rough direction of the wind. You lick it to increase the sensitivity. Annnnnd, that’s what she said.
A friend of mine is trying to spark me into watches. Before I even started watching Nico I already own 2 Casio F-91W :) I had one but then I thought i lost one of them so I bought a new one and then found the other one :) I buy them because my grandfather used to have a 1977 Casiotron Calendar 2000 :) And he was wearing it a few years before my parents got married and died of old age wearing the watch :) We buried him with the watch because he was always with the watch. Now after i watch Nico i am going to buy myself a G-shock :)
Im born American and I know what wet finger work is really. It's how you test for windage and/or the direction of the wind. The idiom comes from the reference that you don't know which way the wind blows.

Hi was wondering if I could get some watch investment advice?
Do a John Mayer watch collection in the next video.

When can we see your watch collection
As a watch seller, you should not have a collection. Because everything is your collection.
@@Jairmyster obviously he will never sell his 1/1 Hublot “Tarantooola”
Never, because his collection is secretly all Hublot watches
he owns a watch shop.
imagine a watch, he’s probably got it.
he wears what he wants
@@penguinstk-over1905 he doesn’t buy hublots…
If nico doesn’t show us his watch collection in the next two videos, it confirms that hublot is his favorite brand

This man is making me into a watch enthusiast😂
Wet finger work? Not on this site.
Please never ever stop making content!
Year is 2025, Hublot is suing Nico for defamation
Hey Nico sorry if I come off rude but the evil eye is not rm27-03, it’s actually rm26-02. Love your show man. Keep it up

1:51 "Wet finger work"👍🏽 used in golf for wind direction but it's inaccurate 👀

As an American idk why but the thumb like thing made sense to me
Richard mille: I sell watches
Ed sheeran: I’ll take your entire stock
I'm Dutch and my grandmother used to say if you're not Dutch you're not much. That's why I'm subbed to you Dutch brother
I love that Nico hates Hublot.
Ed Sheeran's 5524 Pilot's Watch WG is actually Tiffany stamped
As a poor South African I know I can never afford any of the watches you are reviewing but damn I can't stop watching your videos!
One day you will my brother, i believe in you
You should start with Casio watch, even if they are cheap, they also fun to collect. A lot of youtuber at least have one Casio watch in their collection
Broooo I'm always watching and learning because 1 day is 1 day 🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️
I like the way that Nico was talking about how much he wanted the AP but not even half way through the video he changed it to a casio f-91w
It would be a really good idea to react to John Mayer's watch collection
Wet finger is a thing. It is used to gauge the wind direction. This is common in many countries with naval tradition
Richard Mille.....my estimation of Ed has dropped substantially. It's almost as bad as HUBLOT!!!! I tell a lie, it's fucking MORE horrible than Hublot!!!
Looks like a toy, even.
@@ammarharith5512 Yes, exactly. A ToysRus watch!!
They're godawful looking, I agree... the movements could be masterpieces, but their designs are just horrible mostly.
Knowing I’ll never own these watches, watching these videos still gives me joy.
I like how I'm so interested even though I have no idea about watches
Lesson for the day, do not drink while watching Nico video because I will be spitting from laughter.
You sound like Louie van Gaal "thats a whole another biscuit" but this one "wet finger work" is Godtier!
But I understand love the pronunciation!
Love the banter lad, your great craic
Rm: how many rms do you want?
Ed: Yes
Ed was probably given the RM "evil eye" for singing the song "i see Fire" for the movie.
Nico's day was ruined right after he saw Hublot 😅😂
I decided to get an Omega Seamaster 300 Coaxial Chrono in rose gold, titanium and tantalum instead of a 3rd Rolex. LOVE the dial on the thing.
I want a minute repeater so bad! Not s stupid quarts one but a real automatic minute repeater. But they're stupid expensive!
The wet finger trick does help detect wind direction and sometimes speed, old trick in US as well
Cant afford most of the watches he reviews but I love this mans content
Get a casio. Even if Nico sees a picture of you with it he wont shit on you for having one.
Man that Patek grand complication minute repeater is absolutely amazing!!! 👏 👌 and it's freaking platnum!
Petition for Nico to wear a Hublot on one of his videos day 23
5:03 you deserve an award or something for this Nico....I fucking died laughing 😂
You need to start a website that gives you a daily current retail market value of watches by reference number!!
He also has a JS watch from the watch company in Reykjavik, iceland. Lovely little shop, only makes 70 watches a year. Only a few £k but really lovely and rare
Just ordered my Casio! Will hopefully invest in more expensive watches in the future but a God tier is a nice place to start 😂 love the videos!
With or without the calculator ? 😃
I believe the wet finger technique is used to try to determine which way the wind is blowing and that doesn't even sound right
Natte vinger werk😂 yea nobody just casually licks their finger to show they are making a guess
His 5130R is actually priceless. Reason: instead of London, it says Framlingham on the 12 o clock position. Making it a unique piece
This guy, one of the few that makes me geanuinely laugh.
Wet finger is also a thing you do to guess the wind direction, usually with your index ;)
Ed fell at the last hurdle!! 😂
The wet finger thing is called “Sucking your Thumb” and means taking a guess. We use that term in South Africa which has a strong Dutch heritage.
Normal people : I’m Gunna take a shot in the dark here-
Nico: I’m gunna wet fINGer it-
💀
Hiz first watch nd dat RM30 iz one of my fav watch ever, they're juz simple, simply unique..🤯👌🏾👏🏾🔥🔥
Nico is the best and most funny watch expert. HE S BETTER THAN THE GOD TIER CASIO
its called a "Thumb suck" and i grew up with it meaning 'guess' or estimation, so if lets say a fence installer was asked to price a job with no allowance to go to office and quote, he may on the spot say the price is a $1500 thumb suck but the invoice from that job may come in at $1350 or $1600 and it is still considered acceptable by all parties as it was a 'thumb suck' quick price guesstimate with no allowance to count materials, labor etc in the office when put on the spot.
