14:14 that was me and my wife at the Cartier in the Miami Design District. We were straight up ignored for a long time. I wanted to go to Cartier to figure out which Tank my wife wants so I can buy it when the time comes (milestone anniversary, I get a big bonus check, etc.). Compare to the Breitling boutique a few hundred feet away. Guy saw I wearing a 38mm watch with a small-ish wrist. He said, “I have small wrist, too. There are watches too big for you here, but don’t be afraid of watches over 40.” Tried on everything and I gained a new perspective on Breitling.
The new Air-King has such a nice case, it makes sense they would use it for the Milgauss. Superior case, movement and clasp. If only they would get rid of the polished center links I’d be thrilled.
Wow….the hardship of not being able to walk into Cartier on your European vacation. Can’t imagine what that struggle must feel like. Lol just fucking around lighten up ladies.
I think your points are valid, but in many ways have had the opposite effect. I just don't "aspire" to own anything in the Rolex lineup. They are just uninteresting and (in my opinion), have kind of turned the brand into something I don't even care to own. Boring and "snobbish" for lack of a better word. If I happen to bump into someone with a Rolex on the wrist, it's "hey, nice watch" then you don't know what you're going to get conversationally. If I see a longines, nomos, Tudor, even a Tissot out in the wild, there's a person I'm interested in a conversation with. I know the brands I listed are not "on par" with the all mighty Rolex, but really who cares. To me, they have turned their brand from the aspirational or "retirement" brand into the owner that won't shut up about Rolex.
My dad had me selling gems and African art at his flea market stand to fund a trip to Europe. Well, he lied. But I got good business insights 🙄🙏 R.I.P, probably currently scamming someone in hell, love you dad.
I wish Rolex re-released the 6062. If they did I would think they probably wouldn't create a new model, but instead adapt the day date into a triple calendar movement, and in that day date case with the presidential bracelet, yellow gold, would absolutely destroy the watch world. OR they could introduce it in the Cellini line, put it in a slim osyter case, it already has the moonphsase so they can add the triple calendar, keep it on a strap or introduce a jubilee, and that would be killer too. Unfortunately I'm more likely to get struck by lightning than for any of these releases happening.
Awesome video!!! totally agree with several poitns especially with the whole luxury going experience. Also I don't know if its me but I feel like the portrait behind Christian is crooked. My OCD was killing me haha
A rainbow Milgauss with different sapphire indices would be a fun thing, think Ball rainbow, since the tool aspect is no longer what not that relevant to the watch than the pop of color it offers by the second hand, thoughts?
On the topic of how luxury brands treat customers in stores, I recently had an afternoon to kill and went to a bunch of watch stores in a mall in my city, ranked them best to worst- best was rolex, worst was cartier
It’s interesting how many watch TH-camrs talk about these high end brands when in reality most people can’t afford this, including me. I mean there are interesting things about the brand but I don’t really understand the whole hype behind trying to guess what comes out next. Too fanboyish for me, but then again maybe if I could afford it I would also be the same.😂
Too bad 19:51 was a fake, I was on a list for Z-blue Milgauss and would have welcomed a thinner Milgauss with crown guards. Instead I'm left with an option to go second hand only...
I suppose it is fitting that the Milgauss contributed it’s case to the previous Air-King, and now it may be receiving the case from the latest AK. Personally, I prefer the old case over the new.
The epitome of not nice boutique staff is Hermes. Neither my wife nor I will ever set foot in one again. Cartier - fantastic. Gucci -- super nice staff. Hermes....sucks EVERY time in every city.
My Place Vendome Brequet story. My wife and I were looking in the windows and a sales guy came out and INSISTED we come in and look. He was so nice. He knew we weren't buyers that day but brought out all sorts of tourbs etc and talked with us for 45 minutes.
I like walking into luxury stores in my shorts and flip flops and messing with the nasty attitude: no one ever says anything--which makes it all that much more delightful!
I’m so sick of walking into luxury shops now honestly. I work in an ad for a few Swiss brands and some others and it’s so obvious people feel the same about asking to look at stuff.
Go to a sub 1000 watch store. And you will see nothing but Rolex inspired watches and knockoffs. Porche hasn't really changed their design. It works for them. Usually ppl hating on Rolex can't get Rolex..
@@BobbyDazzler888 omegas look great for the first few years... Then they look absolutely dated and old. Rolex is the Porsche of the watch world... Not major advancements over the generations.. only subtle changes. But they stand the test of time. But each to their own.
I collected my Datejust from the Rolex Boutique today, when chatting with the assistant about the new releases coming up, she mentioned that the 70th anniversary of the Daytona they’re definitely doing something with Platinum - whether she knows that from internal information or simply through rumours is a different matter so it’ll be interesting to see if the Oyster Flex plat does come to fruition
Michael moved over a bit after Christian farted. Lol. 😂 I caught that. Christian please stop eating and snacking on set. Do that after you finish taping
I actually think any of the Tudor watches that have a silicone hair spring are good up to 1,500 gauss where the actual rolex milgauss is good to 1,000 gauss.

Michael: "I thought you were realizing I was rising to god status"
Christian: "No, quite the opposite."
lolol
I might be wrong but when the 116600, last of the 40mm Sea-Dwellers, was released it had a unique case and it was only in the catalogue for 3 years.

Can u guys just upload the audio's to the podcast? I like listening to you guys for a sophisticated and entertaining car ride
Great episode gents, looking forward to seeing what actually releases.... Maybe we get an all gold explorer 1 in 36mm 🤔
lmfao Christian talking about not having money while also being in city centers in Europe as a kid.. your family had money dude. lmfao
All credit card vacations! My folks had a vision, and a little chunk of debt that powered it!

When you make 1 million + watches a year efficiency is a must.
My predictions: every watch is now left handed like the sprite

Just put the green Milgaus crystal on the green Air King and call it a day.

My OCD vs. that opened screw down pushed
Congrats on your 100k! Would love to participate in your giveaway - favorite moonswatch is Mission to Mars!
Wow, Theo has his fan on the show as a guest. 😅
36mm Day Date Theo Harrington edition?

Titanium Milgauss
I love the Milgauss, but would never buy it with crown guards

“Guilt that we couldn’t go into Cartier” is far better than guilt we couldn’t turn the heat on in the winter.
Cast Iron! I’m impressed, Michael.
Ngl i think i would be happy with no change to the milgauss, I personally love the current version
Hello fresh is NOT cheap. Get your facts straight when shilling #FTX
Hahaha, I don't think they are entirely in the same boat...
I think Rolex is boring…I think they are an impressive brand but they are loosing touch with their clientele (just my opinion)
Same watches repeated over and over. Nothing new, mediocre really.
Omega dies tourbillons, minute repeaters etc. what does Rolex do? Marketing….
Go to a sub 1000 watch store. And you will see nothing but Rolex inspired watches and knockoffs.
Porche hasn't really changed their design.
It works for them.
Usually ppl hating on Rolex can't get Rolex..
Spot on.
Most new ones are boring AF.

@@HSVGEEK Porsche??😂😂
All Rolex's look the same, especially from a distance. They only have basically two models, the Submariner and the OP.
I have a theory. I think Rolex gets homage so much and replicas are all over Instagram that I think Rolex watches get spoiled so fast.
The milgauss that was based on the Submariner would be a crazy reissue (ref. 6541).
I'd get one immediately. It would be an anti magnetic dive watch. Especially if it was 38mm.
@@TheWatchDoggg any 38mm sub take my money!!
@Knife Fiend bot really a rolex fan, bit I'd buy it in a heartbeat
@@TheWatchDoggg Have a 40mm sub and new 37mm yacht-master crazy how all the proportions size down together.
Called it about Milgauss case. Look my comment under the previous video on the topic ;)
Air King 2017-- not a weird hiccup?
Milgauss doesn’t get updated, the entire line will be discontinued and the leaks, the whole thing, is fake. Can’t tell you how I know I just know.

The Millgaus is horrible. Right up there with the Air King.
It's not horrible it's just a copy of a 1995 victorinox
Christian pretends to be humble but he loves to brag... 'I have the most amount of money of my friends and they know that'
Michael moved over a bit after Christian farted. Lol. 😂 I caught that. Christian please stop eating and snacking on set. Do that after you finish taping

When does that happen? Lol!
@@MattyVice 2:38 time stamp
This stream was a waste !!
They're not just watches... They're hideously boring.

Could this be a troll from the account @NotYourWatches? Literally, these aren't your watches that will be released.
I actually think any of the Tudor watches that have a silicone hair spring are good up to 1,500 gauss where the actual rolex milgauss is good to 1,000 gauss.
The milguass is going to be totally discontinued, stop making it all together??
