    David is such a passionate guy, taking care of his clients and providing every brand with a podium to showcase their products. The video is a gem, it will probably be one of the least watched on the channel :-) More business and watch related content would be much appreciated!

    What a great store! Love how each brand has their own custom booth and that you carry price points for every watch fan.
    I first saw you on Jay Leno’s garage. When I found out you owned a watch store while watching it, I always associated you with watches every time Jay had you on. Thanks for doing this great vid. Keep the timepiece content coming! 👍🏻

    I absolutely love how you have setup your business! It definitely has long term foresight and being able to fix one of the largest cost variables (rent) really sets your business up for long term success. And then to have the facility setup for events makes you that much more versatile. Thank you for another great and insightful video.

  • @markn5604
    @markn5604 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Absolutely amazing. I love the way you think...big...grand...break the mold. I'm guessing that each of the vendors paid for the build cost for their specific areas, yes? Again, very nicely done.

    One of the nicest watch stores in SoCal. I was just there a couple of weeks ago to pick up a Rolex Deep-Sea I ordered. Love the watch and the great service from their Sales Associate - Michelle. I wish I can add a ceramic Daytona like David’s to my collection someday.

  • @F8Tributo
    @F8Tributo 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thats about right for a building of that size, but it's actually great, considering the multitude of vendors involved.
    In the US, we used to build things quickly. For example, the Empire State Building was built in a year and half. To build that today would take about 2.5 years, start to finish.

    • @doublestrokeroll
      @doublestrokeroll 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sure, but a part of that is quality. I'm sure the Empire State Building is well built, but I guarantee it's not as safe as a modern building up to modern code. I'm sure their maintenance costs to keep it up to code are huge compared to new buildings.
      Yes, of course there is a lot of red tape that is probably unnecessary, but the flip side of that is a lot of what makes modern things so much better in terms of safety and standards is precisely because we know the mistakes we used to make and can accommodate. The empire state building of today, probably shouldn't take a year and a half to build.
