My favorite is the body language that Ben shows when Pras nudges him and says "you know what I talking about" at the 8:39 mark

I don't know who Pras is but he has really good taste in watches!

I really like that he has been through the whole identity crisis phase in his collection and come out of it really knowing what he wants.

Thanks for sharing, great watching them talk about two amazing brands!

He was in the Rap group the Fugees in the 90's, I was surprised in his taste and first watch. Go big or go home e

It was a great episode, the few last ones has been a a bit boring to me anyway, I do not normally like iced-out watches AT ALL, BUT if I ever would have the funds to buy one (most likely not) it would be the AP Tuxedo...

LOVE it...

YES,

All iced-out watches do not normally look classy, but the Tuxedo does actually...love the contrast of the dimonds agains the clean matt dial and the clean strap...top notch watch....

I know, very cool. He seemed very genuine when speaking about his collection

I like the bit about how Pras thinks about which watch to put on in the AM / impact on his mood... And Ben saying he felt the same way!

+1, absolutely agree. Did Pras change your mind on the 5712R that he wore in the interview? It looked quite good!!

It certainly looks good James . But for Nautilus, I am aiming for something a lot more "extravagant".
