"Julian" bracelet? The guy really seems to know a lot about his watches...

I watched that video with subtitles on.

YouTube subtitled Patek Philippe as "protect the leaf" and Audemars Piguet as "I do my peek at."

What a buffoon...he knows better than to feed the watches as an “investment” narrative. Oh, and those red Rubber Bs are hideous. Much worse than the “Julian” bracelet

What a self-serving video. If you’re going for the “investment” play, it’s only natural to tell everyone to buy the same stuff you have. This will keep the hype up, and the demand and prices up.

fortunately for him, he has 400 million reasons to not care one bit what TRF or anyone else for that matter has to say about him, his point of view, or the video

It is a self serving video. buy these 6 watches as investments watches because they've gone up 50% to 125% in value. But it just now means HIS watches will go up in value even more because other non-wis people will start chasing those watches.

Anyone who has the means, relationship, connections, and watch knowledge already either have these watches or are the "list" for them somewhere. He said absolutely nothing that TRF didn't know. unfortunately now all the non-wis will start chasing

He infuriates more people than most of his counterparts in the business analysis game.

As for watches, he is pumping an asset at a peak. Not usually a wise move for “investors”. (I use that word in quotes since O’Leary is pumping it that way.)

Frankly, watches are a potential money pit because they have more expenses compared to other classes. Insuring, securing and servicing watches, cars and other fiddley assets just dilutes your net return.

Talks about investment on watches you can't get.....so it's like saying 'How to be a millionaire: First get a million dollars......."

Gah! It's almost as bad as hearing Trump talk about tariffs as a tax the Chinese have to pay on good they export to the US.

Wow. That’s hard to watch. When he adds the accents to certain words it’s like nails on a chalkboard.

Couldn’t even make it through his discussion of the Daytona...sorry, the “panda”

Likewise. He's a nauseating little runt.

Exactly how I felt. Every time he said it I hated it a little more.
