Kevin O'Leary stopped by to show me some of the crazy watches in his collection and to talk watches with me. Mr. Wonderful discussed his collecting journey, watches as investments, as well as the watch market as a whole. I also shared some watches with the Shark Tank star, including the brand new Fleming Series One and some pieces from European Watch Company.

I loved the fact that even though they are here to present MrO'Leary's watch collection, the interviewer is asking questions about the man, not his possessions

@danielduncan2883 2 месяца назад

Loved the interviewer. Best questions O'Leary has had to answer. Great insight not heard before. Well done. Just subscribed. O'Leary does inspire me to go harder collecting

@alexderavedissian9169 2 месяца назад

Always been partial to O'Leary because of his ties to Cyprus ... his insight into his watch collection, and the status that comes with that collection, was very interesting. Great pod.

Really great video and interview, Craig! This is random, but I actually came across you years ago in the Home Gym Community Facebook group and admired your apartment living room setup! I was just getting into watches at that time but didn't know much about them. Kevin's comments were pretty accurate in that I started with a Hamilton, then moved to a GS not long after. Funny how quickly it can escalate haha

@wristenthusiast 2 месяца назад

Thank you! Yes, I got really into the home gym setup back in the day. And I am still a fan of Hamilton. My Khaki Field Murph 38 is one of my favorites!

Nice interview with Kevin. I know you mentioned the Tantalum metal. Kevin, take a look at the Omega 25th Anniversary Seamaster (Tantalum) that came out a few years ago. This piece also has several other metals with the tantalum. Stunning timepiece that is under the radar.

@Andy-ri1ns 2 месяца назад

Great interview, and I love the channel. The Patek museum in Geneva only opened in 2001 so I call bullshit on that. O'Leary is a hypebeast collector and only got into it when the bubble commenced for purely monetary reasons.

I like Kevin, hes down to warth and a family man, hes also into wines, olive oils, cars,real estate, and watches to name just a few; and of course hes Canadian...that giant country with 90% of its population living less than 100km away from its southern border.

Kevin gets a lot of love, and also a lot of hate from the watch community too… ok well, maybe not “hate” … but maybe some eye-rolling etc.. lol… but I give him the pass - I think he is definitely a watch guy.. sure, yes, you will hear him every now and then make a really goofy comment or say something that maybe other true “watch guys’ wouldn’t say -- but we also have to remember what level of status this guy is on -- of course he’s going to be a bit different I always enjoy seeing his videos.. or interviews like this, or with other RU-vidrs and so on --- I feel like Kevin has been instrumental in getting luxury watches even more mainstream- and there is no denying it, that he truly loves this stuff and I think it’s just great - I would love to get to meet him and talk watches You did a great job with the interview - Im subscribed now!
