"Chameleon" Patek is spectacular. Only 2 in the world out of 6 originally made ? This is insane. 50k estimate seems low to me. GREAT video again, thanks Adam.
These videos are a treat. Not about the whole PepsiDaytonaRoyalOakShebang - but about rare and historic pieces. I love this content, it is so interesting and fascinating. Thanks again, Adam!
So many amazing and stunning time pieces at that auction! The Patek with the black dial , 3700 & 1518 are my personal favorites, but that yellow gold Rolex Daytona with black dial & Champaign sub dials is def a shoe stopper and stunning. Whoever ends up with any of those is super lucky, can go wrong with Amy of them! Great video, explanations & content, keep up the great work & Killin' it!
Great content Adam! Saw you on the other end of the Christie’s auction room😁 I always neglected these auctions since they seemed out of my league but if you put in the effort to do proper research and you can see the watches themselves it’s possible to score something really nice. I took a few home but missed one piece no one was talking about…
Adam, thank you for sharing your insightful knowledge on vintage Patek & Rolex. I could listen forever since I am learning from your experience. At 15:29, I need to report a true crime in progress. The person who bought this exquisite Daytona, ref 6263, and never wore it should be banned from the hobby! Obviously now someone is going to buy this watch in new old stock condition, but it is such a tragedy that it has never been worn and enjoyed by the original owner.
Excellent vlog, great content. At what point does a watch become classed as vintage, is there a line the sand for example 25 years old or is it more complicated ?
There are 3 islands in the Los Angeles Harbor, each named after the Apollo 1 crew. The most northern named after Grissom (33.75941° N, 118.18154° W) followed by White (33.75310° N, 118.15915° W) and then Chaffee (33.73987° N, 118.13911° W)
The poor last guy couldn’t get a single word in without Adam cutting him off, dude let people finish a sentence for once!! Hanging out with Roman “The Ego” Shart too much!
So so true love 😍 the true statement. Truly true. Guy could not get in a full 🌕 and completely complete sentence... wow. Maybe ..I can do.a.word cou t with. A I. Artificial intelligence. How many words. .said by menta watches. How Manu by the other individual 😂
Every major auction house has skeletons in their closet. Surprisingly, I do the most biz with AQ and find them to be the most forthcoming of the 4 major houses. But with any auction, it is always caveat emptor. Buyers too often fall under the “I’m buying from Phillips/Christie’s/whatever, so it must be correct!” trap, and don’t do their proper due diligence. That’s a mistake.
