0:00for jack because i've been telling

0:01jacket a submariner get it i i think

0:03that would be a good watch for jack to

0:05get

0:05that would only go up in value you said

0:07that's a double-edged sword

0:09why well i think on a submariner it's a

0:12safe investment

0:13um it's a great first watch if you can

0:15afford it

0:16uh jack can afford it first off i cannot

0:19afford it

0:20second off i i i agree with you i don't

0:22think that you can justify it as an

0:24investment

0:25and that would be the only reason why i

0:26would get a want i'm gonna disagree with

0:28you here i think a submariner

0:29historically

0:30speaking has only gone up in value but

0:32it's going to be one of those things

0:34where even if we're best friends in the

0:36world

0:36i can't help you with because a

0:38pre-owned submariner sells more

0:40than a than a new one because they're

0:43sold out everywhere

0:44so is it listen if you have the money to

0:47responsibly afford it

0:50you're not you know you're not going to

0:51lose at least in the market

0:54at least historically based on the past

0:5610 years of data you can't listen

0:58how much do they cost like what's that

1:01it's you're probably gonna say seven

1:02seventy five hundred right now are we

1:03talking like the new ceramic version no

1:06what would you advise i'd say i'd say

1:07going on like chrono 24

1:09going on ebay getting like a 15 year old

1:12submariner

1:13so if you go with the aluminum version

1:15which i like um

1:16you know it's made significantly worse

1:19but it's

1:19more charming you know like 7 500 maybe

1:238 grand if you go with the new aluminum

1:25version

1:26you're probably talking like 10 10 and a

1:29half

1:30why so much why have they gone up so

1:32much in value

1:33all of them have you know um i'm

1:37not a huge fan of rolex i personally

1:39find them boring even though i do own

1:40one i own two

1:41actually why because they're a marketing

1:44machine

1:44i mean it's a status symbol it's the it

1:47thing to have

1:48uh it's a great watch nothing against

1:50the watch but whenever you walk into a

1:52rolex boutique

1:53and they laugh at you you know like oh

1:55you have the submariner and they just

1:56throw their head back and laugh

1:57and call security you know what i mean

2:00that's the reason why

2:01because they're sold out everywhere it's

2:03one of those things where it is

2:05it is what it is um i mean the

2:07submariner was worn by james bond

2:09you know before omega there was

2:12the submariner before the submariner

2:14there was the explorer when ian fleming

2:15wrote the books

2:16so it represents this like cool

2:19sophisticated machismo or you buy a sub

2:23you kind of feel like james bond

2:25it's it it's also one of the few sports

2:27watches you can wear to the office

2:28in a suit and it looks great or you

2:31could

2:31you know wear like with t-shirt like

2:33graham is wearing now it looks great

2:35it's something you can keep for the

2:37entire your entire life

2:39and hand it down and it's it's a great

2:41great watch

2:42but as a watch collector and dealer um

2:46you know you get over it a little bit

2:48because it's everywhere

2:50you know for jack it's perfect honestly

2:53it's a great way you won't lose money

2:55it's a great way to start

2:57if you never want another watch for the

2:59rest of your life

3:00you're set forever or it could start

3:04a deep and ugly addiction where you

3:05spend hundreds of thousands of dollars a

3:07year online

3:08hundreds of thousands of dollars i wish

3:10i had

3:11hundreds of thousands of dollars to

3:12spend well you'll get there

3:14eventually see yeah jack i do think you

3:17should be getting a submariner

3:18are we not gonna be talking about the

3:20the move oh let's talk about the movie

3:22yeah i know it looks like we teleported

3:23everyone we

3:24we saw the uh the footage and it looks

3:25like very harsh lighting so we just had

3:27to move

3:28and this is actually a better setting i

3:29think actually so if you guys like this

3:31more we could do our future podcast like

3:33this yeah

3:33i like it like this because you see the

3:35smash like button which is a good

3:36reminder

3:37to smash like button for the youtube

3:39algorithm yeah but

3:40for the submariner so first off just do

3:43it

3:44but just do it but i don't think i

3:47should do it

3:487 500 but also i feel like i would be i

3:51would be embarrassed to wear it

3:52it's like too narrow it's too nice it's

3:55too nice

3:56i think really respect that train of

3:58thought okay i do because it means

3:59you're a humble guy

4:01but everybody deserves to treat

4:02themselves this would be a watch that

4:04you would buy that you'd be so proud of

4:06that you could pass down to your

4:08children to your gran this is this is

4:09that i like that aspect but this is an

4:11heirloom piece

4:12that you're going to buy once as a sim

4:15to me that's a symbol of hard work

4:17saving and dedication to get a watch

4:19like that and that's going to be a

4:20constant reminder of like

4:22look what i was able to accomplish and

4:24what i purchased

4:25and that's a sign of hard work that's

4:26what i see it as

4:28that and it's still safe i mean it's

4:30safe if you really

4:31don't feel comfortable with it

4:35you can always give me a call i just

4:37don't know like what occasion i would

4:38wear it for like do you wear it out

4:40you won't wear it all the time don't

4:42yeah that's a watch

4:43well no and you're only in your house or

4:45like you know like if you're going to

4:47like i don't know like

4:48like a party with fancy investor people

4:50i feel like i would wear it no

4:51reasonably there

4:52i think the submariner is a watch that

4:55you could

4:56wear while you're putting together ikea

4:57furniture when you're playing football

5:00with your buds while you're at the gym

5:02while you're digging in the dirt when

5:03you're in the shower it's one of those

5:05watches that

5:06that i think you could keep on your

5:07wrist 24 7

5:10and it will it it's meant to take a

5:12beating that watch and it looks

5:13better as it patinas with age

5:16i'll tell you what when i get an

5:18investment property

5:20i think that that would be a good way to

5:22how about this

5:23yeah i would settle for you getting it

5:25on like uh like either a birthday

5:29uh or on a milestone like when the

5:31podcast it's a hundred thousand

5:33subscribers

5:33we're just picking that because it's

5:34within the next five days yeah

5:37but but that would be like when the

5:39podcast is a hundred thousand

5:40it's probably already hit a hundred

5:42thousand by this week so by next week

5:44you get the watch all right i think on a

5:47milestone

5:48that's when you do that i think graham's

5:50right because it makes it

5:52even more special when you finally

5:54acquire this piece

5:57to attach a watch with a memory is

5:59something men have been doing it

6:01men have been doing for generations and

6:04you know there's something beautiful

6:05about that you know why not being a

6:06birthday or or when you get your

6:08investment property or

6:10whatever it may be i think a milestone

6:12if you could pick a significant

6:14milestone that you could remember for

6:15the rest of your life whether it be a

6:16specific birthday

6:18or buying a rental property how about

6:20this the day i retire

6:21no no right then the launch is going to

6:24be like 40 years

6:24okay all right so i like the uh the

6:27investment property

6:28because i i it's so hard for me to get a

6:30watch just i feel like i'm

6:31i understand where you're coming from

6:32like it holds value but i feel like i'm

6:34still it's like

6:35i can't view it as an investment so i

6:36need to do something you have more cash

6:38sitting in a bank account probably just

6:40losing money and interest

6:41here's the thing you you don't need an

6:43emergency fund unless they keep the

6:44emergency fund in the watch

6:46really yeah you can you know why don't

6:49you have like 50 watches then i'll make

6:51you a deal

6:51what i and this is it's on video

6:54okay if you need the cash i will buy the

6:56watch for you

6:58at whatever it's worth or the same price

7:00you paid

7:02that's a deal i'll make that same deal

7:04if i need the cash

7:07my only condition i'm serious my only

7:09condition is that

7:10i would approve on the price you pay

7:12just so you're not paying like 15k for a

7:13submariner be like hey

7:14graham you gotta pay if you get a good

7:17used

7:18submariner i will buy it at the same

7:20price that you paid for it

7:22if you need the money if i need it yes

7:25what if i want it

7:27you're not gonna sell it i know once you

7:29get it you're not going to sell you're

7:30not going

7:31why would you do that the only reason

7:32you get rid of that watch is if you're

7:34like

7:34graham the stock market just collapsed

7:37my investments were worth

7:38nothing the algorithm just shadow banned

7:41all of us

7:42i'm like i i need the cash right now

7:44what if i need like an advance for um

7:46for like if i want to make a down

7:48payment and i would give you an advance

7:50i would i would i'll pay you ahead of

7:52time for for the money that you're

7:54earning you're always a month ahead

7:55anyway i'll pay you that very generous

7:58yeah i know he's a good he's a good boss

8:00yeah but i'll do that because that's how

8:01confident i am because one i know that

8:03the rolex market is not going to

8:04collapse

8:05whatever price you pay is going to be a

8:08fair part you're going to get a good

8:09deal on the watch

8:10i know i'm not going to lose any money

8:12i've always wanted the submariner too

8:14never done it but i would buy yours so

8:16there's no risk

8:18there's no risk all right i'll do it in

8:20in that case yes

8:21peer pressure i it's just like i don't

8:24think you realize seven thousand dollars

8:25is so much money

8:26like i think of that in in uh
