EP 422: This MISTAKE Is Quietly Killing Your Watch Value

From buying, selling, trading, consigning, servicing, and sourcing luxury watches every day, we see this constantly. Overpolishing is one of the biggest mistakes luxury watch owners make, and most people don’t even realize they’re hurting the watch. Because sometimes the cleanest-looking watches… are the ones collectors want the least.

EP 421: Watches Serious Collectors Quietly Avoid

Most watch buyers chase hype. Experienced collectors usually don’t. In this video, Chris breaks down the watches serious collectors often move away from over time and, more importantly, why. We'll cover: - Hublot - Panerai - Breitling - Certain hype-driven Rolex models This isn’t about calling these watches “bad.” It’s about understanding long-term collector behavior, market patterns, wearability, and why some watches stay in collections while others eventually get sold off. From buying, selling, trading, consigning, and sourcing watches every day, we’ve seen the same patterns repeat over and over again. If you’re building a watch collection, this is something worth understanding before making expensive mistakes. Let us know in the comments: What watch did you eventually move on from?

EP 420: Is Audemars Piguet Still Worth Buying Today?

Audemars Piguet was one of the hottest brands during the peak watch market years. Royal Oaks exploded, prices skyrocketed, and everybody wanted an AP. But the market changed. In this video, Chris breaks down whether AP still makes sense to buy in today’s market and why the answer depends entirely on the reference. From buying, selling, trading, consigning, and sourcing watches every day, we’re seeing a major shift in how collectors approach AP. Because today, buying “just any AP” is not the same thing as buying the right AP. Let us know in the comments: Do you think AP still makes sense right now? Which references would you buy?
