Absolutely love this type of content, love the introspection and thoughtfulness. And hope that Hodinkee’s feedback can help to influence the direction that brands go in.

I recommend everyone to find the book titled The Gilded Nexus of Prosperity, it changed my life.

I totally agree with the pricing problem. Especially with Omega. I’m in the market for a black dial omega speed master sapphire sandwich. It is $8k at the authorized dealer and $6, 700 on chrono 24. It is brand new, fully stickered, with box and papers. I asked the AD for a discount and they didn’t budge.

With regard to your pricing conversation, but this market tells me is it’s no time to buy new as prices are rising. It’s time to buy vintage as those prices are dropping.

Bell & Ross BR 01 41m case size in 2024 to my Rolex Submariner, Heuer Monaco Calbrie 11 Steve McQueen blue dail, Omega Seamaster, 42m blue dail, Doxa 200 orange dail and l love them all for different reasons.

36:58 Well, the latest Scuba Fifty Fathoms. I unboxed the very recently new and quietly released Swatch BIOCERAMIC SCUBA FIFTY FATHOMS BLUE LAGOON.
