I Bought My Dream Watch, But I Took A Big Risk

So there’s a watch—my dream watch—that I’ve had my eye on for a while now, but it’s one of those watches that as soon as you walk out the store with it, loses like 40% of its value—and I don't want to lose 40% of the value. So, with the help of eBay, I saved a bunch of money and bought someone else’s.

I've bought & sold expensive watches on eBay. Like all marketplaces you need to be aware of what you are getting into, but otherwise I've had no issues. The authenticity feature was a welcomed addition.

KNEW it was going to be Alpine Eagle bc I did the very same shop comparison and have the exact same complaints!! Love seeing this beautiful watch finally get more recognition…

I bought the exact same Alpine Eagle used too. Love the watch. The lucent steel feels so good! Enjoy!

Congrats on the purchase Andrew, a great choice for sure!

Well said, bravo. Brilliant piece. Love the mention of the Zenith, VC, GP, IWC. At this price range, this Chopard is a bargain.

Damn you Morgan. The last time I watched one of your videos I ordered an enamel dial watch I’d never even heard of before. Now I’m on eBay looking at a FM Casablanca. I’m too tight to pay for YouTube premium and yet my YouTube account seems to be costing me a fortune.
Congratulations on the new watch though. Wear it in good health.

Crash Landing On You references top tier 💯😂

Great choice! Alpine Eagle, Ingenieur and Laureato were all on my shortlist of integrated bracelet watch choice. I ended up going with a 38mm Laureato but the Alpine Eagle was a close second. Looks way better in the metal than on spec sheet or videos. Preferred the no date version with the high frequency LE but price range was out of reach. Enjoy in good health!

This Chopard is a fantastic watch. The numerals have a solidity and heft which is not present on other watches. Chopard has engineered an unobtrusive 41mm that is both elegant and robust. And you got this at 40% off - Andrew, what do you have to complain about !!

Fantastic choice! In sea of AP’s, PP’s and Rolexes you chosen great watch with distinct character and superb finishing-in and out! Congrats🎉 Enjoy it.

You had me at 'a dog's reverse thruster' ;-)

Congrats Andrew!! Stunning watch and dial color is the chef’s kiss

[notyourdaddy]

Happy for you. I think I might have chosen the GP or even the IWC, but to each their own!

Picked up a MAMACOO's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!

[jlore]

I think it looks great. Nice choice! Glad that process at eBay went well and that they are sponsoring your vid. Thanks for sharing.

Welcome to the club. I have a 2 tone Alpine Eagle and it is one of my favorites

[astorbeijer]

You bought the right color Andrew. In every other color, the dial looks like a b-hole. But the blue tones it down to where it just looks like a textured dial. I'd definitely buy this over a RO. It just has more character...even if that character is a little off-putting. It has a certain charm that the RO lacks.

Congrats on your new purchase! Hope you enjoy it!!

I dream of it too. In real Alpine Eagle is simply stunning both in appearance and in touch. Chopard especially pleasant to twist in your hand, I don’t know why.
