Dallas court ruled on his guilty plea.

Convicted of driving with a blood alcohol content of . 08% or greater.

Up to 90 days to serve + 4yr. Probation.

Any violation of Probation terms (unreported but may involve a diversion program, etc) means he’d serve the remainder of the 48mo.

Needs a chauffeur…

Here’s my favorite episode found on his YouTube channel; it’s the one in which he appears to commit Grandtheft within the first five minutes of the opening scene.

Do you people not have anything better to do than to waste your life watching this kind of garbage?

Seriously. Go read a book.

(Said in good humor) Why did you even watch 20 seconds of it????

Many of us have far better things to do... like reading a good book

he's being sued by Bob's Watches for saying in a video that Bob's let a fake card get through(or something very close to that). So he may have received a pretty stiff "Cease & Desist" &/or his attorneys advice was to shut it down?

This may be one of a few reasons🤷🏻*♂️

I think that’s unrelated. The Bob C&D/lawsuit happened months ago and AF foolishly mocked it on camera.

I think he stopped posting vids because the Reddit trolls was doxxing his customers. He had one poor guy buy a few watches from him and agreed to do it on camera and then the Reddit crowd found the business the customer owns and proceeded to flood his Yelp with fake one star reviews. Really childish and unnecessary.

That guy is actually in the Moda groups now reselling watches. The reddit crowd was indeed onto something though. Have to give them that.

Moda is a few FB groups where (generally speaking) greys trade. Think of it like a 'meat market' for timepieces.

So he’s actually a watch dealer? Or just moving a couple from his collection?


I don’t know, I have to admit, there is a lot of BS in the AF vids.

That plumber guy never actually bought those watches from Anthony. The full set was actually displayed in anthony’s later videos/Instagram posts still for sale so it was most likely just for content.

It makes it suspicious that the plumber guy is already flipping watches when he admitted he had no knowledge of watches previously. People are alleging money laundering or the like.

Aside from the instructional videos, a la Tim Musso etc, aren't all the rest basically designed around conflict and drama.

If not for the drama, who would care. It's the basis of human entertainment since forever. Soaps, talk shows, news?, movies, books, and all of the rabbit holes of social media.

The drama is the addictive fix that people crave. The bigger the train wreck, the bigger the audience.

People in here should really look into his past. It's pretty funny.

It would not be funny if he were humble and was trying to turn his life around. But he's not. He's a con artist from top to bottom....

I stopped watching him after the fake business shut down/philanthropy stunt a few years ago. Dumb.

Wasn't he outed as a masseuse/maybe escort?

The video below popped up on YT for me so I watched it. I have no idea if the message is real or fake but as an attorney who practices criminal defense, but this guy has screamed grifter/ponzi the entire time.

And the mea culpa, “I have a problem,” etc is never to be trusted from narcissists. They will say whatever they have to to buy more time, build up sympathy, etc.

Tugger sold the watches and spent the money. That's what I think. I don't think he got drunk and lost a bag of watches worth $2,000,000. More likely he sold all those watches months/years ago to fund his dinners that are worth more than all our bank accounts.

Ponzi scheme that has been obvious for 6 months or more.

The whole ordeal needs to be a 3 part American Greed series.

Tugger is Anthony.
Coach is Anthony.

He has many sides to him. He contains multitudes.

Watch salesman extraordinaire, male prostitute, and financial coach all rolled into one hilarious package.

Coach Tugger is AF. Do some research. The house of cards has been crumbling for years, since the first black out. I do not feel sorry for him or this round of victims one bit.

I think he's been selling for Roman who probably bailed him out a while ago. Maybe he sent a goon to collect the inventory??

Crumbling for years? Are you trying to tell me that it was obvious that Coach WASN'T funding a lifestyle for people making over $5,000,000 a year by buying Rolex's at retail and selling them for $5,000 more a few months later?

Bro - don't forget he was making sills and dills.

Only a pro can make sills and dills like that and AF is clearly a pro's pro.

$5,000 an hour - that's the standard by which we all live here as watch flippers, no?
