With some patience we can all achieve those watches... And some of our members own such amount of watches or more without a doubt... They just choose to be more subtle with their collection..

"He spent some time in Arizona" - referring to Sierra Tucson which is a preeminent rehab center that is literally 3-miles from my old house.

That was an awesome video. Thanks for sharing.

Not positive, but I took the gist of his comment to be that the genuine watch manufacturers really need to step up their game to justify the premium when knock offs can be so good. What did others think?

I watched the video - now I don't feel so guilty about how much I have spent on my collection. Those watches they were talking about where six figures ! ! ! !

That's basically it I think.

I believe he said something to the effect of when he sees a knock off (Patek Jumbo SS Nautilus) like this that watchmakers today are taking the P*ss. A British expression implying that watch companies are making watch buyers look silly by charging (and getting) incredible sums. That's my take.
