    Why does Jordan Belfort Wear a Hublot?

    ⚙️  Roman, Love everything you’re doing currently! I actually have a question about comparing the rising prices of certain whiskey to the continuing prices of platinum Daytonas. For example Pappy is now $2,600…when it originally retailed for Close to $80! LUDACRIS! Do we see the prices only getting higher or will it eventually crash and burn – Owen  ⚙️ Roman I am considering buying either the new 41mm Seamaster 300 but then I came across the new Tudor Black Bay 58 if you take price point out of the equation which would you be more inclined to go with? This is my first luxury watch and I want to eventually give this to my son without him thinking “That’s such an old man watch” – Jericho  ⚙️ Roman im not sure If this is a Nico Question or a you question….but im a big fan of the wolf of wall street aka Jordan Belfort and I was wondering if he’s actually wears a Hublot? Why is it that all of the big name ceos wear non hype pieces – Ben  ⚙️ Roman, we all know that they bring in money but why do you hate Bustdowns so much? Is there not as much as a profit margin on them? – Chuckie Have a watch or industry-related question?

    Do you think the Aquanauts are going to be the next Nautilus?

    On this episode of Q&A Tuesday I answer the following questions: ⚙️  Roman what are your thoughts on the new code 11.59 Tourbillon Openworked? I love skeleton watches but something about this watch doesn’t sit well with me – Artie ⚙️   Hey Roman, Huge fan keep killing it! My question for you is pretty straight forward why did the rolex palm dials fall flat on its face? I’ve seen maybe two in the wild and maybe one via the grey market? Do people just not like them or do people just not know what to charge for them? – Sil ⚙️   Roman, Like you im a self-made business man. Im looking to put 50k into some pieces as investment pieces. And yea I know “Don’t invest in watches” But if you were to spend 50k on investment pieces today what would you be looking for? Thanks from your friend across the river – Tony  ⚙️   Roman going to make this very short, do you think the aquanauts are going to be the next nautilus? Price wise? – Paulie    Have a watch or industry-related question?

    How do you think future generations will look back on Artisans de Genève?

    On this episode of Q&A Tuesday I answer the following questions: ⚙️  I've been really impressed with the latest AP Code 11.59 two tone chronographs with the ceramic case.  I think the contrast really highlights the design of the 11.59 line.  I tried on the WG model at the AP House boutique in HK and then put my name on the list.  They didn't say how long the wait is, but I assume it should be a reasonable time.  I remember in your Q&A episode 89 you mentioned you were buying 11.59s at around 25% off and then selling them at 18-20% discount off retail, but this was over a year ago.  The retail in HK for the ceramic is HKD 332K, which is about $43K US.  Is it possible to get this watch for a discount? Or should I just be happy paying retail for one of the newest models? ED ⚙️  As a stock trader I’m curious which currently produced watches (i.e. you could hypothetically buy from an AD at retail) trade the most above their retail price on a % basis?  As a $ amount?  I’d imagine the AP Royal Oak Jumbo and Patek Nautilus are up there, that’s not even too mention Richard Mille.  – Brian ⚙️ How do think future generations will look back on the creations of Artisans de Genève, will they retain their value and what makes them different from other watch “customizers”? - Collin  ⚙️  Where do you see the Rolex Milgauss Z Blue in the next 5 years? Increase in value, unchanged, possibly discontinued? Chris   Have a watch or industry-related question?
