1 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,320 It's episode 12 of this Watch life. 2 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,920 Hi, I'm Lydia Winters. And I'm Vu Bui. 3 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:17,640 And today, we're going to talk about Turning Point watches. 4 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,560 We always talk about the watch that got us into watches. 5 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,840 That's like a very common question in the community, but 6 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,240 we wanted to talk more about some turning point watches in 7 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:31,240 our collections. And a turning point watch is a 8 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,840 watch that shifts your collecting in some way. 9 00:00:34,160 --> 00:00:37,800 It it's sort of there's a before and after this one watch, 10 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,280 there's maybe it's just your philosophy about collecting what 11 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,160 you collect it it it it's a turning point. 12 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,760 Things turn. Things are not the same as they 13 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:53,320 were before the point, a turning point, because they turned and 14 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,640 things happened. So today we're just going to go 15 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,520 over my turning point. Yes, it's a Boo Booey Turning 16 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,560 Point episode. Turning Point Watch is not life. 17 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,920 I find this exciting because I do think people focus a little 18 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:12,520 too much on just the origin story when they talk about watch 19 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,320 collecting. But often times the origin is 20 00:01:15,320 --> 00:01:19,200 not the most interesting. So I'm really interested in 21 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:24,600 other people's like it's it's like why more than why they got 22 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,360 to watch. It's like, what did that watch 23 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,440 then do to them? Yeah, I mean, because I think 24 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,160 it's because with the origin story, we're mostly talking 25 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,720 about the watch that sucked us down, This rabbit hole of like 26 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,800 endless money spent and time like the pit of despair. 27 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,360 Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a sad moment. 28 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,320 Yeah, that you're like, I can never go back. 29 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,400 There is no before, There's no before. 30 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,360 OK, OK, I'm going to get started. 31 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,160 The first watch on my list that I I think really changed my 32 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,960 relationship with watches was a watch you bought me in 2012. 33 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:08,320 So this was a little while back and it was, for me hitting a big 34 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,800 milestone. And you got what at the time, 35 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,400 was the biggest gift either of us had gotten for each other. 36 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,360 I mean, cuz I'm amazing. Is that why? 37 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,080 Or were you just prepping me to buy you a bunch of? 38 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,400 That's what I usually do. It worked. 39 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,640 I like a one for two. So I give Boo one expensive 40 00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:30,120 thing and he gives me two back. That's my goal. 41 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,880 So first one was the TAG Heuer Carrera Caliber 6 and you let me 42 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,960 pick this one out, we went out. Together. 43 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,960 Because I knew nothing really about watches at the time, and I 44 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,440 wanted to get you something special for a work milestone. 45 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,360 And yeah, you I we just went to the store. 46 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,720 I don't know how much you actually thought about it 47 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:51,960 before. A lot. 48 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,840 Oh, OK, good. Because I didn't. 49 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,920 I was like, hey, I'm going to buy you a watch. 50 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,040 It's interesting because, you know, being a turning point 51 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,200 watch it, it was a turning point for me in many different ways. 52 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,840 I mean, in one sense, I mean it was my first luxury watch, what 53 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,360 you would consider a luxury watch. 54 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,040 So by far the most expensive watch I had ever owned. 55 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,400 I did not purchase though, because I bought it. 56 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,240 But also, it marked a few interesting things. 57 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,280 So for one thing, I really wanted A tag Hoyer. 58 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,560 Yes, you did. And even though in the past few 59 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,600 years I have not been at all interested in the tag Hoyer 60 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,200 brand or tag Hoyer watches. Although now there's something 61 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:38,920 called A tag Hoyer essence. Like A tag Hoyer Renaissance, 62 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,760 but you put it together. Tag Hoyer. 63 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,040 Yeah, I'm not good at saying it, but I yeah, it looks better in 64 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,960 print. Once again, kind of like fryer. 65 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,560 Don't don't say it, don't say it, just say it. 66 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,800 Yeah, tag is. You know, coming back. 67 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,520 But this was way before they were coming back. 68 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:58,080 And I just remember it. It took me years to figure out 69 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,440 why did I want A tag Hoyer over all these other brands in that 70 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:07,320 moment of my life in 2012. And I remember my boss when I 71 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,920 was like, I don't know 22 working at Oakley the Sunglass 72 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:17,120 Company and he we had Oakley watches and you know we wear 73 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,480 Oakley watches. They were cool. 74 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:24,440 But he said one time like, yeah, but one day when I've really 75 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,840 made it, I'm going to get A tag Hoyer. 76 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:32,080 And that moment stuck in my head subconsciously and made me feel 77 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:37,840 for a decade after that, that a true mark of success was A tag 78 00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:40,400 Hoyer watch. So when it was time for you to 79 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,720 get me a gift that marked a career milestone, I was like, I 80 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,840 want A tag, Hoyer. That is a. 81 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,920 That's a whole. That's a whole. 82 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:54,040 Other topic is just how you have these watches that you know the 83 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,760 brand before you know anything about watches. 84 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,240 That's so interesting. I love that. 85 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,440 Story When we went to buy this watch, I still knew very little 86 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,920 about watches. I had been collecting very 87 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,480 affordable watches, just fun pieces. 88 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,000 And what this tag, why it was really a turning point for me, 89 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,520 is actually it changed my relationship with watches from 90 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,440 just a fashion accessory that I just put on my wrist and wear 91 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,200 and not really. Care about you weren't wearing 92 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,800 watches. All the time, single day to 93 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,080 something that I felt was important in itself and when I 94 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,440 put it on it made me feel something. 95 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,480 Whereas the previous watches which were like Nixons and G 96 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,720 Shocks and just you know, fun watches that were fun. 97 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,160 And I had a few of them. They they they weren't important 98 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,360 to me, but this one was, and this was the first time I felt a 99 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,240 watch could really be important. Yeah, I think that moment that a 100 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:51,240 watch, you put a watch on and you realize you never want to 101 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:57,080 not have, never not stop it. You never want to not have a 102 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,120 lot. I don't know why I'm going at it 103 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,440 again, that you always want to have a watch on your wrist. 104 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:03,640 You don't need to double negative. 105 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,640 Here forever, I think that is always like a turning point 106 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,760 watch. Sometimes it's the origin watch, 107 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,400 but like for me it no spoilers for my episode. 108 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,760 But for me it wasn't the original you know watch. 109 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:20,520 It was a different one. But it's, yeah. 110 00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:24,600 So my second Turning Point watch was two years later. 111 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:29,440 I walked in to the AD and I was like, you know what? 112 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,960 I think I want to get one of those GMT master twos. 113 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,600 At the time, they were black bezel. 114 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,000 The This story really, really is time. 115 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,280 Period. It really shows you what. 116 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,840 The time of the world it was. Very different going on back 117 00:06:44,840 --> 00:06:47,480 then. I walk in and the Eddie says, 118 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,560 yeah, actually we just sold our last one. 119 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,760 You're going to have to wait two weeks. 120 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,600 What 2? We and I said what? 121 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,360 I'm not waiting two weeks for a watch. 122 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,760 That's ridiculous. What do you have in stock right 123 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,360 now? Rolex GMT Master Two. 124 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:13,960 I'm not waiting two weeks. No one would ever do. 125 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,480 That never bought anything. Never. 126 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,280 Bought a watch. The only watch I own. 127 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,800 Lydia bought me and I'm walking in demanding this watch. 128 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,320 Two week wait. I said no. 129 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,480 Went with my second choice, This is not a distant second, which 130 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,520 was the Rolex Explorer to polar the white dial. 131 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,000 And I. After I bought that watch, I 132 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,600 think the big thing that changed for me with watches was feeling 133 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:44,440 like a watch was an important part of like my kit, especially 134 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,240 for travel and adventure. You know the tag. 135 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,160 I wore it in all kinds of conditions. 136 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,880 I'd take it swimming. I didn't have a screw down 137 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:53,880 crown, but it had 100m water resistance. 138 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,520 I took it everywhere. I took it jet skiing like that. 139 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,360 Watch survived all kinds of stuff, but I didn't consider it 140 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,080 an adventure companion. It was just on my wrist when I 141 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,360 did those things. It's like you you you were like 142 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,960 what tool watches. I I still don't think I had 143 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,400 heard the term tool watch in 2014. 144 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:19,280 But I bought this watch and suddenly it was like, I had this 145 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,360 cool companion for travel, for adventures. 146 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,240 It's a GMT. So the travel part was like, oh, 147 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,240 I just love getting on the airplane. 148 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,360 And I had my little routine of as soon as that door closed, I 149 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,840 had to change to the new time zone because it's like, oh, 150 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,440 we're no longer here, we're there now and so. 151 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,440 Yeah, you always really love doing that. 152 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,640 And I was like, what time is it? I don't have a My watch is the 153 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:46,240 wrong time from the time zone I was in and also the time zone 154 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:47,240 I'm going to. Oh. 155 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,000 You're still just trying to sell the loosey goosey idea, But 156 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,920 yeah, this watch really changed my thoughts on even just like 157 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,840 having watches for specific purpose. 158 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,240 And that, you know, watch isn't just the the watch that tells 159 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,440 time. It may also be the watch and 160 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,440 companies you on adventures, or the watch you want to wear to 161 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,760 special events, or the watch that you travel with. 162 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:16,200 All of those things suddenly became possible and enabled all 163 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,160 of the collecting that was to come. 164 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,600 Yeah, I mean, it's what we talked about recently is that 165 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:26,040 you when you get the one watch, a lot of times you want to have 166 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,080 the watch that can do anything, go anywhere, do anything. 167 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,200 I mean, even the tag for you, you're like okay, 100 water, 168 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,080 100mm water is it like, I can really do anything in it. 169 00:09:35,560 --> 00:09:37,560 But then as you start collecting, you're like okay 170 00:09:37,560 --> 00:09:39,400 now. It's an adventure watch, you 171 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,120 know? It's not just a watch I could 172 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:45,960 wear, because in order to make any sense of what we're doing, 173 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,680 we need to categorize much more specifically. 174 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,520 So now it's like, oh, this is an adventure watch, but only for 175 00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:55,440 this type of spelunking. Only my. 176 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,640 Spelunking journey, Spelunking. Which is what the Explorer two 177 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,720 was made for, and Boo is always spelunking. 178 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,720 Yeah, absolutely. You know, and I only wear that 179 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,760 watch for that specific purpose. OK. 180 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,240 Next watch. This one was much more recent. 181 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,360 This was in 2021. And you had to wait more than 182 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,400 two weeks. I did have to wait more than two 183 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,880 weeks, multiple months. It was. 184 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,960 I think sometimes it's nice to wait. 185 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,480 That's probably a controversial opinion. 186 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,760 But if you wait for something for many months and you still 187 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:33,840 want it, or maybe even want it more, I feel there's more of an 188 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,640 impact when you finally get it. You know, even though you're 189 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,640 only waiting because it's just not available. 190 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,720 Not like you're waiting to earn it. 191 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,280 You're only waiting because it's not available, but it does 192 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,400 increase the excitement. Anyway, very different from the 193 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,320 guy who couldn't wait two weeks to waiting like. 194 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:54,760 The world had changed. So in 2021 I bought finally my 195 00:10:54,760 --> 00:11:01,760 Rolex GMT Master 2 BLRO, also known as the Pepsi, and this 196 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,200 watch made a change that I truly could not have seen coming. 197 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:06,480 No, me. Neither. 198 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,160 I really didn't see it coming. But after I got this watch, 199 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,880 which when I finally received the watch, put it on my wrist, 200 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:19,920 wore it home, wore it for multiple weeks in a row, I felt 201 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:25,200 it was the perfect watch for me. It for me, my lifestyle, who I 202 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,760 want to be, not just who I am, but like who I see myself As for 203 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:34,840 my style, how I dress, what I wear, where I go, like what type 204 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,080 of events and what type of travel and what type of things I 205 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,760 want to do in my life. This watch felt like the perfect 206 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:46,240 one for all of those and it felt like, wow, I could be A1 watch 207 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,840 person and I can own this watch and nothing else. 208 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:54,600 And the problem with loving that watch so much is it killed my 209 00:11:54,600 --> 00:12:01,000 desire for other watches, and it made me evaluate new watch 210 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,960 purchases in such a different way that it's been very 211 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,400 difficult to buy watches since I got this watch, even though it's 212 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,840 been 2 1/2 years. Yeah, it really. 213 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,440 I mean, I was surprised too. I mean, I knew that you love 214 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,400 this watch. You wanted it so much. 215 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,040 You know, that honeymoon period where you're like, oh, look at 216 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,400 my wrist. But then it just kept going and 217 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,240 going and you were like, this watch, this watch is so amazing. 218 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,000 And I think the next, the next year after that purchase, I gave 219 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,000 you a watch, but that was it. You didn't get any other watches 220 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,880 because you just like you just loved it too much. 221 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,720 I do and it it's still. Or a good amount, yeah. 222 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,560 There's no such thing as loving something too much. 223 00:12:43,560 --> 00:12:46,040 Well, not not inanimate. Well anyway, I'm not going to 224 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:51,600 get into obsession, but I I feel like I still have that. 225 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:57,000 Problem is that every watch that I'm interested in, I have to 226 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,760 think when would I rather wear this than the watches I already 227 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:02,520 own? So it's not only being compared 228 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:07,280 to against my GMT Master 2, but it's like after I got that watch 229 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,560 it changed how I viewed owning watches. 230 00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:12,320 Yeah, would you call it a turning point? 231 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,400 It definitely a turning point. Watch it. 232 00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:19,760 Really just made. A turn and a point. 233 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:27,920 Point of turning that that now I I I collect differently and that 234 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:32,840 actually luckily my 4th and final turning point watch that 235 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,920 I'll talk about today helped me to be able. 236 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,840 To bring you back into spending money, spending money, buying 237 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,720 more watches. And that was the Hamilton Khaki 238 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:50,000 Field Murph 38. I hadn't really been that 239 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,240 interested in what I considered at the time, like more 240 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,000 affordable watches, sub $1000 watches. 241 00:13:56,400 --> 00:14:00,680 Like, I think they're cool, but I felt like, Oh yeah, you know, 242 00:14:00,680 --> 00:14:04,000 that's where you start. That's what it felt like to me. 243 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,440 You start in there, that category, and then you move up. 244 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:13,280 But over time, I've started to realize, like, no, all you know, 245 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,760 all these different watches at different price points. 246 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,440 It's not a level that you're levelling up to your pipe price 247 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:20,920 points. You can approach it that way, 248 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,680 but there's no reason that you need to. 249 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,280 No, it's a lot more about your own philosophy of like how you 250 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,400 want to collect because some people would like to have way 251 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:35,640 more watches and you know at A at a price point that is more 252 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,120 accessible to you, you can have more watches. 253 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,280 And some people don't want to wear an expensive watch. 254 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,760 They're worried about, you know, the safety concerns or image, 255 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,840 you know what that says about them. 256 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,760 There's all kinds of reasons to want different things at 257 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,520 different price points. And it's not just a matter of 258 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,160 higher price equals better, right? 259 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,080 Especially with things like watches. 260 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:04,400 So I bought the Hamilton Khaki Field Murph, which I spoke about 261 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:10,080 in episode 2, I believe, about, you know, how how great that 262 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:15,120 watch was for me. But what it really did was open 263 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:22,640 my eyes more to this world of sub $1000 watches and the 264 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,800 immense joy you can get out of these watches. 265 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:31,520 Because when I bought that watch, I was as happy and joyful 266 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:36,760 and excited and giddy when it arrived as I have been when I've 267 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,840 bought much more expensive watches. 268 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:43,760 And that realization that it's not only like these quote, UN 269 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,600 quote, high end watches that can bring that joy, that was a 270 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,480 turning point for me. That's probably a good turning 271 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,400 point. I I I hope so. 272 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,920 It feels positive. I think it it really allows you 273 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,440 to expand your collection in a different way. 274 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:03,320 You started real, you know, real big, basically by getting the 275 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,680 tag and then going straight to Rolex. 276 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,760 So I think this is a good, you know, it's part of that 277 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,440 evolution you kind of did the backwards watch collecting and 278 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,960 that's kind of interesting too. Yeah. 279 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:20,160 So I would love to hear about all of our listeners Turning 280 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:21,200 Point watches. Yeah. 281 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:26,120 What was the watch that turned you from the point that you were 282 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,200 before the time? No, but. 283 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:33,160 I I really am interested in these stories because it also, 284 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,040 it's not just that it tells you something about the watch, 285 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,640 actually it tells you very little about the watch, but it's 286 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:43,600 more about the philosophy, how these people think about their 287 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,280 watches. The philosophy and watch 288 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,960 collecting. So yeah, tell us. 289 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,600 Tell us your turning point. And for now. 290 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,680 Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye. 291 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,640 It's a Tuesday. Let's do it. 292 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:56,720 Bye bye bye.
