Roman Sharf:
Boys and girls, this is going to be an exciting one. What is this like? White.
Roman Sharf:
Let’s look, start with the Rolex. Rose Gold Meteorite. I can’t believe market pricing on this thing is still like around $200,000. I think Meteorite dial is a dial that’s been so underrated for such a long time, and finally people are realizing that it’s actually rare because it’s a piece of a Meteorite that eventually that will run out of that material in year 2100, I think.
Roman Sharf:
How about another Green Olive Day Date with a diamond bezel.
Roman Sharf:
Here’s a box that belongs to Arnold. I’ll give you a little bit of trivia about the T3. There it is. So here’s the watch itself. Obviously made for the movie Terminator 3. This particular watch only came with two DVDs and they used to send them to clients, and I thought where is the Terminator 3 DVD. Well, it didn’t really come with the watch. What do you mean? It’s a T3 watch. At the time this watch was released, the movie was still in the movie theaters and the third one, there was a certificate for when the DVD would come out, you would actually get the third DVD. It’s a Royal Chronograph Tourbillon, probably one of the biggest sleeper tourbillons in the market today. This blue dial is probably the biggest sleeper of them all. They’re not actually out there and readily available.
Roman Sharf:
It’s another tourbillon that I just bought. Royal Oak 45 millimeter Tourbillon Chronograph introduced in 1996.
Marco Ferrante:
That movement is actually made by Julia Papi from Renaud And Papi.
Roman Sharf:
Yeah. Julia Papi from Renaud and Papi, later bought over by AP.
Marco Ferrante:
Yes.
Roman Sharf:
A Zenith. This is a Marco watch. Talk to me.
Marco Ferrante:
Oh (censored).
Roman Sharf:
You do know what this is right?
Marco Ferrante:
I have no idea what this is. No.
Roman Sharf:
This is actually a [inaudible 00:01:24] Tourbillon from Zenith. Louis Breguet creates the tourbillon for the Queen. She kept (censored) that her pocket watch was running slow or fast and not accurate, right? So he came out with a tourbillon, which was meant for a pocket watch. So nowadays, if you’re wearing a tourbillon, the tourbillon only works when it’s perpendicular to the ground.
Marco Ferrante:
Modern tourbillons and wrist watches are somewhat useless because your wrist is technically your tourbillon, right?
Roman Sharf:
Exactly.
Marco Ferrante:
When you have like this, it actually helps with anti-gravity there’s two others. So the Journe Vertical Tourbillon, when you lay it to rest, like on a night shelf.
Roman Sharf:
Right.
Marco Ferrante:
And then the other one is Greubel Force. He angles at 30 degrees. And that actually has like anti-gravity effects. I have no idea what.
Roman Sharf:
How about, how would you say it? Roger Dubois.
Marco Ferrante:
It’s Roger Dubois.
Roman Sharf:
Roger Dubois. This is a super complicated watch because this is actually a Tourbillon Minute Repeater.
Marco Ferrante:
Oh (censored).
Roman Sharf:
So this thing retails for like 600 gajillion dollars.
Marco Ferrante:
Okay.
Roman Sharf:
Let’s see if we can hear this Minute Repeater. Ready? That sounds good.
Marco Ferrante:
Oh my God.
Roman Sharf:
I bought a Jacob and Co. Watch. Lot of respect for the man I’ve said at numerous times, let’s tag him by the way. But a lot of respect for the man for the innovation and where he started and where he is now.
Marco Ferrante:
The Watchmaking wise is extremely complex.
Roman Sharf:
Technically, this is an Orbital Tourbillon because-
Marco Ferrante:
Yeah, because it will spin-
Roman Sharf:
… it will spin around.
Roman Sharf:
Giga tourbs. Explain the significance of having a bigger tourbillon cage.
Marco Ferrante:
Bigger balanced wheel rather actually helps the anti-gravity. And don’t forget it requires a lot of power.
Roman Sharf:
Oh look, it’s another Royal Oak Tourbillon Chronograph. Except this one’s got a bit of a twist to it. This is a limited edition in titanium, fully skeletonized version.
Marco Ferrante:
Where else you going to find a piece like this? Only at Luxury Bizarre. .
Roman Sharf:
I like it. This sounds like an infomercial. Where can you go to find rare stuff like this? Only at Luxury Bizarre.
Roman Sharf:
This is an exciting unboxing, by the way.
Roman Sharf:
Nico. I don’t give a censored) what anybody tells me about Hublot. The Ferrari Tourbillon that they made, I think is an absolute insane one. Wearability wise, insane.
Roman Sharf:
Nico. Nico. I know you’re watching. (censored). This is the one watch. If I gave you this watch, you would wear it and you would love it. And you would enjoy it. Look at it, look at it. And you’re a Ferrari guy. You have a Ferrari.
Marco Ferrante:
Exactly.
Roman Sharf:
This is a God Tier Tourbillon.
Roman Sharf:
Speaking of tourbillons; it’s not one, it’s two tourbillons. It’s a Excalibur Double Tourbillon, fully skeletonized. This is one of their later models. Thoughts or any comments on doubling up on a tourbs.
Marco Ferrante:
I know Gruebel does it, but their double tourbillon isn’t necessarily two, it’s they’ll have one within-
Roman Sharf:
One in the other, right.
Marco Ferrante:
Yeah exactly. So I don’t know a hundred percent how it works. I assume it’s some combination of maybe the resonance, you you know how resonance affects a watch.
Roman Sharf:
Exactly.
Marco Ferrante:
But the two turbillons work-
Roman Sharf:
Note the speed each one is moving at.
Marco Ferrante:
Yeah. So they’re different.
Roman Sharf:
Exactly.
Marco Ferrante:
There must be a differential in there that balance it out.
Roman Sharf:
That’s that’s exactly right. See, give him a little hint. He’ll go with it.
Marco Ferrante:
That makes sense.
Roman Sharf:
Let’s open up, how about a Gruebel Forsey?
Marco Ferrante:
Oh (censored).
Roman Sharf:
You talked about the 30 degree technique turbillon. Here’s a 30 degree technique turbillon. Now the 30 degree that we’re talking about is the incline of the turbillon, which you can see here.
Marco Ferrante:
It’s a double turbillon, right?
Roman Sharf:
Yes. It is.
Marco Ferrante:
Just look at the depth on that. I don’t know if you can capture that.
Roman Sharf:
Go ahead. Say it. Oh (censored).
Roman Sharf:
Concept: open work, chronograph tourbillon from Audemars Piguet. See, this is actually wrong because they made three versions of this. If you look at the tachometer scale, see that’s blue. This was the blue version that came in a light baby blue strap, but somebody put her on the red strap. So technically this is supposed to come with the blue strap.
Roman Sharf:
Speaking of 45 millimeter, Royal Oak Tourbillon Chronographs. Here’s another one for you. But the titanium one I showed you earlier that limited edition also came in a rose gold. And again, it comes with a strap too, so you can wear it both ways. And if you looking at a watch, and I think this thing is trading 250, right? Thinking about how much watch you get in for that money versus let’s say-
Marco Ferrante:
A Rose Gold Nautilus, 5711.
Roman Sharf:
Thank you.
Marco Ferrante:
Yeah.
Roman Sharf:
It makes zero sense.
Roman Sharf:
Last but not least. There’s a lot of watch makers and companies out there I admire. One particular version who luckily is still alive is Max Busser. He made tremendous chronological machines, but they also did this thing. It’s called the last edition. So when they finished with a horological machine, at the last, they did one in crystal and this is the Frog in full crystal. You will not find this watch anywhere. This was before the Tiffany craze. This watch was made way before the Tiffany craze. Wow. Just wow. That’s all I can say on this one.
Roman Sharf:
Anyway. I wanted to thank everybody for tuning in. Thank you guys.

Let’s go.
