There are so many poor people that can use the 2K.The tale of Anthony Farrer and The Timepiece Gentleman is a testament to the highs and lows of the luxury watch industry. Besides, on a recent episode Anthony mentioned that people were asking what if they don’t get the full amount? To which he responds “ we don’t need the funds as we can do it on our own if need be” basically saying “ we’d rather suck you guys then spend our own money” to which I say.

They asked for a 2 million raise before they even had a place to lease!! So they had no clue what they would even need to spend yet. he knows the modern stuff and popular stuff but roman is the real wizard on watches. man, doing well but asking people for moneyĪdrian is great but i always feel he's always angry lol. The moment anthony starts asking 2k crowd funding for his new store place, that disgust me. Grey market and watches and whiskey is sick. that guy knows his stuff and he's not all into only rolex, patek and ap. But if I was buying grey, I'd buy from Luxury Bazaar and not TPG. I'll keep watching both, since they're entertaining. Roman has been making vids for years, and while he's trying to grow the channel, it doesn't seem like he's immediately trying to extract money out of the viewers. I prefer watching them, and love when they go into NYC to see that whole scene. Roman and Adrian are definitely running a better business, and seem to know more. Side note - does anyone know why Anthony was banned here? But it does feel like they very quickly jumped from growing the channel to 'how can we get money out of these viewers?' It's a free country, you're allowed to give them $2,000 for access to a facebook group and your name on a plaque in their future store if that's what you want to do. It's probably legal in that it's not a literal scam. This $2M raise they're doing at $2k per person seems weird. However, it seems like they're pretty bad at business (losing watches, unsure about inventory, no real systems in place.) I get that the 'openness' is considered honest, but I wouldn't want to do business with them. It was informative, and I like the fact that Anthony has turned his life around. I started watching TPG after reading about it on this forum, to get a look at how the greys work. He gets my respect for creativity and intense work ethic and grind. He demands excellence in business and gets very involved and he put the channel together. But he has intense work ethic and creativity. Loved that it was hilarious and he’s content enough to not have to be “center of attention” and he’s definitely more horological savvy than Anthony.Īnthony is lights camera action, pure hype, pure flash, mildly narcissistic yes. He cracked me up in his video where he was talking to someone who referred to Marco as “the other guy” and Marco sort of cringed and looked confused acknowledging “yes I’m the other guy”. I love all that and he’s informative on all pieces, hype or no hype.Īnthony & Marco are entertaining too, I like Marco more though. And he’s very horological first, hype second. He does dominate the convo a bit too much but I can live with that. And he’s a family man, those things resonate with me. Roman is a big humanitarian always thinking of the less fortunate. I think I lean a bit more towards favoring Roman/Adrian for several reasons. I enjoy all of them, Roman, Adrian, Anthony & Marco. I'll definitely want to buy a piece from Roman and Adrian just for the experience and support. I can't wait to see more episodes of Grey Market. Roman and Adrian call their show Grey Market and actually focus on the grey market and watches. You can even see this in the name of the show, it's all about Anthony and his flashy brand. It's super clear to me why Anthony and Marco are struggling trying to scam everyone into this VIP club waste money left and right and make self-absorbed videos that actually teach you nothing about watches. Each episode is under 50 minutes, well edited and the cinematography is great.I like how Roman and Adrian run the business, and it's clear why it's a $100M company.Roman has great knowledge on very unique watches.Adrian is wickedly knowledgable on all watches.I love how Roman calls out Anthony indirectly on his show opening, saying that 'this isn't someone trying to make it in the business' and he's already made it, with his $100M company.I didn't realize Roman and Adrian speak Russian, and it was a pleasure listening to them every now and then. Had the pleasure of watching Grey Market ( ) today and I really enjoyed it. Only guy who knows anything is Marco, and even after a few episodes you can see that Anthony is rubbing off on Marco too much and he's becoming self absorbed and flashy. Eventually I just lost interest in the show because Anthony is nothing but a flashy egotist.

I've been watching Timepiece Gentlemen on Youtube for a while.
