From Massive Watch Fraud to World Cup Parties

T&H Live

June 26, 2026

Today’s vlog is a total rollercoaster. We are stopping everything for the World Cup to drink great Sonoma wine, watch the intense Brazil vs. Morocco match, and talk my friend Tory into buying a beautiful blue vignette Longines Legend Diver. But beneath the family parties and sports hype lies a dark truth I recently uncovered on my trip to Argentina.

In this video, I deliver an urgent warning about the systemic, rampant fraud running completely unchecked in the high-end vintage watch trade. From reputable dealers knowingly selling watches with fake Tiffany stamps and manufactured provenance, to an underground “union” of Italian counterfeiters demanding equity stakes to print fake Rolex Paul Newman dials, the system is deeply broken!
