What happens when a watch Authorized Dealer breaks their promise after you spend $250,000? Today, Christian sits down with attorney and watch collector Peter Aziz to break down a real California lawsuit where a buyer purchased a Patek 5905, a ladies Aquanaut, and a $52,000 diamond tennis bracelet just to get an allocation for a Patek 5980, only for the dealer to lose their license!

We discuss the brutal ethics of ADs forcing clients to buy unwanted jewelry, the guy who spent $1 Million on Bulgari just to get a Rolex Rainbow Daytona, and why brands like F.P. Journe and A. Lange & Söhne are showing up Patek Philippe. Plus, we share our unfiltered thoughts on Drake’s new iced-out Rolex.
