Chris shows up to not wearing a watch — and admits to something almost unthinkable in the watch world: he sold his grail Rolex Daytona.

In this episode, Chris and Julien break down what led to the decision, the emotional cost of selling a grail, and the hard lesson every collector eventually learns: buy within your means. From regret and memory-building to market realities and collector psychology, this is one of the most honest conversations we’ve had.

And then… the reveal.

Julien delivers Chris’s new watch — an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15300 — and the discussion shifts into a deep dive on AP, Royal Oak history, neo-vintage value, and why this reference might be one of the smartest modern Royal Oaks ever made.

⏱ Topics covered:

• Selling a grail watch (and the regret that follows)

• Emotional vs rational collecting

• Buying within your means

• Rolex Daytona market realities

• Royal Oak history & the Holy Trinity

• Neo-vintage watches explained

• AP Royal Oak reference comparisons (15300 vs others)

• First impressions of Chris’s new watch

• Why value ≠ hype
