Remember him....the dealer who made a stream of blogs on You Tube in 2016, and then disappeared from view? He suddenly removed all his old blogs from the net and was no-where to be seen
Well, he’s back with a load of new blogs. Radiates ‘sincerity’ and a lot of people seem to like him. I have my doubts......
I heard that you have to donate to his Patreon account to gain access to his YouTube videos?

It appears that Paul Thorpe has uploaded his old videos but to gain access to his 'How to become a watch dealer' series requires a Patreon subscription.
The topic was discussed on Marc Goldberg's channel.

Here he tells you for nothing why you shouldn't become a watch dealer...
Watch robbery, avoiding it and the long term impact of it

You need to watch this. If you are being robbed, you are not allowed to defend yourself...

That’s what he’s asking for.
Yep.
Nope.
My comment was specific to the 'I heard that you have to donate to his Patreon account to gain access to his YouTube videos' statement. He's put back over 50 videos so far and says he will continue to add more historic ones and will also put up additional new ones for public viewing. Separate to that, he's intending to make 'How to become a watch dealer' videos that require a subscription to be viewed via Patreon.

Blimey!!
Is it the accent? or the tattoos? or that all his videos look dodgy as they're filmed in a car in the carpark?
Google search his name then scroll to the bottom. He has had listings removed.
He was done for having a shotgun at his shop without a licence.
He got pretty paranoid post a robbery where he lost his front teeth, hence his denture. This was in the era when he specialised in buying worn out old perspex Rolex models, putting sapphire glasses on them, then as many diamonds as possible with fake dials and bezels.
You just have to look up the convictions against his family members who are in and out of the trade.
I bought a 31mm YG Datejust off him about six months before he packed it in.
I found him very up front and easy to deal with and he operated from a rented office near Gatwick.
I took the watch into Rolex the very next day for a service, which is my usual practice, and they pronounced the watch 100% legit and original.
He has remade himself a few times after issues. He genuinely seems to be trying to push the legitimate side these days. As far as I know he moved out of the fake dials etc on his last re launch 6-7 years ago.
Still based on his past I wouldn't touch anything he has.
What did the scottish watch podcast say about mr PT?? Must have missed it
It would appear he's retracted his comments :-

Very interesting. To say the least.
Everyone loves a self promoter don’t they ? And then they properly join the clan by paying a monthly fee 🤣
was watching an archie luxury vid last night and was wondering what he was blabbering on about! never heard of this dude before
"Never trust the filth, phuckers" I think was mentioned on about 30 occasions.
lol, yes, thats the one. spittle flying every where in a way only AC3 can do...

'A relation'...For the record, yes, the person mentioned in this report is indeed a relation of mine. Not much I can do about that in all fairness.

Poor man, surrounded by villainous relatives but with a heart of gold, honest as the day is long, a warm hearted geezer; etc etc.
I loved the manic laughter at the end. I don't think I'll be troubling Paul Thorpe for a watch any time soon.
i see in his latest video hes revising the reason he left youtube originally.....interesting
I'm lost, is this the new Guy Ritchie film?
I've seen a couple of his videos in the past, just comes across as a billingsgate fish market trader.
I'm sure he's lovely
seems the beefing has died down now. was just getting interesting....
I think he’s moving the direction of his channel towards lifestyle purchases. He recently reviewed a Can Am motorcycle/ trike. Within days that was “ sold” to make way for a boat! Earlier he was reviewing his Jet ski and his Harley.
He clearly knows nothing about water craft as he was suggesting wearing two self inflating vests, one on top of another. As a minimum daft and more importantly dangerous as it would impede your ability to use your arms to float.
Strange guy!
I guess it’s a revenue stream and he’s trying to find any subject that will get him clicks. That was why he threw his teddies out of the cot with youtube algorithms. He must have done alright on watches for a bit before it dried up.
Archie luxury has made a few interesting comments in his videos about Mr T.

I don't mind him, some of his stuff is interesting, some less so but his is only one of the watch channels I watch, so I can get a balanced coverage.

3:04 onward. Is he lennon's number 2 now
Cripes. It's always the ones you least expect...
Good chuckle at that
That gave me a genuine LOL, thanks.
probably one for the BP - our beloved country makes me sick reading the 1K comments.
“ Ford... you're turning into a penguin. Stop it.” HHGTTG
Most now deleted lol
I'm sure he's as straight as his namesake Jeremy.

We all know by now, making snide and unpleasant comments is one of your favourite past times. The new internet ethos of "be kind" has certainly not registered with you.
I dealt with Paul Thorpe a couple of years ago when I bought my wife a 31mm YG Rolex. We met face to face, he answered every question that I put to him and the price was very reasonable.
I then took the watch into Rolex on the very next day (as is my normal practice) for a full service and the watch was pronounced 100% genuine with no non standard parts fitted as is often the case now a days.
So my experience of the man is good. He sold an honest product at a competitive price.
Will prob watch some of his videos but certainly wouldn’t buy a watch from him.
There was a mention of him on the London watch collectors video where he is doing a charity fund raiser. I’ll post the video below.

The mention is in the last 5 mins

Huh?

Lolled.
“My views are down recently so I ain’t playing anymore.”
Well I stopped watching and unsubscribed months ago. Hard to listen to him blowing his own trumpet.
I doubt youtube give a %%#} about you Paul.
Come on he’s a proper geezer
Archie tells him how it is!

Oh dear. How sad. Never mind.
Holy f.....
How does anyone get through these videos? I can stand about 5 minutes before the sheer repetition and talking without actually saying anything does my head in. Both Thorpe and Pluta.
