    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.

    it all feels a little bit like a fake "beef" to me. seems the vids have all had higher numbers than usual and no mention of the high sub numbers that vanished....

    Christ these videos are only half a step above those bare knuckle boxers who post extensive roasts against each other. Amusing for about 2 mins.

    What a waste of YouTube bandwidth. How do these guys get monetised publishing this rubbish?

    I seem to find myself spending most of my time trying to figure out if Paul's teeth are real or not when I watch his videos!

    Seriously, his videos would be so much better if he didn't ramble and repeat so much. You could cut the duration in half with most of his videos, and they would be much better for it.

    He says the gnashers are false, the real ones having been knocked out in the robbery where his AP was stolen.

    I don’t mind Paul Thorpe he has a take on the industry that is certainly unique and passes on a lot of knowledge in layman’s terms.

    He is clearly hugely experienced in the watch game and knows his Rolex.

    Not really sure why he gets such a bad rep.

    Big Joe Joyce of the watch world doing a call out video. I just need someone to offer the other guy a straightener now which seems to usually be pronounced "strainer"

    100% false, a pretty bad dental work to boot, Toilet bowel white ceramic without any character or flair. It always annoys me that a guy with 100k watches, bikes and a nice house. Who obviously appreciated quality, would have such low quality dental work.

    Easy, no resale value so it's a 100% sunk cost. He's not willing to pay up on that basis.

    If him not choosing to have false teeth that does not match your exacting standards causes you to write in and have a moan, then then frankly ... .... ...

    Maybe he could only afford those gnashers at the time?

    Now he's clearly got some dosh, if I were him, id sell a few watches, and get a set of all gold teeth for an extra touch of class.

    As a newbie, I’ve only recently found Paul on YouTube and to be fair have watched a couple of his videos and have learnt a few things too.

    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.

    I suppose he had to find another grift to keep the cash coming in.
    I wonder what kind of money can be made spouting hate with SYL?
    Throw a superlike to get a call out from Litler and his watch guy🤔

    Newsflash: unbearable moron with suggested criminal links spotted with other unbearable morons.

    I immediately turn off anything with Thorpe in and certainly won’t knowingly watch anything which he might profit from.

    the fawning over SYL from his asylum of knuckle dragging sycophants would be funny if they were not in my opinion such dangerous people. Reading the comments on the YT video they love to spout on about ‘sowing the seeds of division’ and ‘lest we forget’ failing to realise how ridiculous this is when put alongside their agendas.

    Edited with apologies. I had assumed the thread was in the BP due to the nature of the video.

    His YT profile says that while he 'was one of the UK's leading and most established independent watch dealers', he is now, quote, a 'Crime figher and Campaginer for social justice'.

    So his concern for England doesn't extend to concern for English.

    If Paul Thorpe wants to fight crime he can start with some elocution lessons.

    I started watching his video response to the scruffy Irish lad - I switched off when Thorpe started defending Tommy Robinson. It looked like he’d intended defending his reputation but end of digging himself a bigger hole instead.

    And his own family...

    He was odious before being outed as an ultra-nationalist, yet managed to attract business connections with seemingly decent watch folk. I hope that business associates reflect on this video and reconsider any association with the Thorpe crime family.
