They say nothing is new under the sun, and that is true to a large extent. What distinguishes one man or business from the rest is the approach and innovation adopted. When it comes to luxury wristwatches, one man is giving everyone else a run for their money. Known widely as the Timepiece Gentleman, Anthony William Farrer is not just a fast-growing figure in the luxury wristwatch circle, he is constantly surpassing expectations and building a brand that will stand the test of time.

Established in 2017, his startup Gentleman Timepieces is like a burgeoning tree, a super enclave and a hub for those trying to sell off used luxury watches and those trying to purchase the same. But what makes him special is his knack for excellence, his eye for detail and his undying passion for bridging the gap between the needs of watch lovers and collectors and the authentic products they desire. His venture took another positive turn in October 2018 after he met Marco Nicolini at an online dealer wholesale group. A few successful deals later, they decided to team up and have since forged a formidable partnership, growing in leaps and bounds with millions of dollars in sales to show for it.

Gentleman Timepieces deals in a wide array of wristwatch collections. Their speciality is in luxury timepieces and getting them onto the wrist of people who need them. If you want a pre-use Rolex, there's no better dealer to go to than the Timepiece Gentleman. Other products include Patek, Omega, Piguet and several more can also be found on their shelves. A remarkable approach that has contributed to the success of their business is the extensive use of social media, especially YouTube. His YouTube channel, The Timepiece Gentleman is a beehive of rich information of both the industry and their business.

From the Q and As, Tips and Tutorials on identifying fake watches, to regular uploads of meets and transactions, there's always something exciting to learn. Let's take one video I find interesting. It begins like every other regular day until a homeless lady tries to sell him a Rolex, only to get the rear view of his Audi R8 smashed. It's such everyday conversations and challenges; the humanistic nature and just how he records his everyday experiences in the business that has made him a trusted name in the industry.

Today, The Timepiece Gentleman has an amazing pool of 30,000 subscribers, with an average of 100,000 views per upload. In fact, every video records an average of 70,000 views after the first one week. This is how Anthony engages sellers, buyers and potential buyers; by taking them into the sincerity of his world and giving them an insight into the world of luxury wristwatches. Added to these bits of everyday goodness is a series of informative videos that teach viewers how to detect an authentic wristwatch from a fake. Take this one on the Rolex Mariner Hulk, for instance. Anthony teaches 22 things to look out for before buying the watch.

If there's anything we can learn from this gentleman, it is that nothing is impossible.
