That's an interesting video. It's also a great take on watches. Wasn't expecting him to be a watch guy but it seems like he has good views on the subject.

I dunno... felt like purple prose for most of it, and it's hard to get past the fact this was an obvious staged interaction for product placement. Key takeaway for me was he's sponsored by AP and certain watches reflect certain moments or stages in life, which I definitely do agree with.

"I'm not a watch guy." "Why, what's your problem?" was great though.

Did you see Colbert touch his nose when he asked? Classic gestural slip.

Aren't all these talk show bits staged to a certain extent anyways? Essentially an ad for the celeb too.

Yes for sure, I just think this was particularly egregious.

Staged or not, kinda captures the sentiment of “value of time” and certain events that I’ll always remember when wearing a watch. I liked it.
