About this episode

Roman Sharf shares his journey from a Soviet Union refugee to a successful luxury watch dealer.

Roman Sharf, Soviet Union refugee turned $100M watch dealer, shares how he arrived in America at 13 with nothing, escaped a country where running a business could land you in jail, and became one of the first people to sell luxury watches online. From listing his first Rolex on eBay out of his basement to waking up with $1 million in inventory and rubbing shoulders with kings, queens and presidents at Davos — this is the immigrant entrepreneur story nobody has told yet.
