I appreciate Ben's willingness to be open and frank about certain criticisms of HODINKEE and I think he addressed them well. Good show!
Nice job. I think this video makes Ben more human… it’s the version of Ben I like. I think he’s a genuine good guy.
He really gave us a lot, one of the best guest we’ve had.
Always enjoy listening to Ben Clymer talk about watches, a true watch geek!!!!
Fantastic interview. Professional questions and great balance in interaction. I enjoy almost all Ben's content and this was up there with the best.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing Tim!
Ben: people’s champ. People forget Ben is a businessman but when it is said and done Ben is a man who loves watches
Guys amazing interview with Ben. I’m not even done but can’t stop listening. 👊🏼👊🏼
Thanks Derek!
Great interview, good questions and interesting industry insight from Ben.
Super sharp guy. It’s almost like he does this for a living! 😂
Well done guys! I'm glad Ben made it to the podcast.👏
We’re glad too! 😂 He was awesome.
Great Conversation and Cintree to die for! Always wonderful to hear about the origin story of one of the most influential media entities in the watch space.
That Cintree is everything in person!
Ben's Collection is Really, Really Good. Cintree is a Grail for me as well as Lange 1 and I think he has an Uber Rare Lange 1 in Steel! @@WristCheckPod
Frikkin loved the interview with the Yedi😂. Great to see Ben giving acte de présence again at Geneva auctions. One of the guys in our industry who really pushed the envelope. There is an era before and after the Dink within our little hobby. Subscribed ☑️
Thanks for watching Donatello, and we appreciate the support. It’s cool to see how humble Ben is and at the same time how confident he is in what he’s built. The community is very much richer in spirit because of him.
Great chemistry, great interview skills, and just an overall great episode!
Thanks for tuning in!
What a way to close out the season!🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was a really great episode, great questions, great answers. I’m not sure if it was too short or if I was having too much fun watching it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Really good job
Appreciate it Joey!
This is epic! So epic i’m commenting before even watching it.
It gets epic(er), if that’s a word…
@@WristCheckPod finally got the chance to give the video the attention it deserves over the weekend. Man the amount of insight and knowledge to be gained here especially around the growth of the modern watch culture is immense. Love to have learned about how Benhahmias helped to grow Hodinkee at the beginning and how that investment has helped them in return!
What an Episode!!!!!
What a great interview/hang. New respect for Ben
Class act!
Amazing episode!! Well done
Between your episode with Tristan and this one, you got a new subscriber!! I need to explore your older episodes now! Love seeing vintage Cartier on both of these episodes.
Welcome aboard!
Wow y’all got Ben on here! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
And he did the damn thing!
Fabulous... Would have liked to have explored more about the layoffs, company performance, and the pivot from losing so many luminaires on the team to the current crop of young editors and new personnel--otherwise the best show you've aired yet...
Another great episode! You guys always have amazing content 👏🏻👏🏻
You’re the best Dave, thanks!
I love listening to Ben
This was a SPECIAL one!!☝️
Such a privilege.
Great work gentlemen 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you 🙌
He’s an introvert too! That’s good.
A very nice Cintrée!
Bens a honest mensch
Great interview fellas. A sore point for me is the lack of diversity within the Hodinkee staff in the aftermath of these layoffs.
great episode! Love to know more about how brands are BS’ing us.
You might enjoy the next episode 👀

In the words of Snoop Dogg “That mutha****a don’t miss” … Another great episode for the watch culture 🔥🔥🔥🔥
🤣🤣🤣 LFG!!!
Amazing interview! Great questions and great responses. I’m still thinking through Ben’s defense that what they publish isn’t an endorsement. True. Very true. Buuuut giving potential scams a platform or doing editorial videos/content with incorrect watches is still problematic. There have been a few misses in that respect that are totally excusable - we’re all human - but I don’t think the ‘Dink can just wash its hands clean on that. Especially with pre-auction coverage.
That said. Amazing interview! Some of the best watch content in a long while!!
My 2 cents, from a longtime and continuing Hodinkee fan!
And just offering constructive input here. Not looking to flame Hodinkee or Ben.
Thanks for sharing!
That cintree oh come on that is nice
Thats cool but wassup with that tunnel in Brooklyn synagogue?..
..
We all know how Pras got those watches 😂
Wasn’t gonna say it! 👀😂
Wait did he say Cara Barrett is NOW his wife, or is NOT his wife? I need answers 🤣
He’s her biggest fan! She’s taken! 😂
Dude mind fucked here. Huge fan of both but neverrrr knew they were married to each other. lol totally makes sense!
@@etamarshamoil2739 me too man! I rewound like 3 times to make sure I heard correct lol. 🤯 def makes sense though lol
I wonder if he told himself : just. The. Right. Amount. Of. Swearing. Before going live
😅
The host with bucket hat...awesome hat!
