Ben does a nice job here giving his guest some room to speak without interruptions. If only all interviewers were like this!

Beautiful conversation. There’s something about Ben’s demeanor when taking watches with people that just works.

What an awesome conversation! I really love how Mr. A speaks-he’s so down-to-earth and you can totally feel his passion for vintage watches. This episode is the perfect example of what Hodinkee does best-sharing great stories and truly ‘talking watches’!

Right video in the right time! Alessandro is a really cool guy, we met few times in Parma for the watch show few years ago. Cool watch talk btw. Can’t wait for the UG to come back 🤞🏽👑

Ben it was great bumping into you in nyc, so glad to see universal geneve getting spotlight it deserves. Guess I predicted the future when I mention I was a fan of UG? Excellent video and would love to pick your brain on more of this content.

This is the first episode of Talking Watches that I've watched in years. I know it's selfish to say but hope they keep walking this track they started with.

I don't think the white gold triple calendar shown around 10:11 is a chronograph although the text says so. The guys don't refer to it as chrono either. Anyway what a great interview.

We cannot overestimate the huge role Ben played in educating the world about quality watches. From new to vintage to auctions… I always thought he should receive honorary Swiss citizenship and a diplomatic passport.
