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’!

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.
