With Jack and Cole P. gone, he has no choice but to man the helm. I miss the early Hodinkee days.

His Daytona is suspect. Perezscope questions it as Franken watch.

I just saw that. Interesting. Love him or hate him, he's on point quite a bit.

I can't find this on his website. Source, please? If it's on IG i'd like to see a screenshot as I'm not a IG user, thank you.

Perezcope cn be abrasive but he is generally right on the money and I think he does a service disclosing the fakes etc bec anyone can fall for shady things in the watch market.

I like Ben. What clothes he wears? I dont really care

He does a good job IMO at least on all his interviews, knows his watches, and has done a pretty damn job with Hodinkee. Imagine going from starting a watch blog in 2008 to now sitting down with Mayer, Sheeran, Levine, and so many other non celebrity watch enthusiasts. Not bad for a day job. Sign me up!


Copy and paste below from a 2020 article


Now, that blog is a $100m watch media + commerce empire
Per the WSJ Magazine, the company just raised a $40m funding round, led by the likes of The Chernin Group (which backs Barstool Sports), musician John Mayer, and Tom “I have more rings than fingers on my hand” Brady.

Clymer tells WSJ Magazine that HODINKEE — which had 1.3m site visitors in October — is on track for revenue of $25m this year.

The majority of sales comes from its ecommerce watch business that was launched in 2012.

Adam has a nice collection. He definitely has a love for watches but knows he's no John Mayer, in the collecting game.

This is wild - I wonder if word has gotten back to Adam and whether he's done anything about it. I guess Hodinkee would never weigh in on it?

Hodinkee would never dare to hurt the feelings of the guy who sold Adam the watch….that’s what Hodinkee is nowadays - a complete sell-out!
