  • Matt Jacobson is the type of guy who doesn't need to live in Silicon Valley with the rest of his world - he is the head of Market Development for Facebook - or in Beverly Hills with the other men of means; he'd prefer to live in a Ray Kappe-designed home on the water in Manhattan Beach - the type of home you might, and actually did, see in Dwell Magazine. To put it simply, Matt Jacobson's life isn't about excess - it's an expertly calculated equation that suits him and him alone just perfectly. His watch collection follows suit. This is Talking Watches with Matt Jacobson. For more, go to www.hodinkee.co...

    What a thoughtful and tasteful collector! He could own anything, his level of restraint to keep just the very best is considerable.

      Couldn't agree more! Seems like a very down-to-earth, real sort of guy. I have to say, though, being that the water is such an important part of his life, I was surprised the word "Panerai" never came up in his chat :-)

    This is in my opinion, the best Talking Watches guest ever. He's a collector who doesn't have to have everything but the ones that truly make him happy and serve a purpose.

    i love how simple his collection is and i also agreed with him when he said that he doesn't need to own a whole punch of watches which is right because i often see a lot of watch collectors that own over 100+ watches which is insane. great video

    One note on pronunciation cuz it bugs me.
    paddock =
    noun
    A small field or enclosure where horses are kept or exercised.
    Patek =
    The first name of the watch brand Patek Philippe SA, named in part after Antoni Norbert Patek (French: Antoine Norbert de Patek; 14 June 1812 - 1 March 1877) who was a Polish pioneer in watchmaking and a creator of the Patek Philippe & Co., one of the most famous Swiss watchmaker companies.
