- HODINKEE Radio presents a new podcast and video series hosted by founder Ben Clymer. The Collector’s Edition provides listeners with an inside look at the art of collecting and what it means to be an enthusiast. The conversation will cover watches, of course. But it won't stop there. For its inaugural episode, Ben sits down with none other than multi-Grammy Award winner and noted watch collector Ed Sheeran. In the episode, the two take a deeper look at his interest in watches, what lead him to start collecting, and a whole lot more.

Don't want the latest Bond movie ruined by British Intelligence? Skip Ed's statements from 39:18 - 39:50.
Too late hahaha - hey it was worth it to watch this vid, absolutely brilliant chat!
It hurts so bad. I avoided TH-cam comment sections ever since 'hans solo dies' I don't know what's real anymore 😂
Too late. I was looking forward to seeing that movie, but I should have seen it sooner to be fair
Haha...I was straight to the comments to check the fallout after that
@@rustknuckleirongut8107 I don’t like watching movie trailers because I feel like there’s hella spoilers and they always in TH-cam ads smh
This is like the old skool talking watches! Fair play Ben! Please do not stop making these videos yourself! This is the absolute best in the industry!
Say-ko, not see-ko
Just a pity about Ed buying a hublot as his first "big" watch 😂
Hey Nico, maybe they could have you on to talk about your Hublot collection?🤓
Love you man !! You are so incredible !!! Cheers from sait. Tropez
bruh do u like hublot?
How can a 48 minute video be too short!? Man please just put Ed, Mayer, and Ben in a room and let them talk for 8 hours and ill take the day off 😊
i swear i would look at the time stamp and it seemed to skip forward by 15 mins every 5 minutes. strange...
Good call!
👀
Funnily enough they just did that exactly! Except for the 8 hours part.
I come from the future, they made a 80 minute video with Mayer as a Host and Ed as a guest 👀
Crazy how influential John is in the watch community. Has influenced members of Hodinkee, celebrities, his fans.
It was John who also gave me a different look on music!
it is crazy how we can just say "John" when talking within the community and everyone knows which John. I liked his music before I knew of his love for watches, which would be when the first ep of taking watches came out.
Mayernaise
I strangely had never heard of John Mayer until I heard of him through Hodinkee years ago
John is a master story teller. I think he could sell ice to eskimos
Dear lord...The watch series we didn't know we needed but now absolutely crave. You've set a high bar for yourself, Hodinkee.
He’s been selected as a season?
That ought to put a spring in his step.
I loved the “My first watch was a Hublot, Don’t judge me” hahaha EPIC 😂
This goes to show, even watch collectors even they are a celebrity are still the nicest people out there
I disagree. Putin is a watch collector. George Soros is a watch collector. Saddam Hussein was a watch collector. Che Guevara and Fidel Castro were watch collectors, the typically hypocritical leftists often wore two Rolexes at the same time. Kim Jong-il and Kim-Jong Un were/are watch collectors. And so on.
The lawyer Hillary Clinton hired to lie to the FBI about the Steele dossier (which is a made up packet of lies Hillary Clinton hired a foreign agent to write) to get the FBI to aid their plan to slander her rival presidential candidate with lies in addition to the media companies they had paid to systematically spread those lies totally and clearly against any journalists' principles and rules without any verification, who was convicted recently, was also a watch collector.
@@pistonburner6448 you gotta chill my man, yes there are bad watch collectors, but there are good watch collectors as well, and theres a lot more good than the bad.
@@hathaway.1166 Actually I just have to respond to your nonsensical comment itself: You are wrong, as I never said there aren't good watch collectors too. The claim I responded to was simply that all watch collectors are the nicest people. I stated in response that it isn't correct to state that "all watch collectors are the nicest people", because many watch collectors are not the nicest people. I am right, and I proved that.
And as to your assertion that there are a lot more good watch collectors than bad, I can theoretically disprove that too: not only crime statistics, but psychology studies of how dishonest, self-serving, thieving, corrupt people are indicates that the overwhelming majority of people are not "good". Even when measuring at the age groups where people are most "good". I'm not taking at all into account the age ranges where people tend to be so incapacitated as to not be _able_ to act "not good". Then taking to account what positions, professions, what kinds of status watch collectors have it only strengthens the numbers of them NOT being "good". Then taking into account the personality types, the drive that gets people to buy watches that even further lessens the ratio of "good" people in that group.
As a very raw estimate based on very imprecise numbers, I'd say that watch collectors are at least 85% not "good" for the moral, less strict meaning of "good" as people who do bad to other people, steal, exploit, are engaged in corruption and/or benefit from corruption and so forth for their own gain at the expense of others; and at least 65% not "good" in the stricter western legal sense of the word.
I met Ed recently…didn’t ask for a selfie with him, I asked for a wrist shot of our watches. Being a very nice chap he said yes. He was wearing the Tiffany Patek…
Awesome, what were you wearing?
@@LC-be I was wearing a 1950’s Jaeger LeCoultre Powermatic with an automatic bumper movement… he said he liked it.
Tiffany colored dial?
@@arseniyvdovin3183 no….the one he is wearing in this video.
@@MrJoelee73 Oh, so he was wearing _a_ Tiffany Patek, not _the_ Tiffany Patek...
Thank you Hodinkee for understanding the kind of content we want. Plain and straight interview, long enough for an actual conversation, it’s perfect.
The world just officially became a better place. If this is Ep1...... im so HYPE
Ed is great. So humble! Would love to see the talking watches even if it was only a small handful of special watches. The fact he doesn’t just want to put all his watches on a table shows how humble he is.
I love the format of this new show. Just like two casual watch nerds having a great chat about watches. 👍🏼
One of my favorite segments. Please create more casual storytelling episodes like this. The story telling is the best part of talking watches.
So happy to see Ed on this, i always knew he had nice watches but didn’t know he was so knowledgeable about them holistically. Can’t wait for talking watches with him! Thx for putting this together!
I honestly didn’t expect to want to sit through an almost hour upload BUT that went surprisingly fast!
Thank you Ed & Ben & Hodinkee crew for this discussion. Fantastic!
So stoked for this series!
Can we get Ed, Ben, & John in a long form round table talk eventually as well?
Pretty please???
Genuine person, genuine humility, genuine love of the watchmaking craft. Thanks Ed and Ben, that was special. 🙏🏼
This came up as a recommended video as ive been watching Pride and Pinion. I love how this video is just a chat, and how Ed is so conversational and not about himself. Great content.
I can't even describe how much I wished this collab would happen especially since everyone knows Ed is a big collector. Great video!!
Been waiting for this for ages! Such a great chat.
Also, kudos to the camera operator for trolling the community by focusing on the travel clock and not the talent! 😂
😂
lololol I didn't notice it was on the travel clock but did notice it wasn't on them lol
Timestamp?
your channel is very very very brilliant wow! you truly love and know watches
I love watching Hodinkee but put off watching this video for almost a week, due to the 48 minute length of the video.
Having now watched it, I believe it is the best episode they’ve ever made. Great to hear 2 watch enthusiasts simply discussing their passion.
Ed Sheeran really loves talking watches. And Ben excelled in his art of interview. Can’t wait for the episode of ‘Talking Watches’ in the future.
Finally Ed talks about watches. I have like many others seen these nice watches on Ed’s arm and was wondering - What is his watch story and how much of a watch nerd is he ? Great to see how deep into watches he really is and I love that fact that he is not afraid to use them probably and give them their own story. Keep it up….
What a genuinely decent human being, everytime Ben went into something remotely near drama it was just swerved. I love seeing people who are clearly interested in items for more than it being a flex. This is proper old school Hodinkee content. Ben is a great interviewer too.
This could definitely been like a 3 hour/3 part series! Good job guys and thanks Ed for taking the time 🙌👏
When the Tiffany blue Patek released I literally said,
" Well you're only gonna be able to get that if you're Ed Sheeran 🙄"
Oh was I wrong 😂😂
🤣🤣 Just watching now Luke 👍
@@tunokies Slacking Jason 😉
He finally got it, Just saw some pictures of him wearing it.
What a lovely, casual and respectful chat between 2 passionate watch collectors, so much admiration for anyone that has the determination to give up his mobile.... yes he can but we lived like that 20 years ago yet incapable nowadays. Funny old world!
Great conversation, I love how Ed is so modest, It's like he's almost embarrassed about how much of a collection he has. It took some doing to draw it out. I appreciate that, great conversation, enjoyed it.
Tremendous. Ed Sheehan and Ben Clymer. Who knew? It’s great to see and hear this kind of passion and knowledge. Feels great.
It was great to see his breadth of collection and his genuine appreciation of the watches.
This was FANTASTIC! Great chat and just a genuinely nice conversation about watches. Would love to see more!
Really loved this conversation and I look forward to future episodes and the talking watches with Ed.
Oh wow! That was a very entertaining time to watch this video! Ed Sheeran seems to be a really nice guy. And even with it‘s multi million dollar collection he‘s a real watch enthusiast and not a snob at all! Please make the Collector’s Edition a regular format on the Hodinkee channel! 👍👏👌
Kudos to Ed’s nod to Ben and Hodinkee. Speaks well of his appreciation and genuine interest of watches, but also his humility.
THIS, THIS, THIS RIGHT HERE is the podcast/meeting I have been waiting for. Arguably one of the most legendary watch collectors (who is incredibly discreet about it) meeting with the best curator of all thing watches. Thank you for doing this.
Great episode. A statement that really resonated and harks to what Ed said, "Email is the perfect system for you to be on someone else's agenda for your life." Also, for my friends who are new to the watch game, I simply tell them to walk into a store and see what they like. Because they are unjaded or unswayed by the industry, it's nice to see what their honest pick is.
Thought 48 minutes was gonna be too long ended up being not long enough. Fantastic episode, we need a Ben, John and Ed panel on Talking watches.
That would be insane
It was nice to rewatch this interview. Ben, I hope you can continue doing similar interviews. Love the flow and simplicity of the interview.
SO refreshing to see a guy, with money, that has the same passion that we all have for watches. He knows what he likes and displays the passion - def not a guy that is buying these pieces "because he can", but because he has a love for them
Wow. That was brilliant 48 mins just flew. Can't wait to see more of these, and the Talking Watches with Ed in the future.
Dear Ben, that was killer, thank you and it’s amazing to see you back.
This is the kind of stuff that has always made Hodinkee great. Well done.
Great to see Ben again in front of the camera.
The people wanted it, and Hodinkee delivered for the people. That was excellent.
Now this is what Hodinkee should be doing monthly. Great interview, great format. Always good to see Ben.
This was such an enjoyable video. Hanging out with two people who are great conversationalists, have a real love for and knowledge of watches, with some awesome stories and experiences to share.
Ben is a great host, and really does just make the difference. Can’t wait for more conversations. Thank you!

Just two complete watch nerds sat down discussing their passion. Their thing. Love it.
i'm happy to hear him talk about Richard Mille. The way he explains his change in sentiment reflects my evolutive appreciation for them. They've become a status symbol more than a funky thing to wear.
I literally search from time to time in hopes of finding an interview with Ed and his watches. This was knocked out of the park. Good job! If I may make a suggestion for someone to be put on a list somewhere, Peter McKinnon would be an easy top video for you guys to do on him and watches. Thanks!
Amazing conversation. Well done. Fingers crossed for talking watches with ED
Even more than Mayer, Sheeran's tales about his timepieces gave them life. You really get a sense of the significance of many in his collection.
At first I didn't really see Ed Sheeran as a true watch enthusiast. I knew he had "the" watches, but when he casually mentioned Kikuchi Nakagawa, it freaking blew my mind. I'm mightily impressed, Mr. Sheeran. Also, props to Hodinkee for this series!
Love Ed. Saw his show a few years ago with my wife and seems like a great, down to earth guy who doesn't take himself too seriously. Nothing but love for this young man!

The Art of Conversation... Personified!
Thanks Ed, thank you Ben...
As always a superb presentation...
Cheers!
Love this ! seeing Ben with guests on camera is always a Joy.
That was a really good episode. Ed really seems to love his watches and seems like a really nice guy.
Ben saying about the Moonwatch hits a nerve with me. I’ve always wanted one and nearly bought bought one back in 2009 when they were selling for £1600 new. I had some cash from being made redundant during the recession and was so tempted but I had to be sensible and make sure I could pay the bills. I got a job just as my redundancy pay ran out so it was ultimately the right decision but I could have then got one on interest free credit and I didn’t because it felt a bit extravagant. I thought I’d wait until for 40th and treat myself…..they had doubled in price by then and were out of my price range. I think I’ll always regret not getting one when they were £1600.
What a way to launch a first episode in this Collectors interview series. 48 mins flew by with Ed!
Ed always comes across as genuine and easy going. Enjoyed the chat.
Thank You HODINKEE for this awesome treat 😊
Ed's collection is effortlessly AMAZING
This was an absolute joy to watch. Gonna watch it again later with my wife.
Two of the coolest, most laid back- unpretentious people out there who happen to be incredible talents in their crafts.
What a cool chap. I’ve never heard his songs. But I know he’s a popular pop guy. You can tell these guys are friends. Super fun casual chat. He reached superstardom at such a young age yet seems super grounded. No phone for the last 7 years. Love it.
One of the best Hodinkee pieces! Ben should do more of this stuff - Great!

This just killed it, amazing conversation. There's still hope in the now devolving hype-crazed-watch as an investment watch hobby. Bringing back the old days of pure love of watches.

Now that is what I call a good interviewer! Tired of seeing so many bad interviewers in the world, so refreshing to see someone bring out natural conversations from their guests.
Always makes my day when Hodinkee drops another video. 300,000+ subscribers but still highly underrated channel.
One of the best of the hodinkee! This one and the john mayers.
Top class interview this one! Never knew Ed had such a wide ranging collection.
Fabulous piece, two of the nicest guys in the watch world shooting the breeze, awesome. Thank you Ben, and that you Ed
We need more of this, Ben it’s so good to see you!
That was fun. Setting a very high standard with this first episode. Really looking forward to what’s to come!
Didn't know you were a watch enthusiast Lowko! Cheers from a SC2 fan!
Fellow SC2 and Lowko fan here too
@@enriquesb1528 Have been pretty much all my life! :)
Damn, this was so unexpected. I'm a big fan of your work and didn't know you were a watch enthusiast, that's amazing.
can there be an episode on Lowko's watch collection please!
YES! THIS IS GOING TO BE A GREAT SERIES.
Really great natural dialog. It’s the right time. Watch content in general has been drifting and lacking. What a welcome new direction. Thanks.
A great conversation. I loved that Ed started asking Ben questions.
this was awesome. Ben has a natural interview style too. thanks for bringing this to us Hodinkee

Great episode. Loved Ed's perspective on collecting as well as life and its distractions. Caught myself smiling throughout the video. Looking forward to the series!
Great video. Loved every second and also Ed's opinions on the hype of certain brands, the longing for a time before phones and his general demeanour came across very well in this video. Seems like a genuine chap.
Best interview I’ve watched in years. Thank you so much. I’m a die hard Ed Sheeran fan and a die hard watch fan / collector, so this interview couldn’t be more up my street. 👌🏽.

Roger Smith is the man of watches. To have one of his watches is and should be everyone’s holy grail
Love Ben's combo of expensive AP on the Wrist and 80s hobo striped socks on the feet. Good balance of rich and homeless fashion.
So many valuable insights. This is like Talking beyond watches. Love Ben and Ed 💜
Unbelievable interview! Hats off to Ben and Ed, can't wait for the next one!
Ben bringing out his best tube socks from the '80s for this one. :) Seriously though, great interview. You know that watch that Ed got on the day his child was born will be a keeper for life.
Amen. On both counts.
에드시런....!!!!!!!!!! 내가 제일 좋아하는 가수가 호딘키에 나오다니 ㅎㅎ Ed Sheeran is my favorite singer! i'd like to see him watch collection thank you Hodinkee
i will tell Ed that you said hello
A Big hanks to the Team of Hodinkee for this Masterpiece
If only all interviews were this natural. Good job guys :-)
Just awesome! I love how Ed seems to genuinely into watches and wants to bring others on the journey. Proper geeked out!

Watch collecting is my bad habit, Ed as the first guest is perfect, nothing could make me happier.
see what you did there
I must say I love the natural pace of the conversation and dialogue here. :) Seems so effortless from the start.
More of this Hodinkee. Please and thank you.
Quite possibly the best piece of content H has ever put out
Ed is a real one, I really don't get RM but I do..... his points are spot on
gingers have no soul
This is just amazing! Watched it 3 times now. More of this please!
Can you imagine the watches Ed must have, just to hear how he casually slides in "the piece unique stuff" when he is talking about showing ben his collection. I truly appreciate his views on collecting, and his comments about RM. You can tell he is in to watches just for the love of them, and not for what they represent as status symbols.
Awesome episode!!! wow! can't wait to see the next episode with Ed, you two get along great together!!!!

pretty awesome chat! could have listened to more.
This was a fantastic discussion on all things horology. Ben, please give the watch community more of this. Ed Sheeran was a fantastic first guest…and I honestly don’t know much about him as a musician. Let’s bring back John Mayer.
Thank you Ben for this and welcome back to the show!!!🙏
we need a part 2 with his watches in hand
Yes finally. Incredible 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Good lord please continue making this series. That was so so so great
The world wants more of this! Ben, Ed and John pls!
That would be freaking awesome
