michael perry And he's just so happy. It's like watching a kid in his own candy shop. It's hard to watch any of the other Talking Watches episodes after seeing this. None of those guys can even compare to his level of knowledge (and the watches in his collection...damn...) I'd be interested in a TW with Thierry Stern though...
This guy is a big big fish. Not only he exudes wrist-watch wisdom, but he has a couple of Van Gogh's hanging in his wall... I'm gonna watch again. And again.
@@stevendouglas3860 there considered affordable by the wealthy your average submariner is 8-10 thousand dollars, your average royal oak about double, pateks 40-55 thousand

Im definitely not the first to say this but this is the best episode. Jean-Claude has been the most interesting person talked too, arguably the best collection, and the information being talked about was the best. I had no issue watching the entire video, then wish there was more. If possible please do as many videos as possible with Jean, whether its an interview or what ever. Itll always be great for the channel
Have you ever seen someone speak with such passion for watches? Such an energetic guy, Biver is. It's refreshing to see a seasoned collector and connoisseur with a truly one-of-a-kind classic collection wearing something slightly ridiculous like the Big Bang. It shows that he simply loves watches and not just the elitism and snobbery that often follows.
This is my favorite episode and I find myself coming back over and over again. From the beautiful scenery shots to the music to Mr.Biver's story telling, it's truly the best.
Second time Im watching this interview. Easily on my top three of Talking Watches. Solid interview, just the right amount of passion, historical facts and behind the scenes knowledge. Also he has charisma.
TheGodEmperorofMankind I cut timber for a living and I wear a sub on a bund strap. If I did not wear it to work there would be no point in having it cause I would rarely get to enjoy it. Of course it’s not in the same category as these watches but it’s not in gshock category either. If you can’t afford to loose it you can’t afford to own it. Gosh I hope I never have to eat those words.
Jean-Claude is great. He is so enthusiastic when he talks about his life and watch collection, which makes the video so much more interesting. Great job Hodinkee!
It's been 5 years since I watched this interview for the first time. I'm keep watching again and again.. Sometimes several times a day! JCB is huge We need more interviews! It's about time
Coming back to this video in 2024, those 'masterpieces' he talks about at 11:16 are actually pretty good value on the used market. They're probably not popular because the cases are small, but they're gorgeous watches. Seems like a bit of a shame how Swatch has handled Blancpain since they acquired it. It seems like the brand has had difficult times at least since this video was released, which is 10 years ago now.
First time watching this interview as I'm new to the watch world and I have to say this one is timeless. Have been binge watching Hodinkee Talking Watches non stop. You guys are great.
You know, I've skipped this episode a bunch of times because I wasn't sure who he was...but man he was very interesting. So glad I finally watched it. Such a fascinating man. He's lived an interesting life, and what and awesome collection
this is the first episode of talking watch that i didnt miss a single second. great questions asked, and even better answers. Truly a remarkable journey of Jean Claude Biver. Through him, we can see and absorb the entire process of the brands’ evolutions.
This is BY FAR the best video ever made about watches anywhere in the world at all times! You WILL NOT SEE all these watches togheter in another collection.Trully amazing
The enthusiasm and joy this man has for watches is contagious, as well as quite heart- warming and, honestly, revitalizing to see. Very very enjoyable, thank you, Hodinkee.
love this interview, with all the snobbery that one can find in the watch world Jean-Claude Biver comes across really down to earth, makes me think differently about LVMH.
In a written interview, Jean-Claude said the one thing he would like to do is tour the Rolex factory, which of course contains secret manufacturing techniques. That was an interesting comment from a Patek collector.
This man is more knowledgable on watches than I will likely be on anything in my entire life, but honestly fuck this trend towards lumping stupidly oversized watches on your wrist.
Just to put it into perspective, his dog is sleeping (and slobbering and worse) on a pure silk Persian rug with a ridiculously detailed pattern... I conservatively estimate that that rug alone would be worth something in the 6 figure range. If it is a notable maker or is older than 50 years, then it would be considerably more expensive.
Cannot count the number of times i've seen this episode, 6 years have gone by and i still come back wanting to hear his passion for watches. Sad that he auctioned off a few of those remarkable pieces from his collection.
Wow!!! The history and knowledge this man possessed is phenomenal. What a collection and in mint condition. I felt truly bless listening to this man. Thank you...
The greatest watch interview ever. I've watched it 10 times since it came out. Truly. I sat my kids down yesterday afternoon to watch this delightful genius. My youngest at 12; said I'd really like to meet him. Thank you sir for this wonderful industry. Great interview Ben.
Such an amazing dude. I didn't even know he'd basically revived Blancpain. I only really knew about AP and his time with LVMH, because of the rivalry and whatnot. The Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe and Bathyscaphe Chrono is my grail watch, followed by an Royal Oak. And if I somehow had that FU money, I'd also have an Aquanaut and/or Nautilus.
Interesting fact that years ago Jean-Claude Biver was delivering watches by himself to his customers. This is one of these reasons why he is such a successful person.
Great episode! Love getting Biver's insights on Royal Oak, Nautilus and Big Bang. Helps put them all into perspective. Also on building the Blancpain Brand...
I've watched this episode the most....like my 6th time now, who knows jz a great episode. JCB is so captivating and draws you in when you start watching, u have to watch to the end. The watches are a bonus!
What an amazing interview! And those Philppe Patek's. Nothing short of beautiful and legendary time pieces. Would love to own just one of them. Hopefully, one day.
like I said before this guy has amazing enthusiasm his love for watches and knowledge on horology of people and the watch industry makes a man like him a valuable asset in a company and the world thanks for the sharing.
I never had anything more expensive than a basic Casio in my life and don't really understand the "passion" for watches that cost tens, hundrets of thousands or millions. The watches this gentleman has are even visually mindblowing, just wow.
I am a failure - At one of the lowest points in my life ... Yet this great man Mr. Biver made me smile several times with his smile - His passion - His knowledge - His collection ... I even smiled when I saw his dogs :) I bet even his pets have a passion for the ultimate Horological rarities and masterpieces and love Patek ;) On that table are tens of millions of dollars worth of Grail watches ... And here I sit alone in the dark trying to talk myself out of committing suicide. May God forgive my sins and have mercy on my soul. *** One last thing before I go. This Genius Mr. Biver reminded me of a quote by Winston Churchill that goes something like this : I am not hard to please - As I am easily satisfied with the best ***
The biggest name in mechanical watches. The rejuvenation maestro of elite brands and everything we know about watches these days. I'm melting with nostalgia and sheer awe as I type this.
a living legend...best one so far, but makes me wonder...of the head of Hublot does not collect his own brand and goes for P.P. why should anyone else do??? Awesome job!
Great job; true icon of the industry. Collecting your competitor’s product - fantastic. I think his dogs have heard all these stories before - they were bored.

best "talking watches" episode ever.
Jean-Claude Biver took every brand to an higher level succesfull.. Very impresive job!
howd you like getting yelled at for an hour? did he smell like wine?
This is by far my favorite episode of talking watches! Very good!
What watch I have to buy today in order for Mr Biver to deliver it to me?
Dennis Nikolayenko probaply the beast on his wrist
Seven years later, I still watch this video regularly. Fantastic discourse.
I go back to this episode every once in a while. I think, despite the John Mayer vids, this still is the best one 👌🏻
Andre Cipriano for me, considering that he has a significant portion of his net worth on watches, Mayer is the king.
Great episode! Love getting Biver's insights on Royal Oak, Nautilus and Big Bang. Helps put them all into perspective. Also on building the Blancpain Brand...
That 1518 rose gold with pink dial. My dream watch.
I've watched this episode the most....like my 6th time now, who knows jz a great episode. JCB is so captivating and draws you in when you start watching, u have to watch to the end. The watches are a bonus!
Great history lesson. But it is kind of odd seeing Biver collect all those gorgeous Pateks while sporting a massive Hublot on his wrist.
he explained it in the video. Patek was his ultimate rival back then as he was sporting I believe at AP. 13:50
Hublot? Merci beaucoup!!
Ohio Atheist I was about to say the same thing, I love it tho
That rose gold Big Bang at 4:45 doesn't look too bad though
agree its a beautiful piece
So glad to hear JC Biver talk about Blancpain which is so important in watchmaking industry and SO largely underestimated today.
Watch snobs: Hublot is for people with a lot of money and little taste.
Jean-Claude Biver: hold my beer.
Wow!! This is the best so far!!! Jean is the man!! Nice history lesson and great watch collection. True Collector.
Is it too much to ask that the dude not wind million dollar watches that aren't his?
What an amazing interview! And those Philppe Patek's. Nothing short of beautiful and legendary time pieces. Would love to own just one of them. Hopefully, one day.
17:30 'that gave birth to some rumor that we would buy patek'
'but you're not?'
...... no answer
the answer is no lol
I keep going back to this episode.
What a personality. "..You see the conditions are incredible"
Mr Biver oozes watches
I hope one day I am graced to meet him. One of my idols, and my inspiration of getting into the business of watches.
I'm curious if you don't mind sharing what do you do in the watch industry?
I'm in sales currently, have had a passion years before. It's a start, looking at more schooling in terms of business.
Does anyone know where to get the transparent cases that JCB uses to store his wristwatches and pocket watches seen in 2:21 ?
Hey guys! Can we please have a part 2 with this legend? I'm sure he has a lot more to show and many stories to share.
Terrific interview! That 20 minutes flew by. What a pleasure to listen and learn.
He definitely is the watch industry himself!
like I said before this guy has amazing enthusiasm his love for watches and knowledge on horology of people and the watch industry makes a man like him a valuable asset in a company and the world thanks for the sharing.
Just when I thought your videos cannot get any better.
lt00000QMUL ii
This might be the 50th time I've watched this. Just amazing and inspiring. THIS is watch passion.
Did he just admit to giving insider information about Blancpain to AP, as he was working for Omega???
That's what I heard too lol
IMO the BEST of talking watches series... very2 entertaining and informative to watch.. thumbs up!
I never had anything more expensive than a basic Casio in my life and don't really understand the "passion" for watches that cost tens, hundrets of thousands or millions. The watches this gentleman has are even visually mindblowing, just wow.
He has the money to drop so much on the watch lol, with his income its kind of like us saving up for a 5k speedmaster.
Oh my goodness. This is my favourite ‘talking watches’ so far. What a great video 👏👌
