Description

Today’s guest is none other than Ben Clymer, Chairman & Founder of Hodinkee. As someone whose background and company need no introduction, I figured we could dive right into all things collecting, both watches and cars. See, Ben’s been around the block a few times and it’s easy to not get jaded. So what’s keeping Ben interested these days is what I really wanted to know. We talk about the grail Talking Watches guests and why it’s not just about being a collector, but having the passion to do so. Of course we dive into his passion for car collecting and his elusive, one of only nine, Porsche Zagato 356’s. We also talk about the coachbuilder themselves and why they are so sought after and important. A recent father of two, Ben’s collecting looks a tad bit different these days. Still chasing the same things for himself, but two little ones as well, all in good taste. Alright, let’s get to it. This is Ben Clymer, for Collectors Gene Radio.Hodinkee - https://www.hodinkee.com/Fair Game Golf - https://www.fairgamegolf.com/Ben's Porsche 356 Zagato - https://www.wsj.com/articles/its-a-brand-new-porsche-from-1959-11580828549Ben's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/benclymer/?hl=enTalking Watches - https://www.hodinkee.com/packages/talking-watches
