Hodinkee Editors Review 6 Of Their Favorite Watches

May 30, 2024

A day later because of the holiday weekend here in the States, but we're back with another episode of Hodinkee Radio. In addition to the podcast feed, each episode also has video, so swing by Hodinkee's YouTube channel (or watch below). Only want the audio? It's being published to the same old Hodinkee Radio feed, so check your feeds or subscribe wherever you find your podcasts (might we recommend Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, or TuneIn). In this week's episode, I'm running the three-man weave with Ben and James. I gave the guys a bit of homework before we recorded. Last month, Ben mentioned in his review of the Rolex "Le Mans" Daytona that maybe we should do "A Week On (An Owner's) Wrist" reviews every once in a while. Talking about C?and reviewing C?watches that we've recently acquired. I thought it was a pretty good idea (nice, Ben!), so I called him up and said, "Let's do it on the pod!" Of course, I had to get James in the mix as well to keep us grounded in reality (and Seiko). So, each of us came ready to talk about two watches we've recently acquired. Why did we buy them, what did we like about them, and what would we change if we could? We cover basically the entire range of watches, from Swatch to Seiko to maybe the hottest indie around.?
