Ben Clymer Presents: Ep. 09 - The Golf And Watches Episode With Keith Mitchell
Ойын-сауық
For the ninth installment of Ben Clymer Presents, Ben sits down with pro golfer Keith Mitchell, who is known not only for his success on the pro tour but also for his sense of style and his deep love of watches. Ben and Keith dig into everything from Keith's training to his family history in watches. They also touch on what he brought along in his watch roll to the recording, special creations from Laurent Ferrier, the pros and cons of playing with blades, and some extra cool references from Patek Philippe.

Keith pays too many people Ben Hogan didn't even have a caddy.
This is an incredible episode. Maybe my favorite BCP so far. True enthusiasm and the most interested I’ve ever been in golfing in my life. Dope collection - goes without saying. My favorite watches of his are the John Mayer, quartz tank, and the Laurent Ferrier piece unique.
My favorite of the "Ben Clymer Presents" series. Someone truly passionate about watches. Great to see.
What a fantastic episode. Keith is super passionate and just a clear fan of the watch industry both the macro and micro. Always good to see someone who is a HUGE hodinkee fan get a chance to share their story.
I’m a big golfer and newly found watch lover. I’ve always thought KM was a little stuffy but after watching this he seems like genuinely cool dude 🙏🏼 Respect

Keith is a cool guy but he's hiring way too many people Ben Hogan didn't even have a caddy.
Why not just go ahead and make this a dedicated Talking Watches episode? Have him bring his collection, put it on a table and discuss. Seems as though you’re trying to separate yourselves from TW but haven’t.
It's wild how I was introduced to Keith through a GM Golf (Good Good) video, afterwhich I started following him on Tour - now I'm watching him on Hodinkee talking so genuinely and passionately about watches. Never would've thought the two worlds would collide like this! I'm sure glad it did - incredible episode.
One of the best pieces of YT watch content put out in a long time. Cheers to B.C. & Mr KM Mitchell
You can see and feel the passion Keith has about watches. His collection is absolutely incredible. Great episode!
Outstanding interview gentleman, Keith really knows his stuff about watches and I really enjoyed listening to all the golf Chat. Well done!
Awesome episode. The 5320G cream dial is even more versatile but that salmon is killer. Along with the 5236p and 5326g my favorite Patek. The Laurent one off is obviously fantastic. He’s got that and the 116508 that he can wear around Augusta. Btw, nice guy. Very relatable. Fantastic game, too. Hope he wins a Masters. Would be fitting for many reasons.
Enjoyed this
Great, Great Video Ben1 Casual golf fan, but now I’m a big fan of Keith! Clearly he’s one of us and a great interview. Keep em’ coming
Keith is my favorite golfer. Seems like a legit hang. Get a lot of style inspo from him. Waiting for him to get in that winner circle once more!
Oh man, this episode just blows my mind! I like Keith even more now. Great stuff!
"I want the best example and I want to wear it" true WIS lunacy 👍
Both my vices colliding!! Great episode
Please Hodinkee, give him a watch roll that has separators between watches. Those case sides must be scratched quite a bit by the crown of it's neighbor. Lovely episode btw.

Agreed!
ben clymer presents feels like vintage talking watches so good
Man, I have been hoping for this episode for a while now! Thanks for doing it
Great episode. More of this!
Love it...this is a talking watches episode. Did they talking about the Cartier Tank on his wrist or did I miss it?

Yes. 34 min in.
REALLY loved this one! my favourite yet!
Fantastic episode, enjoyed every second of it 👍🏼😊
This woulda been a cool talking watches. Really enjoyed listening to Keith, he just got himself a new fan.
Brilliant episode. Well done. 🎉
I love how Ben throws in he is a novice golfer at a 6 handicap. I'm a 13 handicap, and a 6 might as well be on Tour. That is impressive and I wouldn't say novice. Modest.

I didn't know Ben played golf. But Keith pays way too many people Ben Hogan didn't even have a caddy.

6 hdcp is very far from a novice. Not sure of Ben is trying to be modest, or is playing some other sport. 😂
One of your best ever episodes
Awesome episode. Go Dawgs!!
Lovely Episode
Ben Clymer/John Mayer interviews also got me into watches.
Awesome but please add timestamp! You have them in the article/podcast link so why not add them on youtube
What a great interview, I am not a golf person and I knew nothing about Keith, lovely humble guy. The only downside was seeing all those crowns hitting on cases...
We need the whole lineup!
My new favorite talking watches!
What a legend
I’d want the date of my PGA Tour win on it rather than the day I watched a YT video 😂
Great discussion and I loved Keith’s thoughts on having a couple different sets of clubs for different intentions. Cool vs competitive! Ben: please lose the microphones. It is so distracting. Thanks for making great content.
Justin Thomas needs to be up next!! Guy has a hell of a collection.
Cool
6 handicap and own a ton of cool watches.... geeze Clymer
A Serpico y Laino co-branded watch, like the Patek 2526 shown is a grail for me as a Venezuelan, is a reminder of a rich oil past.

There’s one in the Theo and Harris store, gold oyster
Please do a talking watches with Keith! That would be awesome.
Love this series and golf, but I wonder if the mics with wires are intentional.
Corded Mics? Vintage? Nice.
Why not clip on mics?
Not first!
I love / hate the refs number dropping... It's snobbish and nerdish... I get it I get it. Very cool Patek!
Wtf is a padek..
Tiger expected to win Everytime. He said he never played for second place.

Ben Hogan didn't even have a caddy.
I’d gladly trade my circle T putter for any of his watches 🤣🤣
alternative title "How Keith sold Ben a John"
Why do ALL watch guys pronounce Patek two different ways? Sometimes in the same sentence??? This has been driving me in insane for awhile now. Can I get some clarity fam?
So, why not the blue dial WG. This has puzzled me ever since. It could just be that one sentence from John, “to a slightly lesser extent, the midnight blue dial”… take any other watch brand, Patek, AP, VC for example and it’s the steel/WG blue dial virtually always… and it’s more wearable in more situations.
massive mic’s are unnecessary and distracting
Yo wait, Ben is a 6 hdc and acting like he's a "mid" handicapper?!

I didn't even know he played golf you'd have thought it would have come up sometime. Now that he's a multi millionaire he's got the money & time to practice.
Keith. You need a Lange 1815 up down in your life
cringe at all of his watches rubbing up against each other in his watch roll...get one with dividers, son.
Lol. A six hdcp is not a novice. If you’re a 6 hdcp, and not shot shaping, that’s savant behavior.
Cashmere , it's winning time !
Got my dad a black dial datejust when he came to visit me.. He said put in my bag, no thank you, no nothing. Parents sometimes don't deserve anything
