Ben should do this on Hodinkee with his current collection to celebrate 2009-2019 = 10 years Hodinkee !

The purity and rawness of all elements in this episode really makes it one of the best. From the watches, to cars, to furniture , to architecture; this is a hard one to top.

I was more interested in the room they were in then the watches for once!

I want to come back as this guy. Everything about him classy. Amazing house (I'm sure Joaquin Phonenix was pictured with that living room back drop, on an Esquire cover). Beautiful house, amazing cars and watches, and in California. Dream life.

Despite being a bit Rolex heavy, this is a great collection. I also love the car and architecture nods given in this video.

This is a great video. People bash the collection, but the reality is that there are highly coveted cars and watches here, and he wears and drives them! Great to see

A House tour or a garage tour would have been more interesting, the watches are not bad ... but I guess we have had enough Paul Newmans for now.

Personally, I find no joy in Rolexes so these videos get tiresome quickly. Watches with a bit of character and quirkyness, thats what I like.

Super stylish in an nicely understated way, my favorite episode!

This is a sophisticated collection. Outstanding👍🏼

I enjoyed everything about this, from the location, the architecture and decor to the cars and most importantly, the watches.

Absolutely beautiful watches and another great episode!

This was a great conversation. Maybe take it to the next level with Talking Watches with TGV! Best regards, Sir Willie Stroker

Oh man! This guy is living the dream, love his vintage Rolex'es and cars and the house! Just amazing 👌🏻 Super cool guy

Favourite collection so far. Such vibes!

One of the best talking watches for sure

Great cars, superb house, but not terribly exciting watches.

Love his attitude. Taking a Ferrari SWB to the grocery store - wonderful! Those PN Daytonas are so cool too - esp, the Mexico one with the Jubilee bracelet. John

Never heard of Mark Haddawy, but the houses he restores, very worthwhile! Looking at his Rolex collection I found how much better they used to look when the Rolex branding on the dial was smaller. So clean.

Great episode. People that own watches should aspire to what Haddawy has and collects. The guy has taste, period.

This episode wins. So good.

Love his place and his car collection..

I've seen all Talking Watches again and again, and again. I'm a big fan. This is one of the less interesting ones. If you, Hodinkee, want to do that kind of "TW", then go to random collectioners, with less big brands/famous models... With something really special, unique.

Awesome collection, love the patina of the vintage watches and I love The Daytona watches too

I am in love with that gold Daytona 😍

Damn, that's a beautiful house.

Great interview, I just wish it was longer with a few more questions...... he’s a wealth of information and I would have picked his brain for hours...... #SALUTE

What he said about gold being so much nicer the more it ages is so true. Gold looks even more beautiful the more it ages and gathers the micro scratches. I have a 1940’s Cyma in yellow gold and it looks beautiful because of the micro scratches and the oxidisation around the lug joints. If he worked on that house wow, he did a great job, it does look so comfortable and lived in like an old favourite tweed jacket.

I saw this guy cruising up La Brea in his GTO with that unmistakable license plate. I was like “Damn, nice car!” He seemed surprised I noticed, but gave an emphatic “Thanks” with a huge smile. I wondered what guy spends millions on a car. Great to finally learn who he was and glad to know he likes watches!

Love the patina on those watches

How many vintages Rolex owners are these ppl going to interview. MANY watch collectors now are not into the risky hobby of vintage collecting. Do more episodes of ppl who own more attainable modern models.

Mark Haddawy is a great vintage house restorateur and have a great taste in watches and car collecting.

Smart collector. This is a guy that thinks about every acquisition and isn't a compulsive buyer. Very nice collection!

I'm not a gold watch fan personally but that gold and burgundy gmt is undeniably gorgeous.

Wow very nice watches, cars, and home. Perfect place to be😄

Maybe one day we'll find a talking watches with some independents like Halter or Dufour, but for now we are stuck with Rolex and Patek. It seems like every "affluent" person on talking watches is on a Rolex bandwagon and collects for status and for the pure numbers rather than an appreciation of watchmaking as a whole. You cannot teach a man taste, he must seek out for himself.

@richardscott6716

The Bludragon Yeah. Perhaps at the end of the day, acquiring good taste is more about confidence than knowledge itself. To know what you like and why is no easy thing. To see the merits of a watch without regard to its resale value is integral to assembling an interesting collection. There is so much hype and marketing noise out there that most collections have a dreary sameness about them.

Keep up the good work!

this shows you how well marketing works.

Let's face it..the watches are a bit trivial, but the house and cars are stunning...!

I really wish the episodes would be longer. I mean, if you can spend 10mins watching a video about watches, you can easily extend that to 30mins. it's a pleasure and we are talking here (mostly) about vintage watches and not the latest iPhone! I like to hear the extended stories of every watch and how they were acquired. regards. a.

His Submariners with the 3 6 9 dial are stunning.

My favourite episode

this house is absolutely jaw dropping...

My god this guy knows how to collect. I want his cars as much as I want his watches. His car collection is so much more valuable though, monetarily speaking.

Man... beautiful classic cars

Hero level on every sense. This was an amazing interview

Great collection, impressive cars, and can’t go wrong with vintage Rolex.

Probably my least favorite Talking Watches. The wait was long this time, didn’t expect to see just some cliche sport Rolexes and a house tour.

Entertaining and I did enjoy the mix of watches cars and architecture. The GMT is gorgeous. But what really are the stories behind these pieces?

It was really interesting when he moved from talking about that one Rolex to talking about 5 other Rolexes

There is nothing as cool as midcentury architecture.

And this is why I love rolex.

Look at those Daytonas and how the chronograph seconds hand tip floats over a contrasting color ring on the dial. I can't help but feel watch design used to be so much better! I don't think modern watches should be re-editions or remakes, but it could definitely benefit from some of these design principles.

Does Hodinkee only interview people with Rolex?

Beautiful

I loved the series when it started as some people have unique watches or a peculiar way to have started their collection. Lately, it is very much into Rolex and Rolex again. The latest one that I can remember was of some interest was Wei Koh, as he has very different watches. Rolex has some great models but we have seen an awful lot now.

what ref is that sub in the opening sequence?

What's the shirt he's wearing? I see the New Riders of the Purple Sage logo on the side but I don't know the one on the front, and I've never seen a double print like this. Who made it?

Where can I get the a pad like that
