Ben Clymer (Founder, HODINKEE)
We decided that there was only one way to kick this series off properly: We had to go back to the beginning. Your host Stephen Pulvirent sits down with HODINKEE founder and CEO Ben Clymer to talk about the early days of HODINKEE and to take a little trip down memory lane. Together, they revisit the good ole days and talk about things like how HODINKEE got started, how watch collecting has evolved over the last decade, and that one time Ben was late for a journalism class because he was hanging out at Jay-Z’s house. Enjoy.
