The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep. 194: A Conversation with Ben Clymer, Founder of Hodinkee

This week on the podcast, Blake Buettner, Zach Weiss, and Blake Malin are joined by Hodinkee’s Ben Clymer for a wide ranging discussion reflecting on a long, shared history in the watch media landscape. Ben is the founder and Executive Chairman of Hodinkee, and in the thirteen years since he started the website, it’s grown into a leading resource for all things watches, a one-stop retail shop for new, vintage, and pre-owned watches, and a whole lot more. As Worn & Wound celebrates its tenth anniversary, it was a great time to sit down with Ben and talk about how the watch world has changed over the last decade, and how far both Worn & Wound and Hodinkee have come. This is a great conversation that you won’t want to miss if you’re a regular reader of either site. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast — now available on all major platforms including iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and more.
