It was getting boring those shows with millionaires talking “Rolex, Patek, Rolex, Patek, …” Now we are talking about genuine watch collecting. People who collect because like watches, not just because social status.
Wow, wow, wow! I think Hodinkee just birthed the "No Reservations" for watches. Amazing first episode and incredibly hosted by Cole. I can't wait to see where this series goes.
Cole Pennington represents the best of what Hodinkee has evolved into. He's knowledgeable without coming off as pretentious. It's really refreshing to see. I can't wait to see what he does in the next episode.
Cole, you just entered the stage of great travel / lifestyle show hosts. I enjoyed this show. It almost felt like we got Anthony Bourdain back - as a watch show host. Almost. Almost is quite good. Keep it up. You got this.
Excellent, interesting mini documentary. This new series has the potential to be the best Hodinkee ever made. Looking forward to the next on pilot’s watches. Congrats !
Man, Hondinkee is something else, how did I just get into this rabbit hole of a channel, who would've thought Seiko has such a special connection to Thailand, next Thailand trip gonna go brrraazyyy
I can already tell this show will go up to legendary status and even surpass Talking Watches. It shows us that there's more of us out there on a worldwide scale. What a great idea!
Absolutely brilliant! This is exactly what I would expect from Hodinkee - bringing a niche segment of a brand's history to the masses. You've nailed all your goals for this series. Piquing people's interest, shining light on the history of watches, and delivering it in an entertaining package. Keep up the great work! - N
I think this series will be my most favorite of the productions from Hodinkee. The host exhibit an admirable combination of enthusiasm and kindness. I’m excited to see more of this!
Thank you Hodinkee! Exactly what I was hoping for and so much more in this first episode. I really hope that this series remains authentic - a balance of budget and luxury watches, devoid of Rolex-heavy content. Thank you, again, for a fantastic first episode.
I own 3 samurai divers,1 sumo diver, 1 Seiko Hulk,1 cocktail time Presage(My wife picked that one). This video was excellent. Many of those Thai watches would sell in the U.S. without a problem especially the yellows. There are Grand Seiko boutiques in the U.S. but I have not seen just Seiko boutiques has any one else seen one ?
One of the best videos from Hodinkee in a while, really loved this one. Made me start looking for a monster, I've never been a big fan but that SKX779 looks great
Absolutely love this series, can’t wait for the next one. Actually a trip to Thailand for the end of the year is already in the making, I’ll add some Seiko spotting to the plan.
I very rarely, if ever, comment on a RUclips video of any kind. As a lover of watches and video production values, I felt compelled to make an exception to that rule. Excellent video. Excellent content. Keep up the good work!
Nice! The 1st Philippine exclusive limited edition made a cameo. 😊 As a Filipino, hopefully our seiko exclusives get to Thailand's level. We're only up to 2 so far, hehehe.
Love the story behind the Seiko Monster name. I am Absolutely Stoked about this new series! Hodinkee never disappoints with their creative content…Take me with you on the next one !?!
I enjoyed the videos Cole and Nora did with Mark from C&C and really enjoyed this. It was fun to watch and I learned about a slice of the world of watches I had no clue about. Thank you and I am really looking forward to the rest of the series.
Cool, video! Yeah, from another RUclips channel that has the author live or frequent business in Thailand, he always checks out Seiko's and puts out an occasional video when he does. It's been a while, though. And, apparently, Thailand is Seiko's #1 fan base in the world. As such, apparently, they get a lot of Thailand special/limited editions. At least that's what he says. Not just limited to Thailand, but, Seiko as a whole, has A LOT of hidden gems to be discovered, both new and old. So many cool Thailand models, one of my faves is the SKXA65... Although I could do without this candy bar cyclops on that one.

Well said !
Hodinkee stepping it up in 2022!! Netflix level show! As a huge lover of Seiko with over 25 in my collection this episode was 🔥🔥
Excellent episode/series. 👍🏻
Wow, wow, wow! I think Hodinkee just birthed the "No Reservations" for watches. Amazing first episode and incredibly hosted by Cole. I can't wait to see where this series goes.
I'm Thai, and I didn't knew the nickname Monster was born here, Thank you Hodinkee for making such a great show!
Had to go swap out the G-Shock on my wrist for my SKX007 while watching this. This is going to be a great series. Well done, Hodinkee.
XD Also switched out to a diver mid video. Kind of hard not to.
Pardon my ignorance, but never knew this side of Seiko, much less the enthusiasm in Thailand for timepieces! Thanks for the wonderful video.
Great Series and a better direction than only showing 6 or 7 figure watches only. Looking forward to the next episode!

The best 11:27 minutes I’ve spent today. Brilliantly shot, written & presented…congratulations to all involved & looking forward to the next one.
I loved the reason behind this new series, can wait for the next episodes. The production is great as always!!
Holy moly, Cole is setting up the new bar high for everyone else in the watch related media!
Man, Hondinkee is something else, how did I just get into this rabbit hole of a channel, who would've thought Seiko has such a special connection to Thailand, next Thailand trip gonna go brrraazyyy
Loved this, congratulations Cole! Cant wait for more episodes.
Thank you Cole and team for making this happen!
What a great segment, I'd watch an entire show dedicated to smaller docu-series like this.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Well done.
Love the passion of the collectors in Thailand. Great episode!
I absolutely loved this episode and I’m super excited for this series! Grey Nato meets Hodinkee 🔥 ❤️
I can already tell this show will go up to legendary status and even surpass Talking Watches. It shows us that there's more of us out there on a worldwide scale. What a great idea!
My by far favorite series on this channel
Cole, I really enjoy your work and look forward to seeing more of it! You've become my favorite part of Hodinkee.
INCREDIBLE VIDEO. My new favorite series on RUclips
I love this!!!!!! Cole is a huge talent and i hope HODINKEE sees this man’s potential.
Holy cow this is the best thing hodinkee has put out IN YEARS. More of this type of content please!
Oh man this will be an amazing video series! Great job!

Well, thank you for putting my site’s content out there at 4:55.

this was genuinely a fascinating watch. I learned something new today. thank you
Has the watch I just bought in the intro. And the person using it underwater. I instantly love this.
Awesome, awesome, awesome Cole. Unadulterated watch and culture pleasure. More more more
This is fantastic! Really great series. Thanks Cole and Hodinkee
Ya Cole!!! Best Hodinkee person for this job
This is next level content. It's about culture and passion and it is so respectful. Feels like how Bourdain would have covered watches.
One of the best videos from Hodinkee in a while, really loved this one. Made me start looking for a monster, I've never been a big fan but that SKX779 looks great
Hey, Welcome to Thailand!! Did not expected my country to be mentioned in Hodinkee!
Great start if the series! Beautifully filmed and great story telling. Love it!
What an incredible collection and awesome guy. Fantastic show, great job HODINKEE! Can’t wait for the next one.
Finally some new interesting watch content! This is a huge contender to ‘Talking Watches’. Excellent job, Cole!
Absolutely love this series, can’t wait for the next one.
Actually a trip to Thailand for the end of the year is already in the making, I’ll add some Seiko spotting to the plan.
Love the new series! Looking forward to more episodes!
Strapped on my wrist is a newly built seiko watch. You gotta love Seikos man! Great video
I really love the presenter, calming, informative, and seems like a nice and good fella!
It was nice listening to Akashi-san too!
Coles's the man. The most relatable dude in the gang.
Great series. Looking forward to the next one.
The SKXA35 is a yellow version of the SKX and very hard to find. Good luck scoring a mint one for less than $1000.
It’s beautiful. I had to pick up the 011 instead because of that 1k price. The orange is nice, but that yellow dial is just gorgeous.
Amazing series! Can't wait to see more of these.
This is awesome. Thanks for the video Hodinkee team.
Amazing new series. Looking forward to the new episodes that are to come. Good job HODINKEE 👍🏻.
Nothing but the best from hodinkee!
awesome video. Good to see all these Seiko watches.
This should be a great series! Enjoyed this. :)
Keep up the good work Hodinkee! Awesome video!
Love this new series ❤
Such a great show, we need more of these!
Amazing collection of "out of the ordinary" Seikos! Looking forward to the future episodes.
Nice channel an easy to watch relaxing take on timepieces. Just normal watches for normal people- awesome 👏
I still have my 1st gen orange monster sitting on my desk at work in a watch roll to remind me where it all started ! Great episode
I very rarely, if ever, comment on a RUclips video of any kind. As a lover of watches and video production values, I felt compelled to make an exception to that rule. Excellent video. Excellent content. Keep up the good work!
WOW! This is an AMAZING series, I was hoping for a 30 minute long video version. Incredible great job
Greetings from Bangkok and a huge HODINKEE fan!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Can't wait to be back in Thailand- at the first chance!
Nice! The 1st Philippine exclusive limited edition made a cameo. 😊
As a Filipino, hopefully our seiko exclusives get to Thailand's level. We're only up to 2 so far, hehehe.
Wow! I am quite happy that Cole is given his due on Hodinkee, and obviously more power to Seiko!
Really enjoyed this one, looking forward for the next one

Great video! Really looking forward for this series to continue.
What a great idea for a series! Excited for future episodes
