  • 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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    @nicholaspuleo8577 5 месяцев назад +4

    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.

    • @juniorjohnson5961
      @juniorjohnson5961 5 месяцев назад

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

    • @jdawgl33
      @jdawgl33 4 месяца назад

      6 hdcp is very far from a novice. Not sure of Ben is trying to be modest, or is playing some other sport. 😂

    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.

    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?

    @briers9 5 месяцев назад

    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.

      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.
