The Collector’s Edition With Kevin Hart | HODINKEE Radio | HODINKEE

- HODINKEE Radio presents The Collector’s Edition hosted by founder Ben Clymer. This series provides listeners with an inside look at the art of collecting and what it means to be an enthusiast. The conversation will cover watches, of course. But it won't stop there. For this episode, we are thrilled to sit down with comedian, actor, producer, and serial entrepreneur Kevin Hart.
If it seems like Hart is everywhere all the time, that's because he is - from the current "Reality Check" stand-up tour and the big screen in hits like Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and The Secret Life of Pets to television ads for the likes of DraftKings and JPMorgan Chase. On top of that, he also runs a media company called HartBeat Productions. And on top of that - and what brings us here today - he's also a legit watch enthusiast.

Nice to see Ben back. He should do all of the significant talking watches episodes. It’s only fitting.
Hiw would anyone get experience with top guests?
The guy owns the business he doesn’t want to do all the work too
@@jimbojimbo6873 Agreed but having conversations with interesting people about watches is something he seems to enjoy. To a lot of old Hondinkee fans he is still the face of the company and if you read the comments, most of those fans are not too keen on the new corporate approach.
Sometimes it feels like a lot of celebrities are just anointed with watch knowledge from day one but it's refreshing to see that Kevin came into the hobby the same we all did, just by being interested in time and had the same journey as us. Start off with fashion watches, get some 'well known' pieces, get burned on vintage and eventually figure out what works for us in our day-to-day. For one of the world's best known collectors, that was brilliant to hear.
Ben is absolutely brilliant at these interviews too. Hopefully this lends itself to more of these and we can get Mark Wahlberg, Jackie Chan and Corey Gamble on with their full collections.
Jackie Chan has a collection???
@@ElxVEVO did you watch the video? Hart talks about it. Says that Chan is a big watch guy.
"Annointed with watch knowledge from day one." What? It's either you care about it enough to learn it or you don't get it at all. No one comes out just knowing about all watches. Plus, a lot of people nowadays are only into watches because they believe it is the "it" thing to do.
I remember going to a hodinkee meet-up where all that was there were watch nerds like myself. Men and women alike. I loved it! Ben used to bring in some of his personal pieces and talk about it with all of us. It was a great day and age. Now, it has become a circus. There are people in this watch game who don't even care about watches for the beauty of the timepieces. They just care about what they can sell it for. It's a scarier world. But, as the saying goes, "you just have to roll with the punches" and keep it going.
I believe him and Yeoh are RM ambassadors
@@Kcseales I think they mean a lot of celebrities act like they got into watches knowing everything there is to know about collecting. Without telling the story about "learning" the watch collecting hobby.
Ben should be doing all these talking watches. From the biggest Celebrity to the smallest collector
Why?

Awesome to see Kevin Hart here! Love his watches and glad to see Ben doing the interview!
His 1 of 40 platinum skeleton has daily wear scratches. Salute!
This is spectacular! Always terrific to see Ben sharing his profound affinity for watches with his guests! The passion is utterly incredible and infectious!
Big Spiderman meme vibe here
Where are your videos @crown & caliber ? BRING BACK HIDDEN GEMS
Where are all the crown and caliber videos!?
Calm down mate
We need to see more Ben interviews.
This two guys couldn't be any more different even if one of them was an extraterrestrial, yet they can get together, find common ground and bond around watches. And then people ask why do we love this hobby.
Newfound respect for Kevin! Collecting watches for all the right reasons.
Love this. We get to see these watches in photos all the time, but it’s so cool to hear the journey behind the collector.
Regardless of the fame and the money Kevin Hart is always so chilled, humble and funny. I love how he broke into a sketch and had to restrain himself. He really knows that tomorrow isn't promised and life is fragile.
Kevin seems like a nice guy. His take on watches is funny. "Nobody knew what watch I was wearing" is the basic thesis of why he gets into serious watches... completely opposite from most collectors who would tell you to buy what you like and buy for yourself instead of trying to fit into a club. Kevin is so big now he could probably make invicta cool to a group of people but he's still trying to fit in. Honestly interesting.
It's an interesting commentary on the watch world in general. Why is a watch desirable and how subjective that is.
Value and cost are two very different things.
@Richard Lloyd yes. Also on the idea of investments. I think that started as a way to justify these purchases to significant others and now seems to be the mantra of so many... I'd love if Kevin just said, "I'm rich and I like buying cool stuff"
@@1989DJJD it would be more honest
Why seems like a nice guy? 🤔
Everybody into watches are trying to fit in (in my opinion). It is just a matter of what ballpark you are playing in. Some really high end watches may not be known by the average person (giving the illusion we do not care about fitting in) but at that point you are playing ball with the group who "when you know, you know" as Kevin said it.
Man I love all talking watches videos, I always wait for them and search to see if any new ones are out…Kevin is the man always cracks me up
"you start to make more money, your taste in watches change" facts!
Not necessarily a good thing tho.
Respect to Kevin for being straight up honest. "I'm the AP spokesperson, which is awesome, but it's hard to not be able to wear other brands that I like too." Meanwhile, Floyd mayweather said, "Hublot is the greatest watch brand in the world..." So many "influencers" and artists just say things because they are paid to do so.
I wonder if AP is going to drop his pay now.
To be honest, I don't understand why anyone would care what Floyd Mayweather thinks about watch brands.
Super interesting, I hope there will be part 2 after his AP contract goes off so he can show and talk about rest of his collection.
“Once you are in it, you are in it, there’s no way to get out of it” -Hart on the watch thing
I bet now everyone is going to start calling the Tourbillon a “Tourb”…😂
Newflash, I’ve known it as that for at least 15years.
Great interview and as always Kevin is well spoken! I echo the others here in wishing for a JayZ sit-down
Hes transparent about his collecting. This is a side of watch collecting, not one I particularly like but it is what it is. Wear them in good health.
Great interview. Hoping for a Part 2 where we can actually see some of the watches
Great! Finally a new Talking watches episode 🎉
I would really really love to see Jay Z on TW! He was collecting watches way before any other significant pop culture personalities were flashing them. I remember his Hublot phase, when he obsessed over AP, down to his blue sapphire RM. He never followed the pack and I bet he’s very well versed into the significance of the houses and references he selects. Ben - make it happen!
down to earth guy, does everything with absolute passion and class 🙇♂
We need a Collection video with Kevin!
So GREAT to see Ben back! Thank you! Excellent interview with Kevin Hart! Such a clear appreciation of watches between both of them.
Finally!!! This is another win for hodinkee! Now we just need Mark Wahlberg and Ellen!
Mark got some naughty watches
Ellen lol
Jayz
Yeah, they should all start with a line of blow, mandatory!
Appreciate the passion of Kevin and I think he's an humble guy. Need another episode with hands on his watches.
An interviewers dream . Interesting , knowledgeable, articulate , funny (obviously) and makes the effort. Stunning collection, I hope he enjoys them all 👍
Great to see Ben back. For an AP ad, this was excellent!
“The watch sets the tone” 😊
"take your time" - great advice by KH - needed this last year :) - great episode.
Kevin is funny, well thought out, enthusiastic, and full of taste.
Fun interview 👍
Such an incredible interview! Great job Kevin and Ben!
Superb! Good to see Ben back with a bang!
Favourite part of the video is where we see the diverse group of watch friends. I also like that Kevin’s focus is on what the Watch means to him or why he got it rather than it’s value or the bling. Cool dude.
Awesome job Ben. Class act Kevin.
I got to meet him and size his Patek 5650G a few years back. He is a super nice and humble guys despite his monumental success...also the watch was incredible!
How did you size his like $800,000 dollar watch
@@Roadglide86 very slowly because you had to cut sections off since it was a rubber strap. The guys with him joked about not cutting it too short and making it unwearable...definitely one of the more nerve-wracking things I've done in my career. 😂
Been waiting for this one for a long time. Really glad this interview happened.
Kevin is a class act. Great interview.👏👏
Great interview! Kevin is the man when it comes to watches ! And comedy !
So glad you spotlighted Kevin Hart. I’m a much bigger fan of him now more than before. Now you’ve got to get Mark Wahlberg and Jackie Chan on the show!
Turbs for everyday! Love Kevin. A real watch fan❤❤❤
Talking about John Mayer, we need a Part III with him!
Great episode! Kevin is an icon in the world of watches.
I enjoy this episode so much, thank you.
already know this gonna be great! wasnt expecting this at all but i thank hodinkee for it =)
Nice to see a different side of Kevin Hart. What a great conversation!
Beautifully done Ben! I remember when I saw your first episode in Hodinkee; I was looking for a source of horology show then I found you talking to John Meyer.... This was in 2015 year I do believe. Kudos!
First talking watches without actually watches on the table. Watched it anyways, great conversation guys, really enjoyed it, thanks for that 😊🙏🏻
It is not Talking Watches.
@@baroh2413 felt like it … not complaining at all mate 😉
What a great episode. Among the best.👌👌
A great episode and clearly one of the heaviest collectors going.
Kev is such a cool guy, and he's from Philly! Great interview!
Been waiting for this for so long!
Love Kevin, Great interview Ben 👌🏾
Been waiting for this one for so long! Woop
Nobody does this better than BC. Respect.
Wow, great interview! Lots of gems!!
Dream come true! Superb interview however we must see the collection.
Fantastic interview, great content!! Kevin Hart has got a crazy collection, one only can dream of
True enthusiast, great interview!
Only 23 minutes! Damn, I wanted more!
Rad content here, thanks! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see one of these with Jackie Chan, he's got such great energy and it would be a hoot.
Thank you Ben and team!
ABOUT TO BE TIME, love it
Fantastic episode 👏
Yessss!!!
Kevin Hart is a baller. Also his short Netflix show with Wesley Snipes is so good.
Baller? It's 2023 bro. 😂
When the clock strikes 10:10, the black panther is ready to play lmao
crazy how watches can bring people together from all different walks of life
Kevin didn’t need to do this…but the fact that he did this shows just how cool watches are!
More of this please and thanks
Everyone nowadays always talks about collecting watches because of milestone purchases, but once in a while I would like to hear: hey I got that watch because I love the way it looks or the features.
21:28 -- Love this advice
This was so good. Just so so good.
Legendary episode
Great conversation!
Wow Kevin Hart this is Huge!!! Now we need Mark Wahlberg.
And Amy Schumer! And then Dane cook!
That was awesome. Didn't realize he was such a watch head.
We need to see a Talking Watches with Kevin.
I don't know the exact ref, but, I noticed Kevin Hart was the first person I saw with the rose gold Daytona Cosmograph with black ceramic bezel and brown dial with the Arabic numerals. That was one of my favorites as the colors look so warm and rich and is unique for a Daytona.
Aight now we NEED Talking Watches with Jackie Chan next
One of the best dink videos ever 👏
Great interview guys🍺👏
MORE OF THIS!
Good interview and good chat. Shame Kevin couldn't look at him in the eye when he shook his hand at the end. Everything felt legitimate until that point.
“Is that steel?”
“Nah, it’s platinum”
Wish i knew you guys were coming to foxwoods 😢
I don't admire watch "collectors" that wear them if they pay you for it. But this is me....
I admire Kevin.
Need one of these with Jackie Chan now.
I’ll be pleasantly surprised if I see anything other than AP, PP or Rolex. 😂
Hes only allowed to talk about AP 😂 easy problem to have though lol
Super!! And Ben is back.
We need a watch collection from kevin
Awesome!
LETZZZ GOOOO KEVIN AND HODINKEE
The unicorn episode we have been waiting for❤
Fantastic feature, I would love to see another one with Kevin and a selection of his watches.
Amazing
I am a collector. I have a casio duro. It sets the tone
When Jackie Chan collection? Please, we're dying out here.
