Talking Watches With Jimmy O. Yang, Comedian, Writer, And 'Silicon Valley' Star

I first became aware of Jimmy O. Yang because of his role on Silicon Valley as Jian-Yang, a character whose occasionally menacing, always scene-stealing deadpan made the HBO series a must-watch comedy. From there, the Hong Kong-born actor, comic, and writer went on to the silver screen (Crazy Rich Asians), an Amazon stand-up special (Good Deal), a sitcom opposite Steve Carell and John Malkovich (Space Force), and most recently, a starring role in the holiday-season rom-com Love Hard.

Yang's is an earnest collection, one many readers will relate to. I know I did. The only difference is that while many of us have let our first watches slip away, Yang has managed to hang onto his earliest pieces, including an anime tribute to Dragon Ball Z from his Hong Kong childhood. Join us for the watches and stay for the laughs. This is your Talking Watches with Jimmy O. Yang.

My man brought a Dragon Ball Z & Marc Jacobs along with everything else.
He gets it! Love seeing the progression in collecting. Wish more guests would bring their stuff they think nobody wants to see. That’s the stuff I crave to see most!
Great collection & great video!

The episodes are getting better, no more 10000 shiny unaffordable Rolex or Richard Mille. Just beautiful journey of watches and that GMT looks so killer.

LOVE THIS, no pretentiousness, this is what we want, not try hards

[garman]

A watch enthusiast who loves his watches because they have personal meaning. Not because they're good investments or high status. So amazing.

Never in a million years did I think I would be watching Talking watches with Jian-Yang from Silicon Valley 😂😂🤣🤣🤣

There's something that fascinates me from this show. It's the fact that although the vast majority of people might share the same watch, with a same reference number, etc... each person ends up having a different intricate story. I don't know, seems pretty stupid, but it's these small things that make this world so fascinating.

Jimmy Actually made a good point about using a watch to check the time. Just one look and you're done. With a phone, the screen just sucks you in and you're taken out of the moment.

"I dont have any idea, just a lot of buttons" This was the most relatable line in any talking watches

[Superdada]

Huge fan of Jimmy ever since the show Silicon Valley. Even though he didn’t have a ton of lines he killed it each scene.

This is a great episode. I didn't know Jimmy Yang, but his down-to-Earth style and demeanor - now I like this guy! His watch collection is so honest and attainable. Glad to NOT see a solid gold AP Royal Oak or some green-dialed 44mm steel sports watch. This is a REAL collection and that makes this episode special.

'I don't wanna reach into my phone every time I wanna check the time and then end up checking 5 apps on top...' This REALLY resonated with me!

[CokeWithIceAndLemon]

Nothing beats Talking Watches, i mean nothing on YouTube can come close, just got in from work saw the notification instant smile!

[ithinkigotworms]

Jimmy is such an badass, what a cool collection. Feels like a collection I’d have at an achievable level, fun and classy.

As someone whose family is also from Hong Kong, I can also attest that all my uncles have a two-toned Datejust. It's such an iconically HK thing hahah

[raka]

Steve Carell what a legend!! Loved this episode, Jimmy's the man.

[sylinmino]

That Rowing Blazers Seiko is so nice! Very personal, unique watch with a lot of personality coupled with a very solid build!

[benpark]

I really liked this episode. It really comes to tell that collecting is not always about who has the most expensive watches.

[jake]

This episode was really great. Jimmy is genuinely hilarious and relatable, his joke about his G Shock running for 2 years made me laugh out loud.

[petterlindberg]

Damn, what an amazing guy, and such a personal collection! One of the best talking watches episodes!

[reconteam]

I absolutely LOVE this collection. A collection from the heart, not for prestige or business.
