Talking Watches With Jason Singer

[ams]

Jason Singer is the reason why vintage watches are hard to find nowadays.

Lol...his dog is lying their like “oh man here he goes talking about his watch collection again...you know how many times I have heard about this Rolex 8171...take me for a walk please”🤣

[adamhfriedman]

I heard his dog also has a Puptek Phillipe.

This guy has to be one of the most legit collector so far in this Talking Watches series.

Hey Ben, you should consider doing a follow up episode with Jason. He says at the end that his collection is always changing. Would love to see how it looks now

An episode 2 would be great to see what Jason has done lately!

This and the Jean-Claude Biver one is of my favourite Talking Watches segments. I admire his deep knowledge & passion of vintage watches and love that he put himself through med school selling/trading watches. The rest of us can cry at the missed opportunity when there were "gobs and gobs" of quality vintage watches available in North America in the 80's.

Service costs on this collection has got to be nuts!!

Patek has some of the best advertising EVER in the history of watches, imo. For me, the first thing I thought of at 12:42 was the slogan, "You never actually own a Patek Philippe, you merely look after it for the next generation.” Lucky son.

Maybe if I can save some funds in the future, i can bid on some of his watches if they ever come up for sale.. Epic collection

Easily 8 figures on the table. The 1463, 2499's, and the sets could easily get the whole collection in the 8 figures.

I've seen this video a few times and it is still one of my very favorites of all time. The Dr. just can't hide his passion for all those beautiful watches and I find that infectious.

[JeanClaudeVanDabs]

The balls on this guy to not be wearing a watch in this video.

11:00 - "$200-$300" daytona in the 80's. someone built a time machine stat!

[sanjursan]

I bought a stainless Daytona, new, in 1972 for $250, and sold it to a pawn shop in 1978 for $200. It was the model without screw-down lugs on the chrono actuators. Sigh. In 1986 I passed up a 1962 berlinetta lusso for $38K. Sigh. No one asks me for investment advice.

[wanderfwd]

i dont get how these dudes remember all the model numbers, "is that the R2D2?" Im like wut?

[mbirth]

None of the watches was talking … I feel cheated.

[tipoomaster]

One of the best ones, definitely knew his stuff and respected them.

[timemoney]

I watch this episode again 6 years later with a different eye on vintage classics ( mainly sport vintage watches before ). This is definitely a reference video in watch collection. Pure joy.

[allwaysgone]

I think a follow up of this video would be great. I enjoy this guy's commentary.

[renovarwwis]

wow a truly magnificent collection and an articulate collector.
Thanks Hodinkee for showing us this dream collection.
