H10Livestream: How I Collect – What Makes Five Watch Lovers Tick

What makes a great collection? We’ll sit down with noted watch collectors Grahame Fowler, Howie Kendrick, Aldis Hodge, Wei Koh, and Kevin Rose to tease this topic out and, hopefully, arrive at a something close to a definitive answer. Each of these gentlemen approaches his watch collecting from a slightly different angle, from Fowler, who loves vintage Rolex; to Hodge, who designs watches in his spare time and brings a creative perspective to the hobby; to Koh, who built a successful magazine around his interest; to Rose, whose passion for watches led him to found Watchville before joining HODINKEE in 2015. While each panel member’s collecting skews toward fine mechanical pieces, there’s considerable variance from collection to collection, leaving plenty of room for their own personalities to come through.
