Following a similar format, Wednesday kicked off with a very entertaining chat between Ben and past Talking Watches guest and Emmy winning comedian and host Ronny Chieng. Ronny brought along a bag of watches, including an array of vintage Omega that he inherited from his father. Next up on an action packed day, Ben and James had an enlightening chat with the one and only Alton Brown. Known for his work in the world of food and gastronomy, Alton is a watch enthusiast that did an episode of Talking Watches in 2017 and chatted with a New York audience at H 10 back in 2018.
For the third chat of the day we were delighted to have Malaika host the new CEO of the Americas for Audemars Piguet, Ginny Wright. The two talk about women in the watch world and how AP approaches women enthusiasts in a market that largely caters to a male audience.
Finally, to close out an amazing day of chats, clothing designer Todd Snyder had an awesome chat with Mark and Ben about working with J. Crew, how Todd approached starting his own brand, his thoughts on the realities of menswear, and a whole lot more.
Thanks again to all who attended the first three days of the UBS House of Craft – stay tuned to Hodinkee for the videos of all these amazing conversations.
