Talking Watches With Adam Levine

You can tell that Adam Levine - whose band, Maroon 5, has won several Billboard Awards, even more American Music Awards, and a few Grammys - has been around the watch collecting world by all that he's seen, owned, and in some cases, sold. In many ways, Adam is an old-school watch collector - buying what he loves and not caring what other people think. He's owned everything someone "should," and now, his collection is simply full of things he loves. And that's the best kind of watch collection.

Adam mentioned John Mayer giving Maroon 5 a big break as an opener: As a freshman in high school, I saw them open for John at the RPI Fieldhouse in Troy, NY (a hockey rink, basically). I think it was 2001 or 2002. That performance made me a fan. I love how their cross-section of interests, like watch collecting, has evolved since then. They've gone from playing to a few hundred people on the same bill to owning Rainbow Daytonas and becoming music legends of our time. So incredibly cool.

@@TimEckel A bit of a low blow considering the dude clearly doesn’t care and it’s not that serious to him.

Interesting perspective, I actually enjoyed this video. Adam Levine is still learning and exploring his love for watches. I don't think he needs to be an expert. He is learning about them, and creating memories with them. Sometimes we have to take a step back and just remember that we all have to start somewhere. If he loves watches thats enough. Love to see a follow up video with him down the road. Lots of credit to Ben, and how he respected Adam and encouraged him.

Cool to hear it from Adams mouth. Keep up the hustle Hodinkee!

Think it’s cool that not everyone has to be a mega knowledgeable watch collector to still show an interest in watches and have a conversation with Ben. Ben here adapts to Adam’s collection and level of knowledge to create good conversation and content. I knew Adam meant Date Just when he said it, (suspect Ben knew also) not an uncommon mistake, who cares. The Patek is amazing! Keep the content coming chaps!

@MrVorpalsword 9 месяцев назад

Being English it all just sounded a bit like mumble mumble to me!

@m27gio 7 месяцев назад

Totally agree. Honestly at Adam’s wealth level it’s cool he’s taken somewhat of a technical interest at all and attached some meaning to certain pieces. He could just buy whatever and know nothing. People have different hobbies and knowledge isn’t a pre-requisite of owning nice pieces. With that said it’s a little annoying/prototypical for someone to JUST go for Rolexes when there are tons of other brands

I know he can be a bit arrogant, but just play along and give him whatever respect and admiration to get the bloody yes of him. Preferably an hour long, and with Ben ofc. Maybe do it in his garage as well. The last one will work on Hammond too. But whatever you do, don't play any music by Geneis!
