Our guest today is editor and writer Jay Fielden. Jay is a media industry veteran, having spent time at The New Yorker, Vogue, and Men’s Vogue, Town & Country, and Esquire. He’s also contributed to Hodinkee a few times over the years.
We invited Jay on to talk more about his recent excellent piece, “The Strange Journey of John Lennon's Stolen Patek Philippe Watch,” which appeared in the June 24 issue of The New Yorker. It’s the most detailed account yet of the “Lennon 2499" that has remained mostly a mystery for decades.
Also joining for the conversation is our own Ben Clymer.
