As most people would be aware, Hodinkee is leaving the watch sales arena and going "back to basics" of being a media platform.

The close-out sale is now live on the Hodinkee shop and Crown & Caliber for the folks interested. Ironically for us, only one TAG on offer.

Hmmm, not much of a sale. At best, looks like maybe 10% off their regular prices, which weren't really all that great to begin with.

I agree, not the blowout sale I was expecting.

The only piece that I found interesting was the salmon Hodinkee x Zenith chronomaster at $8000.

There’s this here:

But I’m not even sure whether this isn’t the normal price when you order it as a print-on-demand book (?)

Their sale started with some really low prices but it seems they adjusted.

However, there are some crazy deals on their straps which are very nice. The orange strap I have on my Chronotempvs Carrera is from Hodinkee, and only cost $25 at their fire sale price

I like the lifestyle magazine comparison. The nonsense writing about the Skeleton Monaco last year was a bit too Cosmo for me

In fairness I’ll still read anything by James Stacey & will watch their Talking Watches (when not some BasketBall player or Rapper with only AP, Pateks & Daytonas).

We sell these watches, but no one tells us what to write - cos we only write good things anyway!
