Matt Farah is a Big Watch Nerd

Had a chance to sit down with Matt Farah to check out some of his interesting pieces! What do you think about these customized watches?

Very cool to see you guys talking in the The Smoking Tire podcast booth. Great talk.

·

Great interview. Love the mods, so creative and I like the stories behind them. 👍

·

I’m not fan of the guy… dunno why ?! I’m trying to see the pull for the guys content… I just don’t understand it…

Who’s this @Max guy ?!!

😁🤣

Agreed. Of all the car YouTubers, he’s the one I dislike most. Even his “professional” stuff and R&T isn’t very interesting.

Sorry it’s a bit tasteless …

I enjoy his videos. Some of his modded cars are just flat out cool.

Customization?

Oh well, there goes the value.

·

I have to admit never heard of him till now.

·

This was quite hard to watch. Felt very rushed but admittedly I'm quite glad it was. Him and I probably wouldn't be friends. But that's okay, I don't need to like him.

·
Max

He told me he had 45+ watches, that'd be a long one 😂

We’ve got time Max 😉 pun intended

·

I like Matt. I like listening to his stories. I first learned of him through the channel VinWiki on YouTube.

·

Fun interview 👍🏾

·

For anyone that didn't know, his dad was president of Ralph Lauren, after running the NYC Macy's store for a while. I haven't seen his stuff for a while but he was doing videos with the Weiss guy and it was rather disconcerting how someone who presented himself as a watch person and had spent a good deal knew so little. Maybe this has changed?

Yay for solid case back though!

Fantastic interview. It seems like these interview a collector episodes are becoming very popular across many watch channels. They are enjoyable and well aligned with this form of digital content distribution. 10/10

·

The video showed two other colour ways in Teal and mint green, however I can't find them on the website. Anybody know why?

All good, cheers for that! I wanted the orange one anyways and this means I don't have to pick 🤣🤣

It was rushed, because they had to meet me at the party to help me set up tables. 😅

He is genuinely enthusiastic about what he does - both cars and watches- and despite how it seems on video, he is really a humble guy. As I said on an upcoming ABTW podcast with Matt and Ariel, I feel lucky that Matt is a cool guy because of how much we have to talk to each other during this process.

It was also his idea to raise a bunch of money and get people to give blood, and hopefully we saved a life or two in the process.

Come to a future event (Intersect ATL in March or Intersect LA in November). You'll get to meet him and the team and I am sure you'll change your mind.

I hope so … on his podcasts he comes across pompous … could be me… maybe I’ll come meet this so called Matt eventually …

Yeah I listened to his interview on the Deep Track and that's exactly the vibe he was giving.

such a good watch @Max & Cullen! This guy definitely knows what he's talking about. Congrats on the Canyon edition 💪

I can see a Seamaster Ultra Deep Summer Blue in Matt's collection with the textured dials too!
