- Though he's only recently been lionized as a major collector and watch enthusiast on social media, Ed Sheeran has been a passionate collector for over a decade. I've had the pleasure of getting to know him over the years, both through our shared love of writing music and for collecting, and I'm so glad he agreed to sit down with me for an episode of Talking Watches.
This is Talking Watches with the one and only Ed Sheeran, hosted by yours truly. I hope you enjoy watching this conversation as much as I enjoyed being a part of it. - John Mayer

John Mayer needs to be a full time host!!
He listens, he asks meaningful questions, he tells interesting anecdotes, it was 50-50…damn who knew John Mayer could be a great host.
"If you've never been cool - then you've kinda
“Doing something you love is more regenerative than resting” is the best quote to come out of this conversation. Great perspective and such a great use of words to describe a simple concept that is hard to put into words!
Keeping rolling papers and flower in a Patek Philippe box is top tier class.
Had high hopes for this episode... it exceeded expectations.
John Mayer needs to do a series of these this all of his obsessions. Guitars, Amps, Pedals, Mics, Pre's, Outboard Gear, Knives. His collectors mind is fascinating and to see him do this with a bunch of people over a bunch of different topics would be increidble. Would be so cool to combine the different world of collectors.
I’m not a watch guy I’m just here because I’ll watch any Mayer interview. Not only does this video make me want to go out today and start collecting watches, but also makes me want to go listen to Ed again. What a great lovely guy.
What an Incredible video! The Passion is exploding of my screen! amazing!
“If you’ve never been cool, you’ve always been cool”. Even when John Mayer isn’t songwriting, he’s songwriting
Ed really is a class act. The simple mention of sadness at seeing his custom Tudor’s up for sale during the pandemic shows an empathy I imagine is missing for most at his level of celebrity.
I don’t listen to Ed Sheeran, but whenever I hear the guy in interviews I just love him so much. He seems like such an honest to god grounded guy and an example of a human being that I wish to be! You go Ed!
“The wait is part of the ownership.” John is SUCH a master story teller. I could listen to him talk forever. He is the coolest.
The fact that they both wore the matching Spider-man watches when Ed opened for John back in September is hysterical and amazing. The ending of this video literally shows the moment these guys double dared each other with the “I’ll get one if you get one” on a $250k watch. This entire video is amazing.
Everything about this is perfect: the behind the scenes, the music (which is so John, but without showing off it’s John), the knowledge, the production value, the James Stacey cameo, the genuine love and respect between John and Ed. What a video 👏 👏 👏
John is an underrated interviewer. His enthusiasm for watches is very easy to spot, but how he's able to coax these little stories out of Ed about his watches was very gratifying and created an almost fly-on-the-wall feeling for I imagine most of us on this side of the screen. Great video, thank you Hodinkee for bringing it to us fans & enthusiasts.
The "Jamal" that Ed Sheeran mentions was Jamal Edwards, who inarguably is the most important person you've never heard of in modern British music. All someone who did brilliant work in his community, who amplified authentic artistic voices, and helped make the world that much better. Really glad Sheeran remembers him so positively.
The way john mayer talks is unreal. This man has god-given talent at talking, what a flow, natural, choice of words, tonality, confidence and friendliness and honesty lol.
Mayer is so impressive. IMO, Mayer is the most underrated guitarist of all time and he is SO knowledgeable about this addictive hobby :)
This was PERFECT! Thank you Ed for finally letting us in! Thank you John for being the person to do this!
