2+1 Recommended by LOFT: Comedians Special
Daniel PintoIn this edition, we highlight the accounts of some of the world's most famous comedians, who have celebrated their success with watches, watches, and more watches. One sporty and robust, another with a love of exotic stones, these figures' collections are a true reflection of their personalities, reflected daily on their active Instagram accounts.
1. Joe Rogan
At this point, it's hard to tell if Rogan is a comedian with a podcast, or a podcaster who performs comedy. His podcast , "JRE," is so successful that many have begun to recognize him by the watches he wears on the show, where the watch sits on a desk, taking center stage. Additionally, his appearances in the UFC Octagon always bring a new purchase, and through his endless parade of Submariners, Diver 300s, and Speedmasters, we've gotten a sense of the type of collector Rogan is: simple, sporty, and rugged. A guy anyone would want to be friends with.

2. Kevin Hart
Hollywood star Kevin Hart emerged with his stand-up routines, filling stadiums and making a generation of millennials laugh. After his leap to the big screen, and perhaps a little self-conscious about his short stature, we saw how Hart slowly acquired pieces from Audemars Piguet and Patek, starting with simple watches and then delving deeper into limited editions and one-of-a-kind pieces. Today, rainbow diamond dials and grand complications are the order of the day on his social media, and Kevin's flamboyant, mocking personality radiates from his budding collection.

3. COMEDY DISTRICT
Comedy District is like the Audible version of your favorite book. It distills the best clips from the stand-up comics' most prominent artists and puts them all together in a single feed, ready to be devoured in your spare time (probably at work, too). The best part is that many of the videos come with subtitles, so you can watch them silently and still understand them even if you struggle with the accents and slang they often use. You can connect your phone to your smart TV and replace your movie night with a laugh-a-thon that's sure to finally get those abs in shape.
