Your Time To Glory

With the advent of genderless clothing, style and aesthetic, it was only a matter of time before one realised it’s, in fact, your personality that is exuded through the pieces you don and nothing else. Take a trip with us through the finest extras of the season that shall uplift your wardrobe seamlessly, one watch at a time.

Jake Gyllenhal

Back in the day, the art of wearing fine jewellery and watches was marked as a way to showcase wealth and honour. Today, however, the act has been elevated to operate as a mode of self-expression. Did you know that you can actually read the mood of a person by analysing their look? Think about it, someone you know, who never misses a beat, is always on time, perhaps had one bad morning and forgot to wear his watch, and his entire day goes for a toss. This isn’t because he wouldn’t know the time (his phone will do the needful) but it’s because he wouldn’t feel like himself without his trusted sidekick -his watch.

While it’s no surprise that a watch is a man’s best friend, it’s the little nuances of the piece that tie in with his character. Some gravitate to certain pieces for the look, others make the purchase as an investment, some use the complication to their advantage and everyone else just buys it because he likes it (and that is okay!).

There is always plenty of speculation about what one should buy. I, on the other hand, just believe that what you truly need to ask yourself is ‘why’ you want a particular watch? Is it for work? Is it the style? Is it the label? Is it an investment? Is it to mark an occasion? Think of your purpose and your watch will literally walk to you. We took the liberty of delving into a few key watches of the season that shall perhaps help you narrow down your wishlist a little further.

Watch
FOR THE OFFICE-GOER

Opt for the unexpected Rolex – Cellini Moonphase. Unlike its bracelet-laden counterparts, the Rolex Cellini Moonphase comes with a quintessential leather strap. The easy and comfortable 39-mm dial sits well on the wrist, adding the perfect touch of dressiness without stealing the whole show. Needless to say, this watch transforms from the boardroom to an evening out with ease, and looks as good with a white shirt as it does with a tuxedo. Add a pair of cufflinks – MONTBLANC’s StarWalker stainless steel ones match perfectly – to finish off with finesse.

FOR THE JET-SETTER

Nothing spells love for the skies quite like an IWC creation. The label’s Pilot watches have been around since 1904, and over the past century and a half they have only gotten better. Their attention to detail has swept the world of aviation and horology by storm, much like their latest creation – the Big Pilot Right-Hander edition. Traditionally, it is believed that watches are to be worn on the left hand, keeping your right arm free from overt care and available for any kind of activity. This leaves out a large chunk of people who are left-handed to begin with; IWC took it upon themselves to address this and crafted a Big Pilot that can be worn on the right hand with the crown resting on the left, changing the movement a full 180-degree to incorporate seamless functioning. Pair this with a leather bracelet to complete the ruggedness and raw energy.

FOR THE CITY-DWELLER

Exude a chill attitude with the ease of a bracelet watch, our pick – Santos de Cartier. The classic square dial has been donned by the century’s dandiest people and now it’s your turn. Available in a plethora of sizes, styles, and finishes, we are crushing on the classic Santos de Cartier as seen on American actor Jake Gyllenhaal. The piece comes with a white dial and an interchangeable strap, allowing the wearer to switch easily. The unmissable eight screws command the limelight, marking their true Cartier-esque quality. For a little extra bling, don’t be afraid to add a ring. We trust the Link Rings by Katrina Vrakas that take their inspiration from the iconic watch bracelets to up the ante.

Watches

FOR THE MARINER

Stricken by the shores and the depth of the ocean, any nautical amorist knows that Panerai is the ultimate watch for the sea. Stamped by the Italian Navy, this brand has been a go-to for those enthused by all things driven by the sea. Almost all their creations promise a notable water-resistant feature, and our latest crush is the Luminor Marina eSteel. Consisting of 58.5 per cent recyclable materials, this watch assures the same robust appeal with a sustainable backing. The 44-mm dial size can be romanced in three shades – blue, green and grey – and has an impressive three-day power reserve. Pair this with a Saint Laurent’s Silver Short necklace to offset the new eSteel.

Watches

FOR THE COLLECTOR

With a long-standing tradition of keeping your timepieces safe, back in the 1930s the British Army officers raised an issue with keeping their watch safe whilst playing polo. Jaeger-LeCoultre came to the rescue and developed a unique model known as the Reverso. The now iconic watch has the ability to be flipped, safeguarding the watch while the wearer is immersed in a hostile activity. Back in the day it was meant for polo players but today it’s more of a keepsake. The blank canvas that lies behind has evolved as a playground for messages, insignias and even another watch altogether. This little piece of history is one that can truly be made your own. Modelled after the original, the latest Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Tourbillon lends itself as the perfect addition to a collector’s reservoir. The perfect balance of the old and the new, the watch is limited to only 50 pieces and is definitely one to have and hold. Stud the Jack de Boucheron brooch on a lapel to match its one-of-a-kind appeal.

However, you must separate a person’s wants out of the needs. While you are working to raise your credit score actually you need some sacrifices. For example you may shop online to save money or you can go to second hand shops instead of costly department stores regarding clothing.

  7. In these days of austerity and relative stress about getting debt, lots of people balk about the idea of utilizing a credit card in order to make purchase of merchandise or pay for a vacation, preferring, instead to rely on a tried in addition to trusted way of making settlement – hard cash. However, if you possess the cash there to make the purchase 100 , then, paradoxically, that is the best time just to be able to use the credit card for several causes.

  22. Thanks for your short article. I would like to say a health insurance specialist also works well with the benefit of the coordinators of your group insurance cover. The health insurance professional is given a summary of benefits sought by someone or a group coordinator. What a broker does is seek out individuals or even coordinators that best fit those desires. Then he offers his ideas and if both sides agree, the broker formulates legal contract between the two parties.

You may be aware and be following these tips, nevertheless reinforcing understanding never does any damage.

  25. One more thing. It’s my opinion that there are many travel insurance web-sites of respected companies that allow you enter your holiday details to get you the prices. You can also purchase this international holiday insurance policy on the web by using your own credit card. All that you should do will be to enter all travel particulars and you can view the plans side-by-side. Just find the system that suits your finances and needs after which use your credit card to buy it. Travel insurance on the web is a good way to start looking for a respectable company to get international travel cover. Thanks for discussing your ideas.

  26. I would also like to add when you do not now have an insurance policy or else you do not take part in any group insurance, chances are you’ll well really benefit from seeking assistance from a health broker. Self-employed or people with medical conditions normally seek the help of a health insurance agent. Thanks for your blog post.

  27. I was suggested this web site by my cousin. I’m not sure whether this post is written by him as nobody else know such detailed about my problem. You are incredible! Thanks!

  29. Thanks for discussing your ideas. I might also like to mention that video games have been ever before evolving. Today’s technology and inventions have served create realistic and enjoyable games. Most of these entertainment games were not really sensible when the concept was first of all being used. Just like other forms of technological know-how, video games also have had to grow by many many years. This itself is testimony to the fast development of video games.

  30. I’m extremely impressed along with your writing abilities and also with the layout to your weblog. Is this a paid subject matter or did you modify it your self? Anyway keep up the nice quality writing, it is uncommon to peer a nice weblog like this one today..
