The end of the year means it’s time to hand out some awards. No, there’s no little statues to pass along, but over the next few days we’ll still highlight some of the best in affordable men’s style from this past year. And it was a good one. Feel free to send in additional nominations here.
They can’t make enough of these things. Orient took the already well liked, modern Orient Bambino, and aged the styling to make these new options look like something from the early 20th century. The end result is a classic, domed crystal, 40.5 mm diameter dress automatic that won’t go out of style any time soon.
There are four different styles, but good luck getting your hands on one of the stainless steel (not gold-tone) case options. Especially the cream dial with blue hands. When they do get restocked, they move fast. And for good reason. Full review over here.
The hard to find, blue hands w/ cream dial model. Also sold out.
Also Receiving Votes: The Seiko Solar Adventure Chrono, Christopher Ward’s C9 Harrison GMT (now with some “nearly new” models on sale… still expensive), Tissot’s Carson Chronograph, and Citizen’s new white dial classic chrono.
The Huck team is off on vacation. Which means their big winter clearance is very…
Brooks Brothers starts their winter clearance with an additional 25% off sale items.
Plus a Christmas album you probably haven't heard yet this year. Maybe.
With a focus on holiday events. It's their last sale before their shipping cutoff.
Style choices to make for those times when how you're perceived is critical.
