Wearing One Watch, Three Ways

The point of buying your dream watch (or any watch, really) is to plant that sucker on your wrist all day, every day, for as long as both it and you keep ticking. But your attire isn’t a constant. The seasons change, your tastes change, and dress codes change. It’d be great if you had […]

Suits, Streetwear and 15 Stylish Men on Instagram

Style is more than the sum of fashionable parts. Does a Martin Greenfield suit or a Swiss-made watch help?
