    Japanese Shoes: Bespoke & RTW Super Thread

    If I may just ask one more thing, does it mean then that there is no cork under the sole, like on bespoke, since there should not be any gap to fill? It was my understanding that the gap filled by cork is created by the machine stitched welt, but my knowledge is limited so I may just be mixing...

    Japanese Shoes: Bespoke & RTW Super Thread

    Hi I am not clear about the construction of the Spigola MTO shoes and would appreciate any input as I might be interested in purchasing a pair. The construction seems to be referred as hand sewn welt but machine stitched for the front part of the sole. Anyone could give any light on what that...

    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

     You could consider the R1 rubber sole which is as thin as leather and supple and light, but hard wearing and appropriate for wet weather. It is the EG equivalent of the GG wensum. I have handled both and feel they are quite perfect for nicer shoes which can meet wet conditions

    The Watch Appreciation Thread (Reviews and Photos of Men's Timepieces by Rolex, Patek Philippe, Brei

    I don't have my exact measurements but my wrists (and me as a whole) are pretty small. 42 is the largest I can wear I think. When it comes to style, i agree those very different. I am simply looking at something that works with suits and at the same time is not too classic looking so that it...

    The Watch Appreciation Thread (Reviews and Photos of Men's Timepieces by Rolex, Patek Philippe, Brei

    Thank you for your answers. I like both watches just as much and my primary and maybe only use is with a suit. My longines is the conquest, so a diver watch, too thick and quite unfomfortable with a shirt cuff. I have tried the reverso grande taille (but manual and no date with short power...

    Good evening, I am in need of some guidance again if you could be so kind. I have been trying a lot of watches lately to find something to wear everyday with suits. The last 2 that have really cought my attention are the panerai 512 and the zenith captain central seconds with white face and...

    Hi, In addition to the recommendations that have been made earlier for my case, I have seen the Cartier Tank Solo XL (automatic movement). I really like the looks of it, and it is much cheaper than say a Reverso for example even though I know the insides are probably not in the same category...

    That is a nice one, which model is it? I have seen pictures of vintage seamasters that I really liked. I have tried on a new seamaster aqua terra, and even though it was nice it did not have the same charm

    Thank you Newcomer, Roger and Dino for your comments, suggestions and knowledge. I actually like a lot of the watches you suggested, and unlike shoes i cannot really buy 2 or 3 at a time, so it's a tough choice. But that's a luxury problem. I'll take my time and go and see those you have listed...

    Thank you very much, the picture are also very helpfull. For my personnal development, could you say a few words why the DJ and DeVille do not match up? As far as I understand they also have manufacture movements? Maybe not the DeVille... Thanks you!

    The Watch Appreciation Thread (Reviews and Photos of Men's Timepieces by Rolex, Patek Philippe, Brei

    Hello everyone, I could really use some guidance on where to start looking for a dressy watch. I have looked at a few (JLC reverso or master control, Rolex DJ, Omega DeVille) but maybe I am missing a lot of choices and since I have not seen all those models I just listed, maybe I have the...
