IWC Schaffhausen Portofino Automatic Moon Phase 37 Year of the Snake
IWC Schaffhausen has dropped the Portofino Automatic Moon Phase 37 Year of the Snake, which is limited to 500 pieces and features a burgundy dial that harmonises perfectly with the golden moon of its moon phase display.

The Savile Row Suit by Patrick Grant
Savile Row is the home of hand tailoring, and for over 200 years royals, rock stars, and giants of the business and political worlds have come to have their clothes cut, sewn and fitted here. In this book Patrick Grant, co-owner of Savile Row tailors Norton & Sons, celebrates everything that is brilliant about the street, deep-diving into its history, as well as its modern existence.
Deakin & Francis 18ct Yellow Gold USA Enamel Flag Cufflinks
Since 1786 British jewellery brand Deakin & Francis has been the go-to for exceptional vitreous enamelling. These 18ct yellow gold cufflinks have been intricately handmade using the same technique that dates back to the pharaohs, and feature a patriotic American flag.
Sunspel jeans
Not about wide-leg jeans and think skinny fits should've been left in 2003 with MySpace. Well, Sunspel's regular-fit jeans are the perfect middle ground. Made using premium 13oz Japanese denim fabric, crafted by Kuroki Textiles, they have a mid rise and are updated and reworked in a lighter fabric with a slight stretch, making them ideal for everyday wear.
Manolo Blahnik Tamarak shoes
Looking for all occasion lace-ups? Homing in on the energy and dynamism of vibrant metropolises, Manolo Blahnik's Tamarak shoes are a sleek take on classic lace-ups, and come with pinked and brogued uppers. There's a reason Manolo Blahnik is considered the master of footwear, and these shoes prove it.
Áwet Yordanos Knit Sweater
Sweater season is fast approaching and New York City-based Áwet has got your back covered. This oversized wool-blend knit features an allover ball heart pattern, mock neck, ribbed trim, and long dropped sleeves. It's the ideal jumper for layering up on a cold Sunday (and there's plenty of those on the way).
Luca Faloni shirt
A wardrobe staple year in year out, Luca Faloni's Italian silk and cotton shirt has unrivalled versatility. Whether you wear it with a pair of slim-fit chinos, jeans or wide-leg slacks, it'll look the part. Throw on an oversized coat and you've got your autumn fit in check.
Dior Sauvage eau Forte
Inspired by the symbolic power of water, Francis Kurkdjian, Dior Perfume Creative Director, has reimagined the classic Sauvage. Dior Sauvage Eau Forte is a fresh and spicy alcohol-free fougère, which is made using an aqueous formula mixed with a fragrant oil.
Gérard Bertrand Villa Soleilla Quintessence 2021
You might not know it, but there's an 8,000-year-old Georgian tradition of vinifying white grapes in whole bunches in buried clay amphorae. The result is a delicious orange wine, with spicy, fruity aromas of apricot.
