    Let's see your mechanical watches

    Superb. I am a big fan of odd shapes, especially square, rectangular and tonneau shapes. I have a Bulova incoming with more or less an identical case to your 47 Excellency, but with white dial. Here is a pic from the seller:

    Show off the sports coats.

    Blazers

    As much as I love a good glen check sports jacket, I agree there's nothing to instantly make you look the part like a well made, well-fitting wool blazer. I have one navy DB with gold buttons, as well as this midnight blue single breasted, 3 button number. Can do anything a suit can do when...

    Show us your TIES

    I don't wear ties all that often, preferring day cravats most of the time, but when I do I prefer wool ties, as they feel a bit more casual and keep the knot better. Here's one I like to wear in spring.

    Gold plated, alas. The steel versions are rarer for sale, and typically more expensive since they're all steel. Though Vulcain seems to vary widely in price, apparently random. Vintage Vulcains haven't exploded yet like Tudor, Omega or even Longines now has. Besides that, there are some steel...
