As a die-hard collector of vintage watches, I’ve grown to appreciate the right accessories to pair with my treasured pieces.

Enter the gold-plated Forstner bracelets to save the day.

The small independent brand showed us the first four Sơn Mài pieces last September, and they promptly sold out.

It’s OK; you don’t have to like the Patek Philippe Cubitus — ever. You can carry your vitriol around like a badge of honor and scream to the heavens. That’s fine, but if you choose to do so, you’ll miss a pretty damn decent watch. We can agree that the 45mm original was and is a pig, but the new 40mm Cubitus is right where it needs to be. Just six months ago, Patek Philippe dropped a bomb on the watch world with the Cubitus.
