It’s a feeling every guy is used to: that morning when you forget to set your alarm and find yourself rushing around your house or apartment trying to make it to a meeting on time. You scramble through a shower that is either too hot or too cold, chew through a burnt piece of toast and brush your teeth while pulling on your pants and socks. Then, by the time you’re in the car or the subway, you notice the lump on the shoulder of your shirt that just won’t go away—the telltale sign of a bad clothes hanger.

A new wooden hanger company has taken it upon themselves to help men avoid this type of situation. Well Hung Hangers makes durable, form-fitting hangers from imported wood, which are assembled in the United States. The domestic assembly is a point of pride for the brand and it’s founders and is just as important as the material the hangars are made from.

The hangers themselves feature inlaid rubber shoulder guards and a flocked pant bar, which is precisely the type of innovation that removes unwanted and uneven creases in trousers; while the 22 inch width and ½ inch thickness eliminate the shoulder bumps that can make the most fashionable and put together guy look disheveled and disorganized.

Well Hung Hangers features a team of fashion industry veterans that have worked with brands such as Neiman Marcus, Brooks Brothers and Macy’s in Manhattan. The hangers are made to accommodate a variety of men’s sizes and the company will work with custom tailors as well in order to make sure the most unique shirt or suit will never be ruined.

It’s about time to get rid of those pinched and bent white metal hangers and treat your clothes the way they should be treated. After all, you probably spent a pretty penny on that suit, why treat it like a second rate citizen? Check out Well Hung Hangers and the next time you have to rush to a meeting, you’ll have one less thing to worry about.

Rolex adds new Cosmograph Daytona watches

Rolex Cosmograph Daytona

Rolex has introduced a new, super-expensive watch covered in diamonds. What's new? Well, while we're used to this, and it doesn't exactly warrant front-page news, this introduction actually does. This new chapter for the brand unveils two new additions to the Rolex Daytona collection, and they're certainly more opulent in a subtle way compared to previous designs.
Rolex Daytona: Two new Rolex Cosmograph Daytona watches added to the collection

These new Rolex watches, which are part of the Cosmograph Daytona collection, are diamond-set models adorned with mother-of-pearl dials. Hearing about any Rolex watch covered in diamonds automatically evokes fantasies of extravagance and wealth, at least it does for us, but these new timepieces are remarkably restrained when it comes to a balance between bling and subtlety.

What exactly are limited edition watches?

Know the buzz word before you buy

Citizen watch in ground beans

Have you ever watched a movie and wondered why the rare piece of art could ever be worth the obscene amount of money the debonair art thief claims it's worth? It is simple, really. It comes down to the fact that it is rare. A truly original piece of art masterfully created by the very hand who conjured it up in their mind is something that cannot be recreated. The same kind of rare value exists in the watch world, too. There is an entire industry of limited edition watches that claim rarity rivaled only by the masterful artwork of Renaissance artists who can no longer create original pieces.

But what does it really mean to say that a watch is a limited edition? Does it truly mean that there is little chance of you walking into a party or a bar and running into the ever-embarrassing moment when your "rare" watch sits on the wrist of another...in the same room? Or does it mean they just want you to buy it quickly because they have numbers to make before the shareholders' meeting? Both are possible. As usual here at The Manual, we did the legwork to make sure are armed with the information you need before you click the BUY button and invest in a limited edition watch.
