An all black Alpine Eagle

Ever since the Chopard Alpine Eagle line was rolled out, it’s been winning hearts and getting better with time—the latest model is designed for high comfort levels and features a titanium casing crafted via an advanced electro-plasma process.

Apart from the ceramized titanium material, the Chopard Alpine Eagle 41 SL Cadence 8HF stands out thanks to the all-black shade, accentuated by an orange minute track—two colors that create a beautiful contrast. Like other previous Alpine models, this new Chopard model features a 41 mm casing, perfect for different wrist sizes.

Hour markers have a black shade that blends perfectly with the dial for a monochromatic aesthetic. While the hour hand and minute hand also share the same hue, the seconds hand breathes some life into the front face with its orange hue.

At the 12 o’clock denotation, there’s an orange inscription that gives the front face more color. The clear sapphire caseback is highlighted by a white engraving that reads—Cadence 8HF. Every component featured on the caliber is in plain sight and aligns with the all-black theme. Some sections are also distinct due to the orange color accents.

This model draws energy from the L.U.C 01.06-L, an in-house movement with a 60-hour power reserve. To complete the all-black aesthetic, the watch comes with a black strap that blends with the casing and dial. It can be swapped with a calfskin strap that’s highlighted by orange accents to match the dial.

As a limited edition watch, the number will be capped at 250 pieces—each costs $25,000.

Serious Question: Why are you wearing anything OTHER than Taylor Stitch this fall?
Outdoors, Nature, Yard

Look, I am admitting it right here. The internet is forever. So I know I can never take this back. But I am not an unbiased journalist. Sure, I try to be objective in my reporting of brands and trends. But subjectively, I have favorites. Brands that speak to me. Brands that fit me well. The ones that define my lifestyle better than any others. Now that I have that off my chest, I can objectively say that there is no better brand for your casual wardrobe than Taylor Stitch. I have always loved them more than most, but this year, the Taylor Stitch F/W collection has me asking one very important question for all of you out there:

Why the Hell are you wearing anything other than Taylor Stitch this fall?

Christopher Ward’s new release turns its sporty Loco into a dress watch
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Can a watch be a dress watch if it’s got an in-your-face design element like, say, the balance wheel visibly spinning on the dial? Christopher Ward is betting yes.

The Maidenhead, England-based brand just launched their C1 Loco Classic, a dressed-up take on last year’s C12 Loco. That watch was an angular, brightly colored sports watch built around the brand’s in-house CW-003 movement.
