In an absolutely captivating fusion of horological precision and raw, natural beauty, British watchmaker Christopher Ward has released the mesmerizing C63 Sealander Stones Collection. This series of limited editions marks a significant departure from conventional dial craftsmanship, offering luxury watches with faces hewn from the very bedrock of the British landscape.

The collection comprises two distinct, elegant options: one dial created from authentic Welsh slate and the other from honed stone derived from the majestic Lake District. This dynamic, material-driven approach elevates the versatile Sealander platform beyond a mere tool watch, transforming it into a wearable piece of geological history that speaks to a connection with nature, all while simultaneously keeping the refined aesthetics expected of a contemporary luxury timepiece.

Each timepiece features a dial with singular character

The beauty of this collection lies in the unique qualities of each dial with no two alike, ensuring every owner can claim possession of a truly singular work of art. The 39mm case houses the elegant Christopher Ward Calibre SH21, a robust and precise manufacture movement featuring an impressive 120-hour, five-day power reserve. This feat of modern engineering offers a stunning contrast to the ancient nature of the stone dials. The slate version presents a nuanced charcoal texture, while the Lake District stone presents a lighter, more organic grain. Both are elegantly framed by applied indices and coupled with a matching hybrid rubber strap or a sophisticated bracelet, creating a timepiece as durable for adventure aand distinguished for daily wear.

A definitive statement on modern British watchmaking

With the C63 Sealander Stones Collection, Christopher Ward has solidified its unique position as an innovator in luxury timepieces. This release captures a sense of place and permanence on the wrist, successfully bridging the gap between rugged tool-watch functionality and collector-grade uniqueness. For the discerning enthusiast in search of a timepiece with a compelling narrative and undeniable British character, this limited collection represents a rare opportunity to own a fragment of the Isles.

The ‘Dad Reset’ is on the horizon: Megan Collins leads the charge
Men are taking ownership over what they wear and the founder of Style Girlfriend is here to help
Person, Sitting, Adult

One of the most frustrating moments in any man's style journey is when your wardrobe starts to feel stale. No matter what you do, you feel like everything you put on is old, boring, or tired. You try to switch it up. You pair it differently. It just lost its luster. The truth is, it happens to all of us. But the people who struggle with it the most are middle-aged men. With a specific focus on dads. Middle-aged men are too young to resign themselves to not caring about their look anymore. They are too old to dive into the trends with the changing of the fashion winds. So many of them throw in the towel. Add to that overwhelming feeling being a busy father, and there is just no way to spend the time and energy on rebuilding a wardrobe. That is where Megan Collins comes in. Her business, Style Girlfriend, takes men and restores their confidence from the ground up with new, elevated, and evolved stylistic choices.

When you have one outfit you love, you wear it. When you wear it, you notice how much better you feel. Then, you want another outfit that gives you that same feeling. That's how confidence builds. Not all at once, but one good decision at a time. - Megan Collins, Founder, Style Girlfriend

Shinola’s new blacked-out Mackinac Night Race revives a rare sailing complication
The Detroit brand's new limited edition puts a one-of-a-kind forged carbon dial on a yacht timer — the countdown built for sailboat starts.
Wristwatch, Arm, Rope

Shinola has made watches about Detroit, about the Apollo program, and about a lake monster. Its newest one is about a sailboat race, and damn, is it good-looking.

The Detroit-based brand is launching the Mackinac Night Race, a limited edition built around the yacht timer — the countdown complication used to time the start of a sailing race, aka one of watchmaking's more specialized tricks. The name nods to the Great Lakes maritime history the watch draws on (so not technically an official race tie-in).

The West is a statement look with TAFT’s new edit
TAFT Longhorn collection gives you a stylish look with a little western flare
Clothing, Footwear, Shoe

One of the most iconic ways a man can stand out is to make a statement with his style. Now, this isn't as easy as it sounds. Most of the time, if a man doesn't know what he is doing when he goes to make a statement, he goes overboard. Colors, patterns, textures, they can all work together or battle each other out for attention and cause problems. For instance, wearing a bright color combined with a crazy pattern can make you look more like an optical illusion than a stylish man. You look like you are cosplaying The Joker instead of methodically piecing together pieces that are working together to give an outfit depth. One of the tricks I have always loved to incorporate with my looks is a statement shoe. A typical everyday outfit can be elevated easily with a shoe standing out with color or pattern. One of my favorite brands to go to when I want to do that is TAFT. They are the best in the game for a statement shoe, and their new edit is a way to capitalize on that idea.
