G-shock-Illuvium — Illuvium Beyond x G-SHOCK Wave 3 Collection G-shock / G-shock

NFTs have re-emerged, and the market cap for different coins has skyrocketed. Ever since the bull run kicked off in 2024, multiple blockchain projects have been launched to capitalize on this.

Illivum recently announced an NFT project that merges two fields, horology and blockchain, by partnering with Casio G-shock while creating NFTs.

According to Kieran Warwick, the Co-Founder of Illuvium, “The G-SHOCK x Illuvium collab isn’t just a drop; it’s about bringing something fresh and exciting to the community. With the market turning up and new energy in the crypto space, this is the perfect moment to release a collection that combines nostalgia, innovation, and unparalleled craftsmanship.”

While Illuvium was founded in 2022, it dominated the market quickly, with major partnerships and a huge revenue of about $12.1 million.

The Illuvium Beyond x G-SHOCK Wave 3 Collection features six different characters. Illuvitars are distinguished by a unique style and allure that blends smoothly with the G-Shock on their hands. For instance, Earth Dakota is known for his fighting skills, while Flare was created with a protector-like look. Examples of other characters include Pho, Lynx, Archos, and Aapon.

Featuring three different background colors, the Wave 3 collection highlights every character in a stylish manner. Each Illuvitar comes with a G-shock that matches its background and character traits.

Anyone who purchases 20 characters will also get the Illuvium Beyond x G-SHOCK watch in its physical form. With that said, Wave 3 Collection Illuvitars will be available until December 22, and each one retails at $35.

Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Once in a while, a watch brand will remind people that a chronograph can be a serious technical instrument and a completely fun flex at once. That's what Zenith's latest move is, and it's a doozy.

The Le Locle-based maison has added two new interpretations of its DEFY Extreme: the Ultraviolet and the Lapis Lazuli II.

Amberjack The Axis sneaker

This post is brought to you in paid partnership with Amberjack.

Amberjack's Axis sneaker is here and it's been quietly building a following in the dress-casual sneaker category for a good reason. At $185, it sits at a price point that genuinely undercuts the comparable luxury options. With premium build, value, and proprietary comfort tech, the Axis changes what a daily-wear shoe looks and feels like and delivers a wear experience that mass-market $100 sneakers and $400 designer pairs both struggle to replicate.

The 5 suit brands you need to know to build your first suit wardrobe: Including the first aspirational one

Building a suit wardrobe starts with the brands you can trust

Men's Wearhouse Custom

Look, starting a wardrobe is difficult. You have to decide what kind of man you want to be. What kind of message do you want to send? What kind of budget do you want to use? And how often you want to go back to the drawing board. What kind of man do you want to be? Sounds heavy. Sounds dramatic. Maybe because, in some ways, it is. So much of what people initially believe about you remains in their subconscious long after they get to know you. So what you wear is important. The message you want to send is one of being put together, attentive to details, or it is the opposite. Laid back and unbothered. The budget is also integral to the wardrobe you build. High quality comes with high prices. However, it comes with longevity, so it means you don't have to replace it as often, saving money in the long run. So, what kind of man do you want to be? Hopefully one that wears men's suits.

No matter what man, message, budget, or shopping frequency you choose, a good suit wardrobe will need to be a part of it. So, where do you go? How do you start? Here are the five brands to trust to get started. No Tom Ford, Brioni, giant fashion houses here. These are the five suits for the man starting out. And one for the man aspiring to the next step. The first four, you can grab your first quality suit for around the $1,000 mark. The aspirational one will be your first custom, so it will be a bit more.
