Israeli-born and Brooklyn-raised, twin brothers Ariel and Shimon Ovadia celebrated their latest achievement earlier this November by popping bottles and officially christening the Ovadia & Sons pop-up shop at 63 Greene St. in New York City.

The Ovadias grew up in the lively 80s and 90s and often found themselves enthralled by the New York City underground scene. They were heavily influenced by style, hip-hop, rock n’ roll, graffiti, and culture, all of which were popular among young people during that time (and still are).

In the fall of 2011, the twin brothers launched their label – Ovadia & Sons. The Ovadias created their line with the simple concept to make clothing that connected with the very same influences from their past.  They wanted to make clothing that was modern, functional, innovative, and unique. It’s clothing that you could very easily find in their very own closets.

Now five years later, Ovadia & Sons is on to a new chapter in what has been a successful journey thus far for the Ovadia brothers. They hosted a party to celebrate the launch of the pop-up at 63 Greene Street, and it was a night to remember filled with joy and bubbly refreshments in a space that is theirs until the end of January 2017. So why did the twins choose this grand location? The Ovadias saw this as a great opportunity to share their love for New York City with their customers on a more personal level. They felt that this location was a place that represented their creativity and energy. It was an area that reminded them of where they came from, and a place that brought back memories from their younger years.

Step inside the pop-up shop, and you’ll find unique, high quality pieces ranging from streetwear to formalwear. They are well known for their outerwear options, sweaters, and boots. It’s styles that are made with high-grade materials and designed to be bold and confident in appearance.

63 Greene Street in SOHO is a 2,700 square foot showroom that will house the Ovadia & Sons collection as well as Ovadia+. The pop-up will remain open through the new year, and the Ovadias will celebrate its stay with the Ovadia & Sons Fall/Winter 2017 Runway Show at New York Fashion Week: Men’s.

Doxa’s Sub 200T watch is a new, smaller version of the Classic 300 design
Doxa introduces smaller version of Sub 300
Doxa Sub 200T series

Doxa watches aren't exactly the word on the tip of anyone's tongue when they think of their favorite brands; however, they have developed their own community, and some might dub them a cult following. The brand recently unveiled its latest Doxa watch, the Sub 200T which has sent a lightning strike through the hearts of fans, as it's unmistakably more compact than the iconic 300T and 600T models. The lack of smaller options has always been a common complaint among fans of the brand, and with consumer behavior veering more and more in this direction, it's no surprise that the latest iteration is just 39mm. The iconic design of the Classic 300 has been shrunk down to something more compact, sleek, and contemporary.
The new Doxa Sub 200T has a color for every taste

On top of that, the kaleidoscope of color options available from Doxa watches will surely satisfy every taste, from those who like bright and sporty models to those who prefer something a little more classic and subdued. The dial features a sunray-finished design with a luminous sunburst effect, and it comes with two strap options: a stainless steel bracelet with a "beads of rice" design and an FKM rubber strap that comes with folding clasps and ratcheting wetsuit extensions.

Hublot’s sapphire Big Bang gets an icy new color
Hublot reveals new Big Bang in Glacier Blue
Hublot Big Bang in Glacier Blue

The newest addition to the Hublot MP-11 collection is a formidable presence, measuring a whopping 45mm in diameter and 14.4mm in thickness, so you'll need some major confidence if you want to sport this beast on your wrist. The inaugural Sapphire Big Bang was introduced in 2016 and since then the brand has delighted fans with an array of color iterations, from other sapphire colors to purple and orange. Now, Glacier Blue has been introduced, just in time to keep you cool this summer (in attitude, not temperature, unfortunately.)
Hublot: The Big Bang MP-11 in Glacier Blue

This Big Bang MP-11 features a 14-day power reserve, which is achieved through seven series-coupled barrels arranged in a horizontal configuration, and all of that can be viewed by the wearer. The truly vibrant Glacier Blue (seriously, the blue is so bright you'll feel like you're about to start seeing your breath) is made with a fresh chemical composition but still shares the same properties as sapphire: luminous, and able to withstand scratches.
Technical specifications
This Hublot watch will leave you completely mesmerized for several hours before you even think about the technical specifications, though there are some exceptional details to go over. Inside this MP-11 is the HUB9011 Manufacture manual-winding skeleton power reserve movement. As we mentioned above, there are seven series-coupled barrels, but they've been arranged in a coaxial and vertical configuration so the watch is able to maintain a super slim profile of just 10.9mm. All tied together like a bow on top is the blue transparent structured rubber strap with a titanium deployant buckle clasp.
