Venom makes his last dance with Tillys

Celebrate the final installment of Tom Hardy's trilogy

Tillys

When he starred in Sony’s Venom, Tom Hardy brought Spider-Man’s most dangerous villain to life. He appeared again in a sequel that brought an even more terrifying symbiote to battle Venom in Let There Be Carnage. A small cameo in Spider-Man: No Way Home gave fans the hope that we would be seeing Hardy’s version of the villain go up against Tom Holland’s version of “Web Head” in the MCU, but now we know that the next film in the franchise, Venom: The Last Dance, will be Hardy’s final appearance as the dark symbiote and the hope of seeing the two Toms go head to head dwindles. However, there is a glimmer of a silver lining, and we can see a little more of Venom with a new collaboration. Tillys x Venom is now live on Tillys and gives us a little more of our favorite Spider-Man villain.

Celebrating one last venomous ride

The California-based company has become one of the leaders in skater, surfer, and general SoCal aesthetics over the last four decades. Not only have they been one of the leaders in the industry, but they have also been innovative in developing Southern California style with other regional brands in ways the entire country recognizes. Their new collaboration with Venom: The Last Dance includes 18 pieces: T-shirts, casual pants, hoodies, and outerwear. All of which feature the titular villain and his heroic nemesis. Even if we never see Tom Hardy in the MCU, we can at least wear him to the next premier.

Swatch’s new gold MoonSwatch is priced like it’s 1969
The Mission to the Moon 1969 packs 11 grams of real 18K gold — priced at the 1969 gold rate.
Wristwatch, Arm, Body Part

Guess what? It's another MoonSwatch — but this isn't just another colorway. The new drop from the Switzerland-based watchmaker, the MoonSwatch Mission to the Moon 1969, is the first to use real gold across the dial, hands, crown, and pushers.

The watch marks the anniversary of the Apollo 11 landing on July 21, 1969.

Breitling’s new Top Time is a wearable tribute to the Aston Martin DB5
The new watches rep the iconic Bond car right down to subdials shaped like its dashboard gauges.
Car, Watch, Man

Breitling just released a trio of heaters: the Top Time B01 Chronograph 41 Tribute to Aston Martin DB5, a three-edition collaboration with the British carmaker. The connection between the Swiss watchmaker and the British car company runs back to 1965, when a Top Time ref. 2002 appeared on Sean Connery's wrist in Thunderball, worn alongside the DB5 — the first Q-modified watch in the Bond series. It's a nice bit of trivia that the DB5 and that Top Time shared the screen in the same film, and both went on to outlive the movie by decades.

The car cues go deeper than the "squircle" gauge-shaped subdials: a wooden inner ring nods to the DB5's steering wheel, and each edition rides on a hand-colored gradient calfskin strap meant to read like automotive upholstery. All three run on Breitling's in-house Manufacture Caliber 01, a COSC-certified automatic chronograph with a 70-hour power reserve, visible through a sapphire caseback and finished with an Aston Martin-engraved rotor. The case measures 41mm. The editions are divvied up by material and rarity. Stainless steel with a silver dial is limited to 1,022 pieces and sticks closest to the original ref. 2002, while steel with a platinum bezel and black lacquered dial drops to 315 pieces.

Look to the sky for these space themed watches
These 5 space themed watches will have you seeing stars
Accessories, Strap, Wristwatch

It was the 1960s. We were in the middle of a Cold War with Russia, and instead of escalating to an actual war with bullets and bombs, we took the conflict to the sky. We created a war of economics, science, and morale in a race to the sky to be the first nation to reach the moon. While the race picked up throughout the decade, it came down to the wire before the USA won the race by landing on the moon (if you believe that sort of thing and don't believe Stanley Kubrick directed the greatest ruse of all time). In any case, no race can be run without a good timekeeper. And watches were a must-have for all involved. Ever since, chronophiles like me have been obsessed with space-themed watches and, in particular, moon mission watches.

That is why I happened to have this list in my head. Five watches that bring the space race and the great beyond to the forefront of thinking to build a collection that is out of this world.
