Weiss Watches First Ever Limited Edition Timepieces

The Manual may earn a commission when you buy through links on our site.

Limited editions watches don’t normally start rolling out just two years after a company’s first year in business, but Weiss Watches pulls off the feat like a pro. This month, they dropped their first ever limited run two Field Watches, featuring new dial color combinations and Horween Shell Cordovan straps. Not only are they fine looking timepieces, but with quality, good ol’ made in the U.S.A. craftsmanship behind them, they’re a solid investment.

The Limited Issue Dark Blue Dial Field Watch features a dark blue dial, latte numerals, silver hands with latte lume, and brown handmade Horween Shell Cordovan strap. Only 100 pieces will be produced. The Limited Issue Black Dial Field watch features a black dial, latte numerals, silver hands with latte lume, on a black tonal handmade Horween Shell Cordovan strap. Only 200 pieces will be produced. New Shell Cordovan strap options will also be available.

As to why Weiss is going limited run before their junior year? Cameron Weiss, Weiss Watch Company founder and master watchmaker stated, “We are asked all the time for special versions of our watches. We felt it was time to release a set of limited issue timepieces to mark our two year anniversary.”

Current Weiss timepieces feature a Swiss made mechanical movement that is hand finished and assembled in Los Angeles. All stainless steel cases, case parts, case-back screws, dials, crowns, gaskets, sapphire crystal, spring bar tools and white pine packaging are designed, engineered and manufactured in California. Weiss is, as of now, the only watchmaker in the United States designing, engineering, and manufacturing their own cases and dials, as well as finishing each movement by hand.

The Limited Edition Field Watches will be available only on the Weiss website, and soon through select Barney’s New York locations.

Both editions retail for $1500, featuring individual serial numbers and Certificates of
Authenticity.

Can you even call yourself a menswear brand if you don’t have your own leather jacket?

British label &SONS just came out with theirs, and it’s a doozy. They teamed up with The McQueen Estate to build a version of the A-2 flight jacket, aka the jacket Steve McQueen wears in The Great Escape.

Bulova’s new Shelby Racer Chronograph is inspired by the Daytona Coupe
Car, Watch, Man

We are fully in race-car-watch-season, and Bulova is joining the pack with their newest release. The New York company is back at it with Carroll Shelby Licensing for a new limited-edition chronograph.

This one’s the Shelby Racer, built around the 50th Anniversary Aluminum Edition Daytona Coupe. That’s the aluminum-bodied version of the car that made Shelby the only American manufacturer to win the FIA Sports Car World Championship in 1965. (If you’ve seen Ford v Ferrari, you already know the rivalry — that movie covered Shelby’s Le Mans campaign a year later, but the Daytona Coupe is where the beef with Ferrari actually started.)

The Gentleman’s Guide to Wedding Attire
Wedding toast

As a menswear writer, I take pride in snazzy dressing. You can imagine my chagrin when I showed up to a recent wedding as the worst-dressed groomsman. It had been a perfect storm of sartorial mishaps. I’d slimmed down since the last time I wore black tie, leaving the jacket and cummerbund baggy. My favorite cuff links had vanished on a work trip. To complete the fiasco, my tuxedo shirt bore an archipelago of merlot stains from a Christmas party in late ’25.

Fortunately, I had the chance to salvage my dignity at another wedding a few weeks later. I rallied like Rocky. Rush alterations. New cuff links. A crisp Marcella shirt. Polished black shoes. I went from disheveled schlub to black-tie stud.
