Award-Worthy Watches…

The Academy Awards was last night and let’s face it most people watch the show to see what the stars are wearing, not to mention some of the outrageous acceptance speeches and of course the host’s monologues and between awards badinage. “Mad Max: Fury Road”, was the big winner of the evening with six awards in the technical categories… and “Spotlight” was named Best Picture. But let’s get real: without Googling last year’s winners most of us probably don’t remember that “Birdman” took the top honors last year, taking home the Best Picture prize. The acting awards are another story and…

Cuff Love…

Wearing one of today’s uber-thick wristwatches may pose a problem if you’re like most guys who wear long sleeve shirts with cuffs that button at the wrist. The average width of the cuff of a non-bespoke shirt is anywhere from 8 to 11 inches, even if you use the first button on the sleeve cuff, which will allow you a drop more room. You could opt to wear a dress shirt with French cuffs that do require cuff links to close the sleeves and may offer a bit more room on your wrist. However, French cuff shirts with cuff links have…

It’s Got To Be A Wittnauer!

Bulova Watches, Designer Watches, Fashion Watches, Men's watches, Wittnauer Watches

For generations Wittnauer Watches have been one of the most respected and revered American watchmakers in the world. The brand was established in 1885 in New York, NY by Swiss watchmaker Albert Wittnauer and F. Eugene Robert, an importer of Swiss watches who joined together to produce American made watches with Swiss movements at affordable prices. The Wittnauer brand immediately found its niche producing scientific and private exploration timepieces for navigators, explorers and astronomers. The US Navy employed Wittnauer in the early 1900’s for aviation and navigation purposes. During the First World War, Wittnauer produced timepieces and instruments for aviation units.…

3 Great Watches for Fly Fishing

Fly fishing. If you’ve spent any amount of time chasing trout in tiny mountain streams or targeting bonefish in the Florida flats, you’ll know that there’s a culture that surrounds this sport that is truly unique. I grew up in Western New York pursuing native, stocked and lake run trout in rivers and streams almost all year long. I’ve recently moved to Miami, and I’m looking forward to transitioning to salt water… and getting after snook, reds, bones and maybe even tarpon. Regardless of what you fly fish for, you’ll likely recognize three distinct activities that are part and parcel…

But if you’re like me, it feels like wedding season is eternal. I gotta deal with the year-round nuptials, I’m just at that age. All my friends are getting married and it doesn’t look like there’s any end in sight. I love how I’m talking about this as if I’m not contributing to the problem, but helloooo I’m getting married next year. In my head, I thought I was going to be walking down the aisle in like 5 years maybe, but my future husband completely derailed that plan when he proposed to me in the middle of a Dave Matthews Band…
