    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    The all look lovely, but have any of those shoes actually ever been worn? They don't look to have any creasing or rolling at all!

    The Watch Appreciation Thread - Part two (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Jaeger LeCoultre,

    A couple of thoughts (more musings, really): a) Weren't you effusively praising Patek's hand-polishing just a few pages back, and saying that's one of the things that (subjectively) makes Patek superior to brands such as Grand Seiko? As you say, when something is hand-made, there will be...

    Cool furniture, design objects and desiderata

    Is it this space on the plan? If so, maybe a plant in that very back corner and bench or chair in front of it. Alteratively, pack it completely full of plants? No, it's the space immediately to the left of that. The one you've highlighted is a small balcony (it says "barukonii" in...

    Australian Members - Part II - if you read the first post, you'll get what this is all about.

    End Clothing (online) has some great knitwear, including brands such as Inverallen, Jamieson's of Shetland and Shetland Woollen Co. End is particularly good value when they're having a sale, which they do fairly frequently. Inverallen is probably Inis Meain pricing, but Shetland Woollen Co...

    Cool furniture, design objects and desiderata

    O-hikkoshi omedetou! That space reminds me of those little "balconies" that you always see in ryokan, where there's a small armchair, glass-topped coffee table and, sometimes, a little bar fridge. I'm not recommending that you put a bar fridge there, but it looks like a really nice place for...

    @Thracozaag! How cool! Years ago now, I remember he posted some clips on Styleforum of him playing piano - I think that he may still have been finishing his PhD, or at least near the beginning of his career. Great to see that he's doing well. That's essentially correct. Nowadays, mechanical...

    The Official Dieworkwear Appreciation Thread

    That does indeed look like a Prince of Whales overcoat... ...but now I'm wondering where on earth that picture came from!

    The Watch Appreciation Thread - Part two (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Jaeger LeCoultre,

    Very true, and it's worth noting that in past decades (with very, very few exceptions), men only had one or, at the most, two watches (perhaps an everyday watch and a dress watch). So, as you say, watches didn't get stored away or locked up, because they weren't part of a "collection" that...

    What TV Series Are You Streaming Lately?

    I just watched the recent BBC version of The War of the Worlds: Unfortunately, it was disappointing. The first episode was good, and the first part of the second episode had some good scenes, but then it went downhill. The whole thing became rather garbled and started jumping around in...

    Things you just don't get

    Hopefully, once the water became calmer, the boats that rushed away went back and rendered assistance. I'd like to think they would - but then, considering that people can't even be bothered to push a trolley a few metres in a shopping centre, my faith in humanity isn't strong!

    Things you just don't get

    Holy cow - I wonder if anyone died? It looked like that slab of rock came down virtually on top of a couple of the boats.

    The Watch Appreciation Thread - Part two (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Jaeger LeCoultre,

    I think that the two of you are talking about slightly different things. You're talking about non-limited-edition watches that are hard to get because of high demand (ie Daytona, Nautilus, AP RO). However, if I understand @classicalthunde correctly, he is talking about limited-edition...

    The Official Dieworkwear Appreciation Thread

    Obviously, we're all different but, speaking personally, I wouldn't spend $1100 on a pair of boots that weren't actually what I wanted, and then spend more money to try to have them turned into something that I wanted. I'd just wait until I could find the thing I actually wanted. Even though...

    The Architecture Thread

    Very cool, although as @brokencycle says, you'd want to be careful walking down those passageways! Parts of it definitely do have a hobbit-hole vibe and some rooms also look cosy, which hobbits would certainly appreciate! Didn't one of the French fashion designers (YSL, perhaps?) have a...
