    That was actually the same issue with Budd too. They just couldn't figure out how to compensate for shrinkage.

    I ordered a first round of 5 shirts a few years ago with James Macauslan as the cutter. Unfortunately, the fit was never that great, even after 3 tries.

    I kind of dig their style, thank you for the recommendation!

    I'm trying to save as much money as possible. For the kitchen, thinking of repainting the existing cabinets while changing out the hardware, new floors, backsplash, countertop, sink and faucet. It's a small galley kitchen which could theoretically cut down on the costs. In the bathroom, putting...

    Hi everyone, I am in the process of closing on a 1 bedroom condo in Clarendon and want to remodel/update the kitchen and bathroom along with furnishing/decorating the dining and living rooms. Does anyone have recommendations for remodelers, contractors or interior designers in the DC area?

    They look great! Interestingly enough, their promo photos show Cutipol flatware.

    Cool furniture, design objects and desiderata

    They were fine while using them at the restaurant, but the food was delicate. Don't know how it would stand the rigors of kids and daily use. Might be more of a special occasion set.

    I'm a big fan of Cutipol's Duna and Moon sets. Elegant lines and curves. They first caught my eye earlier this year at Pineapple and Pearls in D.C.

    I was thinking $1k max based on the specs and lack of originality. $3.5k is a joke. It is a nice looking watch but I'd feel like I was wearing a fraud.

    It depended on if it was a full suit or just a coat and if he had to order the fabric. I averaged around 5 - 7 weeks pre-COVID after my pattern was set. He still has orders but not as many as before and without any staff to help.

    I don't have many photos unfortunately but do have one of an earlier commission in a subtle Dormeuil glencheck. His coats are fairly structured and flattering to normal to athletic builds. Construction is traditional with lots of handwork.

    Good suggestions from the other posters but if you are still in doubt, Will does give good advice. He also has a nice rotating selection of fabrics in stock that could be fun to peruse. I have a couple of commissions where I came in with a particular book or two in mind and changed my mind when...

    From the pictures, the new green bezel looks like a shade of Forest Green, which is fine. I liked the colored dials since Rolex already has plenty of black dialed sports models.

    I think it was about as expected - the remaining sports models received the new movement line that was kicked off by the Day-Date a few years back. Weird though that they didn't update the Hulk or the Smurf and instead made them into black dial versions for 2020. Maybe Rolex didn't want the...

    That is also a gorgeous piece but was not unfortunately present at the showing.

    Thanks! Yes, the pushers are absurd and detract from the overall look. It would be a much more attractive watch with reasonably sized pushers. Yea, I don't know why it has to be so thick especially since the caseback is closed. For all the criticisms of lack of change with Rolex, their watches...

    I was excited to drop by the Grand Seiko showing at Watches of Switzerland a few weeks ago. It was probably the largest collection of contemporary Grand Seikos in the U.S. and had almost every model you could think. It wasn't packed and I was able to try on a few myself. The first two are Grand...

    Jacques Marie Mage - Wolves, Obnoxious Acetate and The American Dream

    I've jumped on board with my first pair of JMMs - the Reynolds Silverfox. The quality is very high and I like all the little details, such as the gold nose pads and the unique tips on the end of the temples. Packaging is also more chic than what I've seen from other brands. I'm hooked!

    I'll be NYC next week and looking to get my first pair of JMMs. Any recommendations for where to shop? Which store has the largest selection? Anthony Aiden and Visionary Optics seem to have good reviews online.

    Not even a well made one! I can at least nod at a nicely done travel clock, setting aside the price. They threw in a cheap Pontifa movement from old stock discontinued AP promo desk clocks, poorly glued leather to the case and misaligned a couple of the outer screws. It does speak to the...
