I assume this is the stetson we are looking for?

i have this EXACT SAME HAT. but mine's not made for the guy from bonanza. so it's prolly not worth 6 bills. boo.

plus i got an oval head, so i think realistically i need a resistol oh well.

Could I get help with a maker ID?

Haven't been out much lately, and when I have been haven't found anything too amazing. But I haven't put in full effort scouring the stores, more like a quick overview. However, have found a few decent items. Hopefully not jinxing myself with this, but did pick up a lady Datejust that so far has passed hours of researching. Have found an identical model sold from legitimate Rolex resellers. Just researching a bit more before I take it to an AD for verification. It has some wear and isn't perfect, but if it is real I won't complain one bit as it was true thrift price. I know it's a long shot, but so far it's passed all the normal authenticity checks I can find.
Will take some pictures when I don't have a sleeping two year old on my chest.
For now, here is one of the same models to whet your appetites. Mine has a white face, but is identical beside that.

Finally, some pieces worth picking up. All available apart from the belt.

PRL white Linen? and madras blazer, crispy. 44R








NWT brown, double pleat Canali trousers. How old are these?





Vintage Valentino tie. I don't usually pick these up but the print is awesome.



Balmain reversible leather belt. The holes are pretty shredded and its way too big for me, but for 50p you can't leave it behind. Could leather workers made the belt smaller?

My god... How did I miss this, but nicely done, Spoo!

 

[matty long legs]

******* FINALLY! Big fat cherry pop.

Of course this store tags their scarves in the middle. So there are four small holes near the center. I've complained about this to the lazy, uneducated, unreasonable manager before. Did it again today too, but he refuses to change their process.
