Editor's Picks: NOMOS Glashütte Tangente, Thom Sweeney flannel trousers, Nyetimber Demi-Sec wine, Deakin & Francis Steel Bangle
This week, we've picked a selection of gear that represents a little much-needed TLC and self-indulgence. Put your gift list aside for a moment, and treat yourself.
Words: Gentleman's Journal
This week, we're considering a little TLC. With all the gifting that will take place over the following month, we're pondering over what we want in our lives—materially speaking, of course. From comfortable flannel trousers by Thom Sweeney, to Nyetimber sparkling wines and some revitalising eye cream by Malin+Goetz (for the morning after), this is a selection of our favourite gear when we're feeling rather selfish; and when it seems appropriate to treat ourselves.
NOMOS Glashütte Tangente 175th Anniversary Edition
For more than thirty years, the Tangente model by German watchmaker NOMOS has been a favourite. As part of the 125 Years of Glashütte series, the Tangente now comes in this 18kt rose gold refined edition—limited to just 175 pieces. It’s elegant, understated, and exclusive. A timepiece to keep and enjoy on special occasions.
Nyetimber Cuvee Chérie Multivintage Wine
The first of its kind in England, the Demi-Sec by English sparkling wine-maker Nyetimber is released in conjunction with London's 34 Mayfair, and their most recent campaign 'A Twilight Falls'. In partnership with Nyetimber, and in line with Christmas, it is set to transform the venue into a haven of timeless sophistication, with Nyetimber wines served all throughout the evening. Be sure to book fast.
Deakin & Francis Sterling Silver Torque Bangle
The best accessories are understated—showing their true value on closer inspection. Deakin & Francis’ sterling silver torque bangle is an essential that works with everything in your wardrobe, from black tie events to resort-wear.
J.Ottaway Navy Knitted Long Sleeve Polo
We are big admirers of J.Ottaway’s classic pieces that are refashioned for a modern lifestyle. Top of our wish list is this elegant navy knitted long sleeve polo, made from a breathable merino wool.
Malin+Goetz Revitalizing Eye Cream
Malin+Goetz are synonymous with the best technologically advanced treatments (while also looking rather stylish in the bathroom cabinet). Their eye cream will help improve the appearance of dark circles and fatigue, which is perfect as we enter the festive season.
Sipsmith x Paul Smith London Dry Gin
Paul Smith and Sipsmith feel like a perfect pairing, as the iconic British designer joins the gin experts on this latest collaboration. As well as being presented in a rather handsome bottle, each one is part of a limited release that will appear stylish in your drinks cabinet.
Thom Sweeney Flannel Trousers
Combining the comfort of track pants with the elegant look of tailored trousers, this charcoal flannel pair are as comfortable as they are stylish. The drawstring waist offers unrivalled movement, while the single pleats and slim silhouette ensures they’ll work perfectly with an unstructured blazer or overcoat.
Deakin & Francis Octopus Decanter
If it holds a fine whisky, your decanter should be also be a scene-stealer itself. Few make a statement like this Deakin & Francis Octopus Decanter, which is manufactured in a traditional square spirit style by Dartington. Once the decanters are delivered to Deakin & Francis, they are paired with one of the stunning stoppers which are designed in Birmingham’s historic Jewellery Quarter.
