The Modern Gentleman

God is in the details, as Mies van der Rohe once said, and this season’s array of accessories is truly heaven sent. Continuing the trend of reengineered luxury brands, Dunhill is the latest to transform its traditional identity into a bold, contemporary vision for the modern gentleman. Drawing inspiration from their history as purveyors of motoring accessories, Dunhill has launched several collections that evoke the early days of motorsport. The X-Centric watch is a unique example of the range, reminiscent of speedometers on vintage automobiles. Another stalwart of tradition, Montblanc has modernized their collection by creating the Starwalker line of writing instruments. In today’s digital age, a fountain pen is a true luxury that sets apart the true connoisseur from the everyman. While adage holds true that clothing makes the man, the right accessory makes the manís man. Take your pick from these objets d’art.
