Grown Man Style PuristSPro.com - Official PuristSPro Reviews of luxury Wristwatches for Collectors & buyers Obsolete On my other Tumblr site, Internet For Dogs, I just experimented for the first time with Poladroid, a little program that lets you upload a photo through a small widget that looks like a Polaroid camera. Drag the digital photo onto the camera and then you see it develop in slow, Polaroid fashion, fading from a kind of murky gold into the colors of your picture. You can stop the developing any time if you want an only under-developed, murky gold picture. Or, you can try to have some patience and wait until it’s done. I couldn’t wait! That’s why this shot looks a little yellow-y. I was hesitating about using this picture: I think the Polaroid white picture frame motif is overused these days. The subject of this photo is the Silver Jews’ David Berman and his dog, Gittel. Miss the scent of newsprint? As hard as he tried, MLK could not get cell service in the South.

Q and Answer: What Men’s Watch Should I Wear? Q and Answer: What Men’s Watch Should I Wear? Trevor asks: Can you outline what kind of watches are appropriate for what occasions? Surely everything comes down to preference and style, but are there certain combinations that should be avoided? Is there a minimum set of watches a man should own? Do I need to match my watch with my belt buckle with my shoe buckle? We don’t claim to be watch experts - we leave that to our pals at Hodinkee - but we do know enough to give you the basics. Time keeping is at best a secondary purpose in a wristwatch. So: what are those values? Let’s start with your questions. Some watches are more formal than others. Less formal watches, like less formal clothing, tend to reflect sporting roots. What watches you should own is really determined by your lifestyle and personal preferences. One is a gold Longines from the 50s, with a small case, white face and black band. I also own an automatic Junghans Max Bill, as pictured above. So what watches do we recommend?
Inventory Updates Words After seven years, we’ve decided to stop publishing Inventory. We’re extremely grateful to everyone that has supported the magazine by advertising with us or selling it in their stores; to those of you that have purchased a copy; and to the people and brands that have helped to bring our pages to life over the course of thirteen issues. Making this magazine has been such a valuable experience. I look back on the legacy of what we’ve created with awe and pride, but the publishing landscape has shifted and it feels like the right time to move on, to conclude things with arguably our best issue, and pursue new challenges and opportunities. Sincerely, Ryan Willms
