Gem, Set And Match: How Jewellery And Watch Brand...
Today, jewellery and watch brands are making powerful plays in the world of elite sports, and driving business growth while they do it. Summer marks the beginning of sports season; Henley Royal Regatta, Wimbledon, the US Open, Monaco Grand Prix – and various other events. Avid sports spectators will recognise the visibility of jewellery and watch brands, and those akin with the world of watches and jewellery will also understand the importance of these partnerships in the industry.

Stealth Wealth: The Growing Appeal of Quiet Luxury Brands
It is characterised by a meticulous focus on high-quality materials, expert craftsmanship, and timeless design. Unlike trends that come and go, quiet luxury brands prioritise quality over quantity, creating pieces that are meant to last. Their designs are often minimalist, featuring logo-free clothing that avoids loud logos and flashy branding. This approach to fashion is driven by a desire for subtlety and refinement, appealing to those who appreciate the finer details and the art of subtle luxury. This trend aligns with the concept of stealth wealth, where discreet luxury is reflected through high-quality, well-crafted clothing rather than bold branding. In essence, quiet luxury is about making a statement through simplicity and refined elegance rather than overt displays of wealth or status.

London Fashion Week 2025: What to Expect
London Fashion Week (LFW) 2025 is fast approaching, set to dazzle the fashion world from February 20 to February 24. Known for pushing boundaries and setting trends, this year’s event promises an exciting fusion of creativity, sustainability, and innovation. Here’s everything you need to know about what’s shaping up to be an unforgettable week.
Featuring Diamonds Might Be The Most Robust Alternative Investment
However, for those in the know, nothing can replace the world’s oldest; diamonds. A study from New York Life Investment Management LLC said that women are ahead of the game, with 27% of women allocating their bucks to “non-traditional investments,” whilst only 20% of men do the same. Experts suggest this gap is likely to grow in the favour of the ladies who appreciate the beauty of jewellery, watches and handbags, whilst they appreciate in value. The value of diamonds is wrapped up in its size, quality, and rarity. The UK head of the Natural Diamond Council, Lisa Levinson said one coloured diamond is found for every 10,000 mined, and are only accessible to those with big bucks to spend. The colour in these diamonds are a structural defect, she explained, and so finding the environments needed to create certain colours isn’t common. For example, green diamonds are created from nuclear radiation over thousands or millions of years, and cost around $1M per carat, and the yield of pink diamonds from the now-closed Argyle mine in Australia, could fit into a champagne glass.
Luxury Men’s Clothing – Curated Picks by The Luxury Gent
Some habits I’ll defend with evangelical fervour, others I’m more than ready to retire. Loyalty, though, is never given lightly. It has to be earned—and earned well. Take my Timberlands. I’ve worn the same pair of boots on rotation for close to 27 years, replacing them every 18 to 24 months like clockwork. They’re hands-down the shoes I wear most, and I haven’t found anything that beats them for comfort, durability or design. That’s the kind of habit I’ll keep. But many of the others—born from a dislike of shopping and frustration with overpriced, underperforming clothes—are ready to be left behind. Which is why I went looking for the brands doing things differently. A new class of labels challenging the old guard with smarter fabrics, more thoughtful production, and a design ethos that actually fits the way we live now. Consider this a curated list of the future of luxury menswear: less tradition for tradition’s sake, more innovation where it counts. Let’s dive in.
