Editor's Picks: Longines Master Collection Watch, Orlebar Brown Ullock Blazer, Ruark Audio RS1 Subwoofer
As we enter November, treat yourself to cashmere zip-ups, English-made brogues and an elegant Longines watch.
Treat yourself. Or, at least, that’s how we’re approaching the transition into November. Guy Fawkes night? Pack one of Luca Faloni's cashmere zip-up sweaters, or Cheaney's superbly-constructed brogues to enjoy the firework displays. But this month is also one of awards ceremonies, celebrations, and black tie events; so we've added Longines' elegant Master Collection watch to your shopping list, as well as Heath's hair and skin kits to keep you glowing even once the party has ended. On to November!
Longines Master Collection
The Master Collection has become a favourite among watch collectors, thanks to a design ethos that harkens back to Longines' origins. The salmon dial is elegant and understated, but on closer inspection is full of character, and a perfect accessory for your dinner suit now that party season is approaching.
Australian Rare Honey
When it comes to Honey, you can always taste the difference in quality—so it’s worth looking for the very best. Australian Rare produce the finest, and sweetest, delicacies, and their range of honeys hail from the coast of Western Australia; from one of the last protected biodiversity hotspots in the world. One of only 888 in production, the honey-filled hexagonal jar is inlaid with 22-karat gold and a matching timber lid, alongside a hand-crafted glass dipper and certificate of authenticity.
Cheaney Bexhill Derby
Treat yourself to a pair of hard-wearing brogues for the winter. Whether you’re trudging through muddy fields or the wet city streets, Cheaney’s Bexhill Derby looks and feels the part. As you can expect from a great Northampton shoe-maker like Cheaney, each pair is fully leather lined with Goodyear welted soles. The sloped silhouette and brown mahogany tone make it versatile enough to pair with anything in your wardrobe.
Heath Hair and Body Wash Collection
It’s that time of the year when your hair and skin might be feeling the effects of the seasons more than usual. Heath’s Made in England Hair and Body Wash Collection is formulated to ensure that you stay protected from the elements. Each product is vegan and sustainably-sourced, with scents that include bergamot, eucalyptus, lemon and juniper berry. Added bonus? They come in a sophisticated vegan leather wash bag.
Luca Faloni Cashmere Zip-up
An essential part of your cold-weather sartorial arsenal: Luca Faloni have perfected the classic zip-up, crafted in pure cashmere and with a subtle cable-weave that separates it from all of the others. It would look great beneath an overcoat, paired with jeans, or above your shirt and tie while on the commute. No detail is spared—even the zip is crafted in ruthenium from premium producer Raccagni.

CDLP Boxer Shorts
CDLP’s loungewear has plenty of admirers, and their boxer shorts are no different—carefully constructed for optimal comfort, and made sustainably in Portugal. In fact, the renewable wood material has a silk-like feeling, and the loose cut makes each pair supremely easy to wear all throughout the day. There are five colourways to pick from; so be sure to get a mix, as these will fast become your go-to underwear.
Ruark Audio RS1 Subwoofer
Ruark is a family-run business specialising in the highest quality audio systems, once coined ‘the Aston Martin of radios.’ So it’s no surprise that their minimalist, sleek RS1 Subwoofer is a favourite—with beautiful control systems and built to enhance the already impeccable, and award-winning MR1 Bluetooth speakers. An essential for when you have guests over, or to connect with your other tech.
Orlebar Brown Ullock Blazer
Resort-wear specialists Orlebar Brown have created an easy, breathable, superbly-constructed linen blazer that is just as satisfying to put on beneath your overcoat as it is by the time Spring comes around again. Little known fact: linen is arguably more effective at keeping you warm in winter than cotton, being a temperature-regulating fabric. But Orlebar Brown's new collection is especially at home when worn on your next winter getaway. And, luckily for you, we've compiled a list of the best destinations here.
