The building is like a giant Palm Springs apartment block that’s somehow found itself marooned on a Central London traffic junction. It was one of the tallest buildings in London when it opened, and while it may
Mondays suck, that’s a given, Tuesday mornings aren’t much better either now we think about it, but there are some things simply guaranteed to ruin a gentleman’s day – even on a weekend. You know what we’re talking about, those random acts of God or pure bad luck that turn a regular day into the
We are the fairer sex and though the woman presented to the outside world might be cool, calm and invariably well put together, there are certain things that she would rather you didn’t know about what goes on behind closed doors (literally and figuratively).

Though not traditionally thought of for their pilot watches, Zenith actually have a rich aviation history and this new Pilot Montre D’Aeronef Type 20 GMT 1903 from Zenith is yet another example of just how right they can get it.

White jeans have long been the butt of fashion jokes in this city.

Remember what we said in point 6 in last week’s article on ’15 Things Women Wish Men Knew’? No? Then have a read here if you missed it –thegentlemansjournal.com – the point was, a woman will always be flattered by a man asking her out. It is not, therefore the asking out that is the hard
Here comes yet another instalment from famed daredevil Mustang Wanted. Known for his extreme free-climbing, this video sees Mustang hanging from buildings, walking along thin cranes and jumping on moving trains – his moves are so extreme that it’s even hard to watch without getting a bit of vertigo. Lucky for us, we can enjoy
Lights – not the most riveting of furniture or interior categories, but this week we can’t get enough of industrial style lighting and boring, it ain’t!
