August Man SG - Issue 190

この問題で

Mads Mikkelsen looks intimidating but isn’t, he’s emblem of silver-haired refinement and maturity, with a face weathered and lined but rather than coming across haggard, he’s oozing bizarre sex appeal. He is a man of contrasts.

Flip this month’s tome and you too will discover an issue of contrasts - Chanel and Hermes (p. 16) as men’s accessorial staples? How can this be? A sporty Patek Calatrava (p.30)? Get out of here! Hublot x Nespresso (p. 40)? Have you all gone mad? Pastel coloured Panerai watches (p. 42)? Has hell frozen over? What we are witnessing is a renaissance in the art of combining two disparate concepts into one cohesive design.

Even planet stewardship is in the middle of a paradigm shift - Partners of Rolex’s Perpetual Planet Initiative have discovered we need to shift from mere conservation of species to conservation of functions (p. 82) as our Editor discovered during an epic diving trip to the Caribbeans. Even fashion’s latest buzzwords like “Quiet Luxury” have been turned on their head with unexpected styling twists on foundational key investment pieces (the spread on p. 100) - no longer quiet but quite the splash.

Life’s full of surprises. Enjoy the issue.
