My Top 5 Picks from the New Allsaints Watches Collection
Great news folks, All Saints have launched a new collection of watches which combines style, precision, performance, and attitude. It's a 20 piece collection, ranging from £148 to £298. I think the collection oozes a brawn ruggedness. They have a military aesthetic, but also combine sporty elements and a dusting of futurism.
I'd be interested to know which one (or ones) you would pick, but here a few that I have my eye on.
UNTITLED III STAINLESS STEEL AND BLACK LEATHER WATCH
This is not only a great accessibly priced watch, it's just a great looking timepiece. I have a thing for the polish stainless steel and black leather finish combination. I think it's a classic look that encases all the vintage elements, yet keeps the modern look.
UNTITLED IV MATTE BLACK STAINLESS STEEL AND WHITE LEATHER WATCH
This one is more design-led with the deep monochromatic contrast. It has the element of futurism that I hinted at earlier. It's a perfect watch if you want to stand out. It's youthful, playful, I'm all in with this one.
SUBTITLED IV STAINLESS STEEL AND BLACK LEATHER WATCH
This has echoes of an IWC watch. In particular the Big Pilot Black Dial Automatic. Now this is considerably less expensive and has a lot less going on. But in terms of chemistry, I immediately gravitated to this when I saw it. It has a real allure and intensity.
SUBTITLED VII BLACK STAINLESS STEEL LEATHER-WRAPPED WATCH
This is the big daddy of the bunch. The most expensive. Now I'll confess it's probably not my favourite, and it just makes it into the top 5. But I am semi-materialistic enough to admit that I want to play with the most expensive toy in the box.
UNTITLED II GUNMETAL STAINLESS STEEL AND GREY NYLON WATCH
Lastly I'm going to pick out one I'd like to travel with. This would be an everyday watch for me and I really dig the minimalism as well as that slightly clinical look.
All watches are now available through the All Saints Website.
