Watches and sunglasses — the two things that finish an outfit and are worn every day. Classic shapes rather than a season's trend.








Three watches and one pair of sunglasses. The watches are a Maxwell serpent bangle in gold and silver, a Maxwell with a green dial, and a ZEYRA in silver steel. The sunglasses are a round gold-tone metal frame, stated as polarised and UV protected.
A watch bought as a gift is the question we are asked most, and size is the usual worry — a bracelet can be shortened, so the real decision is whether the person wants to be seen wearing it. On sunglasses, the thing that matters is not the tint: a dark lens with no UV protection is worse than none at all, and that is explained in full in the guides.
Case diameter, movement and water resistance are left off, because the supplier did not state them for these exact watches. A number we print is a promise we would have to keep.
