Watch collecting is mostly about timepieces themselves, but surrounding these objects is a whole host of other items that are part and parcel of the same world.
Jeweler's loupes to examine said timepieces, valet trays to hold one’s “pocket litter” (to use an old bit of espionage lingo), lighters to light up that occasional Cuban cigar…we love accessories, and our offices are littered with them. However, we couldn’t possibly keep all these objects to ourselves, which is why we’re offering some of the coolest vintage finds right here, just in time for holiday gifting — whether to a loved one, or to yourself!
For those for whom aviation is a prime interest, feast your eyes on this beautiful aluminum model of a Concorde, the famed jet whose unfortunate demise spelled the end of supersonic travel. (For now.) From 1976 until 2002, the Concorde crisscrossed the skies at speeds up to Mach 2.04 — an incredible 2,167 km/h.
Measuring 17.5” x 11.75” x 9” with a 6.5” x 5” base and crafted from aluminum, this is an eye-catching design object perfect for accenting a desk or dresser. It’s also a unique find, so if it catches your eye, don’t sleep on it!
