The Joys of Analog

The beauty of a classic watch is the

simplicity of its form and function. That’s the

seductive appeal of the recently revamped

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Air-King an icon

since the 1940s and the price-friendly

Timex Waterbury Chronograph rereleased

to celebrate the company’s 160th birthday.

Both watches manage to look rakish or

rugged as the situation demands.$6200;

lenses counter glare while a detachable

neck cord and leather side shields allow

a quick transformation to dashing aviators.

vents will help you cool. This is one jacket that handles it
all — without compromising its timeless style.Shell $825;
