    How about that vintage western look

    With their signature square snaps, Rockmount Ranch Wear shirts have been worn by Grant, Clapton and Newman among many others. Here is one of mine in khaki twill

    Let's see your mechanical watches

    Been wearing this old Elgin which is basically a stem-winding pocket watch with lugs for straps. Sterling case. Keeps perfect time!

    Do you own a Tux?

    I need these like I need a hole in my head but.... At a local charity shop I found a tail coat and trousers (perfect fit) from the great old store Bullock's Wilshire. They had another in midnight blue by Rogers Peet for Robinson's that I may go back and get as well. I also bought a beautiful...

    Any Persol fans? (also general sunglasses chat)

    Love them--have/had several pairs over the years. I bought my first pair in Venice in the 80s. I was shocked later that evening when I converted the Lira price into dollars but well worth it!

    What is your favorite Scotch Whisky?

    I like Dewars, Pinch and Famous Grouse as my everyday/blended pour. My father drank Chivas Regal so occasionally I will have that for the memories. Single malt favorites are Oban, Glenfarclas, Highland Park and Laphroiag/Lagavulin. It is too early for me at the moment, but this makes up my...

    What Are You Reading

    Just acquired a 1956 first edition of Esquire's Drink Book and fascinating reading/drinking it makes. Sits nicely next to my Savoy Cocktail first edition and others. Off to The Smoke House tonight so will have to have a vintage-inspired cocktail....

    What Are You Reading

    I love the hunting scene with Levin and Stiva--as a hunter myself it rings so true. Which translation are you reading? I am a Constance Garnett fan, myself.....

    Show us your Guns!

    Wow--I have done that! I once came home from a hunting trip to Texas and found out that I had a live 20 Gauge shotgun shell in my pocket. Made it through three airports without anyone noticing it. I did have TSA Pre but still.... Done this with spent cartridges as well which would have been...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Have been binging on The Saint (and the Return of the Saint). Very Avengers meets James Bond. The Charteris books are wonderful, too.

    There are some wonderful cocktails you can make with this like the Jack Rose or sours sweetened by the judicious use of maple syrup. Great for fall.

    Do you own a Tux?

    I have three that I can think of and several dinner jackets (velvet, tartan, etc.). Hackett, Brooks Brothers and a wonderful one from Japan. My favorite is a bespoke Anderson Sheppard from the late 40s that I bought at Oxfam years ago. Perfect fit. It was okay to wear in the UK but too...

    In Search Of: The Great Hot Dog Stand

    Walter's is the best. I have a jar of their mustard in my fridge as we speak. My wife's first apartment after college was in Larchmont so it was a real local favorite. Flo's in Cape Neddick, Maine is right up there, too. I like Pink's on the West Coast but rarely make it there. Truth be...
