A couple of those pics wherein the gents are sporting pocket watches, caught my eye. Their chains,instead of being looped through a button hole on their vests, are instead snaked through a vertical slit specially created for the purpose. I don't recall seeing such clear examples until now. I might have this done to a few of my vests, in as much as I often find that using an existing button hole to be problematic due to interference with the button of the chain &/or its attachment device.

something about those last couple sets of photos looks staged to me ... can't quite put my finger on what ... but they almost look modern with an attempt at vintage

plus to door handles on the group shot in front of the building look modern

sure as hell don't look 1900s
