Christmas Gift Guide 2022 – The Watch Lover

Baume & Mercier Riviera 10702 Automatic Watch with Date Display

In partnership with Baume & Mercier

A gift no watch-lover can refuse (indeed, it just might make his year), Baume & Mercier’s Riviera 10702 is a masterpiece of complex detail, powerful performance, and minimalist design. Running on the acclaimed Baumatic manufacture calibre, it combines stellar Swiss mechanics with an iconic 12-sided bezel and transparent smokey grey sapphire dial. An interchangeable metal bracelet and open caseback reinforce a sporty vibe whilst staying true to the watchmaker’s sophisticated sensibilities.

First introduced in 1973, the superlative Riviera hasn’t lost an iota of its allure in the time since. This latest iteration continues a tradition that’s decades in the making but also picks up where the 2021 model left off. There’s simply no mistaking the visual prowess put forth by the signature dodecagonal bezel and four screws, two enduring hallmarks of the original classic. Gaze upon the see-through dial of smokey sapphire and you’ll see those Baumatic gear trains in motion. Long live Swiss luxury.

MR PORTER Dégradé Crocheted Cashmere and Wool-Blend Sweater

In partnership with MR PORTER

From the personal label of luxury hub MR PORTER comes this brilliant cashmere sweater with a 5% touch of wool. It was designed by the brand and crochet-knitted in Italy, the latter being a process that can only be done by hand. The very words “cashmere” and “wool” conjure a downright cosy vibe but don’t sleep on the sweater’s stunning dégradé pattern, which darkens in tone as it descends. Pair that with the meticulous construction and you’re looking at a masterpiece of style and comfort.

Anyone who purchases this signature sweater will also receive a QR code, granting access to exclusive digital content such as care information, wardrobe advice, and backstory. But one doesn’t need additional information to know that this is a quality garment with a unique sense of balance between minimalism and versatility—you realised as much as soon as you put your eyes on it. The fact that it’s being offered by MR PORTER is a luxurious signifier unto itself and thus one more sign of distinction. – AUD$578

In partnership with Nomos Glashutte

German legend NOMOS Glashütte hails from the heart of Glashütte, Saxony, where premium watchmaking is a way of life.

Bring in the steel bracelet with polished and satinated links and you get the best of ergonomics and performance alike, which isn’t to mention the downright classic interface.

Water resistant to 20 atm, the Club Sport neomatik features highly legible numerals and indices on its PVD-coated and sunburst-finished display. Thanks to white Super-LumiNova, those details take on a luminous glow under dark conditions. The aforementioned automatic movement was developed in-house and equipped with a signature swing system to ensure the utmost precision. A tight 37mm case brings everything together and looks as great as it feels across a host of adventures and terrains. Anyone who loves sports watches will love this. – AUD$4,410
