Himel Brown Kensington for Mother's Day

I am also wearing this new acquisition -- this is why I added gussets underneath the sleeve zippers:

Watches! Now there’s an expensive hobby. Not old cars or horses expensive, but it’s not jackets.

Myself, I am more into three hands dress watches, in particular with arabic numerals, but boy, I have to admit, this is one gorgeous chrono! The dial and the details on it are outstandingly beautiful! I'm not gonna lie, I would be scared to actually wear one of those, though, gussets on sleeve zips or not. I bump into stuff by mistake way too often..

The Himel looks and fits great, too, however I feel that the pattern could do with broader shoulders.. i think i like RMCs take on this style better for that very reason. Might just look that way because it is not broken in and you have it zipped up, though, because i just checked the pictures or your original J100 which imho looks much better on you and that one doesn't really have broader shoulders..

I am a recovering watch addict. I have considerably less money invested in watches today as compared to seven years ago.

That actually is a nice watch...

Thanks Ivan.

Thanks Fonzie.

Thanks JJ. I used to be into dressier watches (Greubel Forsey, F.P. Journe, etc.) . . . when I wore suits to work five days a week. As I get older, I am getting much more casual with not only my watches, but also my clothing. Thus, I sold all but one of my dressier watches, and today I wear primarily casual watches. This new watch is an AP ROO Havana . . . I wanted a brown ROO to compliment my black AP ROO Jarno Trulli.

The Himel looks and fits great, too, however I feel that the pattern could do with broader shoulders.. i think i like RMCs take on this style better for that very reason.

I am rather slender and, for my body type, I much prefer the narrower shoulders of the Himel as compared to the broad shoulders of the RMC. Don’t get me wrong – the RMC is awesome and, if I had broad shoulders, the RMC might be a better option.

It’s May and I still wear a leather jacket... crazy weather.

 

[jacketjunkie]

Meanwhile in supposedly cold Germany, I haven't been able to wear leather in weeks. France, come take your weather back home, it's not welcome here!

Does the chest zip close ending at the armpit? I've always wondered.

Yes it does.

Aero (not LVC version) Hippie jacket. Gave it to the girlfriend but taking it on a field trip. Can only wear it for limited bouts-arm blood circulation gets about cut off.

@Superfluous how on earth do you choose between the Himel Kensington and the Vintage Buco J-100?


....is it like choosing which child to save from a burning building?

Have you done a side by side comparison between the two? It would be interesting to see how close the Himel is to an actual original!
