      @@Gent.ZI am just 18 and working an unstable job that pays by day, even though I get paid double of minimum wage where I live it’s still just about 25 dollars a day. That means not even 800 dollars a month IF I where to work every single day. There is the problem I don’t work every day because first of I’m an apprentice what makes some jobs like roofing to dangerous and secondly my job is very weather dependent. Meanwhile I haven’t had work for over a week so I can’t even get started buying clothes yet.
      My day to day style now is baggy second hand clothes, surplus military jackets and workwear. I wanna get into this style soooooo badly but I cannot afford to spend the little money I have on clothes. I am now saving up to around 2500-3000 dollars because I’m gonna go for arborist what will be a decent paying job and a more stable one. I will have to move back to Belgium (I live in Bulgarije but I am from Belgium) because there are no arborist courses here.
      It’ll take a while before I get into this and probably will buy cheaper stuff

    Great recommendations! I think you're really optimizing for a good mix of affordability and (decent) quality. I'm sure some Bond purists might complain, but in reality, the character of Bond wears Tom Ford and Omega because they pay him to. Ian Fleming was a bon vivant himself and a lot of his tastes made it into the Bond books, but the literary bond was never a flashy high end brand victim. He liked nice things, not expensive things. That's why I think a modern day Fleming's bond wouldn't be wearing 2000 dollar TF cardigans either. It's product placement driving those decisions. (Looks great though!)

    Hockerty has a great suit crafting application. I made my own version of the Spectre Tom Ford three piece suit in a charcoal herringbone (the one worn by Craig at the funeral was black herringbone), with all sorts of high end features for a little over £325. Currently, I’ve designed copies of the Brunello Cuccinielli Brown linen jacket and the Massimo Alba Sloop (they have a lovely micro-cord fabric). Ted Baker and Loake are great brands that have the look, quality and fit for a bit less. Also, look at Vinted. I got a pair of black Crockett and Jones chukkas for £50.

    As an omega loving college student, I have experience with Pagani Design as a watch brand. The materials and "value" you get for money is unmatched by other brands, but I have had hit-or-miss experiences with them. I have a blue Seamaster homage from them that looks absolutely stunning. However, about a year into ownership the energy in the spring system started lasting less. If I stop walking for a few hours at most, the watch will start falling minutes behind. The quartz daytona on the other hand has kept ticking reliably although the feel on the buttons is not great.
    Thesis: Pagani Design is probably the best way to rotate through watches for cheap, but they can feel a little crude and don't seem to last for many years.

    • @Gent.Z
      @Gent.Z  4 місяці тому +1

    Interesting you mention the need for tailoring, in the first set I looked at the shirts and thought you're going to have to get that tailored to have any hope of looking like that. If I'm careful with most purchases I can get the fit I want off the shelf. But that goes out the window when buying a suit, I've never been able to find one off the rack, without tailoring, that fits like a suit should. Which eliminates chain outlets and pushes me to shop at high end men's stores for suits where you have some hope of finding a sales person that knows what they're doing.

    I agree with you for the clothing and even some accessories 100% but the watches. Bond goes for omega- the issue is omega Rolex audemar etc.. luxury brands often have fakes replicas- the watches shown are along the same line.
    I’d say a better option would to be to shop from Swiss, French or Japanese/ general well-established, rich heritage, affordable watch companies like Seiko as shown in your other videos.

      @@Gent.Z Both Edward Green and Gaziano & Girling have a bespoke offering. There are however cheaper alternatives. That being said Edward Green and G&G are still massively cheaper than John Lobb. The London John Lobb rather than the Paris based one.
      The Paris based John Lobb only have a ready made collection. Which is I gather made in Northampton, England. The bespoke offering from John Lobb of London is somewhat costly.
      Somewhat remarkably there are some made to measure options rather than fully bespoke. I gather there are some online where you get some of the advantages of a fully bespoke shoe such as hand welted fiddle back soles etc. and the ability to pick the materials but they are made in places where labor costs are cheaper. China or India. I think one of the people whose family owns the Carmina shoe company in Spain went to China and trained people there to make high end shoes. They use top grade leathers etc. but because the labor costs are low they are able to produce high quality products and far lower costs.

    The thing when creating a wardrobe is that whilst it has to be within you budget you also want it to be usable. Therefore I strongly disagree with some of your suggestions that omit quality for budget. Glaring example for me is that Pagani Design Watch. It's a cheap Chinese made knockoff of the omega and will fall apart quickly. Instead, the Bulova watch example, from a reputable brand, would be the way better choice for a usable wardrobe, as it will last much longer. Same goes for everything else in the video. Cheaper alternatives are only a good choice when they also hold up decently in quality, which most suggestions do, but some don't.

I have the complete and ability of writing a short comment. So I'm just going to leave a bunch out but and I was aware of how the the shoes I can't think of the name but I didn't realize the rest was Daniel Craig got the the movie company or whatever to incorporate those shoes specifically for in the movies. He personally where is the shoes. Keep it simple I like to look my best and dress up when I go out it really doesn't matter where I have a lot of dress shirts I might not adhere to a tight regiment a particular styles the comments come back is why are you dressed up nice where you going? I usually just shrug it off or say I'm going to lunch with somebody. . And I enjoy it I mean even if I'm working in the yard in the garden and I just got to run down and I wouldn't do it the other part is do I have to say that that gray suit I didn't realize that pattern that oh that he looks so good there with those those glasses that were $700 and all this stuff is sold out that's blows me away but I'm retired now and regardless back in the day I worked in men's department so I'm close and barstow's and that taught me not only about customer service oh my God but how to dress how to put things together men's suits casualties the whole bed when I started there I didn't know a spread call from Oxford cloth etcetera etcetera so I'm really grateful for that and so I know at least basic you know I don't have to get fancy if I'm going to go out I just keep it simple like there's certain things in my opinion you don't wear with brown shoes instead you put the outfit with black shoes play your video was great I am a big Daniel Craig fan and I was laughing a bunch of the time too have your comments and how you're mentioning it and the prices of the things of my car but he looks good thanks so much man yeah it makes me verklempt not really but people just don't guys just don't dress up man they don't wear a tie they were a Blazer or a jacket and they have a white shirt on and no tie I swear to God it is what it is Ace where we're at Cary Grant is another one oh my God he is the spitting image of the dressed gentleman from what I understand Mr Grant got it in his contractor made a deal that he gets to keep all the clothes whenever he made a movie you spent a lot of time living in a particular Hotel I don't remember which one and when he got older he was on the board of directors of Faberge like Faberge egg okay I got to go that was fantastic thank you man
