If you don’t already know, I happen to be a fan of minimalist wallets. Started with money clips, then the inevitable need to accommodate cards eventually had me looking for a good balance between minimalism and utility. Sufficed to say (and if you read the past post I linked to), I’ve got solid choices if we’re talking minimalist leather, or metal. Both materials have their pros and cons. Leather is nice and flexible, but once flexed long enough, it won’t keep a good grip – it also doesn’t do a good job protecting your cards over time. Metal is best for protection and reliability at the expense of weight and fixed limits on how much you can store on it. Plastic, well… fuck plastic, we aren’t children here 😛

The Decadent Minimalist DM1, based on current experience is turning out to be what could be the grail metal wallet for your minimalist EDC needs.

While people who appreciate watches gravitate towards mechanicals, there are some exceptions like your G-Shocks et all that many consider to be must haves for any watch enthusiast. And then there are novelty watches that are just too darn cool that it’s so hard to pass up. Division Furtive’s Type-50, for me, is one of them.

Recently, I got myself a new pair of CIEMs, ¹ Custom In Ear Monitors and also had my trusty UERMs repaired. During the wait, I ordered a pair of carrying cases for them from 64Audio because why the fuck not 😛

Visitor Watch’s Calligraph Duneshore is a very unique piece that doesn’t ascribe to the typical aesthetic you see in other watches. Its case design was inspired by the sloping hills of sand in Dunes National Lakeshore, Indiana – whereas its hands take cues from fountain/calligraphy pens. And in my opinion, it works very well.
