Essential style and unparalleled quality from champagne to racecars, these are Gafencu’s top shopping items for men this April….

Gold Disc Winner

Ever one to ensure its many ardent admirers are richly rewarded for their brand loyalty, A. Lange & Söhne’s latest timepiece is a rare treat. Indeed, its newly unveiled Grand Lange 1 Moon Phase “25th Anniversary” could be among the German watchmaker’s finest ever achievements. Most notably, it is the first-ever Lange watch to come complete with a solid white gold hand-engraved lunar disc. Add into the mix its striking argenté colour-coordinated blue alligator straps and this is one timepiece you’ll never tire of flaunting. 

Picnic Champers

Armand de Brignac, that most lauded of premium champagne producers, has released a fresh tranche of its Blanc de Blancs sparkling fare just in time for the summer season. This 100 percent chardonnay cuveé is derived from the most traditional Chardonnay territories, Côte de Blancs and Montagne de Reims, before being dextrously decanted into the brand’s signature metal-coated and hand polished bottles. Your al fresco dining will never before have benefited from such fine fizz of acidic and mineral perfection. 

Webbed Wonder

Roaring full-throttle towards a dealer near you is McLaren’s 720S Spider, said to be the most versatile convertible supercar the company has ever crafted. As with many of McLaren’s finest cars, it comes blessed with a carbon fibre structure and a wholly futuristic design. As the lightest vehicle in the range, it is said to combine the craftsmanship of a luxury sports car with the usability you’d expect from an everyday auto. With its retractable roof and glazed floating cantrails, you’ll certainly be bringing high-style, high-tech to the highway. 

All-Star Cigars

Davidoff of Geneva, one of the world’s favourite cigar brands, has announced the latest addition to its hugely-popular Winston Churchill collection – The Traveller – Robusto cigars which feature a fine blend of tobaccos from Mexico, the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. Only available for a limited period and with just 8,000 boxes produced, the cigars are said to boast alluring notes of coffee and leather with hints of cinnamon. Housed within an elegant leather repository (with a Boveda humidification device installed as standard), lucky owners are sure to “never surrender” them. 

Bough Wows

TREE, Hong Kong’s very own one-stop destination for sustainable and stylish furniture, has announced its 2019 collection is all about evoking a natural home feeling. Accordingly, all its premiering pieces have been designed to be the perfect home adornments on a perennial basis. The Deck’s cosy bedframe, for one, has been crafted from eco-wood, and is sure to add the warmest of tones to any boudoir. Its Alex Lounge Sofa Single’s rounded and deep tub seat, meanwhile, is just about the perfect perch for anyone looking to curl up with a good book after a long day.
