$3000 as "entry level"? Definitely not a game I'd want to enter.

Probably not what you're looking for but GS make some very nice watches for women.

^^ All your fits look great! But I'm wondering if you may have gone a size too large on the aviator's vest?

There are quite a few places. If you want to buy from Japan, good options include John Lofgren at Speedway as well as Genco, Old Goat, Wild One, McFly, Hoosier.

In Europe, Pancho and Lefty.

Agree. Not a fan of that camo on that vest. Well done on the navy jungle cloth version. Hope it works out for you.

I missed one. They also did the aircrew in woodland camo last year.

Love the vest D!

Thanks. Denim is FW 51 and Denime XX.

Awesome. Never enough Seiko.

I don't own any IH gear so can't really help there. But I seem to be similar size with Velo Audio and he says above he's an L in IH.

The air crew vests are sized large to wear over outerwear. My FW deck jacket above is sz 42 but I wear 40 in the air crew vest, obviously with room since I can still wear it over deck jacket as above. That said, it doesn't look huge over just a shirt or sweater.

You might have trouble finding this specific version. This is from two years ago when they first did this pattern in green and eggplant rip-stop. Last year they did the same pattern but with alpaca in khaki and navy jungle cloth. This year they changed it up and released a hoodless "aviators" version in brown and green.

I was actually just thinking the other day that that would probably work too.

Mine with a couple seasons wear.

And under the Air Crew Vest.

Glad you're happy with it VA. Same size as me. But yours is alpaca.

Indeed, arms are slender. And a touch on the short side, but not bad. With the slender arms but roomy body, I have found that a heavy filson vest or similar works very well underneath for cold temps.

Is that indigo dyed wool?

Can anybody help on sizing a c-2 vest?

I think that's definitely their best color scheme for an A-2. The combo of dark seal brown and brown knits is great.

Any helping on sizing the blue seal trousers? I'm a 32w in Freewheelers 51 cut. And I think I wear a 32 in IH 634.

Looks great MM.

Anybody own the MJ14112 Submariner coat? Happy with it? How's the sleeve and body length?

The military alpaca vests are badass.

@derivative666:

I have been talking about buying a dateless Sub for 4 years now but, never seem do get away from my Seiko

That's all one needs right there, IMO.

I see. Those Moscots look great. And in the future you still would have the option of grabbing the clips for the Kinney. I really like the fact that the clips are foldable and they give you a nice case. Makes it very easy to carry them around just in case.

On second look, it was actually the Milwood that I was looking at, not the Kinney….

Nice choice! Earlier this year I looked long and hard at a ton of specs. Ended up coming down to the GL Kinney or the GL Venezia. Bought the Venezia because they worked better for my face. The blonde fade is done really well on these.

Surprised you didn't buy the GL clip on sunglasses. I bought them for mine, and they work great!
