obey-au-portant-sweatshirt

A damn fine sweatshirt. That’s what this is. A pull-over fleece with a hood and draw cords, a pouch pocket and a very naval blue and white thin-striped look. In fact, this cotton/polyester blend sweatshirt doesn’t have much of a description, but Obey has chosen to state it is “ideal for chilly nights on a boat.” Last time any of us spent a chilly night on a boat, all that came of it was a few empty bottles of wine and an unwanted pregnancy, but perhaps had we been wearing this Au Portant sweatshirt (from the French “Au Portant”), things would’ve been different. Likely not, but maybe.

Vaer has been one of our favorite watchmakers for as long as we can remember because they produce new, classic watches based on iconic designs. Case in point, the Vaer G5 Meridian watch you see here. This timepiece is a 1950s-inspired 20ATM automatic watch that’s USA-assembled, dual timezone, built with ocean-ready functionality, self-winding and the brand’s first true GMT (the latest version of their core dive watch design). What’s more, it pays homage to other watches that are incredibly more expensive or hard to come by whilst also adding new aspects that makes this Vaer G5 Meridian watch more desirable than the other options in our opinion.
