@Brandrea That one is a banger

1985 Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, USA

Hello everyone - I am happy to join this forum. I first discovered this forum when I lived in the USA, but I now reside in Paris.

I purchased my first IH Jacket from Snake Oil Provisions quite a few years ago and then picked up a Good Art Hlywd bracelet from from the IH website.

I recently picked up my Model 10 goosebumps during a trip back to the USA. I was able to try on and see the goosebumps bracelet at the Paris family room during Mens Fashion Week this June before it was released to the public and I knew that I wanted to get it as soon as it was released.

If you get the chance to be in Paris during the Winter or Summer Mens Fashion Week, I highly recommend that you make an appointment with GAH. There are so many great pieces on display, including a number of unreleased prototypes that I won't reveal until GAH does - but they were spectacular.

Here is my Model 10 (15 links on size 16-17 wrist), my GAH collection, and my GAH bag.

If you ever get to Paris, visit Salah at Café Aouba at the Marché d'Aligre

@Oaktavia One option is to combine 2 A size Curb Chains. I have an 18" A size necklace that I sometimes combine with my 17mm A size bracelet (~7.5") that wears just a bit longer that my 24" pop-lock or my 24" Pequeño A Mano
.

The Model 10 size B in 18kt white gold is the ultimate stealth move

@oblivion.sila Everyone has different preferences. The recommended fit from GAH is pretty loose in my experience.

For example my wrist is just a bit over 16cm where I normally wear a watch, but 17cm "down low and snug" as the recommended measuring on their sizing charts. So I have always gone with 17cm. This results in a loose bracelet with a lot of slack. I have a few photos for you to see the recommended GAH fit.

So you could definitely size down one size and be fine, but after that it could get a bit tricky.

Shine or not to shine ... It is great to have options.

@Oaktavia The A size is perfect for a necklace. It "seems" much thicker as a necklaces than when it is on this wrist.

The pop-up is at Savas, they shared a showroom space in Paris during the last mens fashion week. I got measured for the Lowry over shirt while I was at the showroom by Savannah and picked it up later in a trip to the USA, her leather goods are incredible.

My NB 990v6 limited release Paris Olympics Opening Day sneakers from the Paris NB store.

@RobeOfTheMagi I have 17mm wrist with 15 link and it is very loose, 14 links should be a comfortable/loose fit. GAH sizing is for a very loose fit. For example, if you look at the IH sizing guide, they recommended 14 link with 17mm wrist.

@deek That is absolutely crazy. I had a 925 silver bowl by my front door for storing my keys that took 10 years to get that black.

@kaacy1721 They have some new cuffs that are very cool and in all the standard finishes (smooth, desert, goosebumps, etc). I tired them on in the Paris showroom. They are releasing in the spring.

@AdamJ that mixed motif bracelet is fire

@indigostiff I met Savannah in Paris, she is a cool cat. She fitted me for one of their suede over shirts.
