Ultimate Toys for Men: Handpicked Masterpieces and Contemporary Luxury - Hardcover

by Bastian Sklarek (Author), Bianca Öller (Author)

The brands and manufacturers presented in this coffee table book stand for authenticity, origin and craftsmanship. Many of them look back on decades, in some cases centuries, of tradition and yet are contemporary because they do not follow the spirit of the times, but help to shape it. From the finely crafted John Lobb shoemaker in London to the iconic Royal Oak by Audemars Piguet, from the calm silhouette of an Anderson & Sheppard suit to the bespoke shaving culture of Larusmiani.

This book is not intended as a shopping guide or status catalog. Rather, it is a visual curatorial compendium that invites you to linger. The selection is deliberately personal and subjective, but never arbitrary: icons from the art of watchmaking, bespoke clothing, automotive culture, stationery, cuisine, grooming, accessories and design.

The Cover shows the beautiful "Uhlenhaut Coupé" (probably the most valuable car in the world) as a model at 1:8 scale.
