Bespoke Post ships uses a variety of methods. This box shipped via UPS Mail Innovations and took just under a week to arrive.
B made this selection before he left for his trip and seemed really excited about it. I actually thought all of the options were great this month.
The January 2016 Bespoke Post“Moment” box included the following items to help you organize your day and make sure your style is on point:
~Line of Trade Sanford Wristwatch ($75 in Bespoke Post Shop): B is really into watches, but I just wasn’t sure if he’d go for the watch option with this one. But he did and I am thrilled. First some specs on this watch: the band is genuine leather and the water resistance is “5ATM” which from the sounds of it you could wear it in the rain, but don’t think about showering or swimming in it. The face is 40mm, meaning it’s substantial, but not giant. For reference, Apple watches come in 38mm and 42mm. I personally think the larger the better when it comes to Men’s watches (and watches in general), but I know not everyone thinks that. This watch isn’t heavy and would serve you well as an everyday time piece without any issues. For $75 (the price this sells for in the Bespoke Post shop), I am impressed.
~Bespoke Post Task Organizer: I can’t see B using this task organizer, but I am all over it. Each page has a preprinted checklist to help keep your “To-Dos” all in one place. You could divide it up by week (it has 36 pages) or even by month.
I don’t think you could go wrong with any of the options this month, but I love Moment! I think it was a great value and the quality was very impressive for the $45 price tag of the box.

Just FYI – 5ATM is equivalent to pressure for up to 50 meters of water. This watch is fine for swimming.
Thank you! The Bespoke site said no showering or scuba diving. I assumed nothing in between either. Maybe they just meant the soap?
