Watches are to men what purses are to women: an accessory that serves a function (Yes, purses do serves a major function. Don’t believe me? Look into the purse of any mother—there’s tons of stuff in there, including the lost island of Atlantis).
But men, we got watches. Simple, functional, and no place for tissues
This Manhattan by Croton Sports Watch ($24.99 at Overstock.com), is perfect for those of us who like our accessories cheap.
The watch features:
Stainless steel bracelet watch with double safety release, adjustable to the wrist
Croton timepiece features a one hour time lapse bezel
I don’t know what a “bezel” is, but for $24.99, I’ll take that too.
Buy it: Manhattan by Croton Men’s Professional Sport Watch at Overstock.com

What: UNIQLO and Pantone bring new color to cashmere.
The Lowdown: Japan-based UNIQLO is adding a new dimension to its affordable cashmere line, teaming up with Pantone for a new fall color palette. One hundred percent cashmere crewnecks and cardigans for men, retailing for $129.50 apiece, will come in a range of 20 official Pantone colors.
If you want one, though, you may have to make a road-trip: the sweaters will be sold exclusively at the UNIQLO New York flagship, the UT store, and UNIQLO Japan. But for a cashmere bargain, it’d be worth the trip.
