Hamilton Indiana Jones Boulton watch
This is the watch that Harrison Ford is wearing throughout Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny. Although Dial of Destiny is set in the late 1960s, the look was initially introduced in 1941. The Hamilton Boulton flaunts period-correct touches while seamlessly integrating modern proportions in this newest iteration. Serif-style numerals sit solidly on the white dial, which also features a small second subdial at 6 o’clock. The stainless-steel case is tall and slim, has a pronounced crown, and fits on a textured calf leather strap. At a more-than-affordable $695, it’s a lovely period-looking piece with a conversation-starter film tie-in.
Pair with Indy Alden 405 boots.
These are the boots that Harrison Ford has worn in all the Indiana Jones films. They were his own from when he worked as a carpenter in his pre-actor days and decided they were also suitable for his iconic screen character. Founded in 1884 by Charles H Alden in Massachusetts, the Alden company has been going for over a century, and these calf-leather boots are comfortable from the first day you put them on. A pair will set you back around Dhs3,500 but will last a lifetime and look better with age.

Thom Browne cardholder
Wallets can ruin the line of your suits, and rather than carry a chunky wallet in your pocket, a slim and stylish card holder is a great alternative. Thom Browne’s cardholder is made from hard-wearing pebble-grain leather and has eight card slots and a note pocket. It’s minimally detailed with the brand’s signature grosgrain tab and subtle gold branding, so it’ll set the right tone when settling up.
