10 Essential Men's Jackets You Should Own & How To Match Them With Your Watch

[@TanTran-dr8pj]

TGV is the dude who got married with his wife because she matched his watch. JK I love you TGV

[@dylvasey]

Hahahahahaha

[@tomdiprose4354]

Hi TGV, Please continue to make more of these kinds of videos. You seem to have a wealth of knowledge when it comes to tailoring & clothing and it's great to see you combine that with watches. I thoroughly enjoyed it. All the best, Tom.

[@KevW03]

Phone went off on my bus to work telling me a new video was up. Currently watching on my commute! Morning from Sydney TGV!

[@D3mi4n]

Few channels bridge the gap between classic and modern as the The Urban Gentry does.

[@TheRunningManZ]

I like it! Everyone else is doing Baselworld churn (though some of it is great). TGV ignores the “go to for views” and busts out the fashion.

[@jb6027]

Track Suits: I didn't know that the Russian Gangster look was popular in the UK!

[@agram4700]

It's popular worldwide, blyat!

[@maidpretty]

Nowadays in Russia tracksuits are for local gym or street workout going chads and city chavs, working class gopnik boys and young men from certain neighborhoods and industrial towns, and also for various street-level thugs. Low level gangsters wear leather jackets, while those gangsters who had a thing for magenta suits and gold chains back in the 90s now wear classic business-type dark-coloured suits.

[@Jonsson474]

Russians have no class what so ever.

[@Justin-ml8id]

@Anon what a vulgar statement..

[@rickmarsh9079]

A believe a blue blazer or maybe even a traditional English school blazer should be the cornerstone of a gentleman’s jacket collection! I love all your choices!

[@Warssawwa]

I admire your courage wearing turtleneck and jacket. I personally would be drenched within an hour, even during the winter time.

[@sarabeauvais2636]

I love your style! I am going to try and convince my husband to dress up a bit. Thanks for the video!

[@radioclash84]

Yea do it turn him into an aristocrat.

[@wingi7722]

In my day job (self employed accountant) I need to wear suits. To me, the word "Suit" means it suits you! I do not suit dark drab stuff that is too formal (except tuxedos of course) and I suit colour rather than grey or black. So I wear vintage suits (most older than me). I love narrow lapels (read 1960's) but I managed to score a 1940's silk suit (burgundy shot with green) with a narrow lapel that is a stunner. I got two great suits from the fifties. ..Of course I accessorize with narrow ties (sixties or fifties), the coolest of cuff-links (preferably with wee chains that look like small watch bracelets - from the sixties) and/or jewels in the cuff-links, collar pin, and of course, a cool watch. Love your stuff!

[@seaneno4841]

TGV - Great stuff. I know this particular video was a ton of work to pull off, in terms of planning and editing - not at all "in a jiffy." Thanks so much for your hard work. I love the way you can put essential items in context, and have fun as you go. Thanks for making the world a more gentlemanly place. Lord knows we need it.

[@1Rolinha]

Thank you for such a great video! I am a blue collar guy, and appreciate the the content of this particular video. I am not afraid to admit that I could use a little help in this department. For me, this channel isn’t just about the love of horology, but about self improvement and elevation, and this video is an essential one. These are tips I carry with me throughout my day, and life. Thanks again Governor!

[@theurbangentry]

Always a pleasure Rudy. You comment makes it all worth it. Best regards, TGV

[@ajyoyoyoyo]

that hamilton watch looks so cool

[@Joacimbylehn]

Each to his own of course, but a navy single brested jacket is the single most usefull jacket a man can own. Apart from that, you should really consider sizing up on that first jacket, or letting it out, seeing how the single vent or more than halfway open when it should sit flat. Love the take on watch combinations though!

[@simonhodgetts6530]

Terrific film - pleased to say that I have a similar collection of jackets (I love a jacket). Will you do one on trench coats/duffle coats/over coats?

[@linuslam80s]

I love how open-minded that TGV is in regards to wearing a women's watch. I've been thinking about doing that as well.

[@jarl7229]

Lovely video. I would love to see a house tour when you go around and discuss items through out the tour like art pieces and things like that!

[@rust2985]

Who knew there was such thing as a controversial rain jacket! 😂

[@cecedabo]

Just bought a Rolex Explorer 214279 because of you and adore it! Keep the good work up! Greatings from Luxembourg

[@theurbangentry]

Congrats, enjoy your watch honeymoon! I am excited for you :D Thank you for sharing that Cedric. Best regards, TGV

[@suncity22001]

nice watch , im between that and a millguass, cant decide...maybe it will be both!

[@cecedabo]

Underdog Milgauss was too big for me l, but cool watch nevertheless

[@socrispy7114]

I am 31 years old and I have never worn a dress jacket nor have I ever worn a suit, I do live in Australia though and this was fun to watch.

[@petershallis2294]

Excellent video. Not quite in your remit here, but over the winter I discovered the absolute joy of down filled jackets...how come nobody ever told me about this! , even in the harshest of British weather they are almost TOO warm..

[@royalgoose921]

I love when you do timeless classic fashion or just quality items to invest in.

[@ficko88]

You certainly know your style. Stone island + Breitling is my pick of the bunch!

[@borghese84]

I love the way you switch from a typical british accent to an on the spot italian pronunciation. Good job man, keep it up!

[@lordphilbert3838]

Italian is actually his first language. He mentioned it in an old FAQ

[@waimoo1]

I really enjoy watching your videos, please continue to diversify your video content. And Barbour clothing I can highly recommend, particularly the waxed jackets!

[@TheWayofGrace89]

Just got my new waveless-dial Omega Seamaster Professional Ceramic in blue 41mm one month ago. Been loving it so far! Just thought you might like to know that review of it in black, as well as the midsize version you had helped me decide on it as my only mechanical luxury watch. Perfect everyday wear! Cheers.

[@theurbangentry]

Wow, congrats Taylor, you must be extremely chuffed with it. So glad I could help in any way, enjoy and thank you for taking the time to post that, it makes me happy to hear of your success. Best regards, TGV

[@TheWayofGrace89]

The Urban Gentry My bits are .. so chuffed. Lol.

[@brianmason744]

What a dope video...thanks I have weddings to attend and my wardrobe is dusty...I like these idea s and will definitely take the poi ters....Dapper indeed!

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Brian, you are very kind to say so. I hope you have a great time at the wedding. Best regards, TGV

[@jamesgeraghty1659]

Love to see your content branching out! Best regards, James

[@stuartweyman2642]

Great subject perfectly executed. I would like to add the classic navy blue blazer to the mix , single or double breasted it does not matter. They are just so very versatile.

[@mehrdadbiglary8202]

I like your videos that are about fashion & style . please make those again

[@freddie8354]

That Velvet Jacket and the Cartier Tank were so beautiful !

[@benjaminbarrera214]

Living in southern California, I have no use for those cold-weather jackets. I tend to wear colored blazers, green, blue, plum, etc. with my 40s Omega bumper, black 50s Wyler, or my 90s Hamilton Ventura. I've love the 'Mad Men' look so a watch popular in the early 60s will work for me.

[@wpherigo1]

Great to see you dipping back into your channel's roots. Glad that your encourage your viewers to dress nicely. Thanks!

[@AdamLeask]

Looking forward to your review of the G-Shock Mini. After seeing your Christmas video, I went and ordered myself one out of Japan. It's an awesome little watch for the price!

[@Grayson_Maugham-Talbot]

Quite a refreshing selection. Enjoyed the variety!

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you GMT (I hope you don't mind) You are a true gent for saying so. Best regards, TGV

[@05Rudey]

I have a few favorite jackets, Smart Casual I have 2 Barbour's, A light quilted Chelsea jacket in black and a olive green waxed jacket, the same one that James Bond wears in Skyfall. For Dressing up I have a Burberry raincoat and 2 Tweed jackets, 1 light grey and 1 dark, both Harris Tweed, the 2 jackets I wear the most, my every day jackets: a military style cotton jacket by GAP in their trade mark khaki sand stone (lots of pockets for when I take the dogs for a walk) and a North Face Fleece in grey, the best all round jacket here in the UK, especially this time of year as it's both wind proof and shower resistant. For hiking, I also have a North Face Highland Jacket, when paired with the North face Fleece, I'm good for -20°C Scotland winter hikes. On the shopping wish list, Baracuta Harrington G4, Belstaff Trailmaster and a Lewis Leathers Biker Jacket.

[@micostark7642]

Air max 90s and stone island! You got a hypebeast side as well! Haha

[@bmjengland4966]

Brilliant Episode TGV, i appreciate the Effort gone into making this.. I’m a sucker for Coats & Jackets Etc.. So I really enjoyed this one.. I was only checking out Stone Island in Flannels yesterday as it happens.. Great Video Sir... Great to have you back on board.. BMJ ENGLAND.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@ssslovak47]

Everything it looks proper on point except the adidas tracksuit with nike shoes. Much better if you picked the same brand as the tracksuit. But its not a big deal. I love your style and your videos.

[@ΠαῦλοςΠαυλίδης-χ7θ]

Great style TGV similar to mine.I recently bought a citizen ecozilla (bj8050) its an AMAZING watch!!!And i really enjoy it! The quality is amazing like a 2000€ watch and it only costs 200€ (=224$).

[@heikowallauer]

I love my Harrington Jackets - fits with Chinos or Jeans and with Divers and dressier watches. And I love my black Pilots Jacket, this goes with Chronos of all kind. But maybe I should get also a Flightmaster ?

[@chiliprepper7678]

I was hoping for a new posting today. I was rewatching the "5 years with the Submariner" video and see that you have posted. 😀 Back on the Rolley Sub train for me!. 👍Bier and 114060 on the porch in the Sun. Life is getting better again. Just keep working my butt off. Cheers to the Gentry. 💝⌚🍷🍺👍

[@theurbangentry]

That is the spirt my friend, congrats again! Best regards, TGV

[@TheDude4077]

13:24 You've got good taste in film too! This is England is one of my favorite films of the 2000's, a bit hard to revisit though since it's always such an emotional experience.

[@vintagej7379]

Can't lie you got style TGV well done

[@NonyaDamnbusiness]

One thing most American citizens don't notice about a nice suede sports jacket is that it's *quiet* and conceals a Glock pistol with short suppressor in a custom shoulder holster rather nicely, and when done properly allows for carry of up to 60 rounds of 9mm in only 3 Glock magazines for when you find yourself in the middle of a downtown Kansas City gangland-style shootout and need to absolutely, positively put an end to everyone engaging in such heathenish behavior lest they injure your date for the evening. Thuggish behavior like that just won't do and tends to put me off my dinner until it's properly finished, as per my family's custom of everyone bearing a weapon in anger that is not me is no longer moving. While still a very rare occurrence, it does tend to happen from time to time, especially during the autumn months and that's where a nice, dark suede jacket truly shines. When I go jacket shopping I always take care to wear the holster so I can make sure it all fits properly and doesn't get in the way of the draw. That's the real key to any clothing purchase a Gentry Gunfighter might make - nothing can interfere with the draw, ever. Be it a sports coat, dinner jacket, concealed plate carrier, nagging girlfriend, or rambunctious canine, nothing can ever interfere with the draw. Ever. Same with shopping for slacks, jeans, and khakis that fit properly with IWB holsters. For while I normally wear 30-30 sized pants as you do (twins!), I will switch to 31-/32-30 or khakis with a hidden elastic band waist when utilizing an IWB holster and magazine carrier. As for watches, just ensure they all have decent shock resistance if they're worn on your shooting wrist, otherwise any fine timepiece will do. Depending on the job at hand, once may elect for a non-reflective PVD-coated watch, and if working at night, a good Tritium watch is a must. As always, wear it in good health - or else. v/y The Gentry Gunfighter

[@michaelmartinez6437]

Thank you from Houston Tx USA

[@lanceuppercut7436]

Hi TGV. I always enjoy your videos involving not only watches, but other items essential to the aspiring Urban Gent. I have to admit that I hardly ever wear jackets here in Perth, Western Australia, given it really doesn’t get that cold for me to warrant wearing one that often. I do have to ask you, have you ever owned a pair of Doctor Martin’s Boots (good old ‘Dockers’)? I can see you in a pair of them. I love mine and my wife has a pair that are now 29 years old! She takes impeccable care of them. Fantastic and iconic brand.

[@eastwestminds]

I have that same harrington jacket you have except mine is forest green & I have a khaki one as well. Excellent video TGV, cheers

[@eastwestminds]

I’m also looking to buy a neptune once the preorders are done! An excellent pairing indeed.

[@malemus123]

Hey TGV have you seen the new release of the Orient Bambino now in 36mm? And what are your thougts about it!

[@DMBVR4]

Try out Filson mackinaw wool cruiser.... you'll fall in love.

[@msufiyan]

Those are some wonderful and classy jackets sir. Your fassion game is on point. Pure class. Regards, MS.

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you so much MS, You are a gent for saying so. Best regards, TGV

[@Gerslad99]

Enjoyed the video but surely the CP Mille Miglia should’ve got a mention seeing as it’s the only jacket that has a watch viewer in it’s sleeve.

[@marcfavero1255]

well finally the extension of a good watch ;) thx tristano (Marc from France)

[@goaztecs7549]

I finally bought Floris #89 and absolutely love it! Thanks for bringing that amazing fragrance to my attention. Cheers!!!

[@AdamMiller1491]

Your intros are golden. Please don't ever change your style 👍

[@mikesisto4053]

I love my Thursday chukkahs. I got them at their boutique in flatiron. I think you’ll like them as well in due time!!

[@adamrassi3516]

Great showing of style. The Stone Island jacket really caught my eye but unfortunately, they don't have tall sizes. I was a little surprised that you wear Levis. They are good jeans but much better choices with a bit more style. Check out Joe's jeans and the Brixton line. Slim fit but their denim is so soft and luxurious. They are ~$200 a pair but last a decade even when worn regularly. Check them out if you have not heard of them.

[@cmrndrgn]

TGV, Your insight on this, and other fashion forward topics is much appreciated. It is quite clear that your knowledge and passion for style does not stop at watches. Keep it up! I think I speak for many of us when I say we are all captivated by your brand recommendations and history of design. Warm regards, Cameron

[@AGoodVibe]

Perfect timing. Been needing a sports coat for a year now. Time to take the plunge!

[@discingaround]

I was definitely missing your other style tips TGV. I really appreciate the advice because I'm absolutely terrible with matching and layering clothing. Thank you so much for the suggestions, Sir!

[@6-10noir]

Great video as always! I really like the Corduroy jacket and trenchcoat. I’m thinking of getting a tweed jacket it just looks so dapper.

[@sonnyredbull6]

jacket's are pulling when buttoned, too small for your current weight. need to step up on size.

[@mehditalib]

I think he tailored them , just undo that

[@bradleykelly7289]

Yes I thought the same

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Talib, you are spot on. Best regards, TGV

[@sureshobhan]

Loved the video mate.....!!!!

[@ricardochaveste7367]

Since I leave in Southern Utah my brand of shoes is Dr Martens made in England or Uggs I have total of 65 leather Jacket of all kind mostly browns colors or tan is my favorite color mostly for everything I wear Swiss Army titanium chronograph very stylish in my opinion..

[@jc944t]

I like the combination of classic British and American brands. Well done sir!

[@kjeldpedersen666]

Hi TGV Yes, matching is everything. Where it really gets interesting is where you take it to the limit without breaking the rules. I admit that’s a bit abstract...but I’m sure you know what I mean😂 Style is a very difficult subject, but you surely have it under control mate... My favorite in my personal wardrobe might be my grey windbreaker jacket combined with my 70’s Omega Cosmic with a similar grey dail. A fairly modern sport like jacket and a (very) 1970’s watch. That’s no match, is it? Yes it is, because of that dail match - and because the watch looks kind of futuristic. I’m probably the only person who think so...no one has ever commented this. But you have to feel satisfied yourself first of all😉 “I don’t particularly wish to look like a member of Run DMC”....hah, hah😂 Keep up the good work👍

[@ryanz76]

Never hurts to get a lesson in style.... :)

[@johnt2257]

Hey tgv another great topic they really help me when I'm puting together different outfits Thanks

[@TaswcmT]

02:44 What makes these jackets is the velvet details on the collar and breast pocket - together with the pattern it makes for a very classy piece of clothing.

[@koen8844]

I really like the down to earth, casual style 👌. Style without smugness. I would like to suggest a nice parka during the colder months of the year. Looking forward to the next one. Regards, Koen

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you Koen, great idea. I will have to do a winter edition later in the year ;-) Best regards, TGV

[@johnnyk.3039]

Great video. Good to mix it up here and there with this sort of content. Good show old boy! Cheers.

[@lshin80]

Dark brown Harrington or leather jacket paired with my brown fedora is a must for me!

[@maschketa]

I really like how calm, soft and gentle you spoke in this video. A little bit of ASMR ;)

[@sparshrastogi2646]

This video is dripping class. My style is similar to yours. Great video, you should try moonlighting as a model :D

[@EVILSPAWN1003]

Nothing better than my Adidas hoodie and 116610LN Subby. Colourmatched with my pitbull TYSON and my Glock 19

[@dannyrobinson9725]

Love a classic leather jacket and the Harrington's! Fantastic review TGV......good to see you branching out. Just bought a Tudor black bay 36mm, so keep up the watch reviews👍

[@ThatKiddmg]

I’m very excited to have just booked to go to New York for a week in the summer with the family and my girlfriend! Besides the obvious tourist attractions and sights, is there anywhere or anything you think is a must whilst I’m there? It’s the first time I’ll have been and likely won’t be going again for many years, so I want to make the most of the trip! Great video as always T, nice to see some sartorial content from you like in the early days of the channel! Hope to see more videos soon, keep it up sir. Thanks, Oli

[@dano8799]

[@farshidrahmani6262]

Great choices- matching watches too! I get more compliments on my leather, Harrington and suede bomber jacket than anything else. Cheers

[@jordub]

just ordered a harrington. Thanks TGV!

[@King_Harrold]

Sadly being in the UK, I see Stone Island and I think Chav. A bit like Burberry caps. Wool overcoats Tweed jackets Barbour waxed tailored jacket They are my go to. Goes with my style which is smart casual at work and jeans / Chino and plain tee at weekends.

[@jacksonk75k95]

Was literally thinking of jackets to buy this morning

[@frankrizzo7185]

Enjoyable video tgv, thank you. For the hot summer, I found perlon watch straps are the best with their open weave.

[@theurbangentry]

A pleasure, I could not agree more about the perlons in summer. Excellent point, thank you. Best regards, TGV

[@CJinSoCal]

wow this is new 😬 quite dashing 👌🏼

[@real_fjcalabrese]

I have a Daks topcoat. Since I live in Tucson, I wear it maybe one week during the year.

[@konsept011]

[@kraftyw1999]

Another fashion video! Love it and love to see the content diversifying!

[@Lycosa]

I love Stone Island too, it's great. and BARBOUR! YES! I'm going to get a Barbour waxed jacket ASAP. Love both brands. Too bad the football hooligans have given SI some negative connotation.

[@johnclement7621]

Yes my friend ... yes ... Osti in your life !!!!

[@barneyh7014]

The stone island for when tgv has a video to shoot at 9 and Millwall away at 3. Seriously though they are good jackets.

[@jwags24]

I love the change up in content ! You deserve your own Netflix show. Also, those new balance are slick.

[@theurbangentry]

Thank you so much sir, very much appreciated. Best regards, TGV

[@MisterKnightly]

Excellent content. I was worried this was going to be ten different blazers, but I was very pleasantly surprised. I have a honey suede leather trucker jacket from Banana Republic which just rings my bell every time I wear it.
