Cufflinks

Hi all

I am looking for a point in the right direction here. Looking to buy myself a nice pair of cufflinks as I wear French cuffed shirts every day for work.

I currently wear a pair with a C on them (not particularly expensive or exciting)

Any suggestions would be most welcome. No real budget so all suggestions are most appreciated.

Think the best is to decide what metal and then whether you want a stone, novelty or enamel. Budget is important as silver is as low as £120 (Links) and gold over £5000 at Longmire

gold (or silver) with your monogram...clean & timeless, like a Rolex.

Mont Blanc has some real nice understated examples...

HINT: Thrift stores are my "honey holes" for cool vintage cufflinks.

Happy hunting

The last few I bought were Patek, for my watch, Burberry, for my (and still our) country, and Man Utd, for my team. It's fun to play around with different themes.

For serious cuff links, I don't look past Montblanc.

This ^^^^

I have received cufflinks from The White House, The Supreme Court and from the Diplomatic Security Service at the State Department as well as Her Majesty's Life Guards and London Transit Police.

I love them all but 99.99% of the time when I dress formally, I wear these. A gift from my wife 25 years ago.
