It is a popular saying that to increase one's financial fortune, one should buy a new wallet every year. This may be a kind of placebo effect, and in this age of sustainability, it is not a very praiseworthy practice. For the wise reader, I would rather recommend an exceptional wallet that cannot be changed in a year or two. If you spend a lot of money on a wallet, you will not mistakenly neglect it, and you will inevitably take better care of your money, which will lead to better luck with your money.

The Citizen Twill watch uses Vaux Swift calfskin, named after Jonathan Swift, the author of the children's book "Gulliver's Adventures," for the body. It is characterized by a fine grain and appears flat from certain angles. Hermès itself calls it "extremely supple leather," and its touch is on another level. Combined with the printed silk lining, it is the ultimate in luxury.
The MC2 Copernicus is based on the motif of a jockey's jacket, the Cossack, and is said to be made of seven pieces of leather sewn together. This painstaking craftsmanship is another charm of "Hermes". The small-grain calfskin feels soft against the hand.
The highlight of the Zip 'n Go is the zipper top in the shape of an "H". It is a good size for pinching and makes you want to open and close it even if you have nothing else to do. The small-grain calfskin used for this bag is also supple from the moment it is unrolled, and it will take on an elegant sheen with use.
