Tan France from 'Queer Eye' Teams up with Arvo Watches

I think that any of us ‘Queer Eye’ fans with a penchant for menswear have coveted Tan France’s style from time to time. He’s so chic, but in an effortless way.

He manages to find really great pieces at low-cost stores (Think Target, ASOS) and wears them like they are designer items.

How does he look so good all the time? Well, he often goes bold in his patterns, which signals “fashion connoisseur.” He also takes very good care of his clothes — as you can see, nothing is wrinkled, and his white shirts are completely white. I’m guessing he air dries everything too.

Beyond that, he just has a “je ne sais pas” about his style. I just don’t know how he does it. Luckily, when it comes to watches at least, now we don’t have to.

Tan teamed up with Arvo watches on a bold limited edition set to help bring some more oof to our wardrobes. With a "Street" watch and an "Evening" watch, the set works with a wide range of styles. Pre-ordering is now available, with an expected ship date of November 12, 2018.

Arvo wrote, “We wanted to push the envelope with Tan to design something different and new while keeping our minimalist aesthetic.” I think they definitely succeeded! “Tan put a sleek spin on his favorite all-gold dial and paired it with a dark chocolate brown, crocodile band. The second watch in the set is a comfortable, black and white patterned, athletic band with white accents.”

The watches are so distinct, that they almost look odd side by side. But I like it. If you’re going to wear two watches regularly, you want them to be different!

Arvo is giving Qwear readers %15 off everything on their site with code QWEAR742. (Code expires Nov 11.)

The set normally costs $179.95, and our code will bring it down to just about $75 per watch.
