As the world revolves, we understand the importance of time and how we spend it. For this Esquire 10 curation, we present items that make time for the things that matter to you, that much better

1. Visor sunglasses, RIMOWA X MYKITA

These futuristic Visor sunglasses aren’t just eyewear, they’re a fashion statement. Crafted from ultra-light stainless steel and finished with a toric lens shield, they serve up panoramic vision and glare protection. Made for movers, risk-takers, and anyone who prefers their looks with a side of precision, they blur the line between function and fashion. Throw them on and step into the future, because average doesn’t cut it, style-wise.

2. Colour pencils, HERMÈS

The next time you’re reaching for that adult colouring book (there is indeed a judgment-free zone), the only reasonable way to complete a page is with an equally “adult” set of colour pencils. This 14-piece set is housed in a nifty leather pouch that is compact enough to travel around with, which makes whipping out a colour pencil a tad more grown up.

3. Replica Afternoon Delight eau de toilette, MAISON MARGIELA FRAGRANCES

Craving a Parisian cafe moment without the airfare? Maison Margiela’s scent delivers just that, wrapping you in the creamy warmth of sandalwood and the rich sweetness of Madagascar vanilla. A delicate madeleine accord lingers in the background, adding a comforting, nostalgic finish that feels both familiar and indulgent. It’s like sipping coffee in the Marais on a crisp morning. An olfactory escape that turns the everyday into something a little more poetic.

4. Bouncing sneakers, HERMÈS

This is not technically a boat shoe. Part of the Maison’s Bouncing sneaker series, the upper of this particular pair has been replaced with the silhouette of a boat shoe crafted in suede. So does that make this a boat sneaker? Perhaps. All we know is that, this is pretty much the only sartorial exception to wearing a “boat shoe” everywhere else aside from on an actual boat.

5. Galaxy S25 Edge, SAMSUNG

Say hello to the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge—so featherlight, you’ll forget it’s in your pocket. At just 5.8mm thin and 163 grams, this sleek slice of tech is wrapped in titanium and Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2. But don’t let the slim silhouette fool you. It packs a mighty 200MP wide lens for sharper low-light shots, upgraded macro detail, and clever AI tools like Audio Eraser and Drawing Assist. It’s minimalism with a major edge.

6. Meisterstück Around The World In 80 Days Solitaire Legrand fountain pen, MONTBLANC

Inspired by Jules Verne’s iconic tale, Montblanc’s classic pen is a tribute to adventure and artistry. From the smoke-like barrel design to the red heart clip symbolising Phileas Fogg’s romance with travel, every detail nods to Verne’s world. A handcrafted 18k gold nib bears the dates of Fogg’s tour, while a hot air balloon motif recalls Verne’s earliest novel. It’s more than a writing instrument, it’s a literary voyage in precious metal.

7. Bolide bag, HERMÈS

Versatility is key when it comes to making time for the things that matter. This iteration of the classic Hermès Bolide is a niftier and sportier version that easily becomes a perfect urban accompaniment. It’s a workhorse capable of fitting in office essentials, that then seamlessly transitions into a rather elegant crossbody for anything that happens after hours.

8. PX7 S3 headphones, BOWERS & WILKINS

Who doesn’t love slipping on headphones and shutting the world out? (We know we do.) The Px7 S3 wraps your ears in comfort, fitting closer to your head for that just-right feel, while delivering seriously impressive sound. With 30 hours of battery life and full noise cancellation, it’s your all-day ticket to uninterrupted playlists, podcasts, or guilty-pleasure bops, whatever gets you through the day.

9. Belt buckles, HERMÈS

True style savants would know that a belt buckle is an underrated accessory. Not only does it reduce the hassle and space of owning several belts (who needs more than two, really?) a belt buckle is akin to a charm you’d fit onto a bag. Simply switch them out to pair with that dependable Togo leather belt—best if it’s reversible too—for quick and easy changes to suit an outfit or occasion.

10. Blind box collectibles, SMISKI

Among the plethora of blind box collectibles out there, Smiski easily stands out because of its relatively minimalist (and dare we say, chic) humanoid appearance. Each series is themed around a daily activity or event with each collectible within carrying out a specific action. Treat one like a miniature version of you, whether one that’s constantly facing a laptop or deadlifting for maximum gains. They also glow in the dark, if that’s something that thrills you even more.
