Every week, Boss Hunting’s editors spend far too much time scouring the web: in search of the coolest gear, food & drink deals, and destinations worth trekking to across the globe.
In this week’s edition of Good Finds, we’ve got an all-new Polaris Chronograph from Jaeger-LeCoultre, UNIQLO’s Autumn/Winter collection with JW ANDERSON, Leica’s first dedicated 35mm film, a fresh gravel bike from Páramo, and more.

UNIQLO x JW ANDERSON 2024 Fall/Winter Collection
For its latest collection with JW ANDERSON, UNIQLO has taken inspiration from the British coastline in a collaboration that’s perfect for when the mercury begins to drop.
Rugged, nostalgic, and drawing plenty of parallels with classic fishermen’s attire, the range includes diamond-stitched crew neck sweaters, flannel shirts, wide fit jeans, and plenty more. With winter having well and truly arrived Down Under, it’s a collection that’s arrived at the perfect time.
Leica MONOPAN 50 Black-And-White Film
Despite leading the world of fine photography for a century, Leica has never seriously gotten into the business of producing film for its cameras. That is, until now.
Set to arrive in stores in August, the Leica MONOPAN 50 film is the German camera giant’s first true 35mm offering, boasting “ultra-fine grain and super-panchromatic sensitivity” as well as “outstanding sharpness and remarkable tonal value reproduction.”
If you shoot with Leica or love the grainy depth of film photography, this film is one you’ll want to try.
Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Chronograph
For watch enthusiasts, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris Chronograph is likely a pretty well-known quantity, but the latest addition to the dive-focused family takes things to a moody new place. Perhaps inspired by the freezing grey waters of the Baltic sea, it features a new dial crafted using 35 layers of lacquer to achieve an impressive depth of colour that stays well under the radar.
Páramo Integrated Gravel Bike
Finally, anyone who has read my recent buyer’s guide to road cycling will know gravel bikes are the Swiss army knife of the two-wheeled world, and this fresh debut from the team at Scarab Cycles is a beauty. With integrated cables and cockpit via the ENVE In-Route System, the hand-built steel frame is designed to accommodate up to 50mm tires and has been painted with the Tropical Cliché livery inspired by Colombia’s Chocó rainforest.
