DON-Mar-18-Stanton-Watch-Company-gear-patrol-product

Mike Stanton was introduced to watches at a young age and quickly became enamored with the art of a mechanical timepiece. After years of collecting watches, he decided to teach himself the intricacies of mechanical movements by assembling them on his own. After a few years, he took it a step further and began building one-off custom watches for friends and family as a hobby. In 2011, after gaining a reputation for high-quality mechanical timepieces with traditional style and meticulous attention to detail, he decided to launch The Stanton Watch Co.

Each watch is made from many precision parts that Mike Stanton personally assembles to create a sophisticated and finely tuned timepiece. A Stanton Watch is constructed with exactitude, patience, passion and a lifetime of love for mechanical movements.

GUCCI-59mm-Aviator-Sunglasses-gear-patrol-full-lead

Gucci Tinted Aviators
Save 62%:Many sunglasses available today tout loads of features: polarized lenses, titanium frames, photochromic tints, hydrophobic and oleophobic coatings. While all these are certainly valuable, sometimes it’s nice to have a pair of sunglasses that just look good. For example, Gucci makes a simple tinted aviator designed for everyday wear.

While it doesn’t have loads of performance features, the classic metal-frame silhouette comes with various tinted lenses that will compliment a variety of aesthetics. And now at Nordstrom Rack, these Italian-made shades are 62 percent off and cost just $150. So if you’re in the market for a great pair of stylish sunglasses, check these out before they’re gone. — John Zientek

butter pat skillet gear patrol lead full

Butter Pat Industries 12-Inch Cast-Iron Skillet
Save $45 Butter Pat Industries makes skillets you could rightly call modern heirlooms. The cooking surfaces are buttery smooth, they come without machining marks and weigh less than skillets of the same size from other companies. The rounded pour spouts are probably the most effective of any skillet we’ve tested.

Today, the company’s 12-inch skillet is marked down a modest $45. Butter Pat pans don’t go on sale often, so jump now if you want a skillet that can be in your family forever.

nikwax duo pack gear patrol full lead

Nikwax Hiking Boot Care Bundle
Save 25%: It’s nearly that time of year when your ski boots will trade places in the depths of your closet with the leather hiking boots that you laid down there months ago. After so long a time, those boots might be neglected; maybe they’re a bit dry, perhaps they’re still caked in some late autumn mud. This light mistreatment can have consequences over time — the leather might become stiff, cracked or unwearable — but is easily remedied with Nikwax boot treatment solutions, a twin-pack of which is all of $12 right now at Backcountry.

Caring for leather hiking boots is remarkably easy. All you need to do is wash them, condition the leather and bolster its waterproof coating (read our in-depth guide on how to do this here). This bundle includes Nikwax’s Footwear Cleaning Gel, which you should use to take care of that first step, as well as its Fabric and Leather Proof solution, which will revitalize water repellency not just in leather boots but those made of canvas or synthetic materials also. — Tanner Bowden

coway purifier gear patrol full leadCourtesy

Coway Mighty Air Purifier
Save $50 On the cusp of allergy season, a timely deal: the Coway Mighty air purifier is marked down $50 at Amazon.

Recommended by everyone from the Wirecutter to Home Air Guides, the Mighty boasts a four-stage filtration system, washable pre-filter and “eco mode.” It’s not ideal for big rooms — Coway recommends placing it in spaces no bigger than 361 square feet — but it’s the right choice for most bedrooms and city apartments. The Mighty is already significantly less expensive than the competition, and today its discounted below last year’s Prime Day price. —Will Price
