    That's super!

    The only thing I have that's remotely similar is my Dr Jones outfit with original 1920s/1930s glasses, cufflinks, watch fob, and pen, the rest being modern bespoke items.

    I especially like the detail of your Victorian watch fob! It's sometimes the things that others don't see that can make an outfit special.

    For Dr Jones I invented the backstory that in 1926 he made the train trip to Chicago to attend the 28th Annual Eucharistic Congress, the first time on US soil, which attracted a million people. A commemorative watch fob was a widely-sold souvenir. It has a lovely depiction of the Grail with beams of light shining from it, like one of the illustrations in his Grail Diary, which surely must have appealed to him.
