Luxury delivered: The best high-end subscription services

Watch Gang

Designed to help horophiles of all levels discover new brands and build interesting and varied collections, American subscription service Watch Gang will deliver a new timepiece to your door (or dock) each month that can be valued up to five times more than your membership fee. Watch Gang offers four membership levels, starting at $29/month for the original membership and going all the way up to $1,000/month for the invite-only Centum tier with timepieces usually coming from small but good quality brands such as Dufa, Armand Nicolet and Maurice LaCroix. Although members don't choose the watches they will receive, Watch Gang typically offers three watches each month so, once you've signed up and chosen your tier, members are invited to answer a number of questions about their style preferences to help match them to the best watch. And if you're still not a fan? Watch Gang has created an avid online community of watch lovers willing to trade.

A monthly subscription to Watch Gang ranges from $29 to $1,000.

Even for the sartorially savvy, finding the perfect tie can be tricky. Do you go for printed or plain? Knitted or silk? Hermes’ new subscription service, The Tie Society, will help answer these essential questions and provide members with meticulously matched neckwear every month.

In order to join the club, prospective members fill out a questionnaire that gives an insight into their style, indicating colour preferences, ideal lengths and favoured patterns. Hermes’ specialists will then arrange for a custom selection of their ties to arrive at your door.

Subscription options vary between receiving a new tie every month, every other month or once a quarter. The service not only helps members build an exquisite collection but also includes benefits such as free delivery, expert laundering, tie repairs and reshaping and exclusive access to events at the flagship Madison Avenue store in New York City.

Subscriptions to the Hermes Tie Society start from $180.
