1. A Great-Looking Watch

A man can dress plainly, but if he has a great watch and a stunning fragrance (covered below) then he's set.

The issue with watches is the sheer volume of watch styles – how do you make the right choice? By knowing your options.

There are two key men's watch types: automatic and quartz. The former is powered by the geartrain – a complex mechanism backed by centuries of tradition. The latter is powered by a battery – solid, accurate, but dismissed by enthusiasts.

You can tell the difference by looking at the speed of the second hand.

What about aesthetic styles? Here's a brief summary:

  • Pocket watch: Classic style held by a chain and worn inside the waistcoat pocket.
  • Dress watch: Simplistic design made for formal wear.
  • Aviator watch: Originally designed to make pilots' lives easier with features like a GMT and fuel gauge.
  • Dive watch: Made to deal with high pressure at low depths.
  • Racing watch: Traditionally flashy and comes with a tachymeter.
  • Field watch: Designed for battle and the rugged outdoors.
  • Digital watch: The time is displayed with digits.
  • Smartwatch: Like your smartphone… but on your wrist.

There's no question that a great watch is an alpha male's status symbol.

2. Masculine Fragrances

What can a fragrance do for you? Boost your confidence, get you compliments, get you noticed, and draw in the ladies. Most importantly, they can be an extension of your own personality.

We can spend days discussing men's cologne, but our focus today is masculinity – which fragrances make you smell like a badass?

John Varvatos - Dark Rebel Rider cologne fragrance

Dark Rebel Rider is a popular masculine fragrance.

Here are four options:

  • Original Musk by Khiel: Smells like original deer musk, which is recreated synthetically. It's primal to its core.
  • Pure Malt by A*Men: Made to honor the Scotch Whisky industry – it smells like whisky with fruity undertones.
  • Tobacco Oud by Tom Ford: A powerful combination of whisky and tobacco.
  • Dark Rebel Rider by John Varvatos: Made for the Harley riders out there, with leather dominating the scent.

3. Custom Clothing

Fit is king for alpha males. You would be better off wearing a mid-range suit that fits you perfectly than a $2,000 one that makes you look as though you were consumed by a trash bag.

How a suit conforms to your body and compliments your proportions is a key indicator of your status. This may take time and a skilled tailor, but it will serve you well.

These gentlemen have different suits – but they all look great because the fit is spot on.

What are the main things to consider? First, think of the Style Pyramid: Fit, fabric, and function. Does it fit you well? Is the fabric suited for formal or casual wear? Is it practical for your climate and your requirements?

Secondly, we have the all-important Interchangeable Wardrobe. Navy, charcoal, and dark brown are superb choices because they function in various situations. You can take these to an office or pair the jacket with some jeans for a night out. Furthermore, you can pair them with most dress shirts regardless of pattern. My recommendation is to start with your standard whites and light blues.

4. Quality Footwear

Much like a watch or a fragrance, the shoes you wear draw attention – What sort of attention depends solely on you.

The realm of quality men's shoes can be daunting, so we'll start with a few basic (but essential) morsels of information.

The one pair of shoes that should be in every man's wardrobe is black balmoral Oxfords. They are sleek, elegant, and infinitely interchangeable. These shoes will serve you in the office or a night out.

The difference is easy to spot once you know what you're looking for.

How do you know if it's an Oxford? Simple – an Oxford has a closed-lacing system. This is where the vamp is sewn over the quarter, making for a sleeker appearance. Otherwise, it's either a Blucher or a Derby.

5. Your Posture

Believe it or not, good posture is a cornerstone of the alpha male mentality. When you see a man standing straight, you immediately think he's powerful and has his sh*t together. Slouching, head forward? You think he's weak (even though he probably isn't).

The difference here is that bad posture is seldom easy to fix. It's a medical condition that manifests in different ways. One common example is in the neck; Forward Head Posture (FHP) shows itself when your head always looks pulled forward.

There are plenty of ways to fix it gradually, though. Solutions are often as simple as buying a chair with better back support or going for a daily swim.

 

6. Your Entourage

The men (and women) you surround yourself with have a powerful impact on your perception as an alpha male.

Having a group of friends can yield a myriad of benefits. Besides the obvious sense of brotherhood and bonding, being with them in public tells people you are socially accepted – that you aren't an outcast. On top of that, being the best-dressed man can let others know that you're the pack leader.

When others accept you, you gain social prestige.

Having women in your group is a sound strategy. The big benefit, though, is that you unequivocally show that other women like to hang around you.

 

7. The Power of Body Language

Whole books exist about the utility of body language and we won't get to it all now. What we will discuss is the power behind open body language.

Using relaxed, open body language will help you become accepted.

This comes down to maintaining a simple approachable look: Don't cross your arms or keep your hands in your pockets. Don't face away from the person you're speaking to. Use slow, deliberate movements. These subtle changes will make you look friendlier and more approachable.

 

8. An Eye-Catching Jacket

For casual wear, the alpha male stands out by mastering the jacket: Leather, suede, or sports jackets can all benefit you in this endeavor.

The latter is perhaps the most overwhelming. After all, what even is a sports jacket? It's a coat styled to look like a suit jacket but for casual wear. They come in all colors and shapes – and you just need to choose what you identify with. Experiment with checks – Glen checks and windowpane are classic options that catch the eye without being ostentatious.

sports jacket

Start with a sports jacket that fields an interchangeable color and pattern.

I would even choose suede over leather. Loads of guys wear leather, but few are brave enough to embrace the suede. This is a great way to introduce texture to your casual looks and stand out from the crowd.

9. Summer Bod

I hate to say this, but it's time to hit the gym. When you think of an alpha male, you think of a man with broad shoulders, strong arms, maybe a six-pack?

It's a bit much to ask for all men to get chiseled abs, but the others are doable. Gentlemen, it's as simple as going to the gym for an hour every day. Integrate some exercise with your daily routine, and you will begin to see results over a few months.

5-day weeks are solid workout routines.

Does science back it? You bet. A study published in The Royal Society undertook a massive survey of 160 female students – not one deviated from wanting the muscular man.

 

10. Performance In The Bedroom

Eventually, things are going to get steamy, and the alpha male doesn't stop short of pleasing his lady. This means having a soldier that can get the job done to your (and her) satisfaction.

Unfortunately, Erectile Dysfunction affects 1 in 5 men over 40. Fortunately, there are services out there that can help revitalize your manhood.
