IAF veteran designs fighter jet-themed cufflinks & tie pins

Aditya Raj Gupta, an IAF veteran with a spinal injury, has started Life2.0 and teamed up with his wife in her apparel business.

https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/...w/80487853.cms

I checked out his website https://www.militarymarvels.com/ and thought those aircraft themed cuff links and tie pins might be of interest to fellow BHPians. I have ordered a tie pin even though I abhor ties. I will use it to hold my mobile headphone cable so that it doesn't dangle and come in the way.

Disclaimer: I do NOT know Shri Gupta nor am I being paid to promote this. Since he is an ex Fauji I am sharing this out of moral obligation so we can patronise his business and show him our love.

He is in Bangalore and I met him in an event here called Sunday Soul Sante.

He is a good example of, How's the Josh ? High Sir is always the answer. Wonderful products. A must for ones who appreciate these beauties. And must say, quite reasonably priced too.

Re: IAF veteran designs fighter jet-themed cufflinks & tie pins

Thanks for sharing and letting us know about the presence of such a website. I have a craze for high-quality keychains and T-BHP store is out of stock for Key chains. Been checking it daily.

I also happen to have a fascination for fighter jets for their sheer speed abilities and massive torque figures. I also used to make cardboard airplanes of MiG29 using a PDF template which can be printed & cut. They fly brilliantly if made with care. (You can find the template here, if interested)

Coming back to the topic, I did order a MiG 29 Keychain from the site and it was delivered to Hyderabad in 2 days straight. I was skeptical about quality as the website did not have many pictures. But once I've had my hands on the actual product, I'm very satisfied, to say the least.

There is very good attention to detail and the model itself is pretty hard. Not easily bend-able or malleable. The silver coat might get oxidized if exposed to the air, but time will tell. We can prevent it by applying a clear protective coat like a clear nail polish or something similar. I'll wait and see.

I will use this keychain with my future Triumph keys.

Some pics for viewing pleasure

The keychain is designed in such a way that it hangs with its nose elevated when held in the air. How thoughtful !
