Bianchi Bike helmet by Gucci.


Bianchi has teamed up with  Gucci to create this rather fashionable head wear for your bicycle. Notice the company namesake colours caressing the, the uppermost part  of said head wear.

I would be tempted to take up the sport but I am rather lacking in the coordination department.

Price 630.00 EUR

Cartier.


CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Whilst I could easily, and with obvious good reason, burst into a full-on hyperbolic harangue expounding upon the virtues of the storied Cartier firm, their luxury goods and, with all due deference to this particular post, the Santos-Dumont model, I will refrain from going ape shit and simply say for the record that this watch is a perfect example of “Heroin Chic”.


I could not have quoted this better myself. Additionally the strap is Alligator black.

The Heretic by Autum.


I always thought to my self why would I want a coffin. That is really throwing money away, besides they will dig you up soon and make way for a new mall.


However this is what I call useful. Created from an 18 Gauge, Steel Coffin, and tirelessly hand made by Autum.


This is a sexy sofa, and one which earns the title Urban

Price: circa, 3,300 Euros.

The Emperador Coussin Tourbillon


Piaget will be debuting, this delightful Tourbillon watch at The Salon Internationale de la Haute Horlogerie. which will take place on the 17th- 21st of January in Geneva, Switzerland.


Now if I were to wear this watch I would not have a clue as to what time it is, that would seem besides the point.  Would like to point out that this watch can be worn up to 30 meters below water. Still trying to think why this would matter, unless of course you fell off a yacht.


Expected price: 250.000 Euros.

Bentley/Astor & Black


Well Bentley and the  suit firm Astor & Black have teamed up in a way that harps back to a time gone by. Astor & Black will provide you with a custom made suit free of charge if you drive out of the showroom with a new Bentley. Only applies If you happen to reside in the States or Canada.


I took the time out  tocheck out their wares , I must admit I would be  by the tailors a long time until they were able to make something worthy of the name tailor made. They seemed a bit lacking in the creative department. Maybe that is why the offer is limited to North America. Just saying.


(Then again unless a gun was involved I would not be driving out of the show room with a new Bentley)
