We have seen a bunch of amazing timepieces over the last few months, but now it is time to introduce one of the daddy’s, one of the marquee watch brands. The Breitling Transocean Chronograph is one of the best of the current range and is a standout product that offers classic looks mixed with bold stylings.
We have seen a bunch of amazing timepieces over the last few months, but now it is time to introduce one of the daddy’s, one of the marquee watch brands. The Breitling Transocean Chronograph is one of the best of the current range and is a standout product that offers classic looks mixed with bold stylings.
As you would expect from a brand as steeped
in quality as Breitling, the Transocean Chronograph is simply outstanding. This
timepiece features a stainless steel case, convex sapphire crystal with glare proof
treatment on the finish, self-winding mechanics, and a black dial. The Ocean
Classic bracelet harks back to the golden days of watches, while the
chronograph features second time zone (24 hr.), date display, and chronograph
functions. As is the norm with Breitling watches, the Transocean Chronograph is
expensive, setting customers back a cool $9k.
Daft Punk has been making music since the early 1990s, and in that time the electronic act has always bubbled under the mainstream while being mega-cool. Luckily the band has maintained its cool while finding huge success propelled by a kick ass Tron Legacy soundtrack and some fantastic singles.
The band’s latest album, “Random Access
Memories” was released last week and the music is as amazing as ever. One of
the most unique things about Daft Punk is their helmets, and now you can copy
the look with these great Daft Punk Helmets ($500).
These are not band official items, but
unless you need to own official gear you will find these amazing additions to
your home. Finished in chrome with a Lexan visor with tinted finish, the Daft
Punk Helmets look like the real thing worn by the band and on the front they
feature a LED message scroller, so you can add some creativity and wind up your
mates. via
If you are a small (relatively) tuning
company then sometimes you have to go to great lengths to get your work
noticed. This usually means taking an ordinary supercar and adding new
bodywork, angles, and power, and if we are truthful this is not always a good
thing. Gembella, a German tuning company, has been guilty of this in the past,
taking a car and doing the equivilant of giving it Botox, a lip job, and 36DD fake t*ts.
However, the latest effort from the company
is the Gemballa GT Spider which takes McLaren’s 12C Spider and gives it some
bells and whistles. The 12C Spider is one of the classiest supercars on the
road, so Gemballa eased back on the styling and have delivered a beautiful
adaptation of McLaren’s car.
It is worth mentioning that the Gemballa GTSpider ($25,000+) is not an actual car, instead the company will take your
McLaren 12C (yeah we know!) and will add some design flourishes and work under
the hood to give you an improved package. In terms of getting more performance,
Gemballa has decided that leaving the standard 625BHP V8 as alone is best and
instead has added a new carbon fiber aerodynamic package that makes the car
more slippery. There are plenty of colors available too so McLaren drivers
should take a look at what the Gemballa GT Spider has to offer.

Where would men’s fashion be without the humble dress shirt? We are not sure, but what we do know is us guys would not be able to dress as sharply. The Dress shirts is perfect for combining with a blazer for the sophisticated look, or for adding to some jeans to achieve smart casual, in fact the dress shirt is perfect for loads of style ideas.
Maxwell Blythe, a new Kickstarter clothing
company has taken the normal dress shirt and given it a fashion kick, and in
the simplest of manners. This New York based company puts a little strip or
diamond shaped window into the collar so that you can see the different colored stays that are used to offer an accent on the shirt.
The collar stay is basically the piece of
card, wood, or plastic that is used to maintain a collars shape, they are
usually covered but by adding a window the Maxwell Blythe shirts bring a unique flavor to the dress shirt look. The company is currently well on its way to
getting the funding it needs to put these shirts into production, and we will
certainly be first in line to buy one! via
Microsoft launched its brand new home console to the world yesterday. While we were expecting to call it the Xbox 720, it has actually been given the name Xbox One, the One references Microsoft’s aspirations to make this console your one stop shop for living room entertainment.
The Xbox One will be your hub for TV,
Movies, Music, and apps and do not worry this will also be a stunning gaming
unit too. The console will come with a brand new version of the Kinect motion
sensor and will be voice controlled, for example powering up is now voice
activated with a simple “Xbox on” command.
Windows 8 Snap Mode has made the move from
Microsoft’s operating system to the Xbox One($TBA) and just like the desktop
service it will let you see multiple apps and interact with them at the same
time. In terms of specs, the Xbox One is sporting an 8-core CPU, USB 3.0, WiFi
direct, Blu-ray, 500GB HDD, HDMI input and output, and 802.11n wireless.
When playing Call of Duty on your console you have probably thought that your soldiering skills would transfer to the real world. Well, unless you are John Rambo you were probably wrong as shooting on a game is completely different from shooting for real. At least it was until the TrackingPoint Smart Rifle showed up.
This is a precision guided firearm. That
basically means that it takes advanced tracking tech and places it in a rifle.
The technology is in the form of a jet fighter lock and launch system that
allows anyone to hit moving targets at long distances. The gun does most of the
work too, hence the smart in the title, and the user can access a load of info
through the HUD and let the gun do the talking. At a price of $20,000, the
TrackingPoint Smart Rifle is hardly cheap, but then again, advanced technology
never is.
Whether you are alone or with a group, there are times on a beach where you want to jump in the surf but can’t in case some miscreant comes and steals your phone, wallet, or whatever.

Wave goodbye to sitting on the sand while

completely waterproof pocket that will keep your belongings safe and more
importantly, dry! On top of their obvious practicality, the Stash Waterproof

Steel Bent Customs headed by Mike Mundy has been catching our eye of late because they do some kick ass motorbike customs but they like to keep things simple. Take this 1982 Honda CB750 Convertible, a bike that’s charm comes from its simplicity, those elegant lines, and its edgy design.
When you see the 1982 Honda CB750
Convertible you can see the craftsmanship of guys that know what they are
doing, after all Steel Bent Customs pushes out between 15 and 17 customs a
year. This cycle has some real classic street racer lines with a sleek black
and grey spray finish, but we also see that hint of 80s in the fuel tank.
Elsewhere the bike has a screen protected headlight, mono shock springs, and a
unique exhaust. Of course, you will never own it, so enjoy looking at it
instead!
Nike is doing some pretty cool stuff with its sneakers at the moment, but even the sports giant has not yet stretched to making runners for the moon. No, instead the Lunar in the name harks back to the classic silhouette from 1989, which was of course named the Lunar. This being 2013, the guys at Nike have updated this classic shoe with a bunch of modern technology meaning you get that retro cool mixed with huge comfort. The Nike Lunar Peg 89 trainers are due in the Nike store within the next few weeks and you can expect to pay about $150 for a pair. via
City living often means compromising on space, after-all, in major cities there are millions of people jostling for their own piece of real estate. Of course, if you have enough money you can splash out on a luxurious penthouse that will afford you that extra space you have been craving. The Coppin Penthouse by JAM Architects is located in Victoria, Australia and has been designed to create the most spacious and open living space available.
The Coppin Penthouse is a vision of open
plan living that boasts enough floor space to really make the open design
elegant and tasteful; obviously there are no kitchen units next to the bed
here! A semi outdoor sitting area and a gorgeous swimming pool merely add to
the perfection, while also giving the residents the best of that view across
the city.
Mercedes-Benz has been revamping its range of late, which is simply fantastic news for us as we get to see and write about these gorgeous new 2014 “Merc’s”. The latest debutant from the new range of autos is the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class and as you would expect from a flagship saloon, it has it all. By now we know that when Mercedes launches a new saloon that the German marquee pushes out all the stops and the 2014 Mercedes-BenzS-Class is no different.
Luxury and technology abound in this tastefully
designed car. New to the S-Class are LED brake lights that do not blind the
motorist behind you like traditional stoppers, while LED is definitely order of
the day. They interior of the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class features no fewer than
300 LED lights that simply make the cabin somewhere you want to be;
comfortable, charming, and beautiful. Of
course, there are also other luxuries, such as massage and heated seats in the
front and rear and a scent in the air conditioning that offers five different
fragrances.
Under the hood the S-Class will be nippy
enough, but not too blisteringly quick, after-all this is a car to cruise in.
Nevertheless, the V8 motor pumping out 449 horsepower should be plenty for when
you do want to floor the gas pedal.
We love watching videos online, whether it is the latest movie, a music video, or even a cat falling of a chair. Of course, YouTube is the daddy of video sites, but YouTube has become, like, so unoriginal…..man! So we decided to get off the beaten video track and hunt down some new venues, and we found one with bags of potential in the Daily Sraczka.
This new video site shows a whole bunch of
videos under different categories such as humor sports, vehicles, travel, and
a whole bunch more. Videos launch in a dedicated player while we can see a
YouTube like social interaction building up thanks to the robust comments
section.
Daily Sraczka is still a new site, but it
has already got some great videos and the inventory is growing all the time. We
say that this is definitely a video website to keep an eye on.
