Antoine Preziuso’s Mega Tourbillon is worth $310,000
Known to be one of the world’s largest wrist watch tourbillon, The Mega Tourbillon priced at $310,000 is fabricated by master watchmaker Antoine Preziuso.
Preziuso manufactured this tourbillion to commemorate the opening of his new boutique at the Dubai Burj Al Arab hotel.
Specifications:
- 65 mm watch
- Dial: hand engraved in pink gold
- Titanium and pink gold case
The most striking feature for me has been the use of lighter metal as titanium to make the watch wearable.
Nike sneakers meets the wonder material – carbon fiber
The new Nike Air Max Hyped TB that can almost be called as a follow up to the Aston Martin hyperdunk, takes inspiration from the classic Air Max technology.
This new sneaker features a black carbon fiber strip that runs through the base, heel and tongue along with white leather paneling and, a metallic silver heel pane with NIKE written all over it in large fonts.
Reevu helmet launched with integrated rear-view system
While a rear-view helmet might sound like a technology developed for marines in combat zones, our over congested roads are no better than the war zones where bikers are the most vulnerable. However, Reevu’s MSX1 helmet with an integrated rear-view mirror system will be a lifesaver for everyday commuters and probably for professional racers. To make this all possible, Reevu’s MSX1 helmet relies on an entirely mechanical mechanism rather than rear-view cameras. The innovative technology that took 10 years in development has a built-in 180 degree unbreakable rear-view mirror system that allows the rider to see the road behind, thereby improving the situational awareness. It would be obvious to think that the improved technology would come with added weight, but the Reevu MSX1 helmet is nicely balanced along with the availability of a custom-fit helmet to the owner’s head.
