I am quite a self-confessed movie buff and I watch more movies than I blink. So even if the Movie trunk is a hideous orange I do love it. The people back at Pinel & Pinel of France have come up with an innovative idea called the Movie Trunk. It includes highly acclaimed Bang & Olufsen Beolab 6000 subwoofer, two Beolab 3 speakers, BeoVision 6-26 television, and the DVD1 DVD/CD player. This fold out home theatre system is covered...

Being rich has its benefits and benefits galore. In case of Chelsea soccer club owner Roman Abramovich, owning the 377 ft. Pelorus, 282ft Ecstasea and 160ft Sussurro which are all super-cool yachts wasn’t good enough. He is trying to feel happier by investing $400 million to put a smile on his face in the form of The Eclipse, the 550 ft long yacht equipped with its own submarine and ,believe it or not, a missile defence system. The Eclipse,...

The Porsche design cellphone is blessed with killer looks and a web connection that relies on WiFi rather than a 3G network. It’s nowhere close to the speedy image of Porsche but you are still in a winning position with a 5 Megapixel camera, a touch screen interface, and built in GPS. I am a Porsche lover well aware of the fact that my dream of zooming around the city in my yellow Porsche is just that…a dream. So...

I bow my head to this wonder called FH001 Horn Speakers. I am totally besotted by its low key appeal. It’s got nothing to amaze as such but it does that with absolute ease. British hi-fi specialists Ferguson Hill can now lay claim to not only some of the best sounding speakers in the high-end audio market, but also the most uniquely designed. The guy had a lot of matter up there and that has been proved in the...

If the not-real-at-all Steampunk Bluetooth set had amused you then its amusement time yet again with another unearthly creation coming from the Steampunk stable. This time they have laid their bets on the sort of sought-after Ray-Blunderbuss. You may fall in love with this at first sight if you come from a family of hunters or if you are a fan of crazy Steampunk stuff. Either way you are weird but we are not complaining. This world needs someone...

Picture this…a really huge, (when I say huge I mean as huge as it can get) ship barely manages to sail its way out of the dock and it’s not about the fact that it was close sail but about the magnitude of the ship and that is a big deal literally (see picture!). It did manage to make everything around it look emaciated and humans could well be called ants. The 315m-long ship is so wide it barely...

Arvus Prerenaissance is a loudspeaker, a good one at that with a difficult name. The New Zealand Company Arvus has unveiled their Prerenaissance loudspeakers, as the culmination of 25 years of speaker development. Ok, so though its not pleasing everyone’s design sense (including mine) it does have a lot many reason to be called likeable. Starting from the bottom up, the plinth is made from hand carved granite. Four chambers house a quasi-five-way design. I dunno what that is...

Hip, all the rage and rocking! That’s something BoomCooler already is and that is also something you will be, once BoomCooler is yours. It will up your cool quotient and also be your new-fangled reason of endless boasting. The BoomCooler essentially packs a car stereo into an ice chest which obviously does not stock your beer or beef. On the contrary it features a CDX-GT320 AM/FM radio and CD Player, two 6” x 9” 240 Watt Max 4-Way Speakers,...

Life isn’t all about impressing people but if you have more money than u need and don’t know where to spend it, then may be Grande Utopia EM speakers may do the trick of ripping you apart and the great impression is a given. This 4-way, floorstanding bass-reflex loudspeaker is a dream for every music lover and if you aren’t one then you will be after this stupidly expensive speaker makes its way into your space. It offers a...

Its one of the most beautiful watches ever Crafted in scratch-resistant sapphire, the white unidirectional rotating bezel avoids any risk of accidentally prolonging the dive time, while its slightly raised and ratcheted design helps to limit any potential shocks. This new steel Fifty Fathoms Automatique is powered by self-winding Calibre 1315 with 35 jewels and a power reserve of 120 hours....

Scholtès is on seventh heaven thanks to the accolades coming their way. After the very wanted drink machine they are introducing an awfully cool wine cooler (pun intended). The cooler offers 284 bottle capacity, divided between the 267 bottle ageing compartment with wines stored at preset self-regulating temperature range of 10°C to 14°C, and the 17 bottle cooling compartment where temperatures are set between 4°C and 7°C. Isn’t that just wow? With 284 bottles ready, your guests are not...

I love holiday destinations that prove to be a home away from home only that this new home is beautiful enough to take your breathe away with every inch dipped in pure luxury. I’m talking about the Palazzo Sasso, a stunning five-star deluxe hotel on Italy's famous Amalfi coast. The hotel is a 12th century Italian villa tucked away in the hill top village of Ravello and perched high on the cliffs. So that’s a pinch of history, a...

Living life on land can be touted as uninteresting as you now have the same luxuries in the A380 aircrafts plus you are far above the ground up in the sky. Singapore Airlines, Dubai's Emirates Airlines and Australia's Qantas Airways Ltd. are using their new A380s to push the envelope on cushiness, entertainment and design. Talking of goodies, they are too good to be true but thank your luck or their engineers the too good time is here. When...

We have been writing about a lot of watches lately and especially of Jaeger-LeCoultre. Another spectacular Jaeger-LeCoultre watch being covered is Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Ultra Thin 40. As the name implies it is thin with a 40mm case available in 18kt rose gold or in stainless steel. The crystal is sapphire, as is the display back and this amazing watch is water resistant to 50 meters. Movement is the automatic in-house JLC caliber 896 with 34 jewels, beating at...

After the luxury luggage article that we posted earlier comes another luggage legend with the back-up of a very noble cause. City Magazines annual travel photo contest and photo exhibit, taking place this month, coincides with the release of a line of luggage created by Globe-Trotter with edgy streetwear purveyor maharishi. The takings will be going to the Conservation International charity. The one-off airport pieces in the collection will be auctioned off at the photo exhibit which consists of...
