STING: A Modified Tesla Cybertruck Ready For Tactical Operations

Luxury Cars

Images courtesy of Archimedes Defense From JustLuxe Content Partner MensGear When Tesla first unveiled the Cybertruck near the tail end of 2019, its unique profile generated a lot of hype. Sadly, production delays and reliability issues plaguing production units are not exactly helping with sales. Nevertheless, third-party customizations could potentially rekindle interest in the EV. One such venture — the STING — comes from Archimedes Defense. Even in its standard configuration, the donor all-electric pickup truck looks like it belongs on the battlefield. Perhaps the intimidating vibe comes from the geometric body and its wide stance. All it needs is…

Horological Machine NÂ9 âFlowâ

Jewelry & Watches

MB&FGeneva Watch Days is now a prominent event in the horological calendar. Originally the show was launched in 2020 by six Founding Members – Breitling, Bvlgari, De Bethune, Girard-Perregaux, H. Moser & Cie. and MB&F. However, the exhibition has now expanded to 52 different brands showcasing over a hundred exquisite timepieces. Here I noticed a very unusual offering from Konstantin Chaykin called ‘ThinKing’ which is now the world’s slimmest watch. Although still at the prototype stage, the timepiece has a depth of only 1.65mm and requires a special winding tool. I really admire the technical wizardry involved in accomplishing this…

Hotels

Columbia HillenEvery tile tells a story. Or at least that’s the situation at the 5-star Bela Vista Hotel & Spa in Portimão on Portugal’s Algarve coast. Century-old hand-painted tiles adorn the walls of this 38-room hotel, none more so than on the ornate wooden staircase leading up to the bedrooms. Here, a series of intricately designed tiles illustrate one of Portugal’s most respected books, The Lusiads, an epic poem written by Luis Vaz de Camoes about Portugal’s ‘golden age’ of discovery.

Timeless Classics

Jewelry & Watches

Images and text courtesy of Schiffer BooksApproximately 4 years ago in 2020, I began developing a concept for a special book about modern dress watches for Schiffer Publishing. This is the 7th book I have produced for them so they were receptive to hearing more about my idea. Generally, I prefer huge oversized industrial watches with diameters over 50mm. I feel these styles of timepieces make a very bold statement and present a larger canvas for Avant Garde watchmakers to work with. Theoretically, this works fine with casual attire but has serious drawbacks with formal wear. I discovered this first-hand…
