The centenary celebrations at Bentley continue after its recent release of the limited Continental GT Number 9 Edition at the Geneva Motor Show. In honor of its long-standing partnership, Breitling has just released a new limited edition Premier Bentley Centenary.
The new model features a brown elm burl dial mirroring the signature wood veneers Bentley uses in their luxury vehicles. The model is available in 18K red gold or stainless steel, and both come with a diamond-quilted brown leather strap, inspired by the leather seats of Bentley’s cars. Furthermore, the stainless steel version will also come with a bracelet produced in the same material.
Black contrasting sub-dials can be found at the 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock positions, while a white tachymeter scale sits on a black inner bezel surrounding the dial. The timepiece is powered by Breitling’s flagship Manufacture Caliber 01, its in-house mechanical movement allowing for a 70-hour power reserve. Moving onto the movement, its features can be seen through a transparent caseback with a Bentley logo. Although the 18K red gold edition is limited to 200 units, while the stainless steel edition is produced at 1000 units, both respective numbers are inscribed on the back of the watch as well for commemorative purposes.
G-Shock recently released its all-new Gravitymaster (GWRB1000-1A1), a timepiece designed with aviation professionals in mind. Focusing on ease and function, the Gravitymaster comes with a revamped structure and rust-resistant titanium parts. A four-button structure features titanium buttons large enough for easy access even when wearing gloves. With a new carbon monocoque case, this latest model is incredibly tough but light at the same time.
As a high-end model for G-Shock, this timepiece comes with an array of premium features, including a laminated carbon bezel, a carbon fiber insert band, and scratch resistant sapphire glass which enhances readability. The watch also utilizes tough solar technology, atomic timekeeping, and features full auto double LEDs which automatically illuminate in dark conditions.
Bluetooth enabled, the timepiece connects to your mobile device via the G-Shock Connected app, keeping accurate time with the ability to adjust for daylight saving time and changes in time zone — precisely 39 time zones across 27 cities.
The Gravitymaster will be available some time in April, and will sell at $800 USD.
After recently unveiling its camouflage edition of the Rolex Milgauss, MAD Paris has followed up with a new, darker option. For the latest timepiece, the customizer coats the Rolex in a “Deepsea” shade for a streamlined and timeless look.
The all-black watch is crafted in 100% stainless steel and features a brushed finish that casts a vintage feel. An adjustable strap and round face with unchanged Rolex crown branding make up the core elements. However, a gradient blue and black dial brings in a touch of color, while a blackened “Ring Lock System” circle provides a subtle alteration for the eagle-eyed wearer.
MAD Paris’ Rolex Deepsea watch retails for $48,279 USD. It is available for purchase now on Browns’ website.
Ben Baller has shared his latest custom jewelry piece to follow up his previous design for Elon Musk. The celebrity jeweler’s newest customer is Kid Cudi. Taking inspiration from Cudi’s days at BAPE, the melodic artist is reimagined as one of the streetwear house’s popular cartoon characters — artwork courtesy of Nigo — in a mix of black, white, cognac, canary and blue diamonds. The pendant is also drenched in pink sapphires and red rubies to complement its 18K rose gold base. Flipping over to the back of the pendant you’ll find “General Cud” engraved just above a graphic resembling the cover of Kid Cudi’s Satellite Flight: The Journey to Mother Moon album.
Known for putting its own spin on menswear staples, uniform experiment resurrects its statement-making carabiners after a brief hiatus. Partnering once again with Japanese jewelers IVXLCDM, the specialized rings are crafted with 18-karat gold and encrusted with a row of diamonds on the side, and feature the UE and thunder logos along the gate. The accessories include three key rings for added functionality, and also come in a silver version.
These carabiners are expected to release at the IVXLCDM store at Isetan Shinjuku on March 16.While there’s no official pricing information yet, the 18-karat carabiner retailed for ¥2,000,000 JPY (approximately $18,000 USD) when it was released back in 2017.
