Now I’m the last person to judge anyone for their vices, lord knows that. But when Cast of Vices declare their collection of jewelry “casts a critical eye on pop culture and our obsession with self-medication and addiction,” I kinda have to call bullshit on that. I mean, who’s gonna wear a silver Miller High […]

Lord knows we love our blacked out watches, so Tsovet‘s latest in its SVT-NM85 line hits us in a special place. Available as of yesterday (February 1st), the Swiss movement-enhanced NM85 is a 50mm diving watch influenced by the Imperial Navy’s Baltic Fleet divers. The limited edition timepiece will only set you back about $500.

Whoever first uttered the phrase, “It’s the thought that counts,” didn’t live in a postmodern, consumerist country. Give me an uncut diamond and I’m polishing it up until my right arm is disproportionately bigger than the left (like it’s not already, psh!). But it’s all masturbation anyway, right?

Still, I gotta say I like the playfulness and bright colors, and the googley-eyes for second hands are a creative touch. The 18k gray gold cases are 42mm wide, inlaid […]

A new piece from Swiss watchmaker Confrerie Horlogere, this La Clef du Temps Tourbillon has two noteworthy features. First the La Clef du Temps orients the tourbillon horizontally, so the wearer can watch its movement through the side window (see the tiny side window above). The second feature has to do with the crowns: the […]

It’s a brand spanking new year, and there’s so much to look forward to and even more to leave behind. 2009 wasn’t kind to anyone, so I’m sure we’re all psyched just to leave that year in the past and welcome in the pure potential of what 2010 has to offer. In that mindset we […]
