We all love concept models — be it cars, motorcycles, boats, furniture, albums, whatever — except the only frustration is knowing the beauty you’re looking at will probably never see the light of day production-wise. Well same goes for watches — sometimes their avant guard design ideas and mechanics push traditional wristwatch language into the […]

Will any of these be made? Maybe. Am I dying to have one? No doubt.

New Year's Inspiration for the Uninspired
It seems as though the holiday season always extrudes a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’ in most wardrobe collections. Whatever notion of the holiday spirit you’d want to blame it on, it’s surely a time for a sparkly something or another with charming accents to follow. Nonetheless, the certain fear of playing twins with a […]

From $300 to $1 million, black out your wrists this holiday with the ultimate in anti-bling
There seems to be an inordinate amount of black watches being released lately, some with a simple noir theme while others are completely blacked out, darker than Dick Cheney’s soul at an orphanage.

It’s Like If You Hired A Personal Shopper To Hit Up All The Rummage Sales
Note to all the fashionably unemployed out there with a discerning eye for weird little trinkets: forget the corporate world and become a professional rummage reseller. That’s basically what Sarah did here—she quit her day job and turned her home in London (around the corner from Portobello Market) into a boutique where she sells a […]
The notion of “completing each other” via dating is pretty fucking stupid (and nauseating), if you ask me. Why would someone even be interested in a half a person in the first place? Maybe that’s me just being a guy and all… cuz girls drop that “you make me whole” nonsense all the time. So […]

Why should something look exactly as we expect it to?
If New York based Areaware isn’t on your radar, and you’ve got a fondness for unique products, file them in your Rolodex now. They’ve got a knack for bringing design and functionality together in a way that most companies fail to do. Make the jump to see a few things that caught my eye.
