If you’ve ever wondered what a really, really rich goth rocker would wear as a timepiece, may we present you with the Memento Mori, Carpe Diem! wristwatch. Translated as “remember you will die, so seize the day”, the existentialist watch was designed by Daniel Strom, son of watch maker Armin Strom. The heavily death-themed watch […]

Wow, of all the retarded things you can purchase in this world this quite possibly has to be among the retardedest. This 15 pound (7 kgs) solid 24 carat gold and platinum model of a Bugatti Veyron will cost you approximately double what the actual $1.5 million supercar will cost you. Double. I wince at […]

I know we all love bling and we trust our upper-class to make irrational decisions when it comes to frivolously spending their money, but this is ridiculous.

Besides, I was thinking of getting my […]

Needless to say I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing any of these Boucheron Bestiary Ronde Seconds Folle watches, but I’m not really the target demo. 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 […]
