Breitling Avenger Seawolf Chrono

Breitling plunges towards new records by presenting the Avenger Seawolf Chrono, the world's only chronograph to be both watertight and operational at a depth of 3,300 feet.

Whereas most chronographs cannot be activated while diving so as to prevent water seeping in through the push-pieces, Breitling has achieved a major technical breakthrough by developing the magnetic push-piece principle, involving controls operated through the metal of the case and thus avoiding any direct contact between the push-piece and the movement. The sturdy steel case fitted with a decompression valve features alternating matt satin-brushed upper surfaces and polished sides – as does the rider-tab bezel.

The chronograph displays are both original and efficient, with an additional central sweep second hand for the minutes and a 1/10th of a second totalizer at 2 o'clock. Like all Breitling electronic watches, this champion of the depths is equipped with an exclusive SuperQuartz movement, ten times more accurate than a standard quartz movement.

The Worthy Alternate

The transport of choice for the rich and successful is either the BMW 7-Series or the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Its high time they take a good look at the Audi A8.

It is only human to take the path that is well trodden rather than less travelled, both literally and figuratively. When it comes to vehicles, the German luxury saloons, primarily the BMW 7-Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class, have long been the symbols of success. Many owners of both marques are traditional businessmen who have arrived in the business world. As such, it is not uncommon to see the upcoming and aspiring business leaders-to-be shuttling between meetings in none other than a BMW 7-Series or Mercedes-Benz S-Class executive saloons.

As Nature Intended By James Sharpe

Indochine in Wisma Atria has changed since I last reviewed Nude a couple of years back. Gone are the Sharks and rather risqué lavatories, replaced with Greek Gods and interestingly tiered seating. Evidently quite a lot of changed since then. The new Nude is much more of an intimate dining space than it used to be, though this is intimacy in terms of it being small, not warm and inviting. I don’t think you could ever attribute the words ‘warm’ and ‘inviting’ to an IndoChine establishment. Chic and sophisticated? Yes, Nude has evidence of these adjectives in abundance.

Omega Speedmaster 50th Anniversary

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Speedmaster - the first and still the only watch to have been worn on the Moon - a Limited Series of 5,957 stainless steel pieces with a special commemorative design of a golden seahorse on the dial will give collectors a rare opportunity to own a piece of space history. The physiognomy of the 42 mm Professional Chronograph Moonwatch with its black dial, chronograph counters and tachymeter scale bears the DNA of the original hand-winding 1957 Speedmaster and its heart is powered by the famous Calibre 1861 that accompanied the watch into zero gravity.

Good Vibrations

In addition to excellent play, skill and camaraderie, it seems like the European Ryder Cup team may have also had a secret weapon tucked away in their changing rooms at Ireland’s K Club last September, which could have had something to do with them trouncing the US Team (who didn’t have one at their disposal) by 18.5 to 9.5 points.
