Omega Speedmaster

Swiss are known for their premium watches and Omega is the perfect example. Clean and beautiful watches and not as snobby as a Rolex. My favorite is the Speedmaster, the famous watches, which was worn by the NASA when they were on the moon. Steel on steel, an automatic movement and waterproof. Around CHF 4'100. Omega.

Real McCoy’s BUCO J-22 Horsehide Leather Jacket

This biker style leather jacket by the Realy McCoy's is simply über-cool.

Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Air

Bowers & Wilkins updated their Zeppelin by adding the "Air", which means it now has w-lan and can communicate with iTunes and play song direct via AirPlay from your Mac or iPhone. Other than that it's still very nice to look at and the sound is said to be very good. Well it better be, because the Zeppelin Air is pretty expensive, costing around $599.95. Check out it's other features on B&W.

Nixon The Socket

Nixon released some new headphones called The Socket. They're made for doing sports with features like special memory wire which stays in position or the fact that they're sweat-resistant.

Hobbyzone Super Cub

Discovered this sweet little plane (actually it's not that small, the wingspread is 1.2m) lately and bought one. And yes, it's so much fun and ideal to start flying RC planes. Plus it's super stable and if you do break something, you can get every piece of the plane for little money. Comes in a RTF (Ready To Fly) package, which means you got everything to start right off. $179.99 at hobbyzone.

Contour HD vs GoPro HD

I've already posted about the GoPro HD a while ago here, but now there seems to be another very good camera on the market. Contour sponsored this year's Burton Global Open Series, which are some of the biggest snowboard contests, and a few of my friends tried one. Quality wise, I guess they're both equally good. The GoPro has a bit a wider angle but then again the Contour is somewhat smaller. They both released some very nice additional features for the cameras like a an lcd back for the GoPro or an App for mobile devices where you can see what you're filming. Check their pages, Contour and GoPro. Here's some pictures and clips.

IWC Portugese

Now this is most likely the most beautiful and elegant watch ever made. It has a mechanical movement and if you choose the automatic model a power reserve of up to seven days. There's a lot more to tell about the tech-gimmicks of this watch, all on IWC's page. Unfortunately this beauty has it's price, starting at about CHF 8000 all the way up to CHF 235'000.

Hendrick's Gin

If you're looking for some really good gin, Hendrick's should definitely do the job. Produced in Scotland, Hendrick's uses "uses a hint of Bulgarian Rose followed by a mash of cucumber", which makes it as tasty as it is. Best served with a slice of cucumber and just a little bit of pepper. And of course some tonic water, if you like to mix it. Hendrick's Gin, about CHF 50 per bottle.

I guess everyone likes tv series. There are loads of bad one's, a couple good one's and a really few that's worth watching it. And Entourage is definitely one of those.

Six season are out by now, the 7th will be airing this summer. So you got some time to make up.
