On the move again. Deeper. TAG Heuer has put something new forward for those with the need for depth and the love of the visually mechanical.Many collectors are enamored by the timepieces of the deep, those that are not just dive watches but deep, deep dive watches. Watches that will keep on going long after your own mortal body will have been crushed if you happened to actually test the thing in the water. These watches are big, bulky and heavy in order to withstand the pressures you will see as you start reaching past where the light can go. Because of this need for strength and impregnability, they also almost always have metal backs. Usually engraved with the depth rating, or an image of an old metal diving helmet or such, they were a necessary tool for those that worked the deep. For the enthusiast though, it meant that you couldn’t see your movement.

IWC celebrated the launch of the new Da Vinci, and Leonardo himself, with a very special and exclusive play “The interrogation of Leo and Lisa”, produced by and starring Kevin Spacey. If Leonardo Da Vinci had been only one thing -- a painter, an architect, an engineer, an inventor -- he would have been the greatest painter, architect, engineer, or inventor in history. But the truth is, if he had been only one thing, he wouldn’t have been Da Vinci.What made Leonardo Da Vinci great was that quality of synthesis, of seeing the relations of all things, nothing separate from anything else. He was able to take knowledge and insight from all his fields of interest, and make them work together. And he was interested in everything. He saw all things as connected, and knew that all things used together to make a new, unprecedented whole. It was this quality that made him what we remember today: not an artist, or a builder, or a visionary, but all of them together.

ADVENTURE UNLIMITED'S ATV ExperienceTest Drive: The C! boys in action.Core of the Matter: The Suunto that we pounded during the trek.Together with Kookie Ramirez, AG Puyat and Kim Liu from sister publication C! Magazine, guys who were not hung over after several days of merrymaking, Calibre EIC Carl Cunanan and I buckled up in a Mitsubishi Strada 4x4 and left the metro at the crack of dawn. We were headed up North to rendezvous with the guys from Adventure Unlimited, who wanted to give us a taste of a different kind adrenalin boost than what we have been used to. Making our way through the NLEX was a breeze. The group was chatting away about the comfortable ride afforded by our ride and the smoothness of the Strada’s new turbo-diesel powerplant when we chanced upon a Ford F-150 hauling a custom-made trailer loaded with quad bikes and what looked like a sand rail.

Luxury trunk maker and luggage juggernaut, Louis Vuitton has been making fine luggage and suitcases since 1854. Because of the company’s long and proud history, tradition is a valuable word in the house of LV, but that has not stopped them from becoming extremely innovative, modern and creative.Always the trendsetter, Louis Vuitton has been careful to progressively expand with a range of luxury products that are consistent with the brand’s core values. In 1892, for example, the company needed to grow and expanded into the much faster paced handbag market. In 1997, the enigmatic designer Marc Jacobs joined the firm as Artistic Director and with that “acquisition” the company, already steeped in heritage and tradition, opened its doors and began offering a line of leather goods, ties, ready-to-wear lines for men and women, pens, men’s and women’s shoes, jewelry; and in 2002 made the move to haute horlogerie and began offering precious watches.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the Earth… And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light “day”, and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning – the first day. The founding magicians at Greubel Forsey have been creating horological wonders since the company’s humble beginnings in 1999, but it was at the unveiling of their signature piece in Baselworld 2004 where true magic was beheld. Despite coming from different backgrounds and nationalities, Englishman Stephen Forsey and Frenchman Robert Greubel shared one common passion: the tireless pursuit of peerless quality. As watchmakers they also shared another obsession, the Tourbillon; they both expressed the need to elevate the escapement to the Horological peaks they felt it should occupy.
