De Grisogono Meccanico DG
June 2, 2008
Visually the De Grisogono Meccanico DG has 2 time-zones, one analog and the other digital. The amazing thing is that this watch is not digital, it is a series of 651 mechanical components. The numbers are formed by 23 cams that are connected to gears and a synchronization system. This could be the most complicated watch in the world, and was created for the 50th birthday of De Grisogono. The Meccanico DG is available in four styles (red gold, titanium-and-gold, titanium-and-platinum and titanium-and-rubber). Unfortunately only 177 will be made, no word on price. See more photos.

It will give you about three hours of talk time and around 160 hours of standby.

d3o Body Armor
March 27, 2008
d3o is the latest in action sports protective body armor. Their unique material is specially engineered with intelligent molecules. They flow with you as you move but on shock they lock together to absorb impact energy. The material is used by several different companies in tons of different products. I am keeping an eye out for Gore-Tex Pro Shell Leather (the first leather moto jacket using d3o). Another brand using d3o for motorcyclists is Racer gloves. Most products with d3o are for sports (soccer, ski, etc) but more and more motorcycle companies are adopting the material. See more pictures and videos.
