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.

Scandinavia’s largest brewery has announced it will be selling the worlds most expensive beer. The Carlsberg Brewery in Denmark introduced Vintage No. 1 which will sell for 2,008 Danish kroner (almost $400) per bottle. The price is based on the year introduced (next years batch will cost 2009 Danish kroner), Carlsberg Brewery claims the beer is cheap considering how long it took them to develop the brew. The beer contains hints of prune, caramel, vanilla and oak tree from the French and Swedish wooden casks in which it is stored. They only produced 600 bottles of the 10.5 percent proof beer each only 0.8 pint.

The extraordinary designs of Henrik Fisker are no stranger to iWishihadthis.com. Luckily for us yet another awesome car from Fisker was shown at NAIAS. Available late 2009 the Fisker Karma ($80,000) is powered by Q-Drive which utilizes a 4-cylinder engine that powers a generator, resulting in a premium hybrid sports sedan that can run from zero to sixty in 5.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 125 mph.

The car has 2 driving modes. The first “Stealth Mode” is a pure electric mode which should allow the Karma to run off the lithium ion battery pack for 50 miles before the engine kicks in. The second, a sports mode, uses the four-banger at peak performance and, according to Fisker, makes the Karma sound like a combination of a jet fighter and an F1 car. Also the batteries compartments are located in the middle of the car, which lowers the center of gravity, giving it nearly perfect balance. Of course this sedan is goign to feature the latest in-car luxuries like navigation system and DVD player with headrest-mounted displays. My favorite part of the car is the self-contained climate control, it is a full-length solar roof to help charge the car and provide cooling for the interior cabin while the car is parked.
