Cartier Cadran Lové Tourbillon watch


Cartier Cadran Lové Tourbillon watch, a piece that will be officially unveiled in January 2012 at SIHH in Geneva, Switzerland.
This piece builds off of previous innovations and design motifs to result in this interesting looking timepiece.
The Caliber 9458 powering the Cadran Lové Tourbillon is a variant of an already existing tourbillon (the ladies “Alligator Tourbillon”) but the watch itself is decidedly masculine, i.e. with sculpted Roman numerals rather than a pave diamond crocodile.
The tourbillon is actually a “flying tourbillon”, a complicated execution of the tourbillon in which the tourbillon carriage seems to “fly” on bridges.
Cartier connoisseurs will recognize the Roman Numeral design from to that used on the Santos skeleton watches in prior years.


The Blacktop 360 Grill-Fryer



The Blacktop 360 Grill-Fryer ($250) combines a deep fryer, grill, griddle, and warming plate into a single circular gas-powered wonder, letting you grill burgers, cook hot dogs, fry onion rings and get your buns warmed up all without moving an inch.

Porsche Panamera GTS



The polarizing Panamera gets the GTS treatment with a car that combines the practicality of a sedan with the racing characteristics of a Carrera. The all wheel drive GTS will be powered by a modified 4.8 liter V8 that puts out 430 horsepower and will hit 62 mph from a standstill in 4.5 seconds on the way to a top speed of 178 mph.
