Limited edition Eberhard & Co. Watch
Chronograph watches from Eberhard & Co. function just like a normal chronograph, with the additional subdial being used as a synchronized 24 hour hand for AM/PM indication purposes. The movement of course also has the time and the date. It is a special module done by Eberhard & Co. on top of a base Swiss ETA 2894 automatic chronograph movement. The layout makes this watch feel like a much more impressive "instrument" compared to most other sport watches.
The new model in the "Chrono 4" family is this Chrono 4 Geant Titanium Limited Edition. The case of the Geant (that means "giant" in French) is in titanium and 46mm wide.
Eberhard & Co. will make 1887 pieces in the Chrono 4 Geant Titanium collection.

US coin from 1852 on auction
The U.S. Mint began experimenting with different gold dollar patterns in 1852. The problem was simple, gold dollars were small and easily lost. And so the Mint tried out creating pattern gold dollars in 1852, producing the patterns now known as Judd-136 to Judd-148 which have a larger, more convenient diameter.
Instead a more practical solution eventually was decided on. The amount of silver was reduced in most subsidiary coinage in 1853, which returned the silver denominations to the channels of commerce rather than going to the melting pot. And the gold dollar diameter was eventually increased in 1854 when the design was changed to the Type Two format.
Heritage Auction's 2011 March Sacramento Signature ANA US Coin Auction features an 1852 annular (ring-shaped) gold dollar, with a wide center hole and the date, denomination, and country name along the outside. The lower half of the reverse shows a wreath. This pattern, known as Judd-145, is struck in gold with a plain edge. Heritage sold a similar coin to this one in 2008 for over $27,000.

The Imperia GP: Retro Hybrid Car
The Imperia GP was recently reintroduced at the Belgian Auto Show, revived as a hybrid—the marque which was once very much alive in the first part of the 20th century, is back with a bang.
Sporting a turbocharged 1.6L four-cylinder combustion engine, the Imperia GP is also conveniently outfitted with a 134-hp electric motor—which speeds from 0 to 100 km/h in a swift 6 seconds in electric mode—and in just 4 seconds while in hybrid mode.
Boasting a unique design with tons of retro flair, which brilliantly combines vintage sensibilities with an appealing modern aesthetic, the Imperia GP is resurrected in true 21st century style—carrying a 90,000-euro price tag, or approximately 120,000 euros for the first edition.
