Mandy Brencys created this awesome series of Star Wars themed Evian water bottles, each featuring a different character from the series:
“Star Wars by Evian, is an innovative intergalactic take on design packaging. Shaped to be wielded like a lightsaber, and striking enough to distinguish which side you have chosen — Jedi or Sith, these glass water bottles will take you to a galaxy far far away.”
Sadly, this appears to be a student project, so you shouldn’t expect to see them in stores anytime soon – if ever.

Rolls Royce have created only one hundred Phantoms to celebrate the Spirit of Ecstasy each featuring the mascot cast in silver and a new Rolls Royce badge which is black in color with silver lettering as opposed to silver with black lettering.
The Centenary Phantom also features a clock commemorating the occasion as well as special coach lines on the side.

Hublot introduces its year end model, called the King Power Unico GMT watch, which has plethora of time zones on its dial.
Like most from Hublot, this watch also comes with the usual round dial ring, with smoothened but well defined edges of the overall chassis. Same is the case with the Hublot logo engraved side crown.
Available in black ceramic and 18-carat King yellow gold options, the central unit features the carved multi-layered main dial, which has 6 time-zones on the upper ring, 4 on the inner ring, and the layers beneath that.
While 2 geometrically carved hands try to display the hour and minutes, which can be guessed only through their positioning, a ‘+’ shape carving in between point out 4 of the time zones in 24-hour format, displayed on the 4 corresponding micro-dials alongside, which have red Arabic numerals, on steel finishing surfaces.
On the inside, there is the HUB 1220 automatic GMT tourbillon movement, which has 72 hours of power reserve after every recharge. We are yet to know the detailed anatomy of the movement components, but we are sure about it being rather complicated to support the 24 different time zone functions.

Converse shoes has just flipped the switch with the ‘Converse: Made By‘ app. Now you, the customer, can design your own pair of shoes and sell them over Facebook. Unlike previous customizeable clothing apps such as Nike’s, this campaign not only gives you full control, but also allows you to let other people buy your design.
So what does this mean? That means that you can design a shoe as off-the-wall as you wish, post it on Facebook and then enable someone halfway across the world to buy it. This app is not yet live, but with Converse being home for over 40,000 fans on Facebook, this seems like a successful endeavor already. There are rumblings that ‘Converse: Made By‘ may even lead to users being able to open up their own online storefront to showcase their work.
