Rolex Day-date 36mm

















Which is your favorite Rolex color? Maybe one of each...



Camouflage Impact

 
 


























While it’s hard to point out the exact moment when the army influence began affecting street-wear trends, it might just be safer to assume that the ongoing affair between military and fashion spans its long-lasting existence over many decades. Never really gone for good, the military aesthetic is constantly determining the shapes of the current trends, evolving in order to translate to modern but standing its ground. Knowing that fashion is inspired by and reflects the general tendencies in the world, the message that comes out is pretty sad. Unfortunately we are all aware of the unrest situation spread all over the world, especially in the middle east and Africa as well as Ukraine. Even though the fashion world is conscious about emphasizing and attracting attention to war in the world, it seems to have lost its purpose as a statement and has been over done and exploited. If you just take a look for a moment at some of the samples that the camo print has been applied, you will understand my point. I only ask you to keep is simple and classy...

Triumph Scrambler


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The café racer is a light and lightly powered motorcycle that has been modified for speed and handling rather than comfort. The bodywork and control layout of a café racer typically mimicked the style of a contemporary Grand Prix roadracer, featuring an elongated fuel tank, often with dents to allow the rider's knees to grip the tank, low slung racing handlebars, and a single-person, elongated, humped seat.

Blinged Monopoly































Monopoly is an American-originated board game originally published by Parker Brothers. Subtitled "The Fast-Dealing Property Trading Game", the game is named after the economic concept of monopoly—the domination of a market by a single entity. An 18-karat gold version of the famous Parker Brothers board game will be on display beginning Friday at the Museum of American Finance. The gold and jewel-encrusted Monopoly is estimated to be worth roughly $2 million.The set of dice alone is valued at $10,000, with 42 full-cut diamonds for the number dots. All of the properties that make up the game board are also set in gems, with some 165 gemstones in total. The “Chance” and “Community Chest” cards are photo-etched.

Customized bobber style Harley Davidson
















A bobber is a custom motorcycle that usually has had the front fender removed, the rear fender "bobbed" (made smaller), and all superfluous parts removed to reduce weight. Bobbers are related to choppers in that they represent a minimalistic approach where the motorcycle is stripped of parts or accessories not needed but bobbers generally retain the characteristics of the stock frame.

Customized original bobber style


This style of custom motorcycle, which took shape in the 1940s and 50s, is generally thought to have been started by returning WWII American servicemen working on ex-military motorcycles, and inspired by lighter European motorcycles they had seen and ridden.When bobbers were first created, the intent was not to create a new type of motorcycle or sub-genre, the idea was to keep motorcycles on the road for as cheaply as possible.

Custom Made Harley Davidson Cafe Racer
























The café racer bikes reflected their owners and were often homemade. Today there are many companies that create such vehicles. The style has also influenced motorcycle manufacturers, such as Harley-Davidson.

Custom Cafe Racer

 
The term café racer developed among British motorcycle enthusiasts of the early 1960s, specifically the Rocker (or ton-up boy) subculture. The term describes a style of motorcycle for quick rides from one coffee bar to another. Cafe Racers were also common in Italy, France and other European countries. In 1973, Popular Mechanics said the term café racer was originally coined as an insult toward riders pretending to be road racers but instead only parked outside cafés.

Vintage Ghost Rider Must Have!

The Retro Vespa 946

The new Vespa 946 is aptly named after 1946, the year the Italian company was founded and made their very first scooter. Only a certain number of the 946 models will be made for each country, with yearly releases of the new model coming in premium colors and fresh customizations. While the 946 pays homage to Vespa’s history, it definitely feels modern and tad bit futuristic. For the first time ever, Vespa has used aluminum in one of their designs. As a plus, from the stitching on the leather handle grips to the final polish, every premium component is assembled by hand.
