Rodolphe Paninaro Diver Chrono Watch

Posted in: Watches

From Luxist comes a look at the latest Rodolphe Paninaro Diver Chrono Watch. “new diver styled watch will be released from watch maker Rodolphe. The timepiece is nice, but notice that I mention diver “style” watch. A true diver watch is water resistant to 300 meters, while you don’t really want to submerge anything in water that is tested less than 100 meters water resistant. However the Paninaro Diver Chrono watch is only 50 meters water resistant. So enough to watch your hands a bit more, but I’d rather Rodolphe have called it the ‘Paninaro Wading Chrono.’” The white band is a solid look on this model. Super.

45 AUDIO STATION

Posted in: Uncategorized

Designed for a club owner a while ago, the “45 Audio Station” by Chicago-based designer Christian Castro is a DJ table with an integrated vinyl case to rock the dance floor. The name “45″ has a dual meaning derived from the 45 record speed and the design’s resemblance to a handgun. The audio station is made of epoxy, concrete and steel, materials dictated by the design and a turntable’s operational requirement of no movement or vibration. The vertical element of the design is cast concrete connected to the horizontal element, which is made of molded foam. Both the vertical and horizontal elements are coated in glossy resin. The horizontal element is ridged and light, while the vertical element is heavy and immobile. The entire unit is bolted through the club floor.
