Hublot has created a limited edition Ferrari watch that costs more than most of the actual cars. For the bargain price of $318,000, brand fans can wrap the MP-05 LaFerrari watch around their wrists. Compared to the million-dollar-plus LaFerrari supercar, the Hublot Ferrari watch seems like a bargain. The watch that costs more than a […]
For those who may have missed it, the Ralph Lauren men’s watch collection includes a very special edition, one inspired by his 1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Gangloff drop head coupe.

Supercars often inspire elegant timepieces, so it is no surprise that there is a new Bugatti watch bending time! Swiss luxury watchmaker Parmigiani Fleurier fashioned the Bugatti driving watch below, mirroring the new Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse hyper machine. Wear the Bugatti Veyron Vitesse…like a boss. The Grand Sport Vitesse made its jaw-dropping debut at Pebble […]
Ferrari may have Hublot, but Maserati has paired with Bulgari jewelers to craft an elegant timepiece— Bulgari Octo Maserati. It is nothing new for an exotic carmaker to team up with a high-end jeweler, so it comes as little surprise to see that Maserati paired with Bulgari to fashion the enviable watch. What is rather surprising, however, is the lack of the Maserati logo plastered to the dial! It is located discreetly on the transparent caseback.
I suppose when you are as noted and known as Maserati–there is little need to advertise on a watch! But those in the know—well..they know!
Hublot’s newest luxury timepiece is also its most expensive, laden with a staggering 1,282 diamonds and a $5 million-dollar price tag! Only a very select and exclusive audience will be permitted to view this watch, as it will be watched with airtight security in Basel, Switzerland during the world’s largest watch event– Baselworld.
For $5 million one could buy several Bugatti Veyrons! Unreal!
Would you prefer a new handbag or a brand-spanking-new Ferrari, if given the option? If you chose the Ferrari, you may be shocked to learn that for the price of 5 or 6 new Ferrari 458 Italia cars, you can get one $1.9 million-dollar Hermes handbag. Gulp.
The million-plus Hermes handbag
Hermes creates some of the most luxurious and coveted items on earth, but the 4 new designs unleashed are expensive, even for them! The miniature totes are crafted from gold and then bedazzled with thousands of precious stones…think of it as the ultimate unnecessary accessory.
These million-dollar mini-bags are designed to be essentially a piece of flair—worn around the wrist as a sort-of bracelet. Designer Pierre Hardy spent two years perfecting these designer bags, the Kelly and the Birkin, and each will only be produced 3 times.
The hot Ferrari 458 Italia bleeds less money than the Hermes handbag
Who will the buyers be? According to Hermes CEO Patrick Thomas, “I have no idea. But maybe they will have two bodyguards!”

As you can see from the photos, Prada has a thing for much more than just shoes! The 2012 line of Prada heels were inspired by classic cars of the roaring fifties–creating perhaps the most unique line of shoes to ever make their mark on fashion. Cars may have changed American culture, but a good shoe challenges couture worldwide! They would certainly pair well with a luxury rental car for an unforgettable night out anywhere!
Women go gaga for Prada shoes, but are these a bit more Lady Gaga? Comment below!

Luxury cars like the Lamborghini can be used for any purpose on earth, even charity! This was displayed on Halloween at around 11 a.m. when a man dressed as Batman created quite the scene when his Batmobile (A Lamborghini) became disabled! It is unclear which prompted more attention, the getup or the sports car.
Hey, it beat Justin Bieber’s Batmobile attempt…which was interesting (and I mean interesting in the insulting British way).
