Posted on by Imagine Lifestyles

We’ve all been there; you want to gift a special man in your life something he’ll appreciate, but you don’t know what gift to pick.

Let’s look at the ten best luxury gifts you can get a modern man.

 

1.   Watches

How To Pick The Perfect Watch

Posted on by Imagine Lifestyles

What’s In A Watch?

Here’s the thing about a good watch: it’s a lot more than just some timepiece for your wrist. Certainly, this is a primary function of a watch; but there’s so much more to it than that—especially given the options available today. Watches require careful manufacture, and when you get one that’s well-made, it can actually increase in value over time.

You’ve got to ask yourself: why are you buying a watch? Do you merely want a convenient timepiece always just a glance away? Are you looking to acquire some wearable wealth as an “eject button” financially, for when the unexpected happens? Are you looking for a status symbol? Are you trying to stay “hip” with modern technology accessorizing? read more

Gift Ideas for Car Lovers that Can Fit Any Budget

Posted on by Imagine Lifestyles

The good thing about holiday shopping for someone who loves cars is the bounty of options ranging from stocking stuffer-level cheap to holy moly-level extravagant. The tough part is that car lovers are often very specific about what they like and you may not know a lot about cars. If you need some help buying the perfect gift for the automobile enthusiast in your life, consider these ideas.

First, consider their main relationship to cars

Being a car lover can mean a lot of things. When you’re deciding what to give the car lover in your life, you’ll want to first consider what they specifically love about cars. This will help guide you toward the right gift. They could be an amateur mechanic or at least a tinkerer. They could like racing (either in real life or virtual). They could simply love keeping their car in tip-top shape. They could be into toys and models. Find their sub-passion, and you’ll unlock the key to a perfect gift. read more

Now Accepting Bitcoin?

Over the past few months Bitcoin has had an explosion in both value and awareness. From humble beginnings this crypto-currency is now valued at around $17k per coin. Imagine Lifestyles now accepting Bitcoin for all luxury & exotic car rentals, chauffeur services, and driving experiences. This form of payment allows you to have complete protection of your personal and financial information while sending payment quickly and easily online.

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is a form of digital currency, created and held electronically. No one controls it. Bitcoins aren’t printed, like dollars or euros – they’re produced by people, and increasingly businesses, running computers all around the world, using software that solves mathematical problems. Many companies are now accepting Bitcoin, and Imagine Lifestyles is proud to be on the forefront of this new all-digital currency. Your bitcoin wallet is not connected to your personal financial information, which means that you can easily send online payments without fear of your financial information becoming compromised. read more

Hey, you can always just watch the ball drop from the ipad screen while parked high on a hilltop overlooking the glittering city.

Luxury List: Top 5 Most Expensive Holiday Gifts for 2015

Tis the season once again, and with it comes the annual analysis of the most expensive holiday gifts available! With much-loved publications like Harper’s Bazaar and the Neiman Marcus Christmas Book to thumb/click through, there is no shortage of staggering price tags and baubles to check out this year. Let’s take a look at some of the expensive fare we have seen thus far:

  • A $3.2 million smackaroo couture dog collar by Amour Amour tipping the scale at a whopping 52 carats and laden with 1,600 individual sparklers.
  • A pair of $230,000 solid gold ladies high heels, for the well-heeled types. Created by Christopher Michael Shellis, this pair features 2,200 diamonds but costs less than the dog collar.
  • The $345,000 robot servant will be more adept to your adult needs but will cost far more than the child’s play versions. The minds at Hammacher Schlemmer claim the robot is controlled via a wireless remote while the operator enjoys the stationary life. Sadly, this is true.
  • Experiences seem to be the popular route for the Neiman Marcus book this year, with some of the following offerings standing out: A $90,000 ride into the atmosphere in a pressurized space balloon from World Views, a $150,000 tour of Florence and Venice with Italian jewelry designer Ippolita Rostagno (for 4 guests over 7 days), and an $80,000 lunch and personal styling with legend Iris Apfel of the fashion industry (this one comes with a trunk brimming with accessories).
  • The disappointment this year was the car selection for the Neiman Marcus book…a special-edition 50th anniversary Mustang convertible for $95,000. Yawn.

If the price tags for these holiday gift ideas seem a touch decadent, you can always opt for a $300-$500 card from the Gilded Age instead…no, that is not a gift card—it is just a greeting card with some gold and bling that the recipient cannot even wear. Share your favorite extreme gift item for this year! read more

Trending: Shining Some Light on the Diamond Massage

Diamond massage

There are endless ways to make money disappear, but is the diamond massage a thing? Seriously? It seems that there are individuals out there willing to part with anywhere from $300-$100k to be surrounded by diamonds and at times rubbed with them. To these innovative people I ask: Have you ever considered just milling about Cartier or perhaps a hot stone massage?

For a price, you can shower yourself with diamonds. The precious stones can only become a permanent memory, as they are kept by the spas.  read more

The Bulgari Octo Maserati watch celebrates Maserati’s 100th and Bulgari’s 130th anniversaries, respectively. What better way to mark an occasion than with a luxurious timepiece?  read more
