Nothing could shout out ‘passion’ better than the seductive scarlet writing instruments designed by expert luxury pen manufacturer Conway Stewart. The magic of these fine pens goes much beyond just the looks though as they have been carefully designed to represent everything that the V-day stands for and means to anyone and everyone in love. These ‘Valentines Edition’ pens not just ooze in style but also make a perfect gift for your valentine, leaving them wanting for words. Designed to embrace the classic British sterling silver, the bright red and bright sterling silver finishes give it the charm and magic that convey love as elegantly as a scarlet rose.

Adding to the feel of the pen is the 18-carat solid gold nib along with finely engraved classics of Shakespeare’s sonnets of love on the body, making it indeed a must have for everyone who loves to collect special writing instruments. Designed by Conway Stewart, who happens to put pens in the hands of heads of states such as Queen Elizabeth II, expect nothing short of the very best from this limited edition.

With the series being limited to just 50 pieces, the price tag of $ 700 seems in fact a lot less than what it could be and for those who do manage to hold on to this will also be treated with an exclusive and elegant packaging of a black box with satin interior that houses the pen, a miniature book of Shakespeare’s sonnets and a bottle of red ink Conway Stewart… What better way to pen down your love for that very special angel!

Go for it, if you are that business magnate with panache and an eye for the very special Bentley Zagato GTZ. You may look for that something special, with that dash of passion, to own a car of this sort. Although nine of its kind of cars are expected to get made, to roll out for sale, only one of them is ready as yet. It has been listed on jameslist.com from a broker in Villorba, Italy.

GTZ was originally unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2009. It boasts of the engineering perfection of Bentley Continental GT and has the covering of a Zagato Treatment. The vehicle also has a twin-bubble roof that blends into a sculpted rear window.

Bentley Zagato GTZ’s mileage however is at an unimpressive 10 kilometres an hour, so go in for it, if you don’t mind a joy ride and are in the mood to relax. On its looks, there are hardly any words that would match description. It has the finest of finishes, and the best of shapes in the automobile industry, artistic to hilt.

When it comes to gadgets that will fail to impress the most idiotic brand crazy suckers on earth, the best thing to do is to claim the product is amazing (without making any claims why) and to make it a limited edition.

The moment a product is made in limited numbers, it becomes a collectible that automatically increases its net worth. It doesn’t matter how useless or unimpressive the product is, you can still find a limited number of suckers who would die for the product. The same goes for the Nooka Undrcrwn. Nooka and UNDRCRWN collaborate to give you this un-amazing watch that features a black ZenV display. The watch is made further undesirable with its childishly colourful striped polyurethane band. The watch shows both date and time and is water resistant for 5ATM.

Only 200 pieces of the model is available and watch will cost you $275. Take my advice and buy this watch. You’ll spend the rest of your life wondering why and this sufferance will take you to philosophical heights. Meanwhile, you can even tell how long you have been suffering!

Here is the limited edition Louis Moinet Chronovintage, which has a movement from the early 1970s. This one is an unusual watch and is also a special type of chronograph. The funny thing about the watch is that it measures 60 minutes but only the minutes. This means, you do not count the seconds, how strange. Why would anybody want to not count the seconds when every second is precious to everyone?

However, when you activate the chronograph, the hand moves gradually from one minute to the other. This will roughly tell you the idea of what part of the minute you are stopping in. The watch comes with a tonneau shaped case, which is 40mm wide and is made of steel. It has two available dial colors (white and black). The rich and complicated dial decoration complements the fantastic level of depth.

It has an addition of the 9 o’clock orientated subsidiary seconds dial, which enhances the vintage feel. The Chronovintage comes with a limited edition of just 60 pieces. It is available at select Louis Moinet timepiece dealers. Good that it comes in limited edition. I am not interested in this boring watch.

Maurice Lacroix, the luxury watch maker impresses us with new models every year with an occassional dose of the high end in one of watches. Same goes for the Masterpiece Tourbillon Retrograde timepiece that has been created to celebrate Maurice Lacriox’s 30th aniversary. Quite aptly, only 30 limited edition pieces have been made.

Please note that the Masterpiece label on a Maurice Lacroix watch means something extra special than the mainstream luxury. No wonder, the Retrograde timepiece comes in a 43.5 mm wide platinum case that is any watch collector’s dream. Manually-wound and hand-built, the watch comes with ML110 tourbillon movement features and has a 90 hours power reserve. All of the 232 watch components have been fabricated by hand.

But all that does not mean the watch is a complicated one. In fact, it’s strength lies in it simplicity. And if you are wondering what does Retrograde in the watch’s name imply. Well, it stands for the date dial on the upper left. The traditional artistice look is completed by the double arched tourbillon brudge and traditional pomme hands. The watch strap has been made from black crocodile leather. The price tag is $150,000.

Here is how you can flaunt your wealth and look smug with decadent nonchalance towards global recession (I’m sorry, I brought up the dreaded word again). All you need to do in order to drive away those blues is to get yourself a Knight XV to drive. The awesome looking SUV packs in Gorkha military vehicle’s design and comes handcrafted. A total of 1,500 hours for each of the limited edition (only 100!) vehicles, which are going to be out on sale.

The SUV comes with green technology and thus, the Bio-fuel V10 engine mustn’t be something to be surprised about. The Knight XV also comes with Wilton Wool carpeting, sunproof glass for privacy seekers, Andrew Muirhead leather, and 6-way seating. Wait a minute, I forgot the rest of the goodies, which include side-mounted laptop stations, Alpine DVD navigation, awesome TV set, cameras, night vision, LED cabin lighting, and many other such luxurious features for which a single blog post may not be enough.

All you need to do is, get your unholy hands on one of these evil vehicles’ steering wheels and drive away to the sin city. The pleasure of owning the Knight XV sets you back by $295,000.

Indeed the reason to celebrate has rightly come for those of you who love to get yourself drowned with whisky. This time around, Canadian Club launches their special limited edition 80 proof collector’s edition bottle. You might wonder why this is so special. Well, this limited edition isn’t any less special than the Classic and Reserve whisky which has virtually been the old time favorite whisky distilled by the Canadian Club.

The Canadian Club is celebrating its 150^th anniversary with this special edition bottle. Their first whisky apparently entered the American market as early as 1858 and they were initially known for their Club Whiskey which obliterated the fame of Jim Bean and Woodford Reserve. This 750-ml whisky bottle is perhaps the oldest Canadian club whisky available in the market as it bears a good age of 30.

What better way can you get to pay your tribute to the Canadian club to justify that you have been sipping their whiskies diligently over the years than by getting your bottle at $200. So go ahead and enjoy the this whisky that is bound to keep your drinking spree alive.
