Mesa Boogie Lone Star


I had this amplifier a couple years ago but returned it because it was too big for my apartment in New York. I also couldnt justify spending $1,600 on an amplifier that I'd have to play at volumes that were acceptable for my neighbors. Anyways, despite all of this, it was an awesome sounding and increadibly versatile guitar amp and I long to have one again. Sorry for the shitty pic.
Price: $1,599

Audemars Piguet X Jay-Z


Forget all these little name collabo's out there between small-time street brands and small-time cultural icons. This is the real. HOV and AP, super limited, super money, super awesome.

50 Silver, 30 Rose Gold, 20 Platinum released.

Price: $23,500 (steel)
$43,900 (rose gold)
$69,500 (platinum)

The granddaddy of them all.....


For me, there is no better sports car than the 911 turbo. It's practical, amazing to look at, and it has some serious performance numbers that rival even the most exotic of exotics:
0-60: 3.7 sec
1/4 mile in 12 seconds at 120mph
Top speed of 193mph
and it stops just as fast as it goes.
Price: $122,900

Blackie (Custom Shop)


Fender Custom Shop recently released 185 replicas of Eric Clapton's famous Blackie Stratocaster, complete with replica cigaratte burns on the headstock!

Price: $24,000 (although I'm sure you're gonna have to pay a lot more to own one of these beauties)

Corum Bubble Privateer

I really like this watch. Made by an established watchmaker but you'd never be able to tell from the giant pirate grrrrrrr on the face. Like many Corum Bubbles with pictures on the face, this one is limited to 1955 pieces. I got to see one in real life at one of the many kick ass watch stores here in HK. The bubble really makes the watch stick out and the watch itself has a bit of weight to it....two qualities I appreciate.

Price: $3495

Gilded Age Denim



One of my favorites in my closet. 13.5 oz natural indigo dyed (one of the few American brands that use natural indigo). They feel heavy (even though theyre not (see previous posts)) and the color is awesome.

Price: $425

Visvim Hockney


So I want another pair of Visvims: their boat shoes, the Hockney.

Price: $300
