  • OUT OF THIS WORLD TECHNOLOGY TO APPEAR AT AMERICAN EXPRESS WORLD LUXURY EXPO IN RIYADH

    OUT OF THIS WORLD TECHNOLOGY TO APPEAR AT AMERICAN EXPRESS WORLD LUXURY EXPO IN RIYADH

    An “Out Of This World” elite supercar key will appear at the 4th American Express World Luxury Expo in Riyadh.

    Senturion (also official partner of the Lotus F1 Team) have created a Senturion supercar key which is in fact a high technology device or bracelet made from meteorite deposits.

    At its core the Senturion Meteorite contains a Widmanstätten etch pattern (these are fine, interweaving bands of metallic elements) lifted from iron meteorite deposits.

    And while there are 500 iterations of the bracelet being made, the etching on each bracelet is unique.

    The main purpose of this bracelet is that it is embedded with RFID technology that enables you to use this as a wireless entry system capable of syncing with the locks in your house, personal jewellery vault and of course your supercar.

    However it’s not just about the tech spec: every bracelet passes through seven stages of craftsmanship and machine production, and also comes in palladium.

    The Senturion bracelet will be on a fully functioning display with a Lamborghini showcasing the wireless entry systems and how this amazing interaction works.

    The device is the type of high-tech and cutting edge instrument that one would expect from James Bond 007 and can be synchronised with leading supercars and luxury vehicles.

  • MONTEGRAPPA’S ULTIMATE CENTENNIAL DRAGON

    MONTEGRAPPA’S ULTIMATE CENTENNIAL DRAGON

    Montegrappa, the brand famous for making the world’s most expensive pen (sold at an auction in Hong Kong for USD $8.5M), has something very special planned for the American Express World Luxury Expo in Riyadh.

    Montegrappa has been manufacturing exclusive writing instruments since 1912, in the same historic building in Bassano Del Grappa, North East Italy.
    Incidentally, in 1912 the last Chinese dynasty, Qing ceased to exist. The symbol of the Qing dynasty was the Dragon.

    In 2012 Montegrappa celebrated its 100 years since inception and to mark the date, the company produced the Centennial Dragon series, limited to 100 units only – 33 units in rose gold, 33 in yellow gold, 33 in white gold and one unique piece called the Ultimate Centennial Dragon.

    The design of Montegrappa’s Centennial Dragon, and in particular of the Ultimate Centennial Dragon draws inspiration from the Nine Dragon Wall of the Forbidden City in Beijing.

    This one-of-a-kind peice of art is made of 300gms of solid gold, studded with flawless diamonds, rubies and pearl and will only be available for private viewing in the American Express Salon Prive.

    The buyer of the Ultimate Centennial Dragon will be offered a VIP factory tour by a member of the Aquila family to view the manufacturing of the pen followed by lunch or dinner with members of the board including F1 racing driver, Jean Alesi (who is a Montegrappa’s shareholder).
    The price will include first class air fare.

    iPhone 7

    Apple just announced its newest smartphones—the Apple iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus—and, for the most part, they’re exactly what we were expecting. While very similar to the existing iPhone 6S and 6S Plus in terms of look and feel, there are some differences to be aware of.

    And though there’s plenty of hand-wringing about these changes, we thought we’d cut through all the noise and explain exactly how the iPhone 7 compares to the best phones on the market.

    The floating hotel that could be the future of cruising

    London architect Gianluca Santosuosso’s floating hotel concept, MORPHotel, could easily be mistaken as something from J.J. Abrams’ new “Star Wars”.
    The vessel, which spans about a half a mile in length, features capsules housing guest accommodations and amenities like theaters, gardens, restaurants, and a swimming pool.
    Additionally, a helipad and detachable boats are included to give guests the opportunity to explore the surrounding area.

    Is this the future of cruising?
    As far as energy is concerned, the MORPHotel integrates solar panels, floating vegetable gardens, and rainwater harvesting facilities to keep the property functioning at sea
