They haven't even announced the price yet - but you know what - CAN'T AFFORD IT! Still bling though...]]>
MV Agusta watchLike most self-respecting motorcycle manufacturers, MV Agusta  has decided to launch a watch. Other manufacturers, including Ducati, Harley and BMW all have their own watches, usually produced by upmarket watchmakers.
MV Agusta’s watch is being produced by one of the most upscale manufacturers, Swiss (where else?) JEANRICHARD.

The “MV 75 World Champion” collection was specially developed in honor of MV Agusta’s 75 international competition victories. It is composed of three chronograph models in gold, steel and titanium. Limited editions of 75 in pink gold, 175 in titanium and 575 in steel will be produced.

The series number is engraved on the back of each watch, alongside the MV Agusta logo adorning the sapphire crystal that enables one to admire the exquisite finishing of the JEANRICHARD movement, decorated with the Côtes de Genève motif.

No prices published (but if you have to ask, you can’t afford it).

I'm still not sure if looking like Darth Vader while driving your Scuderia is a good thing or not...]]>

The Ferrari Schuberth helmet is a high quality product made using the most advanced technologies and top quality materials. This new concept model combines the practicality of Jet with the superior safety of an integral helmet that is highly innovative both in terms of form and performance. This model is, in fact, derived from the Schuberth J1, the helmet used by the Ferrari mechanics. It is made entirely from carbon-fibre which means that it weighs in at just one kg, making it very light and comfortable to wear.

Exclusively available from the FerrariStore.com, this helmet was specifically developed for drivers and owners of the Ferrari 430 Scuderia, the Prancing Horse GT considered closest to the Formula 1 car performance and technology-wise. The helmet’s styling is clearly influenced by the Ferrari 430 Scuderia’s livery which makes it particularly attractive. Just like the bonnet of the famous Maranello GT, the helmet also sports the Ferrari logo on its front.

The helmet comes in a red fabric carry bag with a black Prancing Horse logo.Price is approx $3200 US.
