Ski Home Simulator from Proidee
January 5, 2009
A skiing simulator is personally what I was looking forward to this winter season. And, the Ski Home Simulator from Proidee is ideal for every ski lover, from amateur to professional. The ski simulator features 32 racetracks and slopes in the most famous ski resorts in the world. Professionals master slopes in career mode, beginners start in practice mode. The ski simulator vibrates, rotates, tilts – exactly like a real ski descent. It comes loaded with “Alpine Ski Racing 2007? software to train you without a computer professional ski and fitness trainer. A microchip transmits your movements on the screen simultaneously to help you track your performance. This German ski simulator sells for around $2285.

Pilot Your Own Sub with the Triton 1000
January 5, 2009
When the Poseidon Undersea Resort opens its doors in 2009, one of the activities guests can enjoy is piloting one of the four Triton 1000 submarines and exploring the spectacular marine environment in the 5,000-acre Fijian lagoon.
But why wait till next year when you can hop into one of these subs now? For US$1.69 million, U.S. Submarines have designed and built the Triton 1000 subs, which seats two or three, specifically with owners of mid-size to megayachts in mind. In fact, the first Triton 1000 has been delivered to the 164-foot yacht Mine Games in December 2007.
Standing at 1.85 meters, and measuring 3.2m by 2.65m, the Triton weighs a mere three tons. The sub’s catamaran configuration provides excellent surface stability and also meets the American Bureau of Shipping’s (ABS) freeboard requirement of 0.77m between the water surface and the hatch of the submersible.
This means that passengers and pilot can enter or exit the Triton 1000 safely and comfortably while it is surfaced. That said, the Triton can be easily deployed from the yacht with the existing davit systems.
Inside, the plush leather seats and full air conditioning makes for a deep sea adventure in luxury and comfort. The touch screen monitors and intuitive joystick controls make piloting this sub a breeze. For the benefit of new owners, however, U.S. Submarines will provide free lessons on piloting and submarine maintenance.

Daniel Roth Papillon Chronograph
January 5, 2009
The watchmaking workshops of Daniel Roth in Le Sentier are awe-inspiring for collectors, in particular, the brand’s prowess with adapting base calibers and for its know-how with minute repeaters. However, Daniel Roth is no slouch when it comes to the chronograph.
The brand launched its first chronograph – an automatic column wheel piece – in 1990 and today continues to refine its expertise in this ever-popular complication. The Papillon Chronograph – featuring the now-famous ellipsocurvex case – revisits the 1999 chronograph issued to celebrate the brand’s 10th anniversary.
To be precise, it references the 2005 Papillon Chronograph, minus the cover that hid the action of the pivoting minute hands. Significantly, the Girard-Perregaux movement of 2005 has been replaced with a Frederic Piguet caliber (reference 1185).
