RETIREMENT IS NOT THE END OF THE ROAD FOR MIAMI HEAT VET UDONIS HASLEM.
PHASE 2 OF HIS INCREDIBLE, MAGICAL JOURNEY IS JUST BEGINNING.
BY LAURA SCHREFFLER SCHWARTZever. Get. Too. Comfortable.
This is the advice NBA veteran Udonis Haslem gives me when I sit down with him a few weeks after one of the most exciting and unexpected championship fnals in the National Basketball Association’s history, an epic showdown between eventual winners the Denver Nuggets and Haslem’s team, the Miami Heat.
Or, should I say “former team.” Haslem, now 43, made headlines when he ofcially announced his retirement prior to the 2022-2023 season. His name, you see, has become synonymous with the Heat, the team with which he’s played for the entirety of his 20-year career (fun fact: he is one of only three players in history to play for the same team for at least 20 years, including former Dallas Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki and the late, great Los Angeles Laker Kobe Bryant). Hanging up his red, black, and yellow No. 40 jersey was an incredibly big deal — not just to the team, but to the city where he was born and raised, too.
Despite having the kind of career that legends (and biopics) are made of — starting as an undrafted rookie in 2003 and leaving in 2023 as the longest-tenured player and all-time leading rebounder in the team’s history, with three championship wins under his belt — his road to retirement hasn’t always been covered in gold. If anything, it was the opposite: a long, winding, and pothole-paved journey riddled with insecurities and injuries, but also one that ultimately drove him to become the best version of himself.
“I think the reason I am the way that I am is because, no matter what, I never thought I would be in the NBA for a long time,” Haslem confdes over Zoom in late June, just two weeks after his historic fnal game. “I was never the guy that had it made. I was never the guy that got comfy. I was always the guy who had a chip on his shoulder, yet who found a way to be motivated by something. I never lost the mindset of the undrafted guy.”
I ask, “Not even in your 20s? Not even at the height of your career?”
Haslem looks at me somberly and admits, “Not even right now.”
Having that ever-present underdog mindset could have been debilitating, but in Haslem’s opinion, it provided a necessary fre to continuously push and improve. “It’s a gift and a curse, but I do think that without that part of me, this underdog never had a chance,” he confesses, noting, “I always thought of myself as the guy who had to work twice as hard or 10 times as hard, if need be, just to get a seat at the table. And I don’t want to just have a seat at the table, you know what I mean? I want to run that table. So, I’ve never been a guy that got comfortable. If I achieved a goal, I’d be like, OK, now what’s next, because I didn’t think I could do this. But guess what? I did it. So now, damn, what else can I do that I didn’t think I could do if I just try? If I push myself and just believe, what else can I possibly achieve?”
I’m getting Dr. Seuss vibes from “UD” until he continues, “I couldn’t have dreamed it any better — which is why I think I didn’t dream. I think that’s
why I got up every day, hit the pavement, and acted like I was undrafted. I acted like I didn’t have anything, and it brought me to this point.”
He takes me on a trip down memory lane, to both the best and the worst of times, including his career-defning moment in 2006 against the Dallas Mavericks, the frst of his three NBA championship wins. “I went into that fnal undrafted — a kid from Miami that nobody was really giving a chance, on the biggest stage in basketball, at a time where literally anyone who loved basketball was watching — and I held my own. I did more than hold my own,” he reminisces. “I helped win the frst championship in Miami Heat history. To perform the way I did and then also win, well, to me, that was the biggest moment that defned Udonis Haslem as a Miami Heat player.”
But as he’s driven home pretty well at this point, his journey wasn’t always the stuf of dreams. There were bad times, too, and lots of them. The most terrible was in 2008, when the Heat drafted Michael Beasley as a power forward, the position UD also played. “My role was obviously going to change when Beasley joined the team. I went from being a starter to a guy riding the bench, but that’s the way the business goes,” he recalls, sharing that, at the same time, his beloved mother had become incredibly ill, and as a result, his head was all over the place. Yet, because he excelled and exceeded his own expectations, he now only feels pride for that tough time. “With that said, I didn’t pout, I didn’t whine. And, as it turned out, that was one of my best years in a long time playing basketball. I’m a guy that, if you put me in a situation and give me enough time, I’ll fgure out how to win no matter what,” he maintains.
And regardless of whether he’s won or lost through the years (because in as much as he says he always wins, I know what he really means is that he always comes out on top and respects himself in the process), he can certainly sleep easily at night knowing that he gave his all, that he fully and truly embodied “Heat culture.”
Udonis is Heat culture, and, as Heat president Pat Riley says, “Udonis is Miami,” too. But what is Heat culture, and what does it mean to UD? “Heat culture is something that you believe in that is bigger than yourself, bigger than what you are as an individual. Heat culture gives you something to believe in. Heat culture gives you a standard. That standard is not for everybody — it’s not attainable for everybody. It’s accountability on a very high level, a sacrifce for the greater good, a standard that is set that gives you something that is way beyond what you can ever achieve on your own.”
That, right there, is what has made UD the unofcial gatekeeper of Heat culture, the ultimate hype man, and a stellar teammate. It’s a role he takes extremely seriously, but as someone with such longevity who has come from and fully embodies the Magic City, it isn’t unexpected. He knows that he couldn’t have gotten to where he is without his teammates,
and the same goes for them. It’s why, as the years passed and retirement came closer and closer, he comfortably wore the cloak of mentor and motivator for his team.
That he has been able to evolve in this way has no doubt set him up for success with the younger generation of athletes. “You know, I’ve seen [two decades] of players come through here. Not only has the talent level changed, but the basketball IQ has changed, the personalities have changed, the interests have changed. The world has changed,” he says. “I’ve had to be able to not only ft in but lead both of those generations. As much as I give these guys something from me to learn, I received a lot from them to learn, too. It helps me with the next generation to relate and understand.
“I think that’s one thing that I do diferently now than when I came in,” he continues. “When I frst came into the league, the veterans didn’t care to understand; you just had to understand them and do things their way. You can’t do that now. You have to understand these kids; you have to understand how to motivate them, what they like, and what they don’t like, but that can only happen after you gain their trust.”
UD seems to have developed true, strong relationships with the younger generation, citing names such as Bam Adebayo, Hassan Whiteside, Caleb Martin, and Wayne Ellington as those that he’s impacted, and vice versa. “I’ve watched [these younger] guys getting nice contracts and I see them ourishing. I’m not impressed by them, because I knew they had it in them, just like my father believed in me. He infused in me from an early age the belief that I could win, that under no circumstances should I take a back seat to anybody. And that’s what I’ve infused in them. When these guys walk into a locker room as undrafted or overlooked, I tell them that they are never to think they’re less than. I don’t care what the draft says, I don’t care what the media says — you’re just as good, or better. And when they win, when they believe in themselves, that’s the success that I needed to keep me going,” he says.
They returned the favor, obviously, particularly this year. When I ask what they’ve done for him, in particular, what kind of epic rager of a farewell gathering they threw in his honor, he responds simply, “They took me to the fnals.” nd of discussion.
He adds, “I love each and every one of these guys. They left their hearts and souls on the court every night, and that’s all I could ever ask for.”
Well, that, and they brought him wins. Lest you forget, UD is still a competitor at the end of the day. He says as much now, sharing, “Now, at this point in my career, now that I’m retired, I appreciate that culture even more. When you’re in it, you keep your head down and pray you win a championship; you’re living at that point every day. You know you feel great when you win, but you lose and you’re freaking miserable. You go home, sit in the dark, watch the screen saver on your Apple T profle for an hour or so. I’m now to the point where I’m just appreciative and have nothing but gratitude. I’m thankful that people ever look at me that way. Because when I was playing, I was such a ferce competitor that most people probably didn’t like me outside of this organization, and I can understand why. But now that I’m taking this role that’s more of an OG, a mentor, I’m a much more respected person I’m more liked.” He says with a laugh, “And it’s OK to be liked sometimes.”
If that isn’t an epiphany, I’m not sure what is.
“IF I PUSH MYSELF AND JUST BELIEVE, WHAT ELSE CAN I POSSIBLY ACHIEVE?”
ALL CLOTHING: Louis Vuitton
WATCH: Rolex
BRACELET: Van Cleef & Arpels
CHAIN: Udonis’ own
hen I meet Udonis Haslem, he’s sitting in his Miami man cave (which he calls a “club room”), drinking water from a plastic cup, surrounded by the jerseys of other famous athletes like Dan Marino, Michael Jordan, Mike Miller, and James Posey, as well as his Heat dudes, Bam Adebayo and Dwyane Wade. He’s relaxed and low-key, black cap pulled low, wearing a bright green T-shirt, a thick gold chain emblazoned with “UD 40” (a present from fan and jeweler Daniel Gottfried), and a Rolex “Panda” that is as brilliant as his smile. Life, right now, is clearly good... outside of the obvious elephant in the room. Where in the heck is his jersey on this wall of fame?
He points to an ambiguous spot somewhere over his shoulder. “I’ve got my jersey up there from my last NBA Finals, over in the corner next to Michael Jordan and Dan Marino. My high school jersey is up there, too. But yeah, I’ve got most of them up here, my boys, the guys I played with who I consider to be friends. It’s inspirational, and where I spend most of my time. My family is here — my boys [Kedonis, 24, Elijah, 16, and Josiah, 12] and my wife of 10 years, Faith — but I’m able to come up here and brainstorm, nap, wake up, and brainstorm some more.”
Despite coming of of a 20-year tenure with the Heat and a rigorous playof schedule, UD is still in go mode. “I have not even taken a vacation yet,” he admits. “Me and my wife were literally just sitting here talking about a vacation 30 minutes ago, but it hasn’t happened yet. Straight from the playofs, it was all about business. I went to visit my afordable housing project, went to go check on my medical marijuana project down south, and straight from that, to the kids’ basketball tournament in Fort Lauderdale and a baseball tournament in Winter Haven. Now, I’m back home for a week [before I head to] NBA Summer League. Then, the wife and I are going to fgure out some time to ourselves.”
I applaud his resilience, because the man seriously deserves a break. But I get why he hasn’t had one: with so much changing, there is a comfort in consistency — plus, UD has been working this hard his entire life. After graduating from Miami Senior High School, he went to the University of Florida, where he was the starting center for four NCAA tournament teams. Post-graduation, he spent the 2002-2003 season in Chalon-surSaône, France, before signing with the Heat as a free agent in August of 2003. In recent years, as bidding farewell to basketball became a reality, his focus started to shift to outside endeavors, like humanitarian eforts such as his Power Forward Through Hunger initiative in partnership with the Udonis Haslem Children’s Foundation, and business ventures, including fve Subway franchises, two Starbucks locations, and an instein Bros. Bagels (where he partners with CareerSource Florida and the Employ Miami-Dade project to hire and train local job seekers and young adults from low-income families to work at his stores). He is also a partner in The Flowery, a Florida-based medical cannabis company, and has big plans for the Miami Center for Mental Health and Recovery, a facility that will include afordable housing, rehabilitation, and mental health work.
He’s doing it all in his hometown of Miami, for the city of Miami. It’s how he’ll continue to keep winning of the court, you see. “ or me,
[the best part of life] has always been about helping other people,” he says. “I think I’ve won more than enough for myself; I’ve been chosen to experience so many amazing things. So, from now on, winning is doing what I’m doing for the city of Miami. I’m still in the city every day, so I see the struggles of the people; I’ve never been disconnected. So, every time I see something, I gotta do something about that.”
I believe him. UD is clever, resilient, and loyal — and most importantly, he cares. He’s aware that the legacy he’s leaving isn’t just for himself, but for his city, for his people, his family, those that have sacrifced so much for him to get to where he is today.
It is those that he carries with him everywhere in the form of tattoos, ashing at me like beacons in the warm afternoon light in honor of his kids, his wife, the friends and family members who have passed away, his grandparents, his stepmother, his father, and even himself as a baby, a reminder of the child he was and how far he’s come. There is also a tattoo just for his mother, an inspirational woman who overcame drug addiction and homelessness to help others fnd their way and make it in life, too just as he is doing now.
Then there is the other member of his family: his home. The state of Florida is large and prominent on his back, an homage not just to the Magic City, but to the Sunshine State itself. And, of course, at the heart of it all is Miami, the city that shaped him and the city which he, in turn, has left an indelible mark on — and which he will continue to leave a mark on.
“The plan,” he says, “is to continue to embrace the city of Miami and invest in myself. I’m going to stay in the city and hopefully continue to help this championship organization play for further championships, stay at a championship level, and go beyond that. I want to be a part of the ongoing evolution of the Miami Heat.”
And how does he plan on doing that? Well, as with everything he does, UD is going all in. There will be no coaching for him, thanks — he wants ownership of the team that fostered him. “The next phase for me is to sit next to the people who really move the needle within the organization [president] Pat Riley and [owner] Micky Arison — guys who I can learn and grow from. I want to sit next to them, to be in the ownership space,” he says. “That’s something I aspire to do, and it’s a conversation that I’m starting to have, and going to continue to have. I spent 20 years on the sidelines. If I was the coach, I would still be on the sidelines. I’d still be living and dying with every loss. For me, it makes sense to maximize my potential and my growth.”
I hear him and believe that, for him, anything is possible. As UD himself says, “I was a guy from Miami who became the longestrunning Heat player in history. I’ve exceeded every expectation anybody could have ever put on me. And I want to share that: that if you do things the right way, this could be the result. I’m a three-time NBA champion with the most rebounds in our organization. I’ve been here for 20 years. I was the oldest player in the NBA and the longesttenured with the Miami Heat. All of this can happen. All of this did happen. I have no regrets and no complaints.”
ALL THAT SHINES
HOW AVI HIAEVE OF AVI & CO. BUILT HIS BURGEONING BRAND ON TRUST AND PASSION.
BY ADRIENNE FAUROTEAVI HIAEVE, THE CEO AND FOUNDER OF THE ESTEEMED luxury watch and jewelry boutique Avi & Co., is at the forefront of the industry, with his fnger on the pulse of high-end and custom timepieces and bespoke jewelry. At the helm of the brand, Hiaeve called on his passion to not only start the company but also to lead it today. As a young teenager, Hiaeve moved to New York City with the great tenacity to build something meaningful and con uer “the American dream” — and indeed, he did. On the heels of the incredibly successful opening of Avi Co. in the prestigious Miami Design District, Haute Living sat down with Hiaeve to discuss everything from how he got started in the industry to how he evolved the business and his goals for the years to come.
HAUTE LIVING: How did you get started in the industry?
AVI HIAEVE: I moved to New York from Israel with my parents when I was 14 years old. When I arrived, the only nglish I knew was “yes” and “no.” I worked at my mom’s cousin’s store on the weekend, downtown on Canal Street, as well as at my dad’s jewelry store in Long Island a few days a week. I was making crazy sales and getting paid 40 a day, and then I would come out with a 1,000 salary a week because of the commissions.
At 16, I told my parents I wanted to open my own store. With the experience I gained from working since I was 10, I felt motivated and ready I was immersed in the hustle and bustle of the business world. I was never scared. I believed in myself. I believed in the business. I think I’ve experienced many things in life since then, with ups and downs, but the experiences were always good.
We opened the new store, and I was on Canal Street from 16 to 1 years old. I was the best jeweler over there. People started to know me I did good by people. And since day one, I tried to always be real with people. I always cared about my reputation, not just with customers but with everybody: the community, my parents, and my friends.
When I turned 1 , I knew I wanted to be on 4 th Street. Back then, you couldn’t get a store — no matter what you did or how much money you paid, you couldn’t get a store. However , I got lucky, and
I got the store. The early days were just building my reputation, doing good by clients and vendors. I wanted to be trustworthy and just do good by the people. It wasn’t easy. It was new to me, but we made it.
HL: How do you continue to grow the business in the current market?
AH: I’m always thinking outside the box, and in the industry, I try to be the frst in everything. We are also expanding, as we’re coming to diferent cities, diferent states, and hopefully, diferent countries.
The Miami store opened on May 4 of 1 weekend in the Miami Design District. I think it was a big achievement because we’re not authorized dealers for Rolex or these brands, but in the Miami Design District, you have to be an authorized dealer to have a store there. But we found a store location. We’re privately owned.
The Miami grand opening went above and beyond what I hoped for — I expected it to be good, but this was something else — above my expectations. I don’t even know how to say it. The only thing I can say is I’m blessed.
HL: Was Miami a market you always wanted to open in? How did it come about?
AH: Yes, this was a market I always wanted to open. I wanted to exceed expectations, and I wanted to create a place aimed at the customers who shop in the Miami Design District. The biggest challenge we came across was that we only had fve weeks to build the store.
The inspiration behind the showroom’s design was simple I had the right team. A designer came up with the idea, and I trusted his imagination 100 . The green inside was inspired by a jungle and forest. I wanted to create a big buzz, and I feel like my mission was accomplished.
HL: Are there any current trends you’ve seen emerge? Are there any brands and models you’re particularly excited about carrying in Avi & Co. right now?
AH: Our Avi Co. watches are fully iced out. They were created by me and my team, inspired by the legacy of a man who built his home from the ground up. The pattern on the bracelet mimics the house’s deck, and the dial is like the brick of the driveway. It was produced in our factory. I’m working on a whole line of limited-edition plain watches with special movements, which should be coming out soon.
HL: What are your goals for the next few years?
AH: Diamonds by Avi is going to be certifed by Avi Co. These pieces will be high-end, IA emological Institute of America certifed, and will vary from S to S. I’m trying not to use any SI uality or lower. I’m trying to bring it to a new level. verything will be designed by us. An achievement after that is to open more stores. I want to come out of the Diamond District in New York, as we outgrew this place. I feel our company should be somewhere by Madison, ifth Avenue, or next to the big brands that built their name. I think that we can fnally say that we have a big brand.
If you want to buy the right thing at the right prices, you come to us. I’m saying that proudly because we’ve been here almost 20 years in this industry. If you do good, then your reputation comes with it. or all I know, we can open airlines we can open hotels — we can open anything. We built a trustworthy brand where people will feel comfortable doing transactions with us.
HL: You’ve also built an extensive celebrity clientele. How do you maintain those relationships?
AH: With high-end jewelry and timepieces come high-end buyers, including celebrities. I have always been natural at creating relationships with people, no matter who they are. I don’t chase after people. Instead, I like to have direct relationships with everyone to create that bond between buyer and seller and, more importantly, person to person.
HL: Looking back, what are some key lessons you have learned in building your business? Is there anything you wish you could tell your younger self?
AH: verybody is special. This company is like a car. If one wheel is out, you can’t drive. I don’t look at anyone as smalle r than another person because they are very important to this company to keep growing.
I don’t look back on any of my accomplishments with regret. There is nothing I wish I had known sooner. I believe I got what was mine at the right moment and that everything happens for a reason. I had a dream. All I needed was a dollar. They say in America all you need is a dollar and a dream, right? My dad gave me the dollar. I had the dream. I put it together.
HL: You are also known for your extensive watch collection. What are some of your favorite pieces you own?
AH: My frst watch was a Breitling Crosswind Special. It was my favorite watch. I bought it for myself for 2, 00 and sold i t for 3,000.
Other than that, everything has to do with your wrist and your lifestyle. I have a big wrist, so I can’t wear Rolex Presidential Day-Dates. or some people, it looks amazing, and I love the watch. very watch we have in inventory is based on my taste and what I think people like, including what’s popular in the market. I don’t buy things just to buy them. I purchase diferent watches, diferent styles, and I don’t feel like there is a best or that any watch we sell is the best.
If I had to pick one, though, I love Richard Mille. They’re big and comfortable. I also love the bling on the Rolex Sky-Dweller. But my new favorite is the Avi Co. watch.
2023 IS THE YEAR OF LAS VEGAS. SIN CITY HAS NEVER BEEN HOTTER — BOTH literally and metaphorically (summer temperatures do top out at 120 degrees, after all). With F1 making its debut on The Strip in November, Super Bowl LVIII hitting in February 2024, and the unexpected surprise of a Stanley Cup win for the NHL’s Vegas Golden Knights this year, there really isn’t another city in the States that’s living as large. As such, it’s a city in ux, constantly evolving, with a seemingly endless string of exciting new openings. Here are the haute highlights of where to stay, play, dine, and drink in this haute Nevada city.
HOTELS & CASINOS
Most major hotel news is coming sometime in the near future, though currently, all 14 MGM Resorts properties are upping their health game with Stay Well accommodations: overnights that include elevated wellness amenities such as air purifcation, aromatherapy, dawn simulation, and itamin C-infused showers that reduce chlorine to keep hair and skin supple and silky. The Bellagio has followed suit, shelling out $110 million for its new Spa Tower, which is inspired by the beauty and tranquility of Italy’s Lake Como. Bally’s made its ofcial metamorphosis into the Horseshoe last year, while the ertitta brothers — Frank III and Lorenzo — are adding to their Station Casinos portfolio with the $750 million Durango, built on 71 acres of vacant land on Durango Drive, with an opening slated for Q4. The Strip will also see a Sin City outpost of Jef Sofer’s high-end Miami Beach hotel, the ontainebleau, this year, while a Dream Hotel is coming in 2025.

DINING & DRINKING
A slew of new and noteworthy eateries have hit The Strip and beyond. Tao Group Hospitality is churching things up over at Aria Resort & Casino with the debut of Cathédrale, a stunning, Rockwell Group-designed eatery that originated in New York City’s East Village even bigger, badder, and more grandiose than its predecessor, while Easy’s, also at Aria, is a sexy speakeasy from Clique Hospitality located in the new, high-end Proper Eats Food Hall that features live music and showstopping cocktails.

DURING APRIL’S MILAN DESIGN WEEK, LOUIS VUITTON UNVEILED
11 NEW, EXQUISITE OBJETS NOMADES, ONCE AGAIN PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF DESIGN.
BY ADRIENNE FAUROTE PHOTOS COURTESY OF LOUIS VUITTONMeticulously crafted by some of the world’s most distinguished design talents, namely Atelier Oï, Raw-Edges, Atelier Biagetti, Marcel Wanders, Zanellato/Bortotto, Studio Louis Vuitton, and Campana, the new Objets Nomades redefine the relationship between design and the space in which it sits. The Objets Nomades collection has had remarkable success since its inception in 2012 and now boasts over 60 extraordinary pieces. The latest additions continue to set a new design standard in the industry.
BINDA ARMCHAIR BY RAW-EDGES
Raw-Edges’ exquisite Binda armchair is a harmonious blend of “flowing, sharply honed lines,” a leather-covered back, and a soft velvet seat with contrasting piping — available in five captivating color combinations — o ering a sculptural and gracefully imposing piece that beautifully embodies the transformation of flat planes into three-dimensional objects.
TWIST GLASS BY STUDIO LOUIS VUITTON
With the Twist Glass, Studio Louis Vuitton reimagines its iconic Monogram flower into a mesmerizing whirl of handblown glass handcrafted in Murano, the heart of Italian glassmaking, that features exquisite engravings and a spectrum of five elegant colors.
ORIGAMI
The Origami Bowls elegantly merge functionality and artistry and feature a threedimensional form crafted from a single piece of carefully folded leather, giving a stylish home to trinkets and treasures.
The bookends are available in three designs — the Flower and Diamond designs in solid marble, inspired by the iconic Monogram pattern, and the Namiki, a brushed and polished aluminum replica of the extraordinary building in Tokyo designed by Jun Aoki — o ering versatile and artistic décor options for book lovers and design enthusiasts alike.
Zanellato/Bortotto’s Basket Table — designed for both indoor and outdoor spaces — is a true work of art in which the leather-woven honeycomb motifs gracefully complement the reflective enameled lava-stone top.
FLOWER TOWER BY ATELIER BIAGETTI
Atelier Biagetti’s Flower Tower lamp is an innovative, handblown Italian glass column with flower-shaped bubbles that seem to float on halos of light, o ering a delicately decorative and highly functional lighting experience with separate LED spotlights and dimmers and serving as a contemporary glass totem illuminating special emotions in the home.
CAPELINE BY MARCEL WANDERS
Marcel Wanders’ Capeline lamp, available as a wall lamp or ceiling light (in two sizes), gracefully showcases three undulating aureoles of frosted glass inspired by a wide-brimmed women’s hat, creating a dynamic di used glow from its dimmable LED.
PIVA LAMP BY ATELIER OÏ
The Piva Lamp, taking inspiration from an open pinecone, presents an imposing fusion of frosted glass “bracelets” and exquisitely arranged leather “petals” in various colorways, creating a sculpture that mesmerizes with its changing colors and captivating interplay of light.
CHANDELIER BY ATELIER OÏ
Atelier Oï’s Spiral Chandelier, originally created as a lighting feature for a restaurant in Louis Vuitton’s Chengdu store, is now available in a 1.2-meter home version that showcases 36 elegantly twisted bicolor leather straps with champagne-colored metal circles and LEDs and can be paired with the leather-strap Spiral Lamp in three captivating color combinations.
QUETZAL BY ATELIER OÏ
Taking inspiration from the vibrant plumage of Central American quetzals, the Quetzal features 13 rigid, twisting “feathers” covered in Louis Vuitton leather of blue and green hues accented with dyed red edges, abstracting the vision of a quetzal in flight.
SPECIAL EDITION COCOON BY CAMPANA
To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Objets Nomades, this special edition “Disco” Cocoon sees the iconic Objet Nomades Cocoon transform from a sculptural piece of furniture into a work of art with over 10,000 mirrored tiles.
SPECIAL EDITION BOMBOCA BY CAMPANA
Similar to the special edition Cocoon, the special edition Bomboca evolves into a marvelous piece of art that requires two weeks of polishing for its sparkling mirror appearance.

JEWELS ROMAN
BY ADRIENNE FAUROTEDuring couture this season, Fendi unveiled its debut high jewelry collection, Fendi Triptych, designed by Delfina Delettrez Fendi. Celebrating the feminine grace and the architectural beauty of Roman façades, the collection is divided into three captivating chapters — Roma Rosa, Gioiello Giallo, and Bianco Brillante — revealing a kaleidoscope of white diamonds, pale pinks, and yellows meticulously chosen by the House gemologist. Each unique creation embodies historic elements from the Fendi lexicon, transforming the calligraphic “FF” motif into delicate expressions that subvert traditional jewelry construction, creating new Fendi heirlooms. From necklaces to bracelets, cocktail rings, and earrings, a play of sensuality and geometry unfolds throughout each chapter. The Roma Rosa chapter evokes faded marbles and frescoes with delicate pink sapphires, while Gioiello Giallo showcases joyful Fendi yellow and sunset shades in diamonds and sapphires. Bianco Brillante celebrates the pure sparkle of all-white diamonds in dazzling designs that transcend time — a design ethos that remains at the heart of Fendi.
A NEW ERA
Jean Arnault writes a new chapter for Louis Vuitton watchmaking with the new Tambour.
BY ADRIENNE FAUROTEIN 2021, THE WATCH INDUSTRY WAS ABUZZ AS JEAN ARNAULT, the youngest Arnault in the LVMH Group, stepped into his role in the Watch Division at Louis uitton. Last year, Arnault ofcially rose to the lead role as the watch director with a vision for the brand that the watch industry was patiently awaiting to uncover. Through teasers on his Instagram here and there, Arnault slowly revealed his style and keen sense of the industry — and if there’s one thing we’re certain of, Jean may be the youngest Arnault, but he has quite the mature spirit.
In 2002, Louis uitton made a signifcant mark in the watchmaking industry with the introduction of the Tambour watch. Known for its distinctive drum-shaped case and innovative interpretation of time, the Tambour quickly became one of the brand’s iconic timepieces. Now, after 21 years, under the direction of Arnault, Louis Vuitton unveils the next evolution of the Tambour, featuring a slimmer design characterized by exceptional craftsmanship, casual elegance, and uid lines — making it uite the retreat from its predecessors.
The Tambour watch is instantly recognizable by its round case, curved sides, and the 12 letters spelling “Louis Vuitton” around its bezel. These defning elements are meticulously maintained and amplifed in the latest iteration of the Tambour. The new model boasts a modern, unisex 40-millimeter diameter; a slim 8.3-millimeter case thickness; and an integrated bracelet, a Louis uitton frst. The bracelet’s curved links provide a comfortable ft on the wrist, rivaling the softness of a leather strap. Every aspect of the Tambour’s design serves a purpose, from the ergonomically shaped caseback that follows the curve of the forearm to the seamlessly integrated bracelet that melds with the case, resulting in a truly harmonious timepiece.
Craftsmanship is at the heart of the new Tambour, evident in its thoughtful detailing and tactile fnishes. The brushed surfaces, polished chamfers, and drum-shaped crown with soft grooves make for a sensory indulgence when interacting with the watch. The sandblasted bezel features raised and polished letters, precisely sculpted to align with the hour markers. The dial showcases impressive depth and three-dimensionality, with recessed fve-
minute markers and appliques for the hours. Thanks to the use of Super-LumiNova, the dial remains legible even in low-light conditions. The openworked white gold hands not only enhance visibility but also create a sense of space on the dial. The central brushed dial section proudly displays “Louis Vuitton Paris,” signifying the brand’s origins, while “Fab. En Suisse” below the small seconds counter pays tribute to La Fabrique du Temps Louis Vuitton, emphasizing the exceptional craftsmanship behind this timepiece. Inside, the new Tambour beats to the Caliber LFT023 — a proprietary automatic three-hand movement designed by Louis Vuitton in collaboration with Le Cercle des Horlogers. This movement perfectly embodies the Maison’s visual codes and features a barrel cover reminiscent of the Monogram Flower and a micro-rotor decorated with a stylized “LV” motif. The contemporary aesthetics continue with micro-sandblasted bridges, polished edges, chamfers, and a circular-grained main plate. The Caliber LFT023 boasts a high-inertia, 22-karat gold micro-rotor and a peripheral gearing system, enabling efcient winding and a power reserve of 0 hours. Certifed as a chronometer by the Geneva Chronometric Observatory, this movement meets the highest standards of timekeeping accuracy.
With the introduction of the new Tambour watch, a glimpse into the incredibly promising future of Louis Vuitton watchmaking is revealed. It’s been said that Louis Vuitton will cut about 80% of its watch collection to focus on upscaling its timepieces, and we can’t wait to see what is next with Arnault at the helm.

HAUTE CEO
Jean-Marc Pontroué, CEO of Panerai.
BY ADRIENNE FAUROTEHAUTE TIME SAT DOWN WITH PANERAI’S CEO, JEAN-MARC Pontroué, during two major moments for the brand this year: Watches and Wonders 2023 in Geneva and his ribbon-cutting alongside Chris Pratt to mark the opening of Casa Panerai on Manhattan’s highly coveted Madison Avenue.
After holding positions at esteemed watch brands like Montblanc and Roger Dubuis, Pontroué joined Panerai in April 2018. Since Pontroué has been at the helm of the Panerai brand, he has brought its history and story to the modern era with incredible storytelling through global Panerai openings, new timepiece releases, and synergistic partnerships. Ahead, we go on the clock with Pontroué, discussing everything from this year’s Watches and Wonders novelties and the opening of Casa Panerai in New York to what’s next for the Panerai brand this year.
Haute Time: Can you walk us through Panerai’s theme at Watches and Wonders this year?
Jean-Marc Pontroué: When we started thinking about the 2023 Watches and Wonders exhibition two years ago, we wanted to have something with three stages, like the very frst fairs where Panerai showcased at over 100 years ago. So, this year is all about our heritage. Here, in our world, all of the pieces in the windows are antique — not replicas — which is really rare. We [also] have some watches with original movements.
The booth concept is inspired by Eilean, a Bermudan ketch from the 1930s we found abandoned and in a state of advanced disrepair on the island of Antigua in 2006. The boat underwent a complete restoration that took over three years to complete. It has naturally become part of Panerai heritage. The booth is designed as a journey to immerse in its icons, brand pillars, and above all, the Radiomir collection for afcionados as well as those interested in Panerai’s rich history.
HT: What is your favorite timepiece this year?
JP: This one (as he points to his wrist) — the Radiomir California. It is inspired by the historic Ref. 3646 from the archives of the Maison. The California dial is characterized by alternating Roman and Arabic numerals, bar indexes, and a minute track. The California showcases a characteristic antiquated look, accentuating its appeal to watch connoisseurs in search of authenticity and storied timepieces. As you can see, it wasn’t necessary to have the name on the dial because you immediately know it is Panerai.
HT: What are your goals for Panerai for the 2023 year?
JP: Watches and Wonders, for me, is like a fashion show. It’s your staging ceremony; we don’t really need it to sell to trade partners because they have seen most of the novelty pieces before the show. But what is key is that they can come here and touch, see, and experience the product in reality. It is also an occasion where we can meet press face to face. The beauty of the watch fair is being around so many people within a week. So, our intention at Panerai this year is to do what I often say: change everything without changing anything. To keep the Maison as it is, you change everything, but you change nothing.
The Radiomir collection embodies this philosophy. You can change the colors and materials, but the shape of the Radiomir remains the same. It is the celebration of a timeless design but, above all, of our heritage.
HT: On that note, congratulations on the New York Casa Panerai opening. Can you walk us through the process of creating Casa Panerai?
JP: It’s a project we started fve years ago. Being in what is the most successful market for Panerai and a major city in America, we had a presence in New York, but not at the height that the brand deserved to be at. In fact, our presence in Miami or LA was far better than in New York [before Casa Panerai]. We had been researching and receiving hundreds of proposals, but then the pandemic hit, and the project slowed down. It has been conceived and designed entirely by the Panerai Studio, the Maison’s in-house creative agency based in Milan. Today, we have created Casa Panerai. We wanted to have a agship store in a strategic position to make a statement: Madison Avenue was the perfect location to strengthen our presence in the heart of New York, re ecting the vitality of its streetscape. It’s a great milestone for us, as it is also our largest boutique ever; this is how we wanted the brand to exist in the city.
HT: What is the Casa Panerai concept?
JP: The Casa Panerai is a concept we introduced with the New York store. For us, [the term] “Casa Panerai” summarizes well what we mean. Our bouti ues are places to live it is frst a hospitality center — that happens to sell watches. We are here to excite your curiosity as to what the Italian roots of the brand are while also showing what we are doing in Switzerland. It’s an Italian cocktail of creativity with Swiss-made ingredients.
Here, customers will fnd both historical and contemporary timepieces and can interact with the watches without glass barriers. An immersive, multidimensional timeline will take visitors through all our milestones.
or the very frst time, we have a ladies’ department, dedicated to the Luminor Due collection. We have also introduced a lounge and bar area, serving Italian cofee and beverages. Indeed, we called it Bar Italiano. This is to create this slightly disruptive approach in the industry and a welcoming experience. The fact of being Italian, of being a family business, and of being a watchmaker brand is all so special. or newcomers to the Maison, Casa Panerai tells them the uni ue story of Panerai, and for those familiar, it reminds them of it.
HT: Casa Panerai is a monumental moment for the brand. Does this set the tone for Panerai’s expansion in the United States market?
JP: Absolutely. You have to be big in New York, and then that becomes a door opener to do what you want to do. This year, we are opening doors in locations such as Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Topanga, Palo Alto, Boston, Honolulu. We have a lot of new projects in the pipeline in America I believe it’s about 30 store openings in 18 months.
HT: Being at the helm of the brand and its massive global expansion, how do you look at time?
JP: I would need an entire afternoon to reply to the uestion. I hate being late (it can happen easily), and I love to wake up early, at about :30 a.m., no matter where I am. It allows me to have a half hour only for myself where I can live in my bubble. It’s the moment of the day when I can sit with myself, my espresso, and my iPad to read the news, see my agenda, and get into my routine. or me, time is about getting into a rhythm.
Racing With Time
BY ADRIENNE FAUROTEIT’S THE QUINTESSENTIAL NEW YORK SUMMER DAY; THE SUN IS shining, the air is crisp, and it’s quiet — all of the elements that also make for the perfect cycling ride. Cyclists gather right outside of the Tudor boutique in the heart of the Meatpacking District, anxiously awaiting both the ride and the guest accompanying them on the ride. Inside, two-time Olympic gold medalist, professional cyclist, and the leader of the relatively new Tudor Pro Cycling Team, Fabian Cancellara, gears up to ride.
Cancellara’s energy is infectious — his passion for the sport and the joie de vivre of simply living life cannot be ignored. With a professional career spanning over 15 years, achieving some of the greatest accomplishments in the sport — from winning the Paris-Roubaix three times and winning the opening stage of the Tour de rance fve times to winning two Olympic gold medals — Cancellara did not stop when he retired. Depending on your perspective, his clock was just getting started.
“I accomplished almost everything,” he admits. “Yet, still today, when I look back on everything, I am happy for what today is and what I have. I miss a few races, but I know my race is not fnished. I returned to racing with the Tudor Pro Cycling Team — that team is my medal today.”
In 2022, the Tudor Pro Cycling Team was conceived by Cancellara and Tudor, who wanted to mirror the structure of the Swiss Racing Academy while also setting the goal to build a team that frst focused on the human element of cycling. It began as a development team, and now, in 2023, it has ofcially become a Swiss professional racing team. “I’m so proud of the Tudor Pro Cycling Team,” Cancellara passionately says. “I am super enthusiastic about the team — not just how it started, but how it came together. I have Tudor as a partner, not a sponsor, and learning from them, as they are the best at what they do, has helped us do things diferently.”
This particular road in Cancellara’s race is all about taking the back seat, as opposed to riding at the front of the pack. “Year two of [the Tudor Pro Cycling Team], I talk less,” he jokes. “It is all about balance, and I have taken the back seat, as I know how it is in the front. It makes me so happy that I can be a part of this project and bring it on the road, pushing people in the right direction.”
Cancellara stands at the team’s helm, becoming an incredible mentor for the cyclists.
For Cancellara, one thing is certain: the human connection is imperative.
“On the [Tudor Pro Cycling Team], we have questioned our world of cycling, setting certain standards. I believe if you want to be diferent, you uestion things. We have put the right people together, and while the product (like the watch or the bike) matters, the people behind the product are even more important because of the human element,” he says.
But he certainly cannot deny the tools that help enhance the human experience of cycling, as we both glance down at the Pro Cycling team’s incredibly exclusive watch, the Black Bay Chrono — a watch and cycling enthusiast’s dream.
Cancellara’s perspective on the sport transcends beyond cycling, into a feeling. In fact, even the watch he wears evokes a feeling for him.
“Receiving this watch [the Tudor 41-millimeter burgundy Black Bay] was a special moment for me — it was a completely unexpected moment,” he shares. “[The watch] even has a special engraving for me.” Glancing down, he adds, “I do feel bad it is scratched, but I wear it; the watch is meant to be worn and used.”
And while watches are integral to racing and life, time itself is crucial for Cancellara. “We live in the 24 hours,” he says, admitting at times he wishes there were more hours. “We are lucky we have a clock — it stops you, makes you think, and gives you [your] time.”
Racing against the clock has certainly dominated Cancellara’s time thus far, but fortunately, it hasn’t clouded his reason for riding. “It is hard to fnd a passion in something you like where it becomes a hobby and then a professional job, but for me, riding is still my passion. I still like to explore wherever I am in the world on the bike,” says Cancellara, then re ecting, “I actually started cycling in front of my parents, and they saw me pedaling, then eventually pedaling away — it’s a life journey.”
Indeed, cycling and time make up the circle of Cancellara’s life, and we patiently wait to see where he takes the Tudor Pro Cycling Team to next.
On the clock with cycling legend & leader of the Tudor Pro Cycling Team, Fabian Cancellara.

However, prioritizing regular brushing sessions is crucial for the health and appearance of your teeth.

brightly. With pool days and beach picnics now a part of our weekend traditions, it’s crucial to protect ourselves from the giant star’s harmful rays. While wearing sunscreen should be a daily practice, we understand that not everyone follows all recommendations and that some of us occasionally forget. However, it’s essential to be aware that skin cancer is America’s most prevalent cancer, with over 5 million cases diagnosed in the United States each year. There is even a full month of promoting melanoma and skin cancer awareness (May), highlighting the importance of education and prevention. The statistics speak for themselves, which is why our Haute Beauty experts strongly emphasize the importance of daily sunscreen application. To simplify your lives, here are their recommended sunscreens.
DR. ALONSO MARTIN | MEDICAL SPA | MIAMI BEACH, FL
In a world where harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays reign supreme, sunscreen has become an indispensable ally in our daily lives. My all-time favorite (I’ve tried them all) is Sunforgettable Total Protection Face Shield Glow SPF 50 by Colorescience. It is elegant, 100% mineral, chemical free, hydrating, antioxidant rich, and provides a “pearlescent illuminating glow.” Besides how fabulous it looks and feels, it “provides environmental protection against UVA/UVB, pollution, blue light, and infrared radiation,” [according to Colorescience].
Beyond the perception that it’s solely for beachgoers, sunscreen is an essential shield against the invisible threats lurking in our surroundings. With skin cancer rates soaring, its signifcance cannot be overstated. Sunscreen acts as a guardian, protecting our largest organ from harmful UV radiation that causes premature aging, sunburns, and melanoma. It ofers a crucial defense against the harmful efects of excessive sun exposure, preserving our skin’s health and vitality. So, embrace the sunscreen ritual, for its protection is a vital lifeline in the pursuit of a sun-safe existence.
REFINE HEALTH | MEDICAL AESTHETICS | CORAL GABLES/ MIAMI, FL
Living in South Florida prioritizes the education and maintenance of skin protection. A high UV index can cause extreme damage to your skin and place you at risk for developing melanoma. At Refne Health, we implement and educate all our patients on the importance of maintaining their skin health. Our patients, investing in their aesthetic concerns using neurotoxins, fllers, Sculptra, Morpheus8, and facials, are educated to continue their investment by applying their daily sunscreen. Here at Refne Health, we ofer medical-grade sunscreen by SkinCeuticals. The SkinCeuticals Physical Fusion UV Defense SP 0 sunscreen protects your skin and ofers brightening benefts. Come by to pick up your sunscreen as the summer [heats up].
DR. ANNA CHACON | SKIN | MIAMI, FL
Since most of us don’t apply as much sunscreen as we should and don’t reapply throughout the day, we’re not getting as much protection as labeled on the bottle. Choosing the highest level of SPF available brings you closer to ade uate protection. With no thick fnish, Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunscreen 100 ofers efective sun protection. With Dry-Touch technology, this broad-spectrum SPF 100 sunscreen lotion absorbs extra sunscreen oils for a fresh, ultra-light feel and shine-free fnish. Helioplex, an innovative sunscreen technology with improved broad-spectrum protection from skin-aging UVA rays and skin-burning UVB rays, is another component of the recipe that has been clinically confrmed to work. This non-oily, [water-resistant] formula is quick to absorb, PABA [paraaminobenzoic acid] free, and non-comedogenic.
BELLAGENA
SKINCARE STUDIO & MED SPA | DAY SPA | BRADENTON, FL
At Bellagena Med Spa, [we] have our own formulated sun care products, so Bella Skin Sunshade is my favorite sun protection. Its broad spectrum protects against harmful UVA and UVB rays, reducing the risk of skin cancer. The lightweight formula is perfect for all skin tones and leaves no greasy residue. Sunshade is enriched with antioxidants, fghting free radicals and promoting healthier skin. Its water resistance provides long-lasting defense, ideal for outdoor activities. The non-irritating and hypoallergenic nature of Sunshade makes it suitable for sensitive skin, providing a gentle yet efective barrier. With its high-quality ingredients and dedication to sun protection, Bella Skin Sunshade is my trusted ally in safeguarding against melanoma.
DR. BERTHA BAUM | SKIN | MIAMI, FL
My favorite sunscreen is the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist Sunscreen SP 30. I absolutely love how it provides efective sun protection while also giving a beautiful glow to the body, making it cosmetically elegant. It’s perfect for special events where I want to look and feel my best.
DR. AMIR MORTAZAVI | MEDICAL SPA | ORANGE COUNTY, CA
My go-to sunscreen is Botanic Noir’s Ultralight Daily SPF 45. Botanic Noir’s Ultralight Daily SPF 45 is a revolutionary sunscreen that combines the power of sun protection with the purity of botanical ingredients. This lightweight formula provides broad-spectrum protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays, shielding your skin from the sun’s damaging efects. Infused with botanical extracts like green tea, aloe vera, and chamomile, it nourishes and soothes the skin while delivering hydration and a matte fnish. The non-greasy, fastabsorbing texture makes it perfect for everyday use, allowing you to enjoy the outdoors without compromising on skin care. Botanic Noir’s Ultralight Daily SPF 45 is the ultimate companion for healthy, protected, and radiant skin.
DR. MARA WEINSTEIN VELEZ | SKIN | ROCHESTER, NY
With all of the things we look forward to with [summertime], it’s important to remember our sunscreen each and every day. My go-to sunscreen is the Alastin HydraTint Pro Mineral Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 36. HydraTint is your daily sunscreen, moisturizer, and foundation all in one. HydraTint is a lightweight, mineral, broad-spectrum tinted sunscreen. Not only is it going to protect your skin from UVA and UVB rays, it’s also extremely hydrating and gives a cosmetically elegant glow to the skin. With titanium dioxide and zinc oxide as its main protecting ingredients, HydraTint also is enriched with antioxidants and botanical extracts to help prevent air pollution-induced oxidative stress to the skin. A win-win.
DR. KIRAN MIAN, HUDSON DERMATOLOGY & LASER SURGERY | SKIN | NEW YORK, NY
The one sunscreen I cannot live without is by Cosrx. Their Vitamin E Vitalizing Sunscreen SPF 50+ sunscreen has vitamin E, which works really well for my dry skin. I love this sunscreen because, being South Asian, I’m always on the hunt for a physical sunscreen that does not leave a white cast. This formula is elegant and perfect under makeup.
ELIVATE MEDSPA WELLNESS | MEDICAL SPA | STAMFORD/ GREENWICH, CT
If I had to choose one sunscreen that I could not live without, it would be Alastin HydraTint Pro Mineral Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 36. It has become a staple in my beauty and skin care routine because it is way more than just your typical sunscreen. It is so lightweight and not only gives me protection but leaves my skin with a gorgeous soft glow. In addition, it is all mineral, super hydrating, and has a bonus of powerful antioxidants to help protect the skin from UVA/UVB and pollution, IR [infrared] rays, and blue light. How cool is that?
The ingredients are amazing, and the glowing tint is suitable for all skin types. I use it in place of makeup every single day, every single season, so it makes it impossible for me to forget. When a patient asks for the one thing they can’t walk out without, it is defnitely Alastin’s HydraTint Pro Mineral. Oh, and did I mention that not only does it slow down skin’s aging process by protecting it from harmful rays, but it contains ectoin, which, [according to Alastin], helps “repair sun damage that has already occurred within the skin”? … Keep covered and try this anti-aging powerhouse.

RECHARGE AND RESET AT THESE LUXURIOUS WELLNESS RESORTS.

SENSEI PORCUPINE CREEK
Sensei, a leading global wellness brand developed by Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison and scientist Dr. David Agus, has come to Southern California and, with it, has launched its newest well-being program focused on sleep and stress management called Rest and Recovery. The program is designed to help guests develop practices to return to a mind-body equilibrium, create space for introspection, and develop a way to manage everyday stress. In this structured five-day program, guests will work with a personalized “Sensei guide” and a team of experienced practitioners to analyze their current physical and mental state, learn stress management techniques, and reframe their perceptions of their personal movement, nourishment, and rest practices. Using historical and real-time data captured by a complimentary Whoop 4.0 band, each guest will be analyzed using key biomarkers of rest and recovery, including sleep quality, heart rate variability, blood pressure, and heart rate recovery. And to be honest, Ellison and Agus couldn’t have picked a better place to focus on recovery: at the base of the Santa Rosa Mountains near Palm Springs, this former private estate o ers it all, including luxurious accommodations, spa gardens, golf and tennis facilities, and Sensei by Nobu dining for guests of the resort.

MII AMO
After a two-year closure, Sedona’s award-winning destination spa Mii Amo has finally reopened, debuting a $40 million renovation and expansion. There’s something magical about Sedona, in general, and Mii Amo’s location, nestled at the base of Boynton Canyon among imposing red rocks, in particular. It’s the perfect place to find full healing of the mind, body, and soul. There’s certainly more, now than ever before, to love: the spa has increased to 42,000 square feet of space, inclusive of a new sensory garden; there’s a new restaurant, Hummingbird; a two-story movement and fitness studio; a reflexology path; and redesigned and enhanced public spaces, including a dedicated consultation wing. The expansion also includes 16 fully renovated casitas in addition to seven new casita rooms and suites, for a total of 23 guest rooms, all of which are a blend of earth-colored concrete, wood, adobe brick, and stucco as a foil to the natural landscape; a new minimum treatment length of 75 minutes; new outdoor features, such as a labyrinth, hammock grove, and yoga lawn, all with views of the surrounding red rock walls and formations; a refreshed pool and pool deck; and a new 10-night “Journey” alongside the traditional three-, four- and sevennight Journey o erings, which include accommodations, food and beverage, daily treatments, access to all facilities, and more than 50 weekly activities, such as hikes, fitness classes, lectures, and workshops. Guests of both Mii Amo and its neighboring big sister, Enchantment, have access to a 400-mile trail network as well as the spa, which has every mystical healing treatment imaginable, including chakra balancing, cupping, dosha wraps, hypnosis, energy clearing, reiki, past-life regression, aura photography, and the sublime “Reading of the Moment” — a combination of tarot, palmistry, numerology, and pendulum reading that absolutely changed this particular writer’s life.

THE ORIGINAL FX MAYR
The Original FX Mayr is an OG authority in the wellness space, giving just as good today as it did when it opened its doors in 1976 on the shores of Lake Wörthersee as the first-ever residential clinic to o er the famous Mayr “cure” – a system of health prevention based on the premise that giving the digestive system a break allows the body to profoundly heal itself elsewhere. More than 45 years later, its legend is still living on, but with a whole fresh, updated look and progressive new approach. Gone are the days of the sparse and unforgiving regime with an interior to match. Now, FX Mayr is all about beauty: a cream dream outfitted with blankets, flowers, and candles. Silent dining and mindful chewing are still encouraged, but now, guests are served a menu of delicious seasonal, regionally sourced, and beautifully presented food (though mini portions and mild Epsom salts ensure results). The Original FX Mayr o ers a 360-degree approach to health, with exercise as a focus. Daily guided hikes and cold-water swims in the lake are part of the program (including an accompanying Finnish sauna and samarium afterward), as are therapies from shiatsu to reflexology and emotional coaching sessions. The full program includes a Mayr lab diagnostics blood test; a 3D body scan and movement check; metabolic analysis; a medical abdominal treatment; detox and classic massages; lymph drainage; an alkaline detox bath; and three hay flower detox wraps.

HILTON HEAD HEALTH
Some health resorts are all about weight loss, while others are all about yoga. At Hilton Head Health, located on the beautiful and picturesque island of Hilton Head, South Carolina, a stay is focused on giving guests a much-needed reset — whatever that personally looks like. The facility itself is nestled inside the 800-acre Shipyard seaside community, close to the beach with miles of walking and bike paths, nature tours, golf, and kayaking. It’s the perfect place to revitalize your life, whether that be through weight loss, fitness, or mindfulness. Its ReNew program is actually tailored to escaping stress and delivering long-lasting wellness for the mind, body, and soul, starting the moment you arrive with a life-balance assessment to help formulate goals and strategies for improving overall health and wellness and addressing any blockages (the kind we impose on ourselves). The program also includes a spa service, self-care workshops and presentations, and access to fitness classes, wellness lectures, yoga, and more. Meals are tailored to your needs; and curated o erings, like a health screening that measures weight, body measurements, body mass index, resting heart rate, resting blood pressure, and lipids (fasting glucose, HDL, LDL, total cholesterol, triglycerides), and a metabolic assessment are also included.

Could there be a more beautiful location for a wellness retreat than the white-sand shores of Miami Beach? Consider that a rhetorical question. Carillon Miami Wellness Resort isn’t just a gorgeous spot to let the healing begin, though — it’s innovative as all get-out. Carillon is home to the largest spa on the Eastern Seaboard (70,000 square feet), with a one-of-a-kind touchless wellness division — essential in this post-COVID world — that addresses a range of health and wellness concerns, from anti-aging, muscle recovery, and PTSD to stress management and more. Its Biostation introduces guests to cutting-edge therapies that prevent and reverse the impacts of aging on the body, such as hormone replacement therapy for men and women, nutrient therapy, and human growth hormone and peptide therapy. There’s a holistic center, led by Dr. Irina Logman, which o ers a personalized and integrative approach to traditional Chinese medicine, inclusive of acupuncture, cupping, and gua sha. The completely innovative Energy Science center, led by Julie Kramer, uses SoundBiotics, microcurrency, electromagnetic frequency, and light spectrum therapy, as well as molecular hydrogen and oxygen inhalation to determine what imbalances are in your body. And in case you’re in shock at the plethora of o erings, I’m not done yet. Carillon also o ers mindset transformation, energy healing, and over 75 fitness classes, with options such as yoga, Pilates, indoor rock climbing, cycling, TRX strength, and kinesis, as well as a two-story fitness center on site. As if that weren’t enough, its primary restaurant, Tambourine Room by Tristan Brandt, with its fusion of French and Asian cuisine, was just awarded its first Michelin star this year. 6801 Collins Ave., Miami Beach, FL 33141
THE RANCH ITALY AT PALAZZO FIUGGI
The Ranch Malibu, a SoCal-based wellness retreat, featuring acclaimed, results-oriented fitness and wellness programs, is has now brought a five-day version of its signature week-long program to Italy. This abbreviated format is designed to help guests jumpstart a path toward better health while delivering physical results, mental clarity, and medical insight over a long-weekend stay in the exquisite Italian countryside at Palazzo Fiuggi, a new medical wellness retreat just 50 minutes from Rome. The Ranch Italy 4.0 features the same active daily schedule and diagnostic testing as The Ranch Italy’s eight-day program. From Thursday to Monday, 25 guests will experience a four-hour morning mountain hike, nap time, afternoon strength and core training classes, restorative yoga, and a daily massage; diagnostic testing, a blood panel, and a medical consultation are all part of the program, as well. The active schedule is complemented by a plant-based menu. When you depart, you’ll leave with muscle gain, loss of fat and inches, stress reduction, and mental clarity, which is just as priceless as it sounds.
Via dei Villini, 34, 03014 Fiuggi FR, ItalyGOLDEN DOOR
Golden Door, located just outside of San Diego in San Marcos, California, has long been recognized globally as a pioneer in wellness, and now, it’s unveiling a brand-new look thanks to a multimillion-dollar renovation that includes a complete overhaul of the pools and bathhouse — adding private dressing rooms, new tile and flooring, a new Jacuzzi, a soaking tub, a wet room with a seven-hose Vichy shower, a LightStim LED experience room, a visual healing space, a steam room, and a sauna — as well as updates and enhancements to the gyms and all 40 guest rooms. Its ethos stays the same: a true Japanese aesthetic, inspired by a traditional ryokan, which now hovers between the inherent rustic nature of the traditional bathhouse and a more refined space. Accommodations keep that zen feeling alive: all have their own garden deck or patio, supplied clothing (you don’t need to pack a thing!), and skin care products in an onsen-like space, a perfect place to unwind in between the many hours of fitness and adventure programming, mindfulness workshops, spa treatments, nutrition classes, and pain empowerment training. Plus, did I mention that daily in-room massages and facials are included? No? Well, they are, and they’re glorious.

LANSERHOF SYLT
Lanserhof is a name that has become synonymous with health and wellness, which is why I was so excited to see that the brand had opened a new property in Germany. The latest Lanserhof is located on the famous and very exclusive North Sea island of Sylt, directly by the Wadden Sea. A highlight of the new location is its freestanding, circular staircase over five floors, which helps to form the atrium at the heart of the new health resort. This is a truly magical environment, remote and ethereal, a true escape. Yet, its o erings are the same as its predecessors, consistently showcasing the entire medical service portfolio of Lanserhof. To give you an idea of what that looks like, most packages include several medical examinations; abdominal treatments; lab work with a bioimpedance analysis; blood pressure, lactate, and metabolic checks; a heart rate variability check; reflexology massages; detox drainage; and more. O ered therapies include naturopathy, infusion therapy, interval hypoxia-hyperoxia therapy, pain therapy, cryotherapy, nutrition counseling, craniosacral therapy, and shiatsu. A plethora of detox treatments, such as liver cleansing, are also available.
Am Lanserhof 1-8, 25992 List/Sylt, Germany
CLINIQUE LA PRAIRIE
Clinique La Prairie, located in Montreux on the shores of Lac Léman surrounded by the majestic Swiss Alps, is the ultimate place to get your well-being on — and a convenient one, too, given that the resort is an hour’s drive from Geneva Airport and linked to both Milan and Paris by high-speed train. Founded in 1931 by Dr. Paul Niehans, a pioneer in the development of cell therapy, Clinique La Prairie has established an international reputation as a renowned medical clinic and wellness destination. As such, it might be easier to state what isn’t on o er, but that’s not how I operate, so, here I go. Most of the available programs are five or six nights long but can go as long as 14 days. All are planned and created by specialists, with preventative medicine at their core. Based on the clinic’s holistic approach to health care, each program combines medical consultations with nutrition plans, well-being, and relaxation treatments. Its signature program is the Master Detox, which includes DNA testing, complete screenings, and innovative treatments, all tailored to precise DNA and health profiles. O erings here, as I mentioned, are entirely comprehensive: there are stem cell-based face-lift and anti-aging treatments; aesthetic medicine and surgery; on-demand aesthetics using lasers (photo-rejuvenation, vascular, ablative, and hair removal), injections (mesotherapy, body mesotherapy, platelet-rich plasma, hyaluronic acid, and neurorelaxants/ botulinum protein), CoolSculpting, tensor threads, peels, and focused ultrasounds; and holistic beauty. The resort also uses alternative medicine, including acupuncture, dietetics, hypnosis, a medical analysis laboratory, physiotherapy, and sophrology; advanced epigenetic assessments thanks to a collaboration with Genknowme; medical consultations in the spaces of internal medicine, cardiology, diabetology, and endocrinology, among others; and nutritionists — guests are even given a “precise nutrition” diet plan. It’s beyond. Rue du Lac 142, 1815 Clarens, Switzerland
SIX SENSES VANA
Six Senses Vana made its grand debut this past January in the Himalayan foothills just outside of Dehradun, close to Rishikesh, the birthplace of yoga. It is the first dedicated wellness resort for the storied Six Senses brand — an interesting dichotomy of modern meets ancient, fusing together current techniques and technologies with ancient wellness practices and therapies. The magic here lies in the way the resort is able to fuse these elements together. Upon arrival, guests are greeted with a crimson dot placed on their forehead and given kurta pajamas to wear — truly taking all materialistic tendencies o the table — and they are able to focus on healing. Those who come can choose to book a typical stay or focus on something more specific, such as sleep treatments and therapies that include yoga Nidra, holistic massages, and night-time soporific drinks; detox; weight management; Ayurveda, via treatments delivered by doctors and therapists to heal imbalances in the body’s doshas; and Tibetan medicine, being that Six Senses Vana is one of the few places in the world where Sowa Rigpa, which traces back to the eighth century, is o ered. Other innovative o erings include a wellness screening, Watsu, Raag therapy, and an Alchemy Bar where you can even make your own spa products based on your dosha type. You’ll leave the resort with a red string bracelet, which is both a blessing as well as a reminder of your Ayurvedic journey that you can carry with you forever. Mussoorie Road, Uttarakhand, India 248001
ZULAL WELLNESS RESORT BY CHIVA-SOM
Chiva-Som, located near Bangkok, Thailand, has long been considered one of the best wellness resorts in the world. And its new o ering, Zulal Wellness Resort by Chiva-Som, in the World Cup hot spot of Qatar, absolutely follows suit. Zulal has the distinction of being the first full-immersion wellness destination resort in Qatar and the largest in the region. As at Chiva-Som, Zulal — or “purified water” — is firmly rooted in the local culture, conceived and inspired by the integration of natural elements of land and sea while indelibly interweaving the distinctive Qatari landscape through natural materials such as gravel and sand, earth tones accented by blue hues, and traditional wood. Pathways are engraved with Sidr leaves, from a tree known for its valuable healing properties and e ectiveness in relieving anxiety. And that’s the baseline of what you’ll discover here. The resort is the world’s first center for traditional Arabic and Islamic medicine, a system of healing drawn from Islamic medicinal historians and herbalists that is integrated into dedicated programs that last from three nights to 14, all of which place an emphasis on improving diet and nutrition, promoting daily physical activity and stress resistance, enhancing sleep quality, and engaging in joyful activities. There are inspired treatments aplenty, such as traditional Qatari hamiz, a deeply relaxing massage using circular strokes with tadleek oil infused with medicinal herbs and hot stones to re-energize the body; Hijama therapy (cupping therapy); a slimming body mask of camel milk that delivers heat to enhance the metabolic rate while detoxifying the skin; and a range of Arabic spa rituals at the resort’s extensive hammam facilities. Get lost in the extensive facilities, which include two VIP treatment villas; a collection of treatment rooms that include physiotherapy and Ayurvedic rooms; nutritional consultation rooms; steam rooms; skin analysis and aesthetic treatment spaces; fitness pavilions with both a yoga and Pilates studio; a wealth of thermal facilities, including two hammams, two salt caves, two arctic rooms, and four steam rooms; four indoor and two outdoor swimming pools; and a variety of restaurants.

Gil Dezer and Todd
English: A Luxuriously Exclusive Partnership at Bentley Residences
BY MARY GIBSON BENTLEY RESIDENCES IS ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED LUXURY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS IN THE MIAMI AREA.A partnership between Dezer Development and Bentley Motors, the frst-ever Bentley-branded residential tower will feature the patented car elevator, the “Dezervator,” as well as a glass-ensconced garage for residents to keep their cars on display right in their living rooms. The 63-story building will also have an impressive 20,000 s uare feet of exclusive amenities, including whiskey and cigar lounges, a cinema, and the frst private restaurant by awardwinning chef Todd English.
As one of the youngest developers of luxury high-rise residential and condo-hotel properties in the United States, Gil Dezer has been instrumental in changing the face and value of the South Florida real estate industry through the introduction of brand partnerships and is the current president of Dezer Development, which was founded by his father, Michael Dezer.
Dezer has tapped four-time James Beard Award-winning chef Todd nglish to head a residents-only restaurant for the exclusive residences. English is a recognized restaurateur and celebrity who has won multiple culinary awards and opened multiple successful restaurants. He is also an established television personality and producer, having guest-starred on shows such as Top Chef, Iron Chef America, and Martha Stewart Living as well as his own, such as Food Trip With Todd English
Here, the developer and chef chat with Haute Residence about this new collaboration and the uni ue ofering it brings to Miami.
Haute Residence: How did this collaboration come about?
Todd English: It was through mutual friends. We’ve been working on things over the years, and this just seemed to be the right frst project to do together. We’re excited about the collaboration with Bentley and also with il in his great vision of what the building is going to be.
Gil Dezer: Yes, we were connected based on our mutual interest to create this opportunity. We collaborated based on Todd’s stellar reputation, amazing locations with a huge fan base, and, essentially, all of his accolades.
HR: What makes this partnership unique from other luxury residences?
GD: Lots of buildings call themselves “luxury”; however, it’s a word that is used too loosely today. A private residential building should not have a restaurant that’s open to the public. Instead, what defnes the luxury is the privacy and exclusivity of having a four-time James Beard Award-winning chef in your own home without the public even having a chance to go in unless they are invited.
TE: The building speaks for itself. It’s going to be a beautiful restaurant with a uni ue design and gorgeous marble from Italy. You’re really going to be transported when you’re there.
HR: What exactly will the restaurant project be? Will residents be able to have you, specifcally, Chef Todd, cook for them?
TE: Well, it’s a full restaurant, but it’s exclusive to the people that live in the building — so, only residents. We’ll also be able to provide meals for people in their homes, including diferent meal plans, etc. So, it’s really a full-service restaurant, bar, and lounge. And, yes, it is an option for me to specifcally cook for certain folks who sign up.
HR: Gil, what do you see for the future of the Miami real estate development market 10 years from now?
GD: We live in paradise and the world is fnally waking up to it. I used to tell all of my friends in New York, “If you don’t have a place in Miami, you need to get your head checked.” They fnally understood what I meant. verybody came down here and they love it — and what’s not to love HR: Todd, do you have a house in Miami, as well?
TE: I do have a condo. I certainly think it’s really cool up there, in Sunny Isles Beach , absolutely lovely. I might even get an apartment myself, so hopefully, that will be part of what we’re doing. I’ll be there in the residence cooking, for the residence, so I should be a resident.

In just 44 days, 1329 Ponte Vedra Boulevard sold for a record-breaking price of $16,250,000, despite being unfnished. “This is one of the most beautiful oceanfront homes in Ponte Vedra Beach,” says listing agent Gwinn Volen of Keller Williams Luxury. “It’s sleek, modern and incredibly well-built.”
Volen worked with both the seller and buyer and is not at all surprised that the home sold so quickly “Ponte Vedra Beach’s oceanfront property has been undervalued in my opinion, and our market is fnally catching up with South Florida,” says Volen.
The 7,738 square foot estate sits on a 150-wide parcel along the Atlantic Ocean, boasting luxurious features like a 1000 square foot pool and therapy spa. Built with top-quality materials, including concrete block and poured concrete foors and roof, the home’s fnishes were primarily imported from the prestigious Spanish design frm, Porcelanosa. Prices for oceanfront real estate in Ponte Vedra Beach have skyrocketed, reducing opportunities for new construction as demand increases. “Scarcity drives prices,” says Volen. “And, Ponte Vedra Beach is no longer a secret. Our area has been discovered.”

Knot + Tide Interiors is a creative duo made up by Chantal Warmoth and Hillary DiSabato that revels in making dream homes a reality. They’re proud to call Naples and Southwest Florida home, designing and creating high-end, coastal casual, and coastal elegant designed spaces.
Both with design backgrounds that go back to their childhood; the pair met in Naples, Florida, and founded their studio in 2020. The co-founding duo had a vision for sustainable design that was both inspiring and forward-thinking. The two deeply believe that the best designs encompass not only great beauty, but functionality as well.
After the first walkthrough of the property, we quickly realized what this Olde Naples house needed to become a home. Initially, the house was a clash of several different styles and unfinished architectural features that competed with each other. A little all over the place, as we say in the business. Of course, some visual cleanup was in order.
The bones and location screamed casual, light, and coastal; for an ease that could tie the entire home together. By adding layers of texture, soft whites, and blues, we made charm and comfort the forefront of the space. We brought the outdoors in with raw wooden finishes and driftwood accents contrasting with timeless furniture and decor.

McLaren Artura
McLaren brings its “E” game.
BY TIM LAPPENAITH UL R AD RS KNOW THAT I HA A SP CIAL PLAC IN MY H ART for McLaren. I have driven most of their oferings and have enjoyed them all. There’s something that is unmistakable about the McLaren DNA — regardless of what’s on paper, the cars feel faster. No doubt it’s because of (or at least mostly due to) the famous McLaren suspension, which really involves the driver in the entire experience. Whatever the reason, that experience is both engaging and delightful.
The Artura is the frst of McLaren’s Supercar series to utilize hybrid power. Like McLaren’s Ultimate series P1 and Speedtail, the Artura combines a gasoline-powered motor (a twin-turbo -6) with the immediacy of an electric motor for a combined 6 1 horsepower and 31 pound-feet of tor ue. As one might expect with those metrics, the Artura can sprint from zero to 60 in three seconds at and run up to a top speed of 20 miles per hour.
McLaren’s claim to fame always has been lightness, and the Artura glides gracefully into that group with a 3,000-pound dry weight. With a lighter and stifer aluminum frame than its predecessors and a carbon-fber tub comprised of some 00 pieces, the Artura also features an entirely new electrical ethernetbased architecture that weighs less and provides far quicker data transmission rates than were enjoyed by previous models. The lightness and efcient electrical transfer also allow for an electricity fuel-efciency rating of 3 mpg-e — even if the Artura runs in all-electric mode on a racetrack, there is no loss of performance. No wonder McLaren boasts that the Artura has 0 of the power available to the driver within two-tenths of a second! The Artura also provides an 80 battery charge in only 2. hours.
McLaren’s new eight-speed transmission is more compact than ever, which allows the Artura to have a shorter wheelbase, thereby increasing the car’s agility. The transmission size is helped by the fact that there is no reverse gear — the Artura utilizes the electric motor for backing up.
The design is fresh but still true to the McLaren DNA. The “S” swoosh of the headlights, the high dual exhausts above the bumper, the ground efects
visible from the rear, and, of course, the scream of the engine at high rev all tell the world that there’s a McLaren in their midst.
While experiencing an Artura at standstill is a joy, driving an Artura takes the pleasure to a much higher level. The car sits low, so entrance and egress require the right step-and-bend-and-slide that I mastered pretty quickly; of course, I have driven most of the McLarens, so I really felt at home right away. (I measure the ability to enter a supercar using the calculation of the size of the door opening times the driver’s age, agility, girth, and practice, divided by the pride of getting in (and out) in front of other people.) The controls fall easily to hand, and all the important switches, buttons, and levers are where one would expect. And leave it to McLaren to have a two-way paddle shifter, which allows the driver to pull back on the left paddle to downshift or push forward on the right lever to accomplish the same. Upshifts work with the same alternatives; pull back on the right or push forward with the left. That choice comes in handy when, for example, you’re about to reach for your mocha frappa cuppa on your morning commute.
Everywhere I went with the Artura, it drew a crowd. While perhaps not as radical a design as some of its stablemates (I’m looking at you, Senna and Speedtail), it’s stunning in person, and the wild colors that McLaren makes available help with that sizzle and ash. “Mine” was a beautiful Paris Blue, a stunning medium color that looked great with the black wheels and yellow brake calipers. The black interior with red piping was a perfect complement to the looks. Onlookers’ smiles grew as I fred up the car, as the exhaust is loud but not harsh, which allowed the crowd to appreciate the sound without needing to cover their ears.
To paraphrase Will Rogers, I’ve never met a McLaren that I didn’t like. McLaren, long a well-known race car brand that had produced one of the fastest production cars ever (the F1, constructed from 1993 to 1998), seriously entered the production road-car world with the MP4-12C in 200 . In the years since, their Supercar, GT, and Ultimate series of cars have gotten better and better. The Artura is a testament to that achievement and proves that McLaren can segue into the gas/electric world with all of the high-tech wizardry and driving enjoyment for which the company has been known since the beginning.
Ferrari 812 GTS
A superfast spider.
BY TIM LAPPENRUMOR HAS IT THAT SPORTS CARS WITH CONVERTIBLE TOPS ARE CALLED “spiders” (or “spyders”) because the eight wooden stays that held open the fabric top on historic convertibles seemed to resemble the eight legs on an arachnid. Amazingly, that moniker has stuck around for decades, even when an octopede insect is hardly the image that marketing suits want to have pop up when one thinks of a svelte grand touring car — they would prefer that the car generate romantic notions of carving the roads along the Stelvio Pass or cruising the Amalf Coast on the way to an epic rendezvous.
The latter option always comes to mind when I am behind the wheel of a Ferrari, one where the more cylinders, the better. And the gorgeous Ferrari 812 GTS (for “gran turismo spider”) does not disappoint in the slightest. (Fans of the Ferrari 812 Superfast will be right at home in this iteration, as the two models are mechanically identical. And long-term fans of Ferrari will note that there is no “i,” which once was used to denote “injection,” following the “GTS”; virtually no car these days has carburetion, so it would be as super uous as announcing “power steering and brakes.”)
Now, I am a fan of electrifcation of autos as much as the next guy. I mean, who doesn’t like instantaneous torque, for gosh sake? But the song of a fnely tuned -12 is both unmistakable and a siren’s call to those of us who long ago were baptized in the aural delight of a large-displacement, dozen-
cylinder Italian rolling opera. To partially explain my sound bias, I did buy records earlier in my life where, at a mere 33 rpms, I could hear the race cars at Sebring or the footsteps followed by engine cranks and fres at Le Mans, my mind racing with visions of race cars exploding into action.
With that background in mind, is it any wonder that the 812 was love at frst sound for me? Long gone are the “rer rer rer rer” sounds of the engine cranking before fnally starting. The 812 is one of the new breed — a slight, short starter motor sound and we have ignition! I love the smell of petrol in the morning, but the sound of the 789-horsepower engine coming to life (the sound of “the most powerful production spider on the market,” says Ferrari) is worth the price of admission all by itself. But wait, there’s more!
Again, it’s probably due to my early-childhood imprint, but the look of a long-hood, bobbed-tail GT two-seater does spark my heart. “Mine” for the week was in Blu Ahrabian, a beautiful deep blue that looked at once menacing and elegant. It was a great contrast to the Bordeaux leather interior and Nero black carpets. Even after just a quick look at the specs (about 6.5 liters, almost 530 pound-feet of torque, close to 800 ponies, and a sub-three-second blast to 60 miles per hour), I knew before driving it that this gorgeous car was writing checks that the mechanicals easily could cash! Spirited driving that afternoon proved the point.
But unlike some supercars, especially those of yesteryear, the 812 GTS is easy to live with. The convenience of a power-operated hardtop, for example, is great. With just a touch of a control, the top lowers in seconds and can even be put up or taken down at speeds up to about 30 miles per hour. Of course, it does impact the space in the trunk, but it’s a worthy trade-of. I am a top-down kind of guy, especially when that driving mode enhances the ability to listen to the melodic 12-pipe front organ, but it can rain in Los Angeles (not often), so it’s nice not to have to run home to get the hardtop hanging from the ceiling of the garage or even stop by the roadside to unsnap the tonneau cover to get access to the folded top.
Contrary to popular belief (“popular” in that there are daily postings to sites featuring wrecked exotics), having the money to buy an exotic car does not immediately qualify the owner as a capable driver of an exotic car. Ferrari apparently thought about that when designing some of the driving nannies that exist on the 812, such as:
Ferrari Peak Performance, which gives the driver feedback via steeringwheel torque to advise that the 812 is nearing the limit of grip.
(Apparently, the idea of a disembodied voice yelling “Watch out!” loudly through the car’s sound system was voted down.)
Ferrari Power Oversteer, which again provides feedback via steering-wheel torque that the power being applied while exiting a corner is leading to the loss of the rear wheels’ ability to be at one with the road. (Also, see above “Watch out!” note.)
Driving the 812 was a sheer delight. The looks, the sounds, the comfort, and the overall sensations were terrifc, and I enjoyed my time with this Maranello masterpiece immensely. With a zero-to-60 run taking under three seconds and a top speed of over 211 miles per hour, it’s clearly a stormer. But it’s undoubtedly equally at home at the Oscars valet or the front drive at the opera. With a base price of about $425,000, “nicely equipped” will be well into the “5s,” and if you have a heavy pen and a fat wallet, you likely can see the “6s.” Mine was “very nicely equipped,” with well over $100,000 in options, such as special paint, carbon-fber bits here and there (engine covers, wheel cups, sill covers, flter boxes, etc.), front suspension lifter, passenger display, and more (a lot more). However you decide to outft your errari 812 TS, I am very confdent that you will be thrilled with the result for many years to come.
