P U BLI S H E R ’S N O TE Stay Inspired Earlier this year, I saw a video, on facebook, that moved me.
Sam dHand
Publisher & Editor-in-Chief Dream Homes of Canada LUXURY LIVING LUXE MEDIA NETWORK
It was a short-film of a boy, maybe ten years old, selling small flags in the streets and intersections of India. It was independence day and the flags went easily for 10 rupees each. On his way home at the end of the day, he was mugged by a street thug who thrashed him and took all his money, which was in fact ‘earnings’ he was to turn over to his father upon reaching his ‘home’ in the shanties of the city. Finding him empty handed, his father gave him another thrashing, and turned him away from home with a directive never to return even for food or clothing if he didn’t get the money. It was late in the night, and as he sat on the curb beneath a tree crying, he noticed that the flags he had sold during the day had been tossed out and were now littering the sides of the streets. He had an idea - he would collect the flags and sell them all over again in the morning traffic, and win his place once again in his home with his family. But, it was not independence day anymore, and people’s spark of dutiful patriotism was nowhere to be found. No flags were sold that day - not even for one rupee each. The story ends with that child sitting by the curb-side bewildered, hungry and without hope. It was a compelling story, which if it didn’t compromise your composure and bring tears to your eyes, you had to be block of wood. I don’t think I’m going out on a limb when I say that most people who saw that video would have felt a visceral desire to help in some way. But, what do you do? And, where does one begin?
Street Kid Selling India Flags.

It occurred to me that giving and making a difference in someone’s life is not easy. Oh, it’s easy, but not as easy as it could be and should be. Take email or texting or facebook for example. These are amazing highly efficient and optimized systems in which we’ve removed all possible barriers. It takes seconds to create a message or photo or video and send it to someone at the other end of the world instantly. What’s more, almost all of us have these brilliant little inventions, called smartphones, sitting in our pockets that enable us to do exactly that at any time we chose, as many times as we wish, it takes mere seconds, and it’s reach is global! When I saw the the story of that child, I found myself wishing for that kind of simplified and efficient system for giving - I found myself wishing that there was an app for that. Imagine what a difference we could make!

drivers have had about SUVs. The Model X makes the the gas-guzzling SUV a thing of the past with a 90 kWh battery that can go more than 400 kms on a single charge. The battery fuels two electric 259-horsepower motors that give the Model X a top speed of 250 km/hr and bring the car up to 100 km/hr in just 4.8 seconds. If that’s not fast enough for you, the Model X also offers a Ludicrous Speed upgrade that bumps the back motor’s power up to 503 horsepower in the P90D, and reduces the 0-100 km/hr time to just 3.2 seconds.

OMEGA’S ICONIC _
SEAMASTER 300
SPECTRE
_ Bond. James Bond. These legendary lines have been a mainstay of popular culture ever since the mysteriously noble spy first made his on-screen debut in 1962 – and the Bond films are as famed today as ever. With Hollywood’s leading man Daniel Craig poised to star as Agent 007 in SPECTRE, the 24th film in the Bond adventures lineup, excitement is brewing. And as everyone knows, no secret service agent is complete without a knockout watch. This summer, Craig arrived at the alpine village of Villeret, Switzerland, to pay a visit to the world-renowned OMEGA and its watchmaking factory, and was given a guided tour and exclusive access to the assembly line. The reason? OMEGA’s new Seamaster 300 “SPECTRE” Limited Edition – a watch that is set to shine on Craig’s wrist in the muchawaited premiere.

41
OMEGA boasts a close relationship with the Bond series, with the classic, nautically styled Seamaster starring as James Bond’s watch since GoldenEye in 1995. Now, for the first time ever, the agent’s essential accessory can be worn by real-life Bonds and those who aspire, available for purchase as an exclusive limited edition. Showcasing a bi-directional, rotating diving bezel in black ceramic, a LiquidMetal® 12 hour scale, and “lollilop” central seconds hands, the understatedly sleek watch is powered by OMEGA’s exclusive Master Co-Axial calibre 8400 movement. The sharp masculine look is finished with a five-stripe black and grey NATO strap, with the 007 gun logo engraved on the bracelet holder. A unique serial number as well as the film logo is engraved on the back of each piece. “I think what was so impressive was the fact that these watches are made from the ground up,” says Craig, an avid watch collector himself who, together with Swatch Group CEO Nick Hayek and OMEGA’s President Stephen Urquhart, got the chance to see what goes into putting together an OMEGA watch as well as observe production of the Seamaster itself. “You start with nothing, and then there’s suddenly a working watch. That’s the beauty of it. To see the engineering that goes into it and the legacy that goes into it, that’s what fascinated me.” The Seamaster 300 “SPECTRE” will be limited to only 7,007 pieces, available from selected boutiques.

PERFECTION & BEAUTY _ BAUME & MERCIER’S _ CLASSIC CHRONOGRAPHIC COLLECTION
RE-INVENTED
I
It was 1830, in the Les Bois village at the heart of the Swiss Jura mountains, when two brothers set out on a path of craft, quality, and tradition.
The Baume brothers, Louis-Victor and Célestin, began creating fine timepieces under their uncompromising motto, “Accept only perfection; only manufacture watches of the highest quality.” In 1918, Baume & Mercier was founded in Geneva by William Baume and Paul Mercier. Respecting the Baume brothers’ original values, the firm excelled in complex technological innovations employing the centuriesold method of ‘etablissage,’ a division of labor among multiple craftsmen. Over the Baume & Mercier Promesse
38
39
years, the maison has been repeatedly recognized for its outstanding quality, collecting numerous awards and trophies at international exhibitions and timekeeping competitions, including the famous “Poinçon de Genève.” Having built a legacy based as much on sentiment as quality, Baume & Mercier emphasizes the significance of milestones in our lives, conveyed in its Celebrations campaign and “Life is about moments” signature. Capturing these moments in time, each Baume & Mercier collection celebrates an occasion and the spirit of giftgiving, a tradition that got its start in 1869 when Louis-Victor Baume gifted a gold pocket watch to his daughter. Boasting a dynamic history of keeping in close step with times of world change, the brand stood alongside the women’s emancipation movement during the ‘Roaring Twenties,’ and had explored the faces of femininity in its women’s collections since the 1940s. Today, Baume & Mercer collections are as varied as they are stylish, but all share inspiration – each taking cue from a historic model selected from the Baume & Mercer museum, interpreted anew by their design studio. A classic chronograph and geometric Art Deco shapes from the 1940s set the tone for the Capeland and Hampton collections, while the 1950s inspired the timeless Linea model and the Clifton Collection. The latter brings back an era of traditional masculinity and artisanship with its flagship Clifton 1830 model, made using an old-fashioned stamping press to echo a museum reference piece.

SPECTACULAR
_
‘ART OF FUSION’ THEMED WATCHES
I
It began over three decades ago, when a Swiss watchmaker broke ground by fusing two very different materials into one remarkable timepiece. The first to combine gold and natural rubber, Hublot (French for a boat’s porthole and the inspiration for the watch’s case)
created a watch so unique, it drew the attention of royalty. Dubbed the “Art of Fusion”, the brand’s progressive approach has since rapidly propelled it to the forefront of modern watchmaking.

Big Bang Unico Bi-Retrogade Chrono Green-and-Yellow Dial
Honoring Host Country Brazil
40
Following acquisition by the LVMH group in 2008, Hublot has plunged ahead with four collections, each a testament to its distinctive vision. The melding of the classic and the cuttingedge shined in complicated movements (including the World record-breaking MP-05 LaFerrari with 50 days of power reserve), and unconventional material combinations such as zirconium, tantalum, and ceramics. The brilliance of osmium, the rarest metal on the planet, was showcased in the Classic Fusion Tourbillon Firmament and the wonder of stained glass captured in the Vitrail – both premiered at Baselworld 2014 – while the Big Bang Ferrari Hong Kong saw the introduction of a bright-red ceramic, a world first. The firm’s pursuit of innovation went as far as building an in-house foundry to produce its exclusive, scratch-resistant 18-carat ‘Magic Gold’. Hublot’s “Art of Fusion” philosophy extends beyond the physical craft, to the fusion of brands, ideas, and partnerships that the company meticulously cultivates. A prime example is the watchmaker’s long-standing relationship with Ferrari. In 2013, Hublot and Ferrari teamed up to merge the “DNA” of both brands into the sleek MP-05 LaFerrari – the watch’s case and movement inspired by the shape of the car and engine, and rarer than the car itself with only 50 models released. Hublot figures prominently in the sports world, and boasts the status of the first luxury brand to feature in soccer. It became the “Official Watch” and “Official Timekeeper” for FIFA and the 2014 World Cup, presenting the Big Bang Unico Bi-Retrogade Chrono with its green-and-yellow dial honoring host country Brazil. Taking the sportsmanship concept even further is the firm’s coveted circle of ambassadors, working with such legends as Usain Bolt, fastest man in the world, Pele, Dwyane Wade, and Kobe Bryant among many. Going forward, Hublot maintains its dedication to fusing the past and future, craft and technology. “We are not breaking with the past” says Chairman Jean-Claude Biver; “On the contrary we are paying homage to it by connecting it to the future”.

ICONS & LEGENDS
I
In 2010, F1 legend and Audemars Piguet
ambassador
Michael
Schumacher posed an apparently simple question to the engineers at Audemars Piguet: would it be possible to create a mechanical wrist watch designed specifically for use in motorsport which would make it possible to measure and record an extended series of consecutive lap times? It was a horological challenge that had never before been met in a mechanical watch, and one that was inspired by motor racing’s very specific requirement to be able to time and compare multiple, consecutive laps - a task which has traditionally been carried out using a bank of two or more stop watches arranged in series. Now, after almost five years of development, Audemars Piguet can claim to have conquered that challenge. It is the first motorsport-specific watch to feature a complication imagined by the celebrated driver, with two angular indexing systems on a single chronograph, each with an independent memory. It is also the first time that a movement has been developed from scratch at the behest of an ambassador by Audemars Piguet – an indication of the strength of the long-standing relationship which Audemars Piguet has enjoyed with Michael Schumacher since 2010.

This third pushpiece makes it possible to simultaneously stop either of the two chronograph hands, while returning the other hand to zero and restarting it - meaning that, while the time of the most recent lap is being noted down, timing of the next lap is already underway. The watch therefore negates the need for two or more hand-held timing devices, streamlining
Finally, the timepiece can be used as a “standard” flyback chronograph with both hands running together in parallel.

In a constant pursuit of perfection blending tradition and innovation, Swiss watchmaker Blancpain continues to deliver classic, luxurious and sporty timepieces infused with artistic passion. With a rich history dating back to 1735 in the small town of Villeret, Switzerland (in
the French-speaking Bernese Jura), Blancpain is considered the world’s oldest watchmaking brand.

There’s the Fifty Fathoms (watch of choice by U.S. Navy and worn by Jacques-Yves Cousteau in his award-winning film), the Villeret collection and the ‘avant-garde’ L-evolution collection, among others. Distinguished not only by their strikingly progressive appearance, but by their respect to the art of watchmaking in their choice and combination of materials, these elegant and innovative timepieces include the Carrousel Saphir Volant Une Minute, and the Tourbillon featuring an eight-day power-reserve. The new models also celebrate and reflect Blancpain’s tie to the world of motor sports - more particularly

COLLECTION

It has been described as British chic, Swiss excellence - a blend of performance and prestige, power and style, class and boldness. Assertive adjectives for an assertive brand: the Breitling Bentley
collection of watches. These luxurious timepieces, or chronographs, carry the instantly recognizable winged B and project the kind of confidence only found on such proven prestigious ground. Borne of the elegant art of British carmaking and of traditional Swiss watchmaking, this union of two of the finest brands on the planet has produced exclusive chronographs utilizing gold, steel and titanium bodywork. The Breitling for Bentley collection blends the pursuit of perfection and beauty embodied in both the automobile manufacturer and chronograph specialist. Breitling, a privately held company based in Grenchen, Switzerland, was founded in 1884 while Bentley Motors Limited dates back to 1919 in Cricklewood, North London, and is now based in Crewe, England. The Breitling Bentley collaboration commenced in 2002 with the launch of the Continental GT, the most powerful Bentley ever built. It also marked the first time Bentley had entrusted a watchmaker with the task of designing the performance car’s technical instrumentation and onboard clock. Produced in the Breitling Chronométrie workshops, the new Bentley GMT Light Body B04 offers a precise combination of comfort, elegance, efficiency and style in a sporty titanium housing. This unique wrist sculpture features asymmetrical lugs, a black rubber strap and a knurled motif inspired Bentley radiator grilles. But it’s the ease of use juxtaposed in the complexity of construction that stands out most. When traveling the world, the wearer simply needs to rotate the inner bezel bearing the names of 24 cities in their appropriate time zones to determine the time at hand. Moving it forwards or backwards in one-hour increments automatically adjusts local time without any loss of precision. Water resistant at 100 meters, the Breitling for Bentley Barnato Racing Watches provide reliability, performance and stunning visuals. A stainless steel case with stainless steel speed bracelet, these remarkable chronographs boast luminous hands and index hour markers, and a scratch resistant sapphire crystal glass to marvel at the precision and artistry.

Switzerland, in 1865, Favre-Jacot went on to found Zenith in 1911. Today, the Swiss watch manufacture has earned international acclaim, particularly for the precision of its chronometers, holding the all-time record of 2333 chronometry prizes and part of the LVMH Group. This year, the world-renowned brand celebrates its 150th anniversary. Along with a century and a half of excellence, the date marks a history rich in spirit. The firm now takes a stand at the racetrack in partnership with Tour Auto, a move commemorated with the release of the bold El Primero Chronomaster 1969 Tour Auto Edition, limited of 500pces. Zenith takes pride in a long-standing tradition of striding alongside those who pushed physical and mental limits; names like Louis Bleriot, The Rolling Stones, and even Gandhi have all been

associated with the monumental brand over the years. Last year, Zenith found itself in an exciting new role, as official timekeeper of the Tour Auto. The famous historic car race brought Zenith into the fast-paced realm of motorsports, perfectly embodying its three founding values – authenticity, daring, and pleasure. Indeed, Zenith’s mechanical watches run in strong parallel with the race’s showcased classic cars – both individually handcrafted and meticulously maintained with the utmost attention to detail. To celebrate the event, Zenith presents a timepiece that aptly brings its remarkable legacy into the present. First released on January 10, 1969, the El Primero calibre has been the brand’s trademark model. The first integrated automatic chronograph and world’s most precise movement, it showed a frequency of 36,000 vibrations per hour for precision to the tenth of a second. Now, the historic timepiece is reinterpreted in the El Primero Chronomaster 1969 Tour Auto edition. Imbued with the racing feel, the sporty piece is decked out in blue, white, and red to evoke the colors of the French flag and features a rhodium-plated surface, and an opaline silver tachymetric scale, with 300 divisions measuring down to one fifth of a second. A slim bezel, convex sapphire crystal case, and mushroom-type push pieces polish off the memorable model’s racy look.

NEW ALL-ELECTRIC _ PORCHE MISSION E _

It’s a Porsche first and an electric car second. While the Porsche Mission E is a fully electric vehicle, it has a top-speed of more than 250 km/hr and
accelerates from 0 to 100 km/hr in just 3.5 seconds. That’s just as fast as the Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet.
85
86
The power comes from Porsche’s Permanently Excited Synchronous Machine (PSM) motor that has an system voltage of 800V. This system lets the Mission E go more than 500 kms on a single charge and charge up to 80 percent in just 15 minutes. Aside from efficiency, the PSM motor is also designed for maximum performance. There’s a motor on both the front and rear axles and the state-of-the-art battery runs through the entire length of the car, lowering the center of gravity and evenly distributing weight for optimal handling. The Mission E can be charged in conventional stations but owners can install a special base plate in their garage that allows wireless charging. The efficient design also allows the Mission E to achieve a sporty height of just 1.3 meters. Despite its lower height, the Mission E still boasts four doors and comfortably seats four passengers. With no transmission tunnel, there’s space for four individual bucketstyle racing seats that reduce the Mission E’s weight even more and gives it an even sportier feeling. The Mission E is clean all around. Aside from not emitting any exhaust, the svelte, flat-hooded car has a sleek exterior that doesn’t even have side mirrors. Instead, the Mission E has a set of cameras that project on the lower windshield corners. The dashboard also consists of five round OLED instruments that track the driver’s movements and move accordingly. Drivers can also program the instruments to their liking and activate certain features by eyesight. This driver-orientated interface is designed to be distraction free so the only thing you have to focus on is the ride. You might have to wait a while for that ride though as the Mission E is still just a concept car, but Porsche has been diving head first into the electric car market. A lot of the Mission E’s technology comes from the Porsche 919 Hybrid, Porsche’s sports-prototype racing car that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans earlier this year. Soon you can have that racetrack technology wirelessly charging in your garage.

UNMATCHED IN LUXURY & PERFORMANCE

When one thinks of a supercar, or more specifically a hypercar along the likes of Koenigsegg’s Agera RS and One 1, one may think speed, power, and revving, gasguzzling engines. What you’re not likely to conjure is the hybrid, a term associated mostly with the small, eco-friendly automobiles rolling soundlessly down urban streets. And yet what the Swedish manufacturer did in the limited-edition Regera is combine the two seemingly polarized worlds, into one powerful yet ingeniously efficient megacar.
W

94
With the brand’s founder Christian von Koenigsegg’s notorious dislike of hybrid cars, it’s not surprising that the Regera, Swedish for ‘to Reign’, reigns in defying all expectations of what a hybrid can be. A more luxurious alternative to the maker’s traditional sports automobiles, the beautiful Regera is powered by a 5.0 liter V8 internal combustion engine, using an EV plug-in feature with a Direct Drive Battery that can be charged either from the engine or a charging port. The Koenigsegg’s patent-pending Direct Drive transmission allows for pure EV mode, making for an ultraresponsive, superbly smooth drive. Almost every function, including active front and rear wings, chassis control, and lifting system, is robotized without adding extra weight thanks to compact hydraulics, and the entire body can be closed and opened simultaneously and remotely, an attentiongrabbing spectacle to observe. The interior
is as luxe as it is packed with techy comforts, from infotainment and 3G to parking sensors and remote diagnostics; and on the outside, the sleek, lightweight frame is outfitted with features such as the dramatic Dihedral Synchro Helix Doors and the Constellation DRL lights, scattered LEDs that create a constellation of stars effect. A new rear sub frame and structure enable the engine and transmission to rest on soft mounts for enhanced response and shock absorbance. Only 80 models of this striking machine will be handcrafted – a number symbolizing domination and achievement in Pythagorean Numerology. With 1500 hp and taking under 20 seconds to go from 0 to 400 kmh, Koenigsegg notes that the Regera is the most powerful and fastest accelerating production car ever made – rightfully meriting its name as royalty of the road.
