SARUQ AL-HADID MUSEUM 27 July – 31 December 2019 The story of Dubai is set to unfold in real time with the opening of Saruq Al Hadid, a newly opened museum in Dubai's historical district, which displays a stunning range of artefacts unearthed from a new archeological dig at Saruq Al Hadid. The archeological site was discovered by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum while flying his helicopter, as he noticed that some dunes were a darker colour than others. This newly-opened museum takes you through the mysterious route of archaeological discoveries and presents exciting treasures of long ago. You can take a leisurely walk among relics, dramatic displays of gold, bronze and iron and an impressive haul of over 900 objects discovered from the site. Keep your eye out for the stunning swords, enchanting arrow heads exhibitions and
interactive video exhibitions. Young visitors can get hands-on with culture and reconstruct a pot, assemble an animal skeleton, or even help the experts solve a mystery. Explore the theories that surround the ancient trade maps at one of Dubai's most fascinating museums. Hopefully the mysteries will unfold with the excavation of the site - how did the civilisation end? When was the last time they were in fact there? And why are there no human remains amidst the iron relics like swords, rings and arrowheads? Who knows, you may have all the answers... hp://www.saruqalhadid.ae/

With additional highlights that allow conďŹ guration of vehicle systems to make it desirous of a race track, the Mercedes-AMG GT S is an outstanding expression of the essence of AMG. The new Mercedes‑AMG GT S embodies the sensual purity of sportiness and emotion. The two-seater is characterized by hallmark rearwheel-drive proportions. The V8 biturbo front mid-engine ensures optimum weight distribution, which forms the basis for superb driving dynamics.

The interior design embodies maximum emotion and sensual purity. Radically low, sporty proportions create a unique sense of spaciousness. Clearly drawn components and their authentic materials underscore the dynamic character and create instant excitement: Anyone opening the door discovers an exciting interplay between the deep, sloping dashboard and a dominant, arched high center console, a design which evokes emotions and impresses with its perfection.

The already outstanding performance of the Mercedes-AMG GT is boosted still further in the Mercedes-AMG GT S. The AMG 4.0-Liter V8 Biturbo engine with 375 kW (510 hp) and 650 Nm delivers a further 35 kW (48 hp) of output and additional 50 Nm of torque. The AMG RIDE CONTROL sports suspension is adjustable in three stages – from comfortable through to sportily taut. Further highlights include the electronic AMG rear axle differential lock with variable locking effect and the additional "RACE" transmission mode, which configures the vehicle systems to make them suitable for circuit racing.
LUXURY CARS
The combination of aluminum spaceframe, V8 biturbo engine with dry sump lubrication, sevenspeed dual clutch transmission in transaxle configuration at the rear axle, locking differential, sports suspension with aluminum doublewishbone suspension and the low kerb weight of 1570 kilograms delivers racetrack performance. The concept with front mid-engine and transmission in transaxle configuration makes for a beneficial weight distribution of 47 to 53 percent between the front and rear axle. In conjunction with the vehicle's low center of gravity this translates into extremely agile handling and permits high cornering speeds.
With a favorable power-to-weight ratio of 3.0 kilograms per hp, the Mercedes‑AMG GT S selfconfidently lines up alongside the very best in its segment. The sports car also sets a new benchmark figure for fuel economy: fuel consumption of 9.6 – 9.4 liters per 100 kilometers (NEDC combined) constitutes a considerable increase in efficiency.

Restaurants, retail outlets and function facilities are mostly located on the ground floor of the hotel wing, with a destination bar and restaurant at high level to take full advantage of the dual aspect views. If W Amsterdam and W Milan are examples of what W Hotels is up to in the heart of historic European cities, here is one that exemplifies the other end of the brand’s spectrum: W Dubai – The Palm.
First announced in 2006, the project was put on hold like so many others when the 2008 financial crisis hit – and hit hard it did in Dubai. Seven years later, that seems to be a distant memory, with mindboggling levels of construction everywhere around town. Shaped almost like a W, the hotel will have 283 rooms and suites on the western crescent of Palm Jumeirah, while a residential component will include a range of luxury apartments.
MARcH 2017
Out of the 283 rooms, 102 will be suites, including five WOW suites and two Extreme WOW suites. Expect a W lounge, WET pool, SWEAT gym, AWAY spa, and eight restaurants and bars too. www.starwoodhotels.com/whotels/directo ry/newhotels/all/detail.html? language=en_US

The exclusive Crystal writing instrument collection was born of the creative partnership between two legendary manufacturers, Geneva-based Caran d’Ache and the French master of fine crystal, Lalique. The unique style of this limited edition creation juxtaposes the refinement of Art Deco with the iconic Coutard motif, a succession of drops of water springing forth in a fine cascade, created by René Lalique in 1935 for the Fontaine de Coutard. A symbol of life and rebirth, in tribute to the drop of ink with which writing begins, the finely embossed Coutard motif adorns the white or black ceramic body of the pen. In its supremely refined version issued in an 18-piece limited edition, the theme is expressed with diamonds sprinkled across white gold. hp://www.carandache.com/ editions-limitees/crystaledition-limitee

LAMBORGHINI AVENTADOR LP 700-4
A Fearless Look A key aspect of our design philosophy demands that every Lamborghini must be instantly recognizable as such. The Aventador LP 700-4, with its uncompromisingly crisp contours, is the essence of our brand, poured into an extreme, aweinspiring look – eternally different, unmistakably Lamborghini.

thinking. Whether in terms of design, like the iconic scissor doors, or in terms of technology such as the V12 engine and carbon-fiber technology, the Aventador LP 700-4 represents a whole new level of performance, sets new benchmarks in the super sports car segment, and provides a glimpse into the future. It’s a car that’s already achieved legendary status. A Timeless Powerhouse Handcraed in Sant’Agata Bolognese, naturally balanced and installed in a central, longitudinal position, they relentlessly power the Lamborghini legend and represent the driving force behind our cars and our brand.
LUXURY CARS
DUBAI’S FAVOURITE SUPERCAR THE AVENTADOR LP 700-4
REPRESENTS A WHOLE NEW LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE AND SETS NEW BENCHMARKS IN THE SUPER SPORTS CAR SEGMENT
Driving Dynamics During the development of a super sports car, it is crucial to always bear in mind its driving dynamics. No maer how powerful the engine is or how sophisticated the aerodynamics are: there is no driving fun if the car understeers in corners or loses its rear when accelerating. For this reason, the driving dynamics are so important to us. Our engineers make sure all suspension and drivetrain components are perfectly matched to each other. Thus, the Lamborghini Aventador is well controllable in all kinds of situations and enables a sportive driving style.
Interior The stunning design concept of the Lamborghini Aventador is continued in the interior, with the citation of hexagons and trapezia that can be found on the bodywork. You can also customize the interior to fit your taste – from the colour of the stitching on the seats to the leather. Take a seat behind the steering wheel, close the legendary scissor door and you will find yourself seated in the middle of the Aventador's control centre. www.lamborghini.com/en/models/aventador-lp700-4/overview/#!slide/2

The iconic dhow-shaped building of Dubai Opera is a masterpiece of contemporary design, and a stylish tribute to Dubai’s maritime history. The building’s exquisite design, by architect Janus Rostock, gives the exceptional ability to transform into three modes; from a theatre into a concert hall, and into a ‘flat floor’ mode becoming a banquet or event hall. This seamless flexibility enables Dubai Opera to host a wide variety of performances and events including theatre,opera, ballet, orchestras, concerts, fashion shows, live entertainment, conferences, galleries and art exhibitions.

In Theatre mode, the space is suitable for largescale drama productions, musicals, ballets, lectures, and conferences, seating up to 2,000 people, depending on configuration. When transformed into a concert hall, a series of towers and reflectors on stage and overhead are designed to create an acoustic shell around the orchestra, enabling an impeccable acoustic environment for a perfect sound quality. The building’s unique architecture allows to also host a variety of events such as weddings, trade shows, art galleries and exhibitions, receptions and parties, using its “flat floor” mode.

The aention to detail can be seen in the choice of placing appliqués on the edge of the openworked spaces on the dial to highlight their beautiful edges. The tonneau-shaped mechanical movement with a 30-second tourbillon and seven-day power reserve demonstrates the expertise of the Manufacture and its pursuit of producing sophisticated timepieces with a refined design. The flaened oval-shaped white gold case features a dial adorned with Côtes de Genève the very same Côtes de Genève that decorate classically designed movements. This motif gives the face of the watch aesthetic tension while signalling its allegiance to traditional watchmaking. The dial is openworked around the tourbillon so that the magnificent seings of the regulating organ can be admired. Similarly, the dial is perforated to reveal part of the watch's gears and serve as a reminder of the film "Modern Times". The Ovale Tourbillon 1 is also available as a version that exudes even more sophistication. The oval case, this time made from rose gold, is paired with a shiny black dial. The dial is made from onyx, a stone used to make seals in Antiquity. The mysterious seduction of onyx is ideally suited to this model.

CAMBIAN BOVET BY PININFARINA COLLECTION
Combining a sporty design with prestige mechanics, the Chronograph CAMBIANO offers a level of technical and aesthetic refinement that immediately places this collection in a class of its own.

WHILE THE AFFINITY between the Chronograph CAMBIANO and the Tourbillon OTTANTA® is clear, this new timepiece is the result of in-depth development adapted to its functions and specific features.

world luxury | DAILY | Issue 38 |
Following the example of its predecessor, from which it inherits certain aesthetic codes such as the oscillating weight and screws, the Chronograph CAMBIANO presents a varied topography united by a succession of curves and sharp angles. Architecturally rich, it is structured with contrasting finishes and surface treatments selected with meticulous aention to detail. The superbly proportioned AMADEO convertible case allows the timepiece to be used as a wristwatch, miniature clock, pocket watch or sports counter. The steel case-band and caseback have a circular satin finish, while the bezel, support, bow and crown are in ball-milled steel with black DLC coating. The push-pieces of the chronograph, shaped to resemble an accelerator, are arranged symmetrically on either side of the bow at 11 o’clock and 1 o’clock in keeping with BOVET’s customary aesthetic codes. This positioning ensures perfect ergonomics regardless of which case configuration is used. For optimal functionality and perfect clarity, chronograph and time indications are displayed separately. Chronograph functions are therefore arranged on the dial’s horizontal axis, with the seconds hand naturally in the centre, the minute counter at 9 o’clock and the hour counter at 3 o’clock. Time indications meanwhile occupy the dial’s vertical axis, with hours and minutes in the centre, seconds at 6 o’clock and large date at 12 o’clock. In addition, to eliminate any possible confusion, the chronograph hands are blued, while time indications are shown by rhodium-plated hands. Perfectly balanced, the small seconds-hand with its stylised design is evocative of the motor car and the world of watchmaking. BOVET crasmen employed all their expertise and experience to accurately convey the intent of the Italian designers and create a dial of spellbinding technical complexity. The finished article, comprising 35 components on five levels, meets all design criteria to the leer (design, volumes, legibility and sportiness).
| 172 |
The Chronograph CAMBIANO has been rigorously tested to ensure absolute reliability regardless of the environment in which it is used. Its combination of technical and aesthetic refinement places the Chronograph CAMBIANO at once in the “specialist” and “versatile” categories of prestige sports timepieces.

STELLA McCARTN Cuba was the inspiration for Stella McCartney‘s optimistic, vivacious and energetic collection. It came in stark contrast with New York’s grey skies on the day, but not so much with the garden party she threw to present the collection, where guests were entertained with stilt-walkers, a large supply of rum drinks, and models twirling around to the danzón in the most beautiful canary yellow and peach ankle-grazing flowy trapeze dresses. Aside from the gowns that will most likely be in everyone’s wish list, there were reinvented shirt dresses with sculptural tailoring–ideal for a summer in the city–as well as lile black and white shirt dresses embroidered in fresh floral prints, and ensembles with geometric cut-outs that provide the perfect mix between modernity and femininity. It’s a collection that can be adapted to every modern woman’s life, whether it be exploring the Greek islands, or jet-seing around the world’s fashion capitals.

OMEG
BLACK BLACK DARK SIDE OF THE MOON It was the adventures and the accomplishments of the Apollo 8 astronauts that inspired the allblack, ceramic Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon, but it is the mystique of the Earth’s nightlight and its ever-changing yet constant presence that has spurred the creation of the Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon "Black Black". This 44.25 mm model has a polished and brushed black ceramic casebody, a ma black ceramic dial and a black ceramic clasp on a black coated nylon fabric strap.
| 224 |
Giving this model its nickname are its brushed blackened Moonwatch-style hands and blackened applied indexes – all of which are coated with black Super-LumiNova. The familiar sub-dials at 3 and 9 o’clock are also ma black and the black ceramic bezel has a black lacquered tachymeter scale. At its heart is the OMEGA Co-Axial calibre 9300.

INSPIRED BY A LEGACY This timepiece is the product of groundbreaking technologies: it is craed from a single block of black zirconium oxide ceramic. The OMEGA Speedmaster “Dark Side of the Moon” redefines the iconic design of the Moonwatch and its name evokes the mysteriousness and allure of space. ZIRCONIUM OXIDE MATERIAL The black zirconium oxide ceramic dial is complemented by a matching ceramic 44.25 mm case with a brushed and polished ceramic casebody. The two polished ceramic chronograph control pushers on the case function totally independently - accordingly, there is no risk to the chronograph mechanism as a result of inadvertent manipulation. EXTENDING THE CERAMIC SPEEDMASTER FAMILY Rhapsodized, romanticized and analysed, the Moon has always enchanted us. It was the adventures and the accomplishments of the Apollo 8 astronauts that inspired the all-black, ceramic Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon, but it is the mystique of the Earth’s nightlight that has spurred the creation of four new OMEGA timepieces that are now part of the collection. hps://www.omegawatches.com/watches/spee dmaster/moonwatch/omega-co-axialchronograph/31192445101005/

EXPO 202 20 OCTOBER 2020
Dubai’s Expo will be a festival of human ingenuity. The engines of growth are no longer steampowered. Instead, collaboration and partnership have taken its place, becoming the driving force behind new developments. Expo will showcase and explore what is possible when new ideas and people connect. • Between its opening day on 20 October 2020, and its closing date on 10 April 2021, we expect Expo to be visited 25 million times. • 70% of all visitors are expected to come from outside the UAE - the largest proportion of international visitors in Expo history.
| 228 |
• We aim to create and deliver an inclusive and global Expo with over 200 participants that include nations, multilateral organisations, corporates and educational institutions. • Expo 2020 also has an ambitious volunteer programme, which aims to include more than 30,000 volunteers from a wide range of ages, nationalities, cultures and backgrounds. • The Expo site covers a total of 4.38 square kilometres, including a 200 hectare gated area. It is located within the Dubai South District, adjacent to Al Maktoum International Airport.

THE JOURNEY TO 2020 HAS STARTED We’re inviting people from diverse backgrounds and perspectives, including national governments, businesses, academia, civil society and citizens of the world, particularly the youth to be a part of this shared vision and the lasting legacy it will help us to create.
AN EXPO FOR EVERYONE FOR ALL TIME The 2020 World Expo will not be confined to a physical site, or to a six month period of time. It begins now, wherever people are coming together to think about what could be. Expo will provide a platform to foster creativity, innovation and partnership globally. We aim to work with others to accelerate the development of cuing-edge solutions, and scale them up so that they have a reach and value that stretches far beyond the event itself.

THE UAE: HOST NATION FOR EXPO 2020 Expo 2020 will be the first World Expo to take place in the MEASA (Middle East, Africa and South Asia) region. The UAE demonstrates the power of connections. The nation is home to two major hub airports, Dubai and Abu Dhabi, and also two leading airlines. It also has nine major sea ports, including Jebel Ali, the ninth largest container port in the world. The UAE is also a nation built on the power of connections, between seven emirates, and people of 200 different nationalities who meet, work together and form friendships every day. Because of this, the nation is convinced of the ability of Expo 2020 to spark collaboration and partnership amongst the international community to seek collective solutions for a beer future. The UAE has an established track record of successful participation in World Expos. The national pavilion from the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai is now a permanent fixture on the skyline of Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi. We are excited to be hosting the 2020 World Expo, which will welcome 25 million visitors from around the world.

CONNECTING MINDS CREATING THE FUTURE Expo 2020 Dubai’s theme is ‘Connecting Minds, Creating the Future’. It recognises that generating sustainable solutions to global problems demands collaboration across cultures, nations and regions. It is a reflection of the modern world: connected as never before, and changing with great speed. Today, the world’s biggest accommodation provider owns no hotels. The largest soware providers do not write the apps they sell. The number one retailer stocks no products and the most popular media organisation in the world creates no content. These companies have each recognised the value of sharing and collaboration, made possible by new technology. They empower people to say and do things differently; to connect with others, and to create something new. This what Expo 2020, its participants and visitors will explore. How, by connecting, collaborating and forming new partnerships, can we develop ideas and innovate in order to create a beer future?

OPPORTUNITY, MOBILITY AND SUSTAINABILITY The nations and organisations that take part in Expo, and the millions who visit, will explore the power of connections across the spheres of Opportunity, Mobility and Sustainability - our three subthemes. Expo will focus on three aspects of Opportunity: developing human capital to stimulate progress; the necessity of ďŹ nancial capital as a resource to support growth; and partnerships as a primary driver of innovation and employment.
| 238 |
We will explore a number of facets of Mobility: empowering individuals through physical mobility; facilitating access and distribution of goods and resources; and enhancing virtual connectivity through information technology. And our exhibits will examine the role of natural and built habitats in ensuring human well-being and community resilience; and the need to use resources without compromising the ability of the planet to sustain future generations, as part of the Sustainability sub theme. www.expo2020dubai.ae
