Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Memovox International Colette Edition

One day I would like to visit Colette. This is a store located at 213 rue Saint-Honoré in Paris. Colette is a famous stockist of all things “hip, unique, and hard to find“. As a watch enthusiast, I do so very much appreciate that very special wristwatches often find their way in to the display cases at Colette. Most recently it seems that Jaeger-LeCoultre has created a special Master Memovox International for the Parisian concept store. It is part of a project by Thomas Erber and is named Cabinet de curiosité — a random collection of fine oddities. Special about this watch vs. its “standard” brother is the light blue “Colette” notation on the dial and the matching accented stitching on the strap. Only 3 pieces will be made!
Robot of the Day: HRP-4 Unveiled

Kawada industries unveiled their next generation of humanoid robots. The HRP-4 is leaner (much leaner), more flexible, and faster than its predecessors. The new robot is 1.5m (~5 feet) tall and will sell for 300 000 $. Although this might seem expensive for the average robot enthusiast, it is actually a good price for universities and researchers. This is a step forward for creating a robot worker that will help the Japanese with their ageing society and low birth-rate problems.
