Treepod Dining; The Most Unique Dining Experience - - Launched by Soneva Kiri of Six Senses in Thai Jungle

Designer Louis Thompson must be given all the credit for creating the most unique dining experience. I am talking about the Treepod dining. It has been launched by Soneva Kiri of Six Senses and it is definitely the most spectacular way to enjoy a meal in the canopy of the Thai jungle. You can really enjoy the jungle while having a meal. Guests board a ‘bird’s nest’ at ground level, fasten their seatbelts and are hoisted 16 feet into native, massang trees.

Even conceiving this idea seems to be a bit wild but actually executing it needs a lot of conviction and self belief. The Treepod can seat for up to four diners and the waiter gets to and fro via a zip line. Since you are right in the middle of a jungle the menu also has a jugle theme like Canapés in the Canopy, Forager’s Basket, Woodland Offerings and such like.

The best part of this eco friendly initiative is that the whole paraphernalia has been built without any bolts or attachments into the actual trees. From design to final realization took two years but the effort has been worth it as the guests are not simply appreciating it but thoroughly enjoying it.

Romain Jerome Titanic-DNA Tourbillon Steampunk (RJ Steampunk) - - Limited Edition Luxury Watch With Only 2012 Pieces

Romain Jerome, the luxury watchmaker has done it again. Their limited edition Romain Jerome Titanic-DNA Tourbillon Steampunk A la Grande was a grand success. They have just unveiled a follow up creation the RJ Steampunk. The new creations powerful design comes through polished steel paws, pistons and large Roman numerals. There are some differences in style from the Titanic watch but the basic difference this time is that RJ Steampunk uses a movement without a tourbillon.

The case of the Steampunk is large. The case is 50mm wide and the bezel is oxidized metal. The mechanism that looks very complicated and elaborate is held in place by four screwed-down pistons, which symbolize the RJ’s signature “X” motif. The screws go deep into the dial. The screws have been made so prominent and visible because they resemble steam engine pistons.

Romain Jerome is keeping the mechanisms simple and stressing more on design. The RJ Steampunk is basically a variation on the Titanic theme but has been very well executed. The final pricing for the new watch has not been declared but it should be lower than the Titanic due to the absence of a tourbillion. Only 2,012 pieces of RJ Stempunk will go into production.

Early 17th Century Pocket Watch in Good Condition - - Available on the James List for About $78,000

A 17th century pocket watch made in France has become available on the James List. For a watch made in1625 it is in surprisingly good condition. This is a watch made before the advent of the balance spring which made the watches more accurate. This watch could almost tell you the history of watch making. It was made at a time when watches had only one hour hand.

The watches made at the time were not very reliable as timing instruments but more an item of class and esteem for the very rich. The emphasis, at that time was on decoration and craftsmanship and not on accuracy. This particular piece as you can see in the photograph has some very elaborate ornamental work on the dial. This particular piece also has some sort of an alarm and the hour striking system.

This beautiful example of witch making from the early 17th century is signed by Josias Jolly, who was a watch maker in Paris. Though inaccurate the watch has a complex mechanism. It uses a small chain connected to the main spring barrel. It is rare to get a watch from that period in good condition. It is available on the James List for about $78,000.
