Breitling Navitimer Cosmonaute

To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Carpenter’s historic flight, Breitling is releasing the Navitimer Cosmonaute — a faithful reproduction of the watch that helped make aeronautical history. At the heart of the 43mm stainless steel case beats Breitling’s 39 jewel, COSC-certified Caliber 02 hand-wound movement, at 28,800 vibrations per hour. In addition to the chronometer itself, the watch contains two other essential pilot instruments: a circular slide rule integrated into the bi-directional rotating bezel, and (faithful to the vintage 1952 versions) a Celsius/Fahrenheit conversion scale etched into the caseback. Production of the Navitimer Cosmonaute will be limited to 1,962 pieces.

Facebook Camera VS Instagram Camera

Doesn't Facebook own Instagram now anyway? Facebook Camera has just barely been announced, but that didn’t stop Gizmodo from pitting the new application against another similar app: Instagram. The two apps share many similarities, but there’s also some differences such as the amount of filters, which favors Instagram. Other key points that Gizmodo points out are the fact that Instagram shows you photos of people you actually follow, while Camera shows you photos from ALL of your friends on Facebook with no way of filtering. Anyway, read the full article here.

SEALAB Rolex 5512 Submariner

Owned by veteran Navy man Bob Barth who was a member of the SEALAB program – the Navy’s first foray into saturation diving – in which “aquanauts” lived in a pressurized habitat underwater for days and weeks on end, the watch has endured a lifetime of significant dives. Barth bought his 5512 Submariner in 1964, just prior to the first SEALAB expedition which took place off the coast of Bermuda at a depth of 192 feet. The only member of SEALAB to contribute to all three stages of the program, Barth and his trusty watch are truly a national treasure. The 1964 5512 Rolex Submariner is slated for auction at a starting price of $150,000 USD.

These May releases are rounded out with 10oz. canvas shorts in olive or tobacco that fit in nicely with the rest of the offerings.

Nick Diamond...

Nick Tershay, or better known as Nick Diamond, created a Californian skatewear line, Diamond Supply Co., back in 1998 after selling skateboarding gears at the back door of Eric Koston and Guy Mariano’s Fourstar label. Immersing himself in a passion for delivering products that fused street couture and skateboarding sensibilities, Nick knew success would always be in reach as long as the originality remained. Now portraying a lifestyle that embodies constantly doing exactly what you love, the man behind creating the Tiffany Dunk SB offers collection after collection behind the Diamond Supply Co. philosophy of producing limited number pieces making every garment as rare as a diamond. In our latest Essentials installment, Nick Diamond displays an array of personal must-haves, be it traveling around the world promoting his brand or locked in the lab cooking up pure streetwear. As you can see, he doesn’t just talk about some self-empowering lifestyle, he lives it, literally sporting his label from head to toe. What is also evident is his love to create clothes keeping a Pantone book and measuring tape close by as well as showcasing an affinity for fine jewelry, classic cars and what else — skateboarding.
