Hublot MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Sapphire
Asaph: Having worked with the Hublot Classic Fusion for the two previous rounds, it is only fitting that Takashi Murakami's three-peat collaboration with Hublot culminated with the Hublot MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Sapphire. The masterpiece takes the form of Murakami's inimitable flower motif fashioned from transparent sapphire. One can only imagine the manufacturing complexity given the curvatures that run throughout the watch. At the watch's heart lies a central flying tourbillon with a whole week's power reserve. A special stylus designed for the Hublot MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Sapphire winds the barrels fully in 100 revolutions.
Ben: The Hublot MP-15 Takashi Murakami Tourbillon Sapphire is - in some ways a reinvention of what a watch normally would look like. For this timepiece, Hublot and Murakami decided to integrate the watch's case, movement and dial singularly within Murakami's iconic twelve-petalled flower motif - an embodiment of the manufacture's "The Art of Fusion" motto. The case is also made from sapphire, elevating the watch by showing off the unique central flying tourbillon movement at the heart of the watch.
Cartier Santos-Dumont Micro-Rotor Skeleton
Asaph: Cartier's imaginative and at times whimsical disposition manifests as a fitting tribute to Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont. Without his request to Louis Cartier for a wristwatch, the Cartier Santos watch would not have seen the light of the world. The Cartier Santos-Dumont Micro-Rotor Skeleton plays on Cartier's signature skeletonisation technique with a figurine of Alberto Santos-Dumont's Demoiselle aeroplane as the watch's rotor. Upon motion, the aeroplane takes flight and powers the Cartier Santos-Dumont Micro-Rotor Skeleton into the realm of imagination.

Heavy Lidded
In the masculine world of grooming, the sport (or art) of decorating one's lids with darkened kohl has been practised amongst niche circles, reserved for only a few brave men willing to go - or draw - the lengths of a sharp winged liner. Given the past decade's adoration of the bare-is-best routines, the notion of lined eyes has been mostly cast away. However, as the return of the Indie Sleaze movement returns, confronting the pressing question cannot be put off any longer. Should the world be opening its eyes and waking up for the return of \"guyliner\"?
