Leica’s SL3 Reporter
Here’s a new addition to Leica‘s Reporter series, a rather robust version of the SL3 in a long line of specially developed cameras. Equipped with features specially designed for harsh conditions, the SL3 Reporter provides maximum precision even under the toughest shooting situations. The scratch-resistant dark green finish and aramid fabric cover also offers extra protection against abrasion and such.
A Night on Earth: The First Light
The year’s winding down and the holidays will be here before you know it. As a way to mark the arrival of the New Year, The Macallan’s A Night on Earth: The First Light has been launched. Drawing inspiration from one of the first sunrises of the year—which will take place in New Zealand—the whisky blends the warmth of togetherness with the spirit of new beginnings. Created from sherry-seasoned American and European oak casks, with a touch of American oak casks that previously held bourbon, the whisky offers a delicate sweetness of berry compote, toasted marshmallows and New Zealand Manuka honey, topped with a gentle spice and oak finish to underscore the joy of ringing in a new chapter.
Yours for S$175 at The Macallan House.
TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph x Senna
Formula 1 champion Ayrton Senna was not just an extraordinary driver, but a symbol of precision, performance and passion. Over 30 years after his passing, the influence that Senna has had on culture, motorsport and watchmaking continues to resonate, and his enduring legacy has inspired the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph x Senna, available in two editions. Be it the 44mm automatic chronograph or the 43mm quartz, they both serve as lasting tribute, with the hope to inspire future generations to embrace excellence, courage and passion, both on and off the track.
