You Can Now Order The 2025 Porsche 911 GTS T-Hybrid

Images courtesy of Porsche From JustLuxe Content Partner MensGear When news first surfaced about Porsche’s foray into sustainable motoring, most were genuinely excited, while some had doubts. However, the remarkable success of the first-generation Taycan and its succeeding iterations tell us the marque nailed the formula. Now, they’re catering to potential clients still on the fence regarding EVs with the 911 GTS T-Hybrid.

Inside Four Seasons Hotel Seattle

The fourth floor rooftop infinity pool at Four Seasons Hotel Seattle features spectacular bay viewsSeattle boasts a multitude of hospitality options, but none are as representative of “The Emerald City” as Four Seasons Hotel Seattle. An authentic ambassador for the region, the 147-room downtown hotel is consistently recognized as the place to stay when in town.

It is definitely the coffee—strong and aromatic, and delivered to guests in-room each morning via the dedicated “coffee concierge.” Together, these and other attributes add up to a spectacular Seattle stay. The hotel and…

Angular Momentum x Paolo Mathai Horology âAfterburnerâ

Images: Martin PauliMost people are only familiar with the names Patek Philippe, Rolex and brands within the corporate groups (LVMH, Richemont and Swatch). It’s not really surprising because these companies have astronomical budgets and therefore can afford to pay millions on sponsorship deals. In the last decade brand ambassadors have become big business. Celebrities from the film, music and sports sectors receive huge endorsements to be photographed wearing the latest timepieces. Commercially it makes great sense because ultimately these organizations are in the business of making money. For that reason, it is very challenging for small independents to get any…
