Trilobe only releases spectacular, inspired designs – and now, with Grail Watch 3: Trilobe Une Folle Soirée “Wild Night” ($23,400), the brand has once again cemented that reputation. Created in partnership with Wei Koh’s (founder of Revolution and The Rake) Grail Watch, the new timepiece features three concave, curved rings that reimagine the traditional time-telling display. Each ring floats above the watch’s dial, where an exposed movement is revealed. The watch’s case is made with Grade 5 titanium, and the manual movement is the Self-winding caliber Trilobe X-Centric. While the first release sold out immediately, fans can add themselves to the waitlist at the link below.

Planning on hosting? Don’t forget to shovel the driveway first – only do it faster with DMOS’ Stealth Shovel ($119). The lightweight model weighs in at just 3.5 pounds and is made with bend-proof, “indestructible” aluminum. Equipped with an oversized blade, you’ll be able to remove dirt and snow more efficiently thanks to the shovel’s toothed edge and break up hard-packed ice and slush in no time. Meanwhile, the packable design means the shovel will easily pack up when it’s time to put it away or haul it over to a friend’s house.

Make that One Chore, a Little Cooler

The holidays mean lots and lots of holiday cards. So why not slice them open in style? Luckily, this Damascus Letter Opener ($39) can add a little flair to the task. Boasting a four-inch blade, the knife is made from a single piece of Damascus steel – which features 300 layers hand-forged from the barrel of a Leopard battle tank. So yeah, it’s a pretty hefty upgrade from those kitchen scissors.
