Omega Made a New Seamaster

Omega

The Planet Ocean 600M currently retails for a little over $13,000, and was designed to pay tribute to the defenders of the 37th America’s Cup. Nestled on the black ceramic dial, fans can spot a small countdown indicator at 3 o’clock. Meanwhile, a small America’s Cup trophy counterweight balances on the seconds hand and the entire 45mm timepiece glows with turquoise accents in homage to the Emirates Team New Zealand logo.

Check Out Exped’s New Hiking Packs

Exped

While Exped is probably best known for its ultra-comfy sleeping pads, the brand has also used that same lightweight know-how to craft three new backpacks. The Impulse ($140) is described as the brand’s ‘workhorse’ and can keep you set for a long day hike. The Typhoon ($100) is a waterproof pack for rainy days, and the Summit Hike ($100) is all you need for a more casual day trip to your favorite lookout point.

Dyson Dropped a New Wet/Dry Vacuum

Dyson

The Dyson V15s Detect Submarine Absolute ($950) is designed to tackle spills, tough stains and general debris. Equipped with the same click-in battery fans know and love, the vacuum also boasts an LCD screen and comes with a wall-mounted charging dock. Washable parts make cleanup a breeze, as does an improved no-touch bin emptying system. All in all, the new device takes everything you love about your old Dyson, and also equips it to wash hard floors.

With prices starting at $1,199, fans can choose from 25 different configurations to build their perfect set today.

HP Created the Spectre Fold

HP

This new, super-thin Windows laptop that comes with a 17-inch OLED screen you can fold in half.

More notably, the company also insists that the Spectre Fold is the “world’s first foldable PC with built-in AI for security, wellness and gesture controls.” Fans can pre-order the device today, with shipments starting on October 4.
