The Definitive Aviation-Inspired Sports Watch Just Entered Stealth Mode

The stealthiest version of Bell & Ross’s aviation-inspired integrated sports watch blacks out nearly every element for an ultra-cool aesthetic. The watch features a black ceramic case paired with your choice of a matching black ceramic integrated bracelet or an integrated black rubber strap equipped with a black PVD stainless steel deployant. The sapphire dial, meanwhile, is tinted black and offers a smoky view of the black rhodium-plated BR-CAL.322-1 automatic movement beneath, while the black hands and applied indices are all filled with black lume. How much blacker could this watch get? In the immortal words of Spinal Tap, “none more black.” The watch retails for $9,800 on the bracelet or $8,900 on the strap and is limited to 500 pieces.

Outerknown’s Kelly Slater-approved Apex trunks were already among the best board shorts you could buy. But that hasn’t stopped the brand from pursuing making them better. Now, after three years of R&D, they offer a “better fit, better length, a great scallop on the side for room in the leg,” and more. Per Slater himself, “I’m confident these are the best trunks ever made.” It doesn’t hurt that they’re more sustainable now, boasting a construction that’s over 90 percent recycled, using a combination of fishing nets and non-virgin elastane.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is the company’s sixth-generation clamshell-style foldable smartphone. It maintains a similar look and feel to last year’s Flip 6, but has several notable upgrades. The most obvious is its cover screen, which Samsung calls the FlexWindow, is significantly larger (4.1 inches vs last year’s 3.4 inches), faster (now with a 120Hz refresh rate), and more usable. Then, when you open the phone up, its 6.9-inch display is bigger than before, too. Samsung also upgraded it with a faster chipset and a larger battery. The only downside is that it maintains the same rear and selfie camera systems as last year’s models. Price has not changed.

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is the newest foldable smartphone in Samsung’s higher-end and more productivity-focused Fold series. And it promises to be quite the upgrade over last year’s Fold 6. The new model features a significantly thinner and lighter design, but both its cover and internals are larger, with thinner bezels, compared to the previous year’s model. It also features a faster processor and an upgraded rear camera system — specifically, Samsung has equipped it with the same 200-megapixel wide-angle camera found on its Galaxy S25 Ultra. The only real downside is that Samsung increased the price by $100.

Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 8 series features two smartwatches. The Galaxy Watch 8 is an updated version of last year’s Watch 7, while the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, which is a fancier version that has a rotating bezel, is a new and improved version of the last Classic, which was released two years prior. Both models have a new design with squared edges (similar to the Galaxy Watch Ultra), brighter displays, faster processors, and, most curiously, a new Antioxidant Index that can tell if you’re eating enough fruits and vegetables. On the downside, Samsung increased the price of the Watch 8 by $50.

Handcrafted in Hood River, Oregon using sustainable high-performance materials, this day pack offers a compelling blend of form and function. The Fidlock roll-top expands capacity from 18 to 23 liters, stretch side sleeves accommodate water bottles or additional gear and a front stash pocket offers smart organization for smaller daily essentials. The hydration-reservoir compatible pack also boasts a quick-access side zipper and a removable foam back panel that doubles as a lo-fi camp seat.

Both the R1S and R1T truck and SUV will receive a new quad-motor trim, delivering 1,025 horsepower and 1,198 lb-ft of torque thanks to a motor on each wheel. Since each one is individually controlled, the vehicles can perform a so-called “tank turn” — where it effectively spins in place to get out of tight spaces. Pricing starts at $125,990 for the R1S and $119,990 for the R1T.
