The name Parmigiani Fleurer is not a stranger to collectors of expensive designer watches. Well, the designer indeed has an impressive list of coveted timepieces to his credit. And now, the man has decided to pay a tribute to the new super-saloon Galibier being made in the Bugatti workshop as well as the Alsatian automaker’s centenary.
There are two unique examples of Fleurier’s sideways mounted manual timepiece. One has been made in 18 carat rose gold and the second one in platinum 950. These are being celebrated as the two final examples of the highly intricate Bugatti Type 370 wristwatch. These were then passed on to master engraver Philippe Bondenmann who has dedicated 300 manhours into each trying to hand etch the comples designs into the cases of the watches.

Bugatti Veyron Pur Sang is one of the most expensive cars ever to be manufactured. It has even been listed on JamesList for the same reason. Florida’s auto dealer Forza Collezione has put up a fourth Pur Sang on sale, while only three had been available of the 5 ever manufactured. It is going to come with a price tag of $3.8 million and would not be within the reach of many people. It is made of exposed carbon fiber and comes with aluminium bodywork.
It was however sold out within 24 hours of its announcement. Perhaps one could track down the 5th car, which would make all the Pur Sangs to be bought by 5 different lucky people. Even when recession is at its full swing, people still manage to buy ultra luxury cars which suggests that the luxury market is not doing so badly after all.

There is something that I have always loved about luxury cars. Sometimes, it just becomes a nasty way to tell people to shut up, and to mind their business as they would know you are not the kind of person to be messed with, especially if you own a high-end car and had the attitude to carry with it.
The best of these cars has arrived now and it is the Bugatti Type 57 Atlantic. It is amazingly retro chic and would remind you of the golden days of classical Hollywood. Ralph Lauren has had a thing or two to do with this chic car and will be unveiled at the Concorso d’Eleganza.

The Bugatti Veyron is one car that can be sure to be forever remembered by the auto world for its undisputed mechanical excellence. But the brand wanted to give some more to its loyals and so the special edition of the super car was born. Spotted ahead of its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show, the new Bugatti Veyron Bleu Centenarie is the company’s way of saying ‘Happy 100th Birthday Bugatti’ as well as ‘Thank you consumers for supporting us’.
Giving an impressive top speed of 273 mph, the new superior Veyron model has been done in the famous signature blue Bugatti color. Among the other captivating features of the car, we were particularly taken up by the matte and glossy applications of the color on its body panels. The solid paint job is striking to say the least.
