The landing of Apollo 11 on the moon has just become an excuse now to dole out one luxe item after another, in commemoration of the historic event. Not that we are complaining! This once is the famous brand Fisher Space Pen Co. which has decided to launch a limited edition of AG7-40LE Space Pens. With only 1000 units in production, this pen is trying its best to justify its exclusivity. We are told that it is the replica of the historic anti-gravity model pen.
There is a piece of ‘Kapton’ foil floating in its water-clear acrylic dome sealed into the pen’s cap. For the uninitiated, this foil was used as a protective thermal insulation on the Apollo 11 Command module. Boy, and if that wasn’t enough for the space die-hards, this rare pen is finished with blac titanium nitride and also has detailed engravings of the pen’s serial number as well as the names of the Apollo 11 crew in 24-K gold.

The historic landing of the Apollo 11 on the moon 40 years ago is a moment of celebration all over the world. The television busies itself presenting programmes based on the achievement while movie channels showcase films of similar genre. And guess what Louis Vuitton does? Well, it creates a custom-order trunk called Malle Mars. Now we do wonder, why they didn’t think of a more appropriate Moonie Moon, but that’s a different issue altogether.
Coming back to Malle Mars, we are told that it looks like somethings that comes straight from the sets of ‘Star Trek’. It is an aerodynamic trunk with several compartments to meet all sorts of space requirements when one is on the go, which even includesdrawers for dishware and a folding chair.

Let’s admit it hat Patek Phillipe watches are not in the affordable range for most of us. But hey, that should not stop us from admiring a luxury that is so spectacular. The Sky Moon Tourbillon watch available at SoKoBe have garnered a lot of attention owing to their inspiration from the sky moon.
The timepiece is a two-faced one, and we intend so in a good way. When one side gives you a glance of the perpetual calendar, the other one displays a celestial view complete with the star movement, moon orbit and moon phases.
