Ball Watch “Roadmaster Pilot GMT”

Each button is slightly rotated (1 click = 60° / 6 clicks to rotate 1 turn) to alternately unlock and lock, preventing erroneous operation and being safe from the viewpoint of waterproof and dustproof. The crown has a maximum of two steps, the first stage is for adjusting the date, and the second stage is for adjusting the time when the non-second hand moves in tandem.

The 24-hour ceramic top bezel, which rotates in both directions, is blue during daylight hours and black during nighttime, and can be used in conjunction with a skeleton-designed GMT hand that makes one lap in 24 hours to display a third time zone different from Greenwich Mean Time or home time. The short hand, on the other hand, can be adjusted independently by two pushbuttons on the left side of the case (10 o’clock button to advance every hour and 8 o’clock button to return every hour). Therefore, you can quickly adjust to the local time at your destination.

Effective use of titanium in cases and bracelets

The current standard size case with a diameter of 40 mm is made of titanium, which has the advantages of being hard, lightweight, and resistant to rust, and has a satin finish on the surface that gives a calm impression. The bracelet is a combination of titanium and SS and optimizes the weight balance to achieve a good fit on the arm. In addition, to enjoy the dynamism of the mechanical movement, a sapphire caseback is used.

Full of practical functions and the strongest cost performance

Other features include 300 m water resistance for daily use, shockproof construction (5,000 Gs), smart case (14 mm thick), anti-reflective sapphire glass windshield for visibility even in strong sunlight, Swiss C.O.S.C. certified chronometer for high accuracy, and date display to help you during your business time. It is also characterized by high basic performance in pursuit of usability. Of course, the hands and dial are equipped with the self-luminous micro-gaslight that is the symbol of the ball watch, and the ceramic top bezel scale is coated with a phosphorescent Super-LumiNova to ensure good dim visibility.

Combining Hublot’s popular concepts, colours and designs, the new Big Bang Unico Carbon Sky Blue is now available in a unique limited edition Japan.

Big Bang Unico Carbon Sky Blue

Hublot has unveiled a limited edition Japan model: the Big Bang Unico Carbon Sky Blue. With the iconic Big Bang Unico with a lightweight and unique carbon fibre case and bezel, this model combines sportiness with a glamorous presence. Hublot watchmaking techniques, stylish blue and black contrasts and the materials used for the case and strap are all a combination of their characteristics.　Embodying the brand concept “Art of Fusion” (fusion of different materials and ideas), this precious timepiece is limited to 100 pieces.

Big Bang Unico Carbon Sky Blue

The case, caseback and bezel are made of matte sky blue carbon with a sky blue composite of carbon fiber. When creating the case material, a nonwoven fabric (NWF) formed by microfiber is impregnated with carbon fiber using epoxy resin, which is then placed in a special mold to manufacture the prototype of the case.

The unique patterns of black and sky blue occur naturally in the process of material generation, so the same pattern will never appear. Each one looks different, so each is a one-of-a-kind timepiece.

This model is the second in the Japan limited edition Big Bang Unico Carbon White, which was launched in 2022 and was well received. The combination of a refreshing blue evoking a bright skyless sky and Hublot’s signature black colour was used for the first time in the Big Bang Unico.

Big Bang Unico Carbon Sky Blue

The dial, indexes, indials, and hands are unified in black, giving a chic impression that contrasts with the light sky blue. It is also equipped with the Unico chronograph movement, developed and manufactured in-house with approximately 72 hours of power resale and flyback function, and its structure can be seen from the dial and caseback.

The Big Bang Unico Carbon Sky Blue combines a unique carbon case with a rubber strap with Sky Blue and black lines, plus a black Velcro strap. Thanks to the patented “one-click” system, you can easily change the strap and enjoy it according to your mood and fashion.

Hyundai Ioniq 5 Lounge AWD Limited Edition


magnification

On May 16, 2023, Hyundai Mobility Japan held Hyundai Brand Day, an event for the press to announce its 2023 strategy, in Shibuya, Tokyo.

Ioniq 5 Update

At the event, Won-ha Yoo, Representative Director and Vice President of Hyundai Motor Company of Korea, and Cho Won-san, President and CEO of Hyundai Mobility Japan, took the stage. In addition to announcing an updated version of the Ioniq 5 electric vehicle (EV) and a limited edition of the Ioniq 5 Lounge AWD Limited Edition, the company unveiled two models for the Japan: the new Kona Electric electric SUV, which is scheduled to be introduced in the second half of 2023, and the Ioniq 6, an electric four-door coupe.

The Ioniq 5 features a new battery preconditioning function that raises the battery temperature before charging, and a boost charging program that temporarily increases the initial charge output. In addition to the AWD model set for the “Voyage” grade, “Atlas White Matte” has been added to the outer panel color.

The new Ioniq 5 lineup and pricing are as follows:

Ioniq 5: 4.79 million yen
Ioniq 5 Voyage: 5.19 million yen
Ioniq 5 Voyage AWD: 5.49 million yen
Ioniq 5 Lounge: 5.59 million yen
Ioniq 5 Lounge AWD: 5.99 million yen

A limited edition car equipped with a digital side mirror appears

The Ioniq 5 Lounge AWD Limited Edition is equipped with digital side mirrors as standard, and is available in two exterior colors: the exclusive “Lucid Blue Pearl” (20 units sold) and the additional color “Atlas White Matte” (80 units). The interior color is “Dark Teal”, which is exclusive to the limited edition model. The price is 6,195,000 yen for the former and 6,290,000 yen for the latter.

Introducing new services for new vehicles

In addition to the Ioniq 5 to be sold in the future, Hyundai Mobility Japan also announced that it will add and apply the new car service “Hyundai Assurance Program” to models sold after May 2022.

The Hyundai Assurance Program consists of two services: “Healthcare” and “Style Care”. Healthcare is a program designed to check the health of the vehicle and help people spend their car life with peace of mind, and Style Care is a service to eliminate worries and anxieties about scratches and damage to the vehicle body.

As for healthcare, Hyundai bears the statutory basic inspection fee for the first and second years after new vehicle registration, the basic vehicle inspection fee and final inspection fee for the third year, and the continuous registration fee. At the time of vehicle inspection in the third year, the low-conductivity “battery coolant” dedicated to EVs will be replaced free of charge.

In Style Care, when the vehicle is damaged, the target parts (bumper, door mirror, windshield, up to two tires) are repaired free of charge (one of them per year, up to a maximum of 100,000 yen per year).

Beyond the exhibition space displaying new works and representative models is a track and field that can only be reached by those who have mastered their own path to reach the top. In the stadium where you can feel the warmth of wood, the guests had a lot of fun and the event ended with great success.

Speaking at the unveiling of the Japan limited edition model and the appointment of the Ambassador, Chopard Co-President Karl-Friedrich Scheufele said: “In fact, the country where the Alpine Eagle is most popular is Japan, and we want to express our gratitude to them, so we are pleased to announce the Japan limited edition of SHIKKOKU. As the title suggests, the dial is black, and of course the hands tell you the time, but they don’t put the subject there. It has a very bold and powerful design, and when you actually wear it on your wrist, you will feel its special feeling. When I finally met him today, I realized that there is probably no one in the world who suits this watch better than him.”

Ambassador Keita Inagaki said: “I am truly honored to have this wonderful opportunity and I will continue to do my best to convey the charm of this watch to everyone. The Japan limited edition model that appeared this time is called “SHIKKOKU”, and black is my favorite color. This means that they stuck to black even deeper than black, and I was impressed by the soul of the craftsman. The design of the belt also brings out its strength, and it is a watch that you will want to wear forever.”

Dyson Corporation (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo: President & CEO: Peter Smith, hereinafter referred to as “Dyson”) today announced the launch of a limited edition Japan Dyson Supersonic Shine hair dryer from April 25, 2023. This new model is equipped with three attachments, including a newly developed “gloss tool”. From today, it will be released sequentially at Dyson directly managed stores, Dyson official online store, department stores, affiliated hair salons, and electronics retailers.

The “Gloss Tool” is a redesign of the previous “Hair Relief Tool” and adds additional functionality in two modes. Use the “Smooth Brush Mode” from wet conditions to dry your hair while adjusting the waviness and smoothing it. And in the “Floating Hair Inhibition Mode”, you can use the Coanda effect to hide the floating hair and give it a cohesive finish. This tool is for customers who want to achieve a natural straight style and a smooth, glossy finish at home while preserving the natural luster of their hair. Professional stylists use brushes and dryers to achieve the ideal “shiny hair” for many people, but this tool is also useful when you need to perform at your best in a limited time, such as behind the scenes of a fashion show. To complete a great hairstyle on the runway, you can support your hair with the right tools and techniques to protect your model’s hair from excessive heat damage.

Dyson Hair Care supported the hair styling of models who appeared on the “Dyson Hair SPECIAL STAGE” at the “36th Mynavi Tokyo Girls Collection 2023 SPRING/SUMMER” held on Saturday, March 4, 2023. Dyson Newsroom is offering backstage videos for a limited time.

Dyson revolutionized hair drying in 2016 with the launch of the Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer. Since then, we have refined our attachment technology to improve usability and performance. In 2021, we developed a “floating hair reduction tool” and successfully incorporated professional finishing techniques to give a shine to the surface of the hair, but now we wanted to replicate the way professional stylists use hair dryers and brushes. Based on Dyson’s hair care philosophy of “protecting hair health”, we thought we could develop an attachment that makes it easy for daily styling to be done at home and has the same results as professional finishing.

The “Gloss Tool” utilizes a phenomenon called the Coanda effect, in which air injected at high speed flows through the surface and adheres to the surface due to the difference in pressure. This concept was first utilized in Dyson bladeless fans, designed as a basic principle of the Dyson Airwrap™ styler, and reused in the design of the attachment called the “Floating Hair Reduction Tool”. Here, too, the concept of Dyson’s engineering approach, which is constantly repeating and trying to improve and leverage the previous one, comes into play.
