With its penchant for pens and watches already acclaimed, the German design house Montblanc marries its two passions with a new timepiece, the Homage to Nicolas Rieussec II—a tribute to the credited inventor of the ink-trace chronograph. After the French watchmaker’s first instrument proved so effective at accurately recording the close finishes at the Arrondissement de la Seine horse race in Paris in 1821, he improved upon it with a second iteration in 1825. The latter model (which Montblanc now honors) …

Robb Report Health & Wellness editor Janice O’Leary sat down with Joy Bauer, MS, RDN—and a New York Times best-selling author and the nutrition and health expert for NBC’s Today Show—to talk about healthy snacking and her newly released Nourish Snacks.

Can snacking play a role in healthy nutritional habits?

Absolutely. Snacking between meals on the right stuff in the right proportions can help steady blood sugars, increase focus, boost energy, and keep your appetite in check, which prevents over…

The engineering wizards at BMW’s high-performance M division have worked their magic again—this time producing a souped-up version of the M4 coupe introduced last year. Making its world debut at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, the BMW Concept M4 GTS is a performance beast, equally at home on the road or the racetrack. The M4’s 425 hp, turbocharged engine gets a boost thanks to a new water-injection system that sprays a fine mist into the intake manifold, cooling the air and resulting in an increase in po…

If you thought your yacht was too small for a submersible, the new U-Boat Worx Super Yacht Sub 3 will deep-six that sentiment. The same Netherlands-based builders that introduced the C-Explorer 3 last year have billed their latest addition as the most compact three-person submersible on the market—besting their smallest previous offering, the HP Sport Sub 2. The approximately 10-foot × 8-foot craft weighs less than 8,300 pounds and fits in a standard shipping container.

Another feature that competitors have…

Not a timepiece for the prudish, Ulysse Nardin’s Hourstriker Erotica Jarretière is a contemporary renaissance of the uninhibited horology that premiered in the 17th century. The black-onyx dial exposes a voyeuristic view of an interior balcony in Venice. Handcrafted Jaquemarts (animated figures) in 18-karat gold take the form of a couple reclined in carnal comfort upon a chaise, while a pair of high-heel shoes and a jarretière, or garter, lie seductively in the foreground. Behind them, the Rialto Bridge spans …

Exterior spaces include a flybridge that can be configured into a lounging nook complete with sun pads; a deck with ample space for alfresco dining and entertainment; and a private balcony that grants guests welcome access to …

If you have noticed some of your favorite bourbons are not as plentiful as they once were, know there is a reason for it. The rumors are true—there is a definite bourbon shortage in America. The dearth of our native spirit has been caused by a sudden resurgence in demand for a whiskey that takes at least four years to mature, with some of the more desirable brands ranging from nine to 23 years old, and the barrel aging cannot be rushed.

In addition, the craft-cocktail movement, coupled with a quest …
