Na Na Noguchi
This certainly isn't new, but man, isn't it beautiful? It's the perfect balance-literally-between art and furniture. Sculptor Isamu Noguchi created this iconic table in 1948, and it's been a classic ever since. In joining a curved, solid wood base with a freeform glass top, Noguchi created an ethereal look that doesn't diminish the practical design-it's one sturdy and durable table. There are a ton of knockoffs out there, but none come close to the stunning original, still made to this day by furniture manufacturer Herman Miller.

Able to shoot film or digital (60mp!), not to mention looking awesome, the 12 TC produces shots that would make Ansel Adams wet himself.

Time is Money
Oh boy, another ridiculously priced watch that's too fragile to even be worn. What's that? Spanish tennis phenom Rafael Nadal wore it while winning the French Open? This might require a closer look. Supposedly light enough to not interfere with Nadal's play, the insanely complex tourbillon mechanical watch is crafted with a carbon-composite case and aluminum lithium alloys-the same stuff used in aerospace manufacturing-and tips the scales at a mere 20 grams, strap included. At this price, we'll take two.
