Amazon Echo

It's a speaker. It's a music system. And much more. The Amazon Echo is a new cloud-connected gadget designed around your voice. Always on, you wake it by saying "Alexa", then asking it questions or giving it commands. Want to know the weather? Just ask. Want to add something to your shopping list? Done. In the mood for some Beatles? Say the words. With dual down-firing speakers, it produces surprisingly rich sound, and thanks to integrated Bluetooth, it also syncs with the Echo app, and lets you stream music from any source you want — although you probably won't have to use the feature very often, as it offers built-in support for your Amazon Music Library, Prime Music, TuneIn, and iHeartRadio.

Guinness 1759 Beer

One of the most iconic beer brands around has something special up its sleeve with Guinness 1759 this fall. 1759 is a limited edition amber ale based on a 200-year-old recipe using a blend of traditional beer malt and peated whisky malt, along with Guinness yeast. Named for the year that Arthur Guinness signed the lease for St. James' Gate in Dublin, and clocking in at 9% ABV, this should please those loyal to the Guinness brand and beer connoisseurs alike.

Cocoon Home Security Device

To keep your house safe, you could go the traditional route and have an elaborate security system installed. Or could just grab a Cocoon Home Security Device. This single, simple device aims to protect your entire home by using Subsound technology to sense activity even in other rooms. It learns your normal activity schedules to reduce false alarms, and also adds in a pet-friendly motion detector, a loud siren designed to disorientate intruders, and a wide-angle, night vision-capable HD camera with high-quality microphone to let you check in on things remotely and record evidence if necessary. All with only one wire to plug in: the power cord.

Milwaukee Inkzall Stylus Marker

Using a Sawzall with gloves on is easy. Using an iPad with gloves on the jobsite is not. Unless you have the Milwaukee Inkzall Stylus Marker. Designed to let workers use their iPads, phones, and other touchscreen devices while keeping their gloves on, it features a soft stylus tip, a clog-resistant, fine-point permanent marker with a quick dry time, and an integrated hard hat clip that allows you to keep it handy for instant access when and where you need it.

What I Love About Movies

When learning more about cinema, one of the best resources around is the people who make the films themselves. What I Love About Movies is a compendium of knowledge gathered by asking some of these very people a simple question: "What do you love about movies?" The interesting, informative answers from the likes of Quentin Tarantino, Tom Hardy, Francis Ford Coppola, the Coen Brothers, Ryan Gosling, Wes Anderson, Steven Soderbergh, Darren Aronofsky, and many more are accompanied by newly-commissioned illustrations from some of the world's best artists, graphic designers, and illustrators.

Smartwatches are increasingly becoming the de facto way to track your activity. But what if you like the watch(es) you already have? The Jawbone Up Move is an affordable alternative. This waterproof, clip-on activity and sleep tracker pairs with your phone using Bluetooth — just like it's "smarter" brethren — for tracking and advice from the Up app's Smart Coach, while 12 on-board LEDs give you an at-a-glance look at your daily progress. And since it's available in five colors, you should be able to find one that fits in with your lifestyle.

2015 Porsche Cayenne GTS

It's not quite as quick as its Turbo equivalent, but the 2015 Porsche Cayenne GTS is far from a slouch. Powered by an all-new 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6, the GTS boasts 440 hp, a 0-60 time of just 5.2 seconds, and a top speed of 163 mph. Other features include Porsche Active Suspension Management that lets the GTS sit 20 millimeters lower, 20-inch RS Spyder wheels, brakes borrowed from its faster Turbo sibling, a sportier body with the turbo nose fascia, a roof spoiler, and wheel arch extensions, eight-way adjustable GTS sport seats, and a multi-function sport steering wheel with paddle shifters.

Quadrofoil

Enjoy a smooth, comfortable, sporty ride over the water without wasting gas aboard the Quadrofoil. This dual-seat watercraft uses C-foil technology to lift the vessel above the water, reducing water resistance, increasing efficiency, and creating a feeling of flying. It's powered by an electric motor so it's nearly silent, creates zero emissions, and yet still offers a range of up to 100km per charge and a cruising speed of up to 20 knots. It boasts a patented, integrated steering system, a steering wheel with an integrated touch screen that keeps you informed about battery life, range, speed, and power consumption, and since its lightweight composite hull weighs only 220 pounds, it's easy to get in and out of the water.

Everlane Chunky Knit Sweaters

As temperatures slowly fall, Everlane reminds us it's time to think layers. With their new Chunky Knit Sweaters, the company crafted two handsome offerings — a classic crew and a modern shawl-collar cardigan — from an extra-fine, super-soft Merino wool that will have you wondering why you've been wearing itchy pull-overs your entire life. Take your pick from navy, grey, or black, and ward off winter's chill with an extra layer of comfort and style.

Jura Brooklyn Scotch Whiskey

Don't let the name confuse you, Scotch still needs to be distilled in Scotland, but that doesn't mean that Brooklyn didn't play a role in this whiskey. Jura Brooklyn was created when Jura sent their Master Distiller to the US to craft a single malt scotch, chosen by and for the people of Brooklyn. A host of local representatives chose a 16 year-old whiskey aged in American White Oak Bourbon, Amoroso Sherry, and Pinot Noir casks and bottled 84 proof. A whiskey worthy of both the Jura and Brooklyn names.

Jawbone Up3

Packed full of sensors, the Jawbone Up3 isn't concerned about incoming notifications from your phone. It is concerned with your health and fitness. To keep track of it, it uses a new tri-axis accelerometer, bioimpedance sensors, skin sensors, and ambient temperature sensor to track your resting heart rate, sleep stages, and activities and workouts, with more metrics promised in future updates. To make sense of all this data, it syncs with the Up App and its Smart Coach that keeps track of your progress and delivers personalized guidance. And thanks to a water-resistant body and up to a full week of battery life, there's little reason for you to take it off.

Luxe Valet Parking

Valet parking is great. Now you can get the same experience wherever you are (in San Francisco, at least) with Luxe Valet Parking. This new service and app combination runs $5 an hour up to a maximum of $15 a day, and works like this: A Luxe valet meets you at the time and place you specify. They take your car and park it in a secure lot, and will even fill it up with gas or get it washed if you request. When you're ready to use your car again, they'll return it to you where ever you are — so even if a morning meeting turns into an unexpected dinner ten blocks away, you're covered.

MB&F HM6 Space Pirate Watch

Inspired by classic Japanese sci-fi cartoons and 1970s biomorphic design, the MB&F HM6 Space Pirate Watch is a fantastically weird timepiece. Inside its solid titanium case, a new calibre made up of 475 different components, 68 jewels and a complex web of gears, turbines, and rotors keep the vertically-revolving hour and minute spheres moving underneath four of the watch's 10 domed sapphire crystals. Limited to just 50 units, it's finished off with a handsome black calfskin strap that no one's going to notice because they'll be too busy staring at the top of your wrist.

Uboat Worx HP Sport Sub 2

When things on the super yacht start to get boring and the deep sea beckons, the Uboat Worx HP Sport Sub 2 is the perfect vessel. It boasts a new acrylic-steel pressure hull design, brushless electric thrusters that can reach speeds of 3 knots on the surface or 2 knots when submerged, and even a dual-joystick, gamepad-style controller. Launch from the yacht or directly from a trailer and explore what lies beneath the surface with a passenger for up to six hours at a time.

Sierra Nevada Barrel-Aged Narwhal Beer

As black as midnight, Sierra Nevada already has a winner on its hands in Narwhal, their Imperial Stout. But Barrel-Aged Narwhal raises the bar, mellowing some of the beer's flavors while intensifying others. After aging in Kentucky bourbon barrels, this 12.9% ABV beast has plenty of bark, but very little bite. It's smooth, sweet, and mellow till the last pour. Available nationally, but in small quantities, making it nearly as rare as its namesake.

Shinola Black Blizzard Watch

It makes perfect sense that a company that is already associated with American perseverance would create a timepiece that personifies that same quality. The Black Blizzard from Shinola was inspired by the Dust Bowl of the 1930s and those who were to determined to overcome tough times. The latest in the Runwell series features sapphire crystal printed dial details, a brushed titanium case finish, an interchangeable solid titanium bracelet and custom-made rubber watch strap.
