The Audi quattro Experience is a one-of-a-kind interactive installation that features a 20-foot by 7-foot, handcrafted raceway built by custom slot track builder David Beattie of Slot Mods USA. The scale model Audi A4 slot cars were made from scratch with in-car cameras that allow racers a first-person look as they zip around the track, through the world's first iPad-enabled controllers. Here's a behind-the-wheel look at how David and his team raced to get this project finished.

Like fine timepieces, quality pens require detailed craftsmanship. That's evident in the perpetual calendar mechanism of the Anytime pen from Paolo Favaretto and Montegrappa. The pen's lid has three notched dials for the date, day, and month that provide haptic feedback when adjusted and lock into place using technology from the company's ratchet piston-fill mechanism. The pen is available in two models: Maestro, with a black resin and Delrin body with stainless steel trim, and Supremo, with a red resin body and yellow gold-plated brass trim. Both rollerball and fountain versions are available; the latter models have 18k gold nibs, and every pen regardless of model is limited to 365 numbered pieces and arrives pre-adjusted to show the date of manufacture.

Sandalwood plays a key role in many men's fragrances. Panache Santal from Oxford Hill honors this tradition. While the top note is floral, with scents of lilies and rose, the base is a masculine mix of sandalwood, cedar, and vetiver. With a heart of papyrus, cardamom, and amber, this is a versatile scent that goes on easily with roll-on application and lasts for hours.
