There's nothing quite as mesmerizing as a tourbillion complication on a luxury timepiece. And Era has not only created a beautiful example, but they've done it at a price that's considerably less than the majority of tourbillions on the market. The Prometheus Titan is built around a 44m hand-polished case with ultra-scratch resistant Sapphire glass that houses a dial with a GMT hour hand, day/night complication, — and of course — the elegant flow of the single-axis manual tourbillion movement. The platinum bezel with 78 round GH colored diamonds weighing 2.3 carats add an extra layer of class and brilliance, and the timepiece is finished with a Hornback style leather strap with quick release bars. The Titan arrives in a box made from pure custom wood that is lacquered carefully over hours and the watch is backed by Era's two-year international warranty.

Architecture can be both inspiring and controversial and so can the people behind it. In the biography The Man in the Glass House, architectural critic Mark Lamster highlights one of the field's most iconic and most criticized masters Philip Johnson. The Cleveland-born architect is known for bringing European modernism to The States with his sleek lines and his masterful use of glazing like in his New Canaan Glass House. Although he is regarded as one of the most influential practitioners, having been the founding architectural curator of the Museum of Modern art and the inaugural winner of the Pritzker Prize, his work didn't go without scrutiny, and neither did his personality.
