September 2009 – Her Watch and Pen

Do You Need To Get Into Shape?

At one time or another, nearly everyone feels a need to get into shape, or get back into shape. Exercise may be tough, but tracking your exercise progress doesn’t have to be. Tech4o offers a few choices for this purpose.

Tech4o Women's Sport Watch The Women’s Accelerator TW2 is an all-purpose sport watch. Designed to take the guesswork out of your workouts, the accelerometer works under all weather conditions, indoors and out. It measures distance, speed, and calories burned, giving the information on an easy to read face. It has a built-in personal profile program, allowing the user to customize the watch to her specific body type and exercise level. The bezel is stainless steel, and able to take on most active sports.

Tech4o Women's Running Watch The Women’s Accelerator RW2 is designed with the runner in mind. It also measures distance, speed, and calories burned, and allows easy stride adjustments for different running speeds using the same accelerometer technology. It also has a personal profile program, for additional customization. Its two-toned pink design is feminine, but not overwhelmingly girly.

Hopefully, you are already in shape. Whether you are or not, these watches may be great tools to help you with your exercise goals!

Shhhhhhhh!

We all have secrets. There is one pen designed to hide them for you.

The Scrigno Pen

The Delta Pen Company, designed a pen with a secret compartment in the cap. The Scrigno Collection comes in midnight black, violet, and white hand-turned resin, with a larger barrel for the pen body. The compartment in the cap is large enough for notes or an additional pen refill. The compartment is made from food-grade steel, so it can even be used for pills. The fountain pen comes with a fine, medium, or broad nib, and there is a rollerball version, too.

Have something to hide? Try the Scrigno!

Like a Fine Wine

Château Lafite Rothschild pen It is said that a fine wine matures and gets better with age. I wonder of that holds true for pens as well.

Pen manufacturer Omas, in partnership with Château Lafite Rothschild, has released a limited edition line of pens crafted out of the wood from the oak in Château Lafite Rothschild wine casks. The unique pens have an oval shape to the body, imspired by the shape of the casks they are cut from. A diamond stylus engraving of the Domaines Baron de Rothschild logo is on the nib of the fountain pen, as the seal of the new venture. The nibs are crafted in 18k gold, and the top of the pen is deep red enamel, to signify the bordeaux wine of Château Lafite Rothschild.

1797 is the vintage of the oldest bottles preserved in the Château Lafite Rothschild cellars. To honor this, Omas issued 1000 fountain pens, and 797 roller ball pens. To write with a pen like this, while enjoying a good glass of wine, would be a wonderful experience!
