Oris pays tribute with its own clock to Oscar Peterson, considered one of the greatest jazz pianists of all time. With this initiative, the manufacturing Confederation celebrates the end of the year in music, in the name of an artist who, with his career and his instrument, has inspired the design of the new special timepiece in a limited edition of 1925 pieces.

Oris, orologio Oscar Peterson limited edition

The dial is reminiscent of a long-playing, while the indices, finely applied, have the shape of the keys of a piano: a way to highlight the hundreds of recordings made by Canadian musician during the long career. Among the Roman numerals of the hours, loved by Peterson, is that of the eighth plated in gold, as a tribute to his eight Grammy Awards. The price is 1,350 euros, inf from Chrono24.

Belkin has a product line called “Live Action” and designed specifically for the iPhone possibilities of the camera 4S.

The first is the Double Grip, not so different from an independent designer had the idea about a month ago, the Air Clip. This is a small device that makes the iPhone easier to use with one hand, turning it into a more convenient compact camera. The grip also adds a button to the shutter ergonomic for photos. The iPhone is stuck inside in the 30-pin socket.

The second accessory is a remote room, remote control to use the iPhone from a distance via Bluetooth, perfect for those family shots or to shoot themselves. With it also includes a handy stand to guide us toward the goal of the iPhone camera. 4 Works with iPhone, iPod Touch, and 4s. Of course, not a stroke of genius as Swivl, but remain functional.

The third is the Mic, the directional microphone to improve appreciably the audio quality of our movies, also equipped with Super Directional Mode to capture every word we say (or said a university professor in a cavernous hall). It attaches to the audio jack of the iPhone and keeps it in an upright position.

All three accessories should be available now or in the home stretch before Christmas.
