WAS 1500.00 NOW 799.95 With its roots in the astrolabes developed by the ancient Greek astronomers to determine the position of the sun and stars, this astrolabium clock does more than simply count off hours, minutes, months, and dates. Crowning this extraordinary precision instrument is a miniature globe of the earth that rotates and revolves around a solid brass sun. Attached to the earth's gear assembly is the moon, which maintains its synchronous rotation around the earth (always presenting the same face to land-based observers, depicted by the grey hemisphere). All orbiting bodies move in real time, perfectly synchronized with clock's skeleton quartz movement, 24 solid-brass gears, and differential, all which provide precise timekeeping. Designed by Richard Hermle of the famous German clock-making family, it is an exacting reproduction of the beautiful 18th-century heaven machine built by the famous clockmaker Philipp Matthaus Hahn (1739-1790). Known to antiquity as a telurium, the astrolabium is mounted on a lacquered solid cherry base with a mouth-blown crystal dome. The miniature earth is made of a combination of four semi-precious stones, including abalone, green agate, jade, and mother of pearl, cut in detail to depict continents and oceans. Minor assembly. Includes one C battery that provides up to one year of operation. 11 1/4 H x 8 1/4 Diam. (8 lbs.).

Winner of the Popular Science Best of What's New award, this is the device that stores up to 160 electronic books and displays them on a patented screen that replicates the contrast of black ink on light-gray paper, resulting in high-contrast and a reading experience that is similar to a page in an actual book. The 6 screen uses E-Ink® technology, an award-winning electronic paper that reflects light like ordinary loose-leaf and is capable of maintaining displayed text without drawing electricity. Unlike typical backlit LCDs, the screen will not cause eye fatigue and it is visible in direct sunlight, allowing for convenient use outdoors. About the size of a paperback, but less than 1/2 thick, the unit only draws power when you press the page turn buttons, ensuring up to 7,500 page turns on a single charge, enough to read The Da Vinci Code 16 times before recharging is required. The device connects to a PC for purchasing and downloading electronic books from an online store with 20,000 titles, or digital texts can be uploaded using a memory card. The unit has an integrated music player that is compatible with unencrypted MP3 and AAC formats, and it supports Word documents, Adobe® PDFs, and JPEGs. Includes 192 MB of internal memory, PC software for transferring content, USB cable for recharging the battery and downloading content, and a protective cover. Text size enlarges at the touch of a button. Requires Windows® XP. 7 L x 5 W x 1/2 D. (9 oz.) We regret that this item cannot be shipped to destinations outside the United States.
This portable DVD player rests in the palm of your hand and easily fits into a jacket pocket, carry-on bag, or purse because it is only 1 thick.

Integrated anti-skip circuitry maintains uninterrupted viewing during turbulent flights or bumpy car rides, and it provides multiple viewing angles because it can be adjusted using its integrated stand. Compatible with all CDs and DVDs, this unit has two stereo speakers, and includes a headphone jack for private listening. Includes a remote control, a lithium-ion rechargeable battery pack that lasts up to three hours on a full charge, AC adapter, DC car adapter, and a carrying case.

WAS 349.95 NOW 174.95 This reversible 100% cashmere hooded sweater originates amidst the barrens of the Gobi Desert of Mongolia, where indigenous goats grow a coat of fine cashmere hairs, allowing them to thrive in the high-altitude winters.

Each sweater averages over one pound of pure cashmere, requiring the raw material of five cashmere goats to make a single sweater. With reversible zipper and two pockets. Specify Black/Gray or Blue/Khaki reversible. Dry clean only. Men's sizes M (40-42), L (44-46), or XL (46-48). (1 1/2 lbs.).
