A rather extraordinary Ferrari has come up for sale in a truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The Thomassima II was designed by coach-builder Tom Meade back in the ’60s and holds design cues similar to the Italian luxury automaker’s 330 P4 racecar of ’67. Only three cars were ever made; the 1962 model was destroyed during a flood in Florence in ’69, while the 1969 model sits in a Ferrari museum in Modena on loan, making this 1967 edition even more rare than it already is. Over the past seven years, the current owner oversaw an in-depth restoration of the special Ferrari to its original working condition including restored parts, a brand new paint job, and the same V12 engine as the 250 GTO.
This 1967 Ferrari Thomassima II is being listed on eBay for a hefty $9 million USD. The seller is currently accepting offers.

Ressence Type 1 V Genesis Watch
In celebration of its fifth anniversary, unconventional watch brand Ressence has released the limited “Genesis” edition of its Type 1 timepiece. With only five pieces produced, the watch features the company’s patented 107-part Ressence Orbital Convex System, in which the entire watch face rotates to tell the time and removes the crown in favor of winding the bottom plate of the case. In this particular version, however, the pieces are taken directly off the production line, with the grade 5 titanium watch case remaining unfinished, and the convex nickel silver watch face only receiving a sandblast treatment, eschewing SuperLuminova markings for slightly galvanized indications. Available in a 42mm case with a heavily modified automatic ETA and 36-hour power reserve, the Ressence Type 1 V Genesis watch can be bought for €18,750 EUR, or $21,058 USD.
