Fender Iron Maiden Collection

Fifty years ago, a band formed that would go on to become one of the most influential heavy metal outfits of all time. Now, to celebrate the band’s monumental half-century anniversary, Fender has launched a trio of limited-edition Iron Maiden guitars. Inspired by guitarists Dave Murray, Janick Gers and bassist Steve Harris, these surprisingly understated instruments are as stunning as they are well-appointed, boasting elements like Floyd Rose tremolos, Seymour Duncan pickups, rosewood fingerboards and much, much more.

This anorak features a relaxed fit and is packable, which makes it a versatile option for climbing, camping, road tripping or anything else you have on the docket.

Ford Mustang FP800S Bronze Magneride Package Concept

Along with a 3.0-liter Whipple supercharger, it also sports an air/oil separator, some upgraded halfshafts, as well as a Street Lowering Kit tuned specifically for MagneRide suspension.

Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold

Samsung’s Galaxy Z TriFold is the company’s first three-panel smartphone — that’s right, before Apple could introduce a foldable, Samsung is coming out with a tri-fold. When folded, the TriFold has a single 6.5-inch screen and promises to work (and feel) like a Galaxy S25. But when opened up, the three screens combine to make one giant 10-inch display, or you can have each of the three screens running separate, portrait-sized apps. As for cameras, it has a flagship-worthy triple-camera system similar to the brand’s Galaxy S25 Ultra. It costs $2,900 and goes on sale in the US on January 30th.

Breguet Classique Répétition Minutes 7365

Released in the shadow of Breguet’s groundbreaking Expérimentale 1 to close out Breguet’s 250th Anniversary celebration, the Classique Répétition Minutes 7365 stands alone as the maison’s first-ever water-resistant minute repeater. Utilizing a brand-new movement with a higher beat rate and power reserve than previous Breguet minute repeaters, the hand-cranker boasts an impressive stated accuracy of +/-2 seconds per day and runs for 75 hours when fully wound. The case and movement are both in the brand’s proprietary Breguet Gold alloy, with the former using the design language that debuted earlier in 2025 on the acclaimed Classique Souscription. Lastly, there’s the gorgeous dial, which is made of white gold and coated with Bleu de France enamel. The 30m-water-resistant watch is limited to just 25 pieces.

The 2025 TJB Throwflake

In the spirit of the season, The James Brand brings back one of its cleverest products for a seventh time. Made of stainless steel and boasting six legitimately sharp points, the Throwflake is, in the brand’s words “50% holiday-season decoration, 50% shuriken (or “ninja star”) and 100% awesome.” For easy hanging, the Santa Claus Red Paracord is included.

Sony Alpha 7 V

Sony just dropped what could be its most important mirrorless camera of the year: the all-new fifth-generation A7 V. Arriving as the first of many next-gen Alpha 7 mirrorless cameras, the latest A7 V paves the way thanks to an all-new, partially-stacked 33-megapixel Exmor RS CMOS sensor, which takes from the pages of Sony’s game-changing global shutter in the A9 III. It also bundles Sony’s latest BIONZ XR2 processor featuring AI technology, allowing for improved autofocus performance, faster high-speed continuous shooting, better color accuracy and video recording functionality.
