Good product, should come predecorated

I bought the Relaxman Relaxation Capsule on an impulse, having always loved small, dark enclosures and general, uncomfortable confinement, as well as the feeling of waking up after drinking
too much and not remembering where I am. I was far from disappointed with the product (except for a mix-up in shipping driving me to attempt my own Cardboard Relaxation Unit out of frustrated excitement), but I must admit that it came with unintended consequences, as I am now living in my Relaxman Relaxation Capsule. I quickly ran out of “wall” space, but it now has all the familiarities my former home had, thanks to all the pictures of Steve Buscemi I’ve aesthetically placed within my field of vision to give myself strength in these trying (but relaxing) times.

Many Uses

I received one of these capsules as a gag gift in a white elephant game this past Christmas. I was pretty upset I was stuck with the Relaxation Capsule instead of the highly-desired Barry Manilow cassette tape collection (I was only two people away from getting the collection, but it was already traded twice!). When I got the relaxation capsule into our backyard, I thought I’d give it a try. I was amazed out how, after just 49 minutes in the capsule, I had totally forgot about the Barry Manilow cassette collection. I was so impressed, I bought a few more capsules for the rest of the family. I really like the fact that the locking mechanism is reversible; I can lock myself inside to keep others out, or I can lock my kids inside when I want to relax on the couch to watch my soaps on TV. I have also learned that a hacksaw, some bicycle tires, and a decent amount of duct tape and coat hangers turns the capsule into a great sidecar on a motorcycle or even a slick-looking go-cart. Just make sure your window you cut out is large enough to see in the blind spots. I almost sent an old man to his capsule 8 feet under when I nearly T-boned his station wagon the other day. I would recommend the Relaxman Relaxation Capsule to anyone looking for…uhh…relaxation.

Great product for weekend getaways

This capsule has answered all of our babysitting needs. If you are like us, it is hard to find a babysitter for your rotten mongrels. Not only do they defecate on the floors, but their language is atrocious. With this fantastic product, me and the Mrs. can toss the rug rats in the capsule and go about our weekend jet setting. Don’t let your kids hold you back anymore. This is well worthy of the 5 stars.

Zenith Tourbillon Titanium Chronograph Watch

3.7 out of 5 stars

Name:
     
Zenith Men’s 96.0529.4035/51.M Defy Xtreme Tourbillon Titanium Chronograph Watch

ASIN:
     B001K3IXW8

Price:
     
$81,779.99

An extreme timepiece that defies the imagination and pushes the boundaries of luxurious style. Featuring solid but lightweight titanium construction and high-end features such as automatic movement, hesalite crystal, and a deployment clasp place this watch in the all-time pantheon of prestigious timepieces.

Zenith was created in 1865 by Georges Favre-Jacot, who, at age 22, was one of the first watchmakers to understand the importance of the principle of interchangeable parts. It’s said that one night after Jacot finished a movement he considered almost perfection, he went out and looked at the stars, feeling them almost speak to him. He saw the gigantic constellation turning around the polestar, similar in the complexity to the movements of a watch’s pivots and wheels on their axes. He decided then to call his new movement and its manufacture after the word that designates the highest point in the universe, Zenith. The star was adopted as a brand symbol, as it is still today. By the time Jacot stopped working in 1929, Zenith had made watch history, winning grand prix medals for timekeeping precision at international expositions in Geneva, Paris, Barcelona, and Neuchâtel. In 1969, the company gained renown for introducing the world’s first automatic chronograph movement, the El Primero. Oscillating at 36,000 alternations per hour, the El Primero was able to measure short intervals
to a tenth of a second, an unsurpassed world record. In 1995, Zenith launched a new generation of ultra-thin chronographs, the Elite, recently voted best mechanical movement by the professional press. Since its beginning, Zenith has been recognized with more than 1,565 first-observatory prizes in chronometry, making it the Swiss brand most rewarded for precision.
