52’ Rivale Palm Beach

52’ Rivale Palm Beach (special edition for US)
Of all the members of the Riva family, this is the yacht whose character, as its name suggests, is the most strong and heroic. Indeed, the Rivale’s refined wood and quality textiles give its unique, sharp lines a welcoming feel. The interior design features large cabins, a comfortable dining-area and a cockpit which satisfies all demands for outdoor living, as well as one of the largest garages (which stores a 3.2 meter tender) in its category.
For 2009, Riva has created a version of the boat dedicated specifically to the American market, using special materials and colors elegantly fused into an even more precious example of the Rivale, whose name refers to one of the most exclusive American beach locations: Palm Beach.
The Rivale Palm Beach was created as the ultimate answer to the desires of the American owner: a boat offering plenty of style and elegance without sacrificing comfort. The boat’s deck and hull, in brand-new desert sand, are very special in this version thanks to the Roman bronze details on the dashboard and on the signal mast. This unique design evokes the image of a shark’s flipper. Inside the cabins, the walls and furniture are made of luminous elm, embellished with topstitched natural-color leather, which produces a chromatic opposition of soft and dark against the Roman Bronze lacquering.
This unrivaled yacht is the clear choice for owners who wish to enjoy living an adventurous life at sea in utter comfort and privacy, taking full advantage of the craft’s signature reliability and usability. The Rivale sustains the Riva yacht philosophy: personality, style, elegance and constant innovation. The size of the yacht permits the owner to man and enjoy his craft firsthand, granting also enough space for two more guest cabins equipped with twin beds and a day head in addition to the master cabin, located at the bow with an en suite bathroom.
The Rivale is equipped with two 1100-horsepower Man engines, and gives an exceptionally spirited performance: a top speed of 40 knots and an autonomy of 260 miles at cruising speed (in the 1100 horsepower version).

68’ Ego Super

Presenting herself as the ultimate blend of design, comfort, performance and reliability, 68’ Ego Super is the luxurious evolution of the Riva world.
The new Ego Super has the same gorgeous lines that led to the original 68’ Ego winning three of the most prestigious awards in the nautical world: European Powerboat of the Year; the Millennium Yacht Design Award and Croatian Powerboat of the Year.
Equipped with a new relaxation area in the bow,, in fact, a teak table and another large sofa accommodate up to six people, creating an open-air salon that can also be protected against the sun’s rays with an innovative electric awning, developed exclusively for Riva.
The 68’ Ego Super is also equipped with the PLC technology-based system Gi8, chosen specifically for its compatibility with sportier boat models. Gi8 is applied to the entire set of on-board systems and controls, and monitors all services.
This yacht is furnished with 1 master cabin, 1 VIP room all with en-suite bathrooms in addition to a 1 twin-bedded guest cabin and an independent crew cabin.
The performance, powered by twin MAN 1550 hp Common Rail engines, brings the boat to a cruising speed of 34 knots and top speed of 38 knots, with inimitable comfort and a 260 mile range at cruising speed.

75’ Venere Newport Collection (special edition for US)

The waves of the ocean seem to have been made especially to lap at the sides of the Venere’s hull. This soft and lovely model is a true Venus. This special-edition of 75’ Venere Newport Collection is in a canaletto-walnut hue designed exclusively for the American market, featuring a range of innovative design solutions, from the vast windows in the cabins on the lower deck, to the stern opening out onto a spacious swim platform that is ideal for sunbathing or practicing water sports.
The new Riva flybridge, designed for maximum space and comfort, features a luxurious six-seater sofa as well as an awning that opens using a high-tech electro-hydraulic system. The gracefully curved windscreen, made of grey metal and anthracite-colored fiberglass, shades the sundeck and provides passengers with excellent wind protection. The innovative interior design features a striking tri-color layout, with canaletto walnut walls and furniture, classic Riva cream lacquering, and dark brown leather inserts, creating a warm, cozy atmosphere.
The lower deck’s expansive main cabin, which spans the yacht’s width, has a study area, vanity unit with foldaway pouf, 30” LCD television monitor, and elegant walk-in wardrobe. Each cabin has direct access to an en-suite bathroom.
The utmost care has been taken over these “mini-suites” and the result is a first-class yacht, 23 meters of indisputable style and a masterpiece of modern design and luxury.
Driven by two MTU ten cylinder 1524 Mhp engines, the goddess of the Riva Olympus offers excellent standards and a high performance, reaching a top speed of 32 knots and a range of 300 miles at cruising speed.
More aggressive than that of any other fly, the Riva 75’ Venere features a modern line, thus appealing to a younger clientele, while still confirming the traditional, timeless beauty of all Riva yachts.

The new Master Grande Tradition line from Jaeger-LeCoultre

In 2009, the Grande Maison in the Vallée de Joux is unveiling some extraordinary timepieces embodying an original symbiosis between the technological breakthroughs of the 21st century and a tribute paid to the finest watchmaking traditions. The design and creation of such a masterpiece naturally depends on the authentic mastery of the intricacies of fine watchmaking, a mastery that Jaeger-LeCoultre has been cultivating for 176 years. The new line is distinguished by distinctive aesthetics and the joint presence on each model of two complications interpreted in a manner that is at once historical and innovative. The two first watch creations in the Master Grande Tradition collection feature combinations of functions that are new to the Manufacture: on the one hand, the first tourbillon associated with a perpetual calendar; and on the other, the first minute repeater with a two-week power reserve allied with a regulator display. Moreover, this new line will welcome the first ever silicon escapement from the Grande Maison, stemming from the research undertaken in the Jaeger-LeCoultre laboratories and aiming to further enhance the performances of this complicated timepiece. This major innovation will initially enrich the yellow gold limited editions only. The undeniable gain in precision will be certified by a new “1000 Hours Chrono” label developed by Jaeger-LeCoultre.
