Original Penguin ‘Pimps’ for 50th

Original Penguin celebrates its 50th with a “Pimp” watchEschewing the usual convertible Boxter S or a little nip-tuck, the Original Penguin is celebrating 50 years with its own version of a mid-life crisis — a limited-edition "Pimp" watch. Inspired by James Bond's digital timepiece in the opening scene of "Live and Let Die," the gold-plated accessory comes numbered and inscripted on the back. It even has a flash ticker across the face that reads, "Paying a small price for a lot of attention." $ 399, penguinclothing.com
