A stock Merc Unimog is a beast, but when you turn it into a practical overlander, its utility grows tremendously. This one is based on a 1987 Unimog U1300L and reworked by Wabi-sabi Overland in 2017. The camper that was added can sleep two in the double bed and seat four in the dinette. There’s also a kitchenette, toilet, solar panels that deliver 600W of power, side awning, winch, LED lighting, Marston Mat sand ladders, a roof rack, cargo boxes, and a rearview camera. Under the hood is 6.0 liter turbodiesel six mated to an 8-speed manual transmission, a dual-range transfer case, and portal axles with locking differentials. This monster just sold for over six figures on Bring-A-Trailer, and the owner will have no excuse to just stay at home and do nothing.

Vaer’s G5 Meridian Watch Looks and Feels Better Than the Five-Times More Expensive Option It Reminds You Of
Vaer has been one of our favorite watchmakers for as long as we can remember because they produce new, classic watches based on iconic designs. Case in point, the Vaer G5 Meridian watch you see here. This timepiece is a 1950s-inspired 20ATM automatic watch that’s USA-assembled, dual timezone, built with ocean-ready functionality, self-winding and the brand’s first true GMT (the latest version of their core dive watch design). What’s more, it pays homage to other watches that are incredibly more expensive or hard to come by whilst also adding new aspects that makes this Vaer G5 Meridian watch more desirable than the other options in our opinion.
