WATCH me unlock you Aston…

Hey Hype Beasts and Trendsters,

Ever wish you could open your $233k car with your watch? Um, no I’ve never wished that. But now that I’ve thought about it.. it sounds great!!! Aston Martin and Swiss watchmaker Jaeger-LeCoultre spent 18 long hard months of research/engineering and are finally introducing this option to their new Rapide 4-door sports car.

AMVOX2 Rapide Transponder key timepiece

Rapide 4-door sports car.

You may be thinking, how does this work?  Upscale Hype has the answers…

Upscale Hype says,

“By pressing “Open” between the 8 and 9 hour mark, the AMVOX2 Rapide Transponder key timepiece unlocks the Aston Martin Rapide, while touching “Close” between the 3 and 4 does the opposite and locks the car. This luxury watch also includes an added feature “Find Me”, which turns the head lamps on for better identification when you press both “Open” and “Close” at the same time. The “James Bond like” AMVOX2 Rapide Transponder watch can be yours after you satisfy the (approx. $33,800) price tag, but don’t forget, first you have to buy the car.

XOX,
Marissa Casey
