Souped-up Safes

The GrandCircle Offers Opulent Storage for Your Valuables

— September 28, 2011 — Luxury
Renowned German safe-maker Dottling recently released its latest and most decadent safes known as The GrandCircle. This over-the-top safety deposit box comes outfitted with watch winders, pendulum clock, bar, a cigar humidor and a high-end sound system. It is essentially the Swiss Army Knife of opulence.

The beast of a safe measures a staggering two-meters high. It was constructed using several varieties of glossy lacquered wood accented with stingray tail skin and rhodium-plated metal components. The safe boasts the smallest sub-woofer in the world supported by four amplifiers and a satellite loudspeaker. The sound system can also be controlled through your iPhone or iPod.

The impressive display of clockwork is comprised of 52 individually controllable watch winders encompassing a custom-made Naeschke pendulum clock with a power-reserve mechanism. The cigar humidor was made using cedar wood, and the lush mini-bar allows you to get your drink on in the lap of luxury.

Priced on request, The GrandCircle is sure to cost you a small fortune. If you do decide to take the plunge, try to make sure you have some money left to fulfill the safe's original purpose.
