When people think of Volvo estate cars, the image that generally comes to mind is of the large, practical yet somewhat unexciting models of the 80s and 90s. However, there was a time when Volvo manufactured an elegant, cool estate car known as the P1800 ES. A graceful variant of the curvy P1800 sports cars, it was the sleek face of Volvo in a past era. Now, Autoforma, Niels de Roij and Volvo Lotte, all hailing from the Netherlands, revive the 50-year-old model in a fresh, attractive and even cooler version - the Norrsken P1800 ES.
The De Rijke & Co.’s Turini Watch pushes the boundary of watch design, merging the hardiness of off-road materials with the charm of enamel dial artistry. This Dutch brand is known for its playful touch that doesn’t sacrifice the sense of luxurious sophistication, as can be seen in previous Amalfi rotating-case driver’s watches. With their 2026 release however, De Rijke has stepped away from the laid-back aura of the Italian Riviera to explore more bracing landscapes.
The Turini, Sahara, and Amazon models reflect this shift, raising the brand’s ability to interweave aristocratic whimsy with modern robustness. The Turini version, boasting a satin-finish white ceramic case and a tropic strap, is a testament to this blend. An elaborate champlevé enamel dial along with designs by celebrated automotive artist, Guy Allen, adds a dash of exciting complexity.
