Diesel Black Gold's Samsung Gear S
Apple raised eyebrows when they recruited executives from luxury brands Burberry and Yves Saint Laurent for various positions. Although it's fairly common for tech brands to pair up with luxury brands, this was the first, or at least most publicized, instance of a tech brand actually hiring from the fashion sector.
Hot on the heels of Apple's announcement of the Apple Watch, Samsung, who was first to market with their smartwatch (excluding Pebble), just announced a collaboration with Diesel Black Gold to create a special collection of their Samsung Gear S watch. Diesel isn't known for elegant reticence and the watches have plenty of that Diesel attitude with leather and metal details on a cuff-like band.
The watch isn't available just yet, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out that this bad boy will go on sale right before the Apple Watch.
