Editor’s Picks: BBQ Tools, Coffee Machine and Electric Roadster

From the latest wristwatch from Jaeger-LeCoultre to a pair of sleek driving loafers from Scarosso, this is what we want this week…

Who’s ready for the sun-soaked days of May? This week, we’re setting ourselves up for summer — looking through the latest launches and product reveals to brighten our warm weeks to come.

We’ve turned up the volume on Marshall’s new wireless speaker, popped the cork on a bottle of crisp Mirabeau rosé and sharpened Blenheim Forge’s latest BBQ knife set. Elsewhere, we’re feeling the wind in our hair with a vintage-tinged drop-top roadster and getting into the saddle of Belgium’s best eBike. Discover this and more below…

Time will tell: Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Calendar Blue
