Luxury Necessities: Best New Travel Accessories

Whether you’re treating a case of wanderlust or traveling for work, there’s no reason luxury should be a packing casualty.

These latest luxury necessities will get you comfortable and prepared for your next flight.

Omega Men’s Seamaster Professional Diver ($4,180)

Omega has been James Bond’s watch for the last two decades, and when Daniel Craig rebooted the franchise in 2006 with “Casino Royale,” it was with the Seamaster on his wrist.  If it’s good enough for the ultimate international spy, it’s good enough for a sales trip to Ypsilanti. 

Brunello Cucinelli Leather and Flannel Overnight Bag ($2,190)

Just because you’re making a last-minute trip doesn’t mean you can’t rush off in style.  Nearly every Cucinelli 2013 item seems to be made with the fashion-forward adventurer in mind. 

Sennheiser MM 450-X Travel ($450)

headphones

Noise cancellation, premium sound quality and no cords to tangle — that’s pretty standard stuff for headphones these days.   These ones also come with Bluetooth capability that allows you to take calls and the TalkThrough feature lets you have a conversation with the flight attendant without doffing your cans.  Just make sure the guy next to you doesn’t catch on to that function. 

Leica X2 ($1,995)

camera

This beauty lets you capture just how breathtaking your surroundings are without forcing to you to lug a large, scoliotic camera around your neck.  Designed to look like the machine your dad toted around on family road trips, this 12-ounce, pocket-sized shooter snaps images the old man couldn’t have dreamed of.

Globe-Trotter Centenary Collection Luggage ($723-1807)

Everything from the cabinetry to the goose-down pillows in this aluminum fortress on wheels was designed for travelers for whom camping means not having to give up a single convenience.  There’s enough room in front to sleep four comfortably, and the rear storage will fit a couple kayaks and loads of luggage.
