Tom AustinThere is a peculiar thing that happens to great design when it disappears. At first, people move on. A few years pass, tastes change, old photographs start looking strangely contemporary, and eventually what once seemed tied to a particular moment begins to make sense all over again. Somewhere along the way, indifference turns into nostalgia, nostalgia becomes appreciation, and everybody starts wondering why a watch like the Cartier Roadster disappeared in the first place.
The Roadster has travelled that exact path. Introduced in 2002 and discontinued around a decade later, it spent years occupying an unusual corner of the Cartier catalogue. Its muscular proportions, automotive references and unmistakably early-2000s confidence made it easy to associate with the period in which it was created. Fourteen years after its departure, the Roadster has returned to a watch landscape that looks very different, and time away has made its qualities considerably easier to appreciate. In 2026, Cartier may have just brought its best sports watch back from the dead.

Pre-Scout: Top guns, depth cast, and a Mammoth test for red-hot Edmonton Oilers - Oilers Nation
If this start to the Edmonton Oilers season were a Tom Cruise movie, it would be Top Gun. Sitting first in the NHL in points percentage and winning five in a row, the Oilers’ top guns have had the need — the need for speed. It’s fresh and doesn’t feel like a sequel, as a familiar cast has avoided their October Groundhog Day, the movie Oilers fans have watched this team play like déjà vu. One has to think the extended off-season break has helped the leaders in Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Evan Bouchard, and Mattias Ekholm begin so strongly, but their combined attention to detail defensively is noticeable to the naked eye. The known quantities pulling off the performances of a lifetime. Box office draws delivering. But the overall style in which Edmonton is winning these games, except for Vancouver, which I’m willing to chalk up as pre-season extended hockey, is decidedly uncinematic. Yes, the Oilers’ top line is dominating, but it’s not always pretty when they’re off the ice. The cast listed in minuscule font on the poster are trading standout performances and are giving Oilers fans some legitimate optimism.

Tesla reveals next generation flying Roadster sports EV with SpaceX thrusters - LiveNOW from FOX
Published October 15, 2026 11:29 PM EDT article The Tesla Roadster can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in under one second and can reach a top speed of over 230 mph, CEO Elon Musk said. (Photo: Tesla) Automaker Tesla demonstrated a redesigned roadster Thursday that can drive upside down on an inverted ramp, turn in midair and land using built-in thrusters. It also used its rockets to fly over a line of parked vehicles. The backstory: It was a major upgrade to the next-generation version of its electric sports car that Tesla first showed nine years ago with a plan to start production in 2028, Reuters reported. Tesla demonstrated a redesigned roadster Thursday that can drive upside down on an inverted ramp, turn in mid-air and land using built-in thrusters. (Photo: Tesla) The redesigned vehicle, developed with CEO Elon Musk’s SpaceX, would accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in less than a second, which he says is "the least interesting part," given the collaboration with SpaceX. "Advanced cold-gas thrusters use all-electric actuators to offer precise thrust, completing micro adjustments within a fraction of a second. This helps stabilize the vehicle in flight," Tesla’s website states.
