The menu has been only slightly altered to suit the modern palate. For example, a foie gras pate would have been served just before the dessert, which is not a custom followed today.

The banquet, last served on April 14 1912, includes foie gras pate, asparagus and watercress salad served with Champagne, and rose water and mint sorbet. Chef McClelland has sourced the ingredients from local suppliers. He and his wife Bernie were lucky enough to find an original wine list too. "In those days a different wine would have been served with each course, which isn't the case today. The wines served back then were European...so we can offer similar ones," said McClelland.

The nine-course experience recently launched at his establishment for the in the guest house's private dining room. "It was such a beautiful menu. There was so much attention to detail in the food that it really was a first-class feast," said Mr McClelland at the opening.

The letter was written by Adolphe Saafeld to his 'wifey' and is exceptional for its length and detailed account of what traveling aboard the Titanic was really like, from what he ate for lunch to a near collision with a ship called New York. It was written 5 days before the ship sank on April 15th, 1912 and was sold this past weekend to an unnamed British museum for £55,000. The auction of 350 lots at also included a set of keys from an officer who transferred off the ship before it set sail that sold for £54,000, and a photograph of Rosa Abbott, who was saved from the water after the Titanic sank, that went to a private collector for £35,000.

The takes the concept further to make the dial look inspired by the ship's engine room. There are piston-like elements on the highly detailed dial that look like a diorama. It is quite fun to inspect all the little details. The hands of the watch are meant to look like anchors. At 46mm wide, the case is still quite comfy although it is large. The polished 18k rose gold mixed with the oxidized steel makes for a very interesting look. Inside the watch is a Swiss Concepto made automatic tourbillon movement. Look to the back of the watch for another anchor - here done in gold as the rotor of the movement. Really an amazing talking piece and cool addition to a high-end collection. Price for this model is 169,000 Swiss Francs.

One of the more "interesting" options when it comes to acquring a high-end timepiece is to get something from . The collection that put them on the map was the Titanic DNA range of watches -and this Steampunk Tourbillon is the newest flagship for that collection. Available in gold (as seen above), the watch is mixed with oxidized steel that is meant to look like metal harvested from the actual Titanic. According to Romain Jerome, a small percentage of the metal is actually from the sunken Titanic ship. This is why they use the "Titanic DNA" term.
