Many people keep their valuables in a safe. But only a few can say they keep their valuables in a Bentley.
Safe manufacturer Stockinger has partnered with Bentley and its design team in Crewe, England, to produce exclusive and beautiful safes.
Only 400 of the Stockinger for Bentley safes will be made, in two forms--the Arnage and the Continental.
The Arnage is made for watch collectors and features a silent, watch winding mechanism to keep unworn watches in time.
The Continental is a jewelry safe. It has six different trays to store rings and necklaces.
The safes can be customized and are available in any of Bentley’s colors. They also offer 10 choices of interior leather and three choices of wood veneer panels.
Each Stockinger safe is built in an 18-stage process which takes several weeks. The safe is primed, painted and sanded, then finished with a thick layer of carnauba wax to add depth to the outer surface.
Both safes are just less than four feet tall, 16 inches deep and 22 inches wide. The safes have a multiwall construction and can be connected to any alarm system. The Stocktronic locking system can even be programmed to trip a silent alarm, which can be set off a number of ways for in-home safety.
All Stockinger safes have an emergency-bolt mechanism, which locks the safe if an attempt is made to open it by force.
Exclusivity isn’t cheap. The Arnage safe costs slightly more than $180,000, while the Continental safe retails for about $168,000.
