Random Places to Buy Luxury Watches
When you go grocery shopping do you think about buying luxury watches? Most likely it's not an item on your list; but there are indeed grocery stores that sell men's and women's luxury watches, along with vacuum cleaners, clothes and practically everything else under the sun. So, next question is, would you buy a luxury watch at such a random place? The answer must be "yes" otherwise such mega stores wouldn't sell them. In fact, not only are watches for sale, but so is jewelry, including...
Luxury Watch Companies Going "Live"
Luxury watch brands represent the one industry that has fought harder than any other against the Internet wave. Watches today are still made the same way they where hundreds of years ago; machines have not replaced people, and hours upon hours of work have not been reduced. Craftsmanship is still revered, and if you're going to be paying big bucks for a watch, you want to know that nothing about its process has been speeded up.
So really everything that the Internet represents, speed,...
End of Year Sales Looking Good / Top Watch Sold by Amazon
Reports are coming in from the National Jeweler that last minute sales of diamond jewelry and lower priced items were better than what retailers hoped for, even as compared to 2008. Consumers had a hard time spending more than $5,000 for an item, but were easily swayed if the item was below $3,000.
Stores in the Northeast said that they were very busy two days before Christmas, and even stayed open late on Christmas Eve to accommodate shoppers.
These last couple of days worth of sales can...
Luxury Watchmakers Hoping for Big Bonuses
Luxury watchmakers are hoping that they can put the year 2009 well behind them, and maybe even go out with an unexpected bang. Although most of us employed people will be lucky to get any end of the year, happy holiday bonuses this year, there are some groups, such as bankers and lawyers that will most likely still get theirs. These bonuses are what fuel purchases of luxury goods such as watches, especially expensive watches.
Bonuses allow one to purchase expensive goodies for themselves...
Not All Luxury Watches Are Worth What You Pay for Them
Many times, when were out shopping, we stumble upon something that we love and feel like we cant live without it (even though we may already have plenty of shoes, bags, watches or whatever the object beckoning you may be).
The psychological trick of something that costs a lot seems to work; the more it costs, the more we rationalize buying it to ourselves, especially if no one is there to talk us out of it! Of course, this trick works just as well with less expensive items but, when it...
So Far, So Good for Online Watches Sales
Both online retailers and brick and mortar stores count on holiday sales to boost their annual sales revenues, especially since the holidays occur at the end of the fiscal year. Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, is known as the biggest shopping day of the year, as consumers take advantage of mega deals.
This year, with the economy having plummeted and so many jobs being lost, it was up in the air whether such holidays sales would be as good as they have in years past. The answer so...
Getting What You Want: The "Cartier Discount"
Cartier, oh Cartier. I'm surprised that people haven't started naming their children after this French luxury goods brand. I say this only because the name Hermes has actually been bestowed upon a little boy born from a celebrity mom. Anyway, the name Cartier may not be good for a child, but it sure is good when it comes to watches.
Cartier watches are some of the most loved timepieces ever. The brand has a remarkably high reputation for perfection in design and production of all its watches...
TAG Heuer is Now a Luxury Phone Maker
Since 1860 TAG Heuer has been making luxury watches, specifically sporty looking chronographs, but lately it seems as though this Swiss company is making more luxury cellular phones than it is men's and women's watches.
In September of this year TAG released the Meridiist to not so rave reviews. There is a huge variety of cell phones to choose from and when it came to basic specs, the Meridiist didn't go above and beyond (except of course in looks and price tag). It came with a 1.9" QVGA main...

Back in Black
You probably started humming the AC/DC song as soon as you read this title, but today we're not talking heavy metal tunes, we're talking watches. Black watches.
Black is probably the most common color used in watchmaking. Black looks good with all metals, whether its stainless steel, gold (yellow, rose), or platinum and provides a striking contrast for diamonds or other precious gems or stones used on a watch. Plus the popularity of the black rubber strap on luxury watches. The list for these...
The History of Tissot Watches

President Obama and Men's Watches: His Quirky Style
President Obama is the man. He's always on point and entertaining to watch and listen to whether he's giving a press conference or appearing on a popular talk show like he did last night on the "Late Show" with Dave Letterman.
Although Obama has been on the "Late Show" five times before, this was his first appearance since becoming President, therefore everyone was tuned in to see what he would say and do. Of course he was cool and personable and I'm sure Letterman received some good ratings....
What is a Jewelry Watch?
? Ahh... this may be harder to answer once you think about it for a minute. I tried to "Google" it and there was no clear or direct explanation or definition. So, I am taking it upon myself to figure it out and tell you.
After some quick investigating it seems that jewelry watches come in many forms. The first and most obvious explanation is that any luxury watch that features diamonds or other precious stones anywhere on it (the face, bezel or strap) makes it a jewelry watch. Now, if the...
What Women Want: Men's Watches
Many luxury watch companies have started to re-think how they produce women's watches. In the past couple of years, style and fashion trends have changed, and women have opted for larger watches, causing the popularity and sales of smaller sized women's watches to fall.
Many luxury watch brands have either started to market their men's watches to women, or are adding female touches like extra design detail and precious stones to already popular men's watches. Take Rolex for example, they have...
Omega in the Sky with Diamonds
Omega always seems to be doing the right thing at the right time in order to get good press and promote both their established and new watch collections.

Until his passing at age 77 on August 25, 2009, the Senator, known as the "Lion of the Senate" had survived...
The Beauty & Intrigue of Blancpain Watches

Breitling Watches: How to Spot a Fake (Part One)
Breitling Watches: How to Spot a Fake (Part One) Statistics vary on what percentage of Breitling Watches sold online are fake, but most are in the 90% range.

However, there are certain things you can look for, even if you're not a watches expert. While some fakes are obvious, others are near perfect,...
A Brief History of the Luxury Watch Industry
The first ever mechanical time-keeping devices that could be worn by a person instead of mounted to a wall were called clock-watches. They possessed only a single hour hand, and had to be wound twice each day. And of course, they were notoriously inaccurate, with poor quality movement and heavy, unwieldy pieces.
The next stage of advancement was the ever-so-adorable pocket watch. In the 1600's, the upper crust was extraordinarily concerned with fashion, and apparently the pocket watch was...

Luxury Watch Market Trends
Despite international economic woes, the higher end luxury side of the watch business looks like it is in rather decent shape.
