Rolex Concept Phone Coming from LG?

Friday, July 17th, 2009

I doubt that they make him – Rolex knows for step bastardize their mark – but it is rather interesting.

You will have to trust me on this one, because one did not allow me to take photographs inside the moving part of the demonstration of the undercarriage. But a wall has a posting of the cellphones of concept, including a model which is basically a telephone with a observe-face of Rolex incorporated in the envelope.

Buscum Ducis Watches Redux: An interview with 21-year old founder Sven van der Zande

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

Sven van der Zande de Buscum Ducis is young contractor in the best way. Taking the risk, while proposing a product and businesses established on the idealism and the customer. Although he denies the idealism, its hearth on the customer sends another message in one moment when the companies raflent of old names for the sale.

To 21, it was in the businesses during a few years already, but chose to set up its own company of watch. _ it say, I like conceive and make a brainstorm in my serviceable time disponible and me have always think that it there be only very few of company in the world which himself concentrate really on a concept, be which it that I go do, I go design a watch with the entry of my customer to make this watch also perfect that it can be, with much of service with customer personal. What means that the purchase of the watch and the service is after as personal as it obtains. All for low prices then your average watch with these characteristics.

Although not a clock and watch maker in oneself, he is an originator and just felt as (it) due to make a watch which was however accessible elegant with some from the devices at end high that part of large houses A. Sven chose to start with quartz movements of Ronda for some reasons. Still, quoting it, the movement is accessible, reliable and easily reparable should have to be there. Easily reparable the saute with me as something that many people would not consider at the beginning. It is a good thing however, suggesting that it is put more thought in its watches than a company of watch of mode. It continued to say, there will be the automatic movements in the future, I did not decide yet, I just thought that this [Ronda] was a nice manner to start because it is a reliable movement of quality.

Its philosophy of businesses is enough feast your customers and they will treat you enough and will employ direct marketing to bring back costs for the customer. Is its Web site for what it aimed, as the watch. Easily readable, simple and rememberable.

Once required what a little the watch it did not use he no watch of large-house really says (a steel of the TW: Which is vigorous because the hell and always functions per hour and a watch of Martina of., although I for one Will bread, I would be economy like just simplicity. The steel model and of Will bread TW appear in its design, and its taste for large, simple watches. And while the sight fades with the age, I develop an appreciation for this model.

I wait with interest to see his work carries out me. Although I will usually seek a smaller watch, the simplicity of its design has to go much for it. It is easy for a dial to become too occupied, and Sven did not fall into this trap. The Sven good luck, and await us with interest more your designs!

Are Watchmakers Doomed?

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

The world where a clock and watch maker experienced and endowed adjusts himself, class, of the polishes, airs, something which were conceived with more `human, true tolerances of world.

The Rarest Seiko of All

Friday, July 10th, 2009

Make confiancemoi, people. This Seiko is not in value $1.000 or $3.800. It is standard Frankenseiko with a single face. I do not include/understand what this type tries to draw, but the forum of Seiko saw this type jumping to the top many and many times. Very strange.

The shit as this made me the stop using eBay.

Chinese Space Watch: Close But No Cigar

Monday, July 6th, 2009

As I reiterate constantly, China must obtain on the ball when it comes to the clock industry. Here a step in the right direction. Fitya is the watch used by one of the proper cosmonauts of China. It will see a movement of finished Miyota and some/under-the-top which grates on the eye. Nice quality, however.

Since the Omega Speedmaster gained the statute of worship to be the watch certified by NASA for the Apollo program, and to be the first and only the watch on the moon, it is very desirable by collectors for any model which was in space. Obviously the manufacturers know this, and often employ the fact like argument to sell more watches, and raise the statute and the popularity of the mark.

The same applies to the company of Fiyta. They do not sell their watches apart from China insofar as I know, but I was enough lucky to be able to select upwards during one of my halts with Changha. It was on sale in the merchant of watch of main street which sold several of the Swiss famous brands, and Fiyta was certainly one of the cheaper watches with 700RMB which has at this time equalized about US$200.
