After Day Date, What else!?




 
 
Someone asks me after Day Date, what Rolex you like?
 
TBH, I have no hesitation to say GMT Master, if you can get a Vintage Pepsi, Blueberries!
 
If not, then Why not get a GMT Master II stick Dial Mint, or simply go for the latest Blue Black?
 
The early one may be good as a show piece but not for your everyday uses.

Be yourself and be a Style in 2016

Celebrating the new year eve at the train...in Tokyo
 
 
 
Shipping Santa Claus left behind back home in HK at new year eve.
 

I believe that by this time, may people are still drinking or sleeping home...after the New year eve celebration.


Many countries have their own traditions when it comes to welcoming the new year.

The first New York City celebration happened in 1904, nowadays billions watch the Times Square celebration worldwide of the ball drop…

Find out where revelers traditionally eat 12 green grapes at midnight in Spain, throw furniture out the window of South Africa, choose Your Underwear Color Carefully in Latin America. Offer White Flowers to the Goddess of the Living Ocean in Brazil, eat Lentils at Midnight in Chile, celebrate around a New Year’s Tree in Russia, folks jump into 6-degree Celsius water in Lake Constance In Konstanz, Germany, bang Bread Against the Wall in Ireland…

I don't see any tradition in China, we should have as for long History , we don't as I think as tradition, they are more about Lunar new year.

How about Hong Kong…Hundreds of thousand people go to TST area to watch the Fireworks sprung out up sky from Victoria harbor and then go to Lan Kwai Fong or Time Square to celebrate the COUNT DOWN…  How about Singapore!? I don't know, would you tell me?



The Legendary Nokia 8110
 

How about myself, as I have told you I had to buy me new watch if my finance could allow…that is one of the gift I had like to get it too.. But all my family members had not felt about my “need”.

However I felt my Daughter’s need, as her Iphone 6 was badly deformed probably she left under her butt while sleeping.. Her iPhone 6 looks the Nokia 8110!  Whilst all phones are completing on the thickness whereby trade off the structural rigidity…

Last night I went to buy the iphone 6S + in Pink gold for my daughter before the shop would close…

Time has changed, when I bought my TV set back in 1980, we expect to use it for 10 years.

Now… Will you stay with your TV for Ten years? That is one of the reasons why I don't spend much in on this electronic gadget… instead I spend money on this item that will “retain” it value over time…

Watches, Pen, furniture made of ebony, classic Vinyl…. Etc…

Well, in order to welcome the new year’s arrival, we go to do some changes

How does my Rolex look like!?
 
 

Being a Watch Lover myself, as I know I cannot afford, new go polish it to “NEW” That was why I polished my Rolex last night and I am happy to get to get as Pretty as 95% like New a Rolex… I will bring it out to SHOW to member of the HK Watch Fever Hi tea!
 

A GMT Master II Ref 16710
 

For watches, I think the most adorable Rolex is Black Blue GMT Master II, Pepsi is only available in White Gold, so more people is looking for Pepsi 16700, 16710 in the pre-owned.

The best if to get a Ref 16710 with 3186 Cal. stick dial in Mint Full set, guess how much? 

HKD$160,000 I think it is still a good price to keep it as investment item!

 


How about this weird dial GMT Master?
You may be shock as my dealer asks me for 1,000,000 pounds!  OMB!

Times runs by itself and we need to plan in these few days of the new year.

As for my job I have already submitted a 2016 Sales Quota, that is smaller than 2015 as I can see that the industry will not be as good as 2015! Lets’ see and I learn from History that that is no point to put up a high forecast that is un-reachable… Why not be a bit low profile to put a lower quota and we can meet it in this year… as a consequent result… no matter you reach it 130%, 100%, 80%., 50%, you get the same Bonus… ! That is the Sunset industry…you cannot out-perform without innovative products.

If you had an old girlfriend (old does not mean her age, but your relation with her) who curses you every day not able to buy a house, well, it is time to tell her…”Sorry, we need to depart in 2016”

Go find a girl friend who is happy to eat MacDonald Burger with you and live in your parents’ house whilst saving up money for your house… that is Sweet!

I learn that most of the younger people aged between 20-40 are dressing up to please the others.

Whilst people in the age group 40-60 people are dressing up more or less to please himself…

So I can say why not you try to dress always to please yourself.. no matter it is a pair of shoes, hand bag, watches, tie, outfit , jacket… choice of colour,

 
Be yourself and be A Style…  in 2016

I like this message which is the Whatsapp Icon from one of the Dutch Friend
 
 


TBH, I like it

How to Polish my Rolex Bracelet

Separate the watch bracelet

 Mask the area that is not going to be polished, do it section by section
 Clamp the Bracelet on s Plastic surface of the Vise
 Cut strip of the Silicon Carbide polishing paper 1200CW into width of the side section to be policed

Insert the sand paper onto the section of the bracelet and add drops of Jojoba oil and pull both end so of the sand paper lightly and steadily to Polish



Do the same on the snug of the watch, polish at an angle of 45 degrees steadily..
then you can see the fine polishing result...Watch looks like NEW


Friend of mine asked me to talk about on how I polish my Rolex watches ...

You just need a Sand paper of the finest grade, I used
1200CW Silicon Carbide Watch proof Polish paper… (5 Dollars) a few of jojoba oil, if not have use other light clear Lubrication oil,a vise... that is it.

Question is, whether you dare to use your Gold Rolex to try!?

To be honest, This is not my first design of Watch from HK Snob


I have been dreaming of make our own watch that likes no other…

That must have the following design specification:-

1.       Watch proof for 50M

2.       Automatic movement

3.       Second hand and date

4.       Thin enough to use it as dress watch and thick enough to stay strong.

5.       39MM diameter (best lucky number)

6.       Stainless Steel

7.       Very easy to read the time…

8.       Limited to 28 pcs

9.       Ballpark price estimated HKD$3,888

We have been making draft and design changes and I hope one way we can share with you, of course need to protect the design as of this moment.

If you are interested to invest on us and want to get one… pls contact us.

More information will be announced soon!

I am not a Voodooist


HK Snob
 
 
I am not Voodooist, I am just an ordinary man of 58, I am a sales for some of the equipment for Electronics Industry…, and I work with my team to break another sale record this year, after record high 2014.  So what!
 
… my salary adjustment is not enough for me to buy a plastic Swiss watch band!  Probably I should say a Silicone Swiss Watch band… Though I am very proud of myself… all my subordinate has master, Ph.D degree but for me I am just a college drop-out….
 
I had no Bachelor Degree, I still remember I went to my daughter school to Fcuk the teacher as the way she criticized my daughter home work. I told my daughter her, study does not mean everything… sometimes it may be your hurdle. I am not trying to saying not to study, once if you had chance, go study. But don't force yourself into it… your talent may not be in that area…..

I have a lot of good friend and a lot of hobby that keeps me busy… I do writing, painting, I make my own Analogue Audio Amplifier. Now I am doing Watch Polishing, I think it is good that I can polished my Rolex… Well, don't say you will not buy my Rolex as it is not polished by Rolex Service Centre… With the proper teaching and tools I can say My Polishing could be as perfect as you can get at Rolex Service Centre.,.. you know why, Because I care my watch…
 
 

Still have a bottle of Chateau Lafift 1990 left in my hotel room
 

I like old stuff as much as I Iove myself as I myself a Walking Antique…

I used to drink those top 5 plus Petrvs of course I cannot afford a bottle of DRC… that is a price of a Rolex Day Date…wait one day… Someone says once in your life you got to drink a bottle of Petrvs or even a bottle of DRC…  

Someone sends me a message now… “If you drink a glass of red wine, it is equivalent to go for gym workout for one hour”…. I love that message!

As I say also to friend, one day if you can afford but a Ferrari, go buy one.

Again with my pay system I have and my way to spend money faster than I earn… and I haven’t had one yet.

I remember the other day went to Kowloon Bay to collect a Rolex from friend, I saw an eye catching vintage Ferrari the number plate is “DAYTONA” a man of 50. He is so relaxing sitting in his horse… I showed my Thumb up to him as a Salute!


That is real LIFE….

On the other hand. I know people who earns USD$800 a hour, but he wears a USD$300 watch and keeps a pair of cheap out trended shoes… a ShenZhen White Box Class B traveler bag of Great French maker look  … but he put 60% of his money into his real estate. Well, he enjoys what he has being watching the figure of his real estate go up every day … But does he really enjoy what he had been working hard for?

I mean the quality of life... he might have 10X the income of the “Daytona” man, but I think the Daytona man is 10X happier than that!

Money is not so important in some case when you have… but in my case, money is too important as I have too little…

I love watches, I love Rolex, I had been talking to on Courney (UK Watch Dealer) who is amazed to see how DD price went up in HK…. Well I told me… I should feel guilty about it. As from all people know that I put as much as 50% my effort talking about Day Date on my blog… I love DD, and I want to introduce it to watch lovers… one young chap aged 27 had come to me saying that I am the bad guys that turned him from a Sport Rolex into Day Date… well, he said that is a nice watch for most of his occasion… So I talked to him WHY NOT…?

Now I even obsessed onto this Samsung Note…, I am planning to upgrade with the new Apple iPAD with PEN! Another new year “PEN”

Make one thing you need as part of your encouragement.

Kuala Lumpur, another great place for your Watch purchase within these few days!


A happy Wstch Fan who bought this APRO Ref 15400 ST.OO.1220ST.01


Another great finding for places that you can get what you want for the whole year...

This is AP Royal Oak stainless steel, well, guess how much you can buy it with?

HK$125,000?

HK$110,000?

HK$98,000?

No

Watch...

After HK, Japan, now Malaysia, since the depreciation of Rangit, This Audemars Piguet Royal Oak (APRO) is having a price tag of RM61,500.

After all, they give you another 9% discount and final price went down to Rm 55,000.

And you can reclaim the tax at K.L Airport 4%, so the final purchase price you pay for this Watch is HK$95,000 approx. using your card.

They will increase price approx. 8% on y 1 Jan 2016, so still you have time to go for there for other Chrono, or Gold APRO...

Hurry up if you still have some budget allow for this years.
