好色的勞力士

勞力士每年都攪攪新意思。而今年一口氣推出五款新錶。

而蓝色似乎喺勞力士今年專注的顏色。

年初的GMT MASTER色 II BLUE BLACK model ref 116710BLNR非常渴市，每月每店只配售二隻。無折頭。只有一錶店提供九五折。

七月中到港SeaDweller 4000就叫好不叫座。只有三兩小貓問價而矣，大概因為當時訂價是嚇人的$78,000! 價格比潛水Submariner 多$16,700, 而只 比Deepsea低$3,700;而後來便知道DeepSea 將大幅加價。

八月頭傳聞的Milgauss 藍面己到，有九五折。真錶比相片靚得多多聲!

而八月四日勞力士在網站站發報2014 DeepSea 藍黑面相片，錶面上半部蓝色，下半部黑色!都幾有創意，DeepSea 能下潛12,000呎，我估潛得深看不到光，所以錶面下半部是黑色的。

八月十八日全港勞力士都有八款錶全面加價，加幅是2.9巴仙到6.7巴仙左右，這是2011年九月到現在第一次加價。請參考付表。

另外116000今年出了三種新色:灰，紫和 金棕色。似乎紫色格外另人喜愛。貨源稀少。

很多人問我買那一隻最好?我問好的意思是"好用"? "好扺"?一或好"投資"?

計我話"好用"是 GMT Master II,

"好靚"是116000 紫色,

好"投資"大可能是DeepSea,

因為多年來DeepSea黑沉沉的錶面有一些人看厭了。但如果你平時拿去戴的話。但當考慮一個5.7兩(216.5grams)重的錶會不會太重呢?

除非你拿去釣魚台潛下去找日本人的足跡，或去濟洲岛扮海女潛水攞海帶。

我建議買Submariner，它真的是最”實用”。而Submariner 新價是$63,900, 仍然比新價格九月中到逽的DeepSea$90,500平宜$26,600! 差不多可以買多人隻116000比你的老友或知己矣!

五支火柴

五六十年代中國內地資訊並未發達，一般人事手有多手錶大都是內地產品，吉林，中山，南京，上海，杭州是國內有些名氣的，牌子是以當時國營錶廠命名，當時一隻上海十七石上鍊手錶是大約四十圓，那是一個月的普通工人一每月的工資。偶爾看見一些北上的港澳人仕手上地的勞力士，有一普遍稱謂"五支火柴"。

七十年代當時一隻Date Just 1601 大約是一千二百港元。

The Ultimate Journey out to the Space!

  

When one was about to ask his wife to give me money to buy a preowned Ferrari 360 yellow with just 36,000KM. with HKD$650,000!, Friend of mine told him his mate had just changed a new Lambor Aventator, he showed the picture on his Iphone4, well, It was a fantastic car, of course, no question about it! How about a Pagani Huayra….

It could not be coming into an end as there are new model of Human’s most expensive Toy for people who like SPEED every years on road.

Whatever car you are driving could not possible be comparable to the experience to be on Virgin Galactic flight into the space.  It could blow off 100,000 litres of fuel to move up high enough to get rid of the Earth’s Gravitational force and spin you out the space with an acceleration of 15G.

Imagine that could be once in life time experience and not too many people could afford to pay for the ticket… I cannot. Not been the ticket going to New Mexico’s departure station in economy class.

I just thought to myself what is the best watch the passenger should wear?

GMT MASTER II? I think that is no use as we don't know how we should set the 2^nd time zone!

Submariner? Day Date? No, I think only one watch a Daytona as you can measure only the flying time and it may be the only watch that it still could be function normally after the Flight….

Oh HK Snob, dream on…

Robin Williams died on Monday 11 August at home.

When I landed Manila this morning, just had a chance to pick up tis news!

I am sad as Robin is one of my favourite actors, I still remember I watch the movie Good Morning Vietnam (1987)  and the later one The Bicentennial Man (1999).

These are two Robin’s movies I cannot forget, the first one is comedy with a finale episode of those Bombing Saigoon killing famers, civilians at same time Louis Armstrong Sings “What a Beautiful World”…very touching.  I am sure this sentimental scene make more people knows about this fabulous song of Louis Armstrong. The picture was mostly shot in Bangkok instead of Vietnam, ranked 4^th highest grossing film in 1987. Chintara Sukapatana is very pretty in the Movie!
Similarly the beautiful song also appears in the last two minutes of the movie "Madeline".

As for the Bicentennial man, the story was touching as if you see you beloved one getting old and died in your arms… That keep telling us to pay attention to those who you love, care for your friends and relatives.

Robin dies at age of 63, this is a loss of those who loves him.
