Concord

Concord was Founded in 1908 in Biel Switzerland the brand was created to design watches with the American market in mind. Concord has had a few innovations such as the first company to make a wristwatch made of coins. In 1979 they had a major breakthrough with the invention of the Delirium Watch which was the thinnest watch ever made at the time at 1.98 mm thick. They subsequently released a delirium 2 which was even thinner at 1.5 mm. I had once adored Concord as I saw such thin watch like the blade of a razor! Now the new Concord is not lonely at all. It is a outlook mixed with Hubort and AP... See this one! I think the older one looks more classic and beautiful.


Which one is more elegant!? I think the Delirium!

Omega

Omega was once had a better reputation than Rolex in Hong Kong in the 60's. As they had a very good quality in their Seamaster Constellation series. Not soon later, Rolex came up with a good promotion programme such that it was being recognized as branded watch than Omega. Later on those pawnshop had a high acceptance value on all Rolex. Since the 70's Rolex had overtaken what Omega had. Nowadays, watch collectors are still lookinng for those Constellations of Omega, the Gold one would be a good collectible items.
The new Omega is still able to maintained a very good quality, I doubt as I had two Omega Seamaster limited edition, both had problem in running without any stoppage. So I decided to give it to freinds.

See t he attached Omega, I did not expect that they do not have good surface polishing on the chamfer. Why? This is a watch for more than HKD500,000.00!

A Limited Cartier Pasha Lady



Well, this is a rare colour "Deep Purple"! Woman are the lucky creature that can have this kind of beautiful watch...and passionate colour.

Auto, durable, all day wearing, won't feel disgrace for such a watch... nice design with the right size!!! Not too exaggerating! A reflection of sportive, outgoing characters, best for a tall and slim woman...

I am trying to find one for my She4th....

Hmmm, poor Snob....! Don't think so as I am a broke!

The Magic and Charisma of Daytona




If you ask me once more, if I had money to buy just one watch for my life, no question, I would prefer Daytona... As it is durable, accurate, solid build, functional and beautiful, Massive if that is made of Gold. One drawback of Daytona is not having any Day display!

I may not like stainless steel as there are 57% of this watch in Hong Kong are fake... Gold one, if you can make fake one, I think the only choice is o for Gold plating say 20 microns.... that is a high cost for them to back off..... So 97.3% of the gold Rolex in this City is genuine! Why Not? Also I do not like Ceramic, Titanium, Alumina, and mica mixed with ceramic as the basic watch material, well, that is something cheapo abundant on earth....Only Precious metal is my favourite preference as Patinuum, Pink Gold, White Gold, yellow gold, Stainless steel.

This is a watch I just bought 2 hours ago! It is accuracte, running at +2 seconds per day on my auto winding machine... We will see how it goes on my wrist!

Cartier watch has its own style and fans, Especially lady's watch. This is one of my watches I like for woman,
I had a smaller one with Solid 18 KT gold....  Quartz operating.

Probably the most beautiful Cartier Lady Dress Watch


Well, this is a beautiful Art Deco design, elegant, slim, 18kt Pink Gold with some finely selected diamonds.....

I am sure not too many beauties can match with this kind of watch, of course, it is a limited edition. "Rare" does it mean that it is expensive? Yes... it is... very expensive!

How much? HKD$420,000.00! I am sure that I can not afford to have one... Even though I had one, donot know to whom of my SheNth should get it... She1st, She2nd, She3rd, She4th...??

Cartier has the best design from Heaven... don't care it is made with quartz movement, even though it is,  So what? Who would Care?
