Seiko Kinetic Watch Perpetual

Seiko Invented Kinetic which has both Auto watch rotor for winding up and accurate of Quartz Watch. The Kinetic Power was used to charge up a power capacity (Battery Cell) and the Battery cell is then drive up the quartz watch module.

However by right after 5-7 years we have to replace the Rechargeable Battery Cell.

One drsaw back is that the battery is expensive... It is about HKD$200.00 a piece, if you go through Seiko AD, it is more.. So Kinetic quartz is no more popular ...My Guess only!

HK Watch market in the 60s'

This is a picture taken at Causeway Bay Tramway Terminus in 1962, note the Ad of Rolex and Longines

What is the Major bellowed brand of Watch in HK in 1960.
I my experience, these are the watch from Switzerland to be popular in HK. Note that Omega earned a better fame than Rolex in 1950 and 1960 because of the Success of Constellation series, and After 1960’s Rolex gained a lot of market share from the Success of Submariner, Explorer and Day Date Series.
This is my categorized watch ranking in 1960s’
Super Hi Class Patek Philippe, Audemas Piguet and Vacheron Constantin
Hi End Omega, Rolex,
Middle class Longines, Rado, Mido
Lower class E. Borel, Titus, Titoni, Tugaris

Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Tradionnelle World Time Watch

This is a Beautiful Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Traditionnelle World Time Watch Pink Sold gold, beautiful hand craft globe printing, displaying 37 cities for those Travelers walking through the SQ, CX, First Class cabinet, every time the stewardess asks your seat number, you just say “ 1A… 12C…. or Upper deck… Wow, you should equip this watch to show your world Traveler business man status…
But one thing I do not like… It does not display City “Hong Kong”! WHY?
Hong Kong is Under Beijing now!? Oh man, that is why those Northern Old Chaps say Yes, our Donald Dumb will say yes… Those Old Chap say “No” then Donald Dumb would dare not to say “Yes…” indeed he is a good Order follower… HK needs you… But Hong Kong People do not need you… the next Executive Office would be even worse… so as Chinese say “The new crab will be inferior than the previous one” HK Snob

It is constructed with the same beautiful Lake Warm Blue panel and glass in the same dimensions of a McIntosh Power Amplifier. Price!? USD$2,000.00 Cheap as you know how much McIntosh build their Chassis? Or you can use this new McIntosh plinth to put your 1969 MC2100 Power Amplifier in.. Awesome!

Roger Dubuis Will Be Tomorrow's Classic for your Hand Today.

Founded in 1995, ROGER DUBUIS did indeed receive the Poinçon de Genève for all watches. Its founding philosophy based on traditional culture and the most advanced technology. It soon occupies an original, exclusive position in the prestigious watch manufactures. It’s new Pacific Place show room is just renovated recently and I went to see last Sunday. Well the most attractive watches are display in the front window Double tourbillon Excalibur Watch.
The Reason why I like Roger Dubuis is their Super Bold design that is an Avant-garde and latest Manufacturing Technology with Swiss Watch tradition. It is quite different with Patek Philippe and Audemar Piguet, I would Rate Roger Dubuis the Tomorrow's Classic, that is right for your hand Today...if you could afford it!

Wind power Watch

French Designer Julien Moise made this Eco Watch with power from a Puff of air that rotate the turbine for generation of Electricity to power the watch for Visual Display.
But I doubt that it should contain a tiny battery cell to keep the quartz timer to be in operative. If you can get rid of the battery, that will be great.

James Bond's Choice of Watch:Omega Seamaster or...

Someone said the Omega Seamaster was a better watch comparing with Rolex Say Submariner but he wouldn't own one. Well, if this is 1960, Definitely it is as Omega produces the best watch in the 60’s. There is a separate review for the Omega on the site that says it's a great watch. Some watch snobs say nice things about the Seamaster but criticize it for having "James Bond Editions" saying a company like Rolex would never do that.
There are many clothing & style snobs who say it is completely wrong to wear a Rolex or Omega style bracelet watch with a suit or tux and say it shows poor style for James Bond to do it. I personally plan on getting an Omega, probably the Black face Seamaster but not the 007edition. This is the non-James-bond version with Sapphire Crystal. Friend of mine intending to sell to me at HKD$9,000.00 Good Deal to be a James Bond Watch!!

This watch is yet to reach HK, as many friends have asked about this watch, in fact from what I know fro the AD, those shop managers and or AD senior Manager would like to Hold and Keep this watch for himself, his relatives and his VIP Customers, before they are displayed for sales I the shops.

The Detail engineering specification as follows
The Ref 216570 Explorer II actually features a brand new movement Cal 3187, which is manufactured completely in-house by Rolex. The upgrades include Paraflex shock absorbers and parachrom hairspring.The case is 42mm and the watch comes with both black and white dials.
