Tsuen Wan is the terminus of the MTR Red Lane, I can say this is the central hub between East and West of New territories. An Important transportation terminal.

 



 

Even as late as in the 1950s, Chung On Street was still the only significant road in Tsuen Wan, and a small bazaar was formed here.

In the 1930s, the former Heung Yee Kuk chairman, Mr. Chan Wing On, founded “Dai Chung Teahouse” and “Ping On Pharmacy” in the area, and “Chung On Street” was named after these two shops.

Chung On Street in Tsuen Wan, better known as the "jewellery and goldsmith square" started  four years ago,

There are a few Rolex AD Shops there, namely Chow Seng Seng, two Chow Tai Fook and Tai Hing, where are within the same street.

Next Time, if you pass by Tsuen Wan, stop and look for some of the best local stuff there.

There are The Famous Wing Chun School, The Ti Da Clinic, the best Egg Omelets and Beef Noodles of Cala cafe.

The Melon Seed King, and the shop I used to buy Chinese special paper for my Calligraphy practice.

Don't forget Tsuen Wan has a lot of gold smith. As for Rolex AD, it carries sometimes a small surprise for you.

Why as most of the people would like to shop a TST?
 

Who will come to Tsuen Wan to Buy Rolex…so, it may be a hidden treasure for you.

PS or you may or may not know, the Hong Kong Highest Sauna is in Chung On Street...

Kathy's Rolex Daytona in 18KT Yellow Gold Ref 116528

 

Kathy the Ambassador appeared at IFC L'occitane yesterday... for promotion...Being one of her secret admirers....and I used to look at her long leg first and then her smile that that does make your coffee sweetened automatically, but this time, my eyes were caught by her Watch... “A Gold Daytona”

This Queen of the goddess stands at 175cm which is about 12 inches taller than I!

Though, I don't know what word is best to tell about her, I was fascinated by both she and her watch…

This is the Daytona I love too, no matters for men or women... It is gorgeous!

This is one of the Perfect of All Powerful Rolex Factors:

Sportive, Ceramic Bezel, 40mm, Colour and Contrast and Four Seasons watch.

Her watch looks like Ref 116528 Daytona in yellow gold MSRP HK$262,000

 




Rolex Daytona Ref 116505 2015

 

The one I like also, Ref 116505 Daytona Pink Gold with Ceramic Bezel, MSRP HK$269,300

Rolex Daytona already exists with ceramic bezels. The first one introduced in 2011 was the Pink Gold ‘Everose’ edition but on a leather strap and with a chocolate brown dial.

If you get by parallel import the price of Ref 116505 is about HKD$200,600.

Expensive to buy, Cheap to use!

I asked one of our sales managers what his first consideration of buying a pair of shoes.

He said:

First wearing comfort, then the shoes should lasts for minimum one year, and what price?

OK! That is almost the answer for average men…

If for very rich business man, he might think that a pair of shoes should be comfort to wear and an outstanding look, after all, the others are not too important at all.

If for Movie star, then will be different story, first consideration is good looking, second is comfort as they probably will wear them once only.

How about Car?

Well, if I were able to choose for just one car, I may select a Tesla Model X. Especially it fits City drive of HK.

When I buy, I Will consider these factors.

Quality
Durability
Technology
Brand name
Price

Good Stuff has good quality and it lasts, though it is a bit more expensive, but after years, they still perform like new… that is the satisfaction It brings me…

Parker 51 seems to be the most practical pen for me….
The attached one is a Burgundy with a rare Sterling Silver cap , it writes smoothly and it is always ready to.

I used to have a Zwilling twin snap red with aircraft aluminum handle, It is RED, sharp to be seen and sharp to cut. I had bought it 25 years ago. Until now, I have not taken for a sharpening at all, it can cut newspaper with its razor like blade!

For shoes, I have been using Ferragamo, Valentino, Clarks, Florsheim, Rockport, Timberland, Lloyd…

Until Now I think Only Clarks provide me 100% total Satisfaction and best performance with price over time.

The Active Air vent is one of the best feature  
Clarks is having besides the shoes itself is it Super comfort.

Watch, needless to say…. This is a Rolex Blog….

For these products I have mentioned here, The Tesla should work.  I mean I should not have any concern on electronics reliability.

As  Automotive industry has a very stringent requirements on reliability and test on those electronic and semiconductor being used. 

These are all a bit Expensive to buy, Cheap to use…

Next time when you make a purchase, think again why do you buy them for? 

And you should be happy going along with them because you have made a wise decision to purchase them.

Besides, they are all great brands....

Special Note when you purchase Rolex in Japan.

Whilst you are going to Japan for shopping, you might want to buy a Rolex for your own use or even for Collection.

Beware that you have to remind the sales executive not to remove the tape on your Brand New Rolex in advance.

As many of our friends were not aware , after the payment is settled, they remove the tape of the Watch faster than you can see....


So if that is for Collection, it has been automatically transformed from e Brand New into USED Rolex.

Please remind them and make sure they understand before you pay for that, same thing has happened colleague of mine bought a Deep Sea Black a Bucherer, even!

Note if I am wrong in reading this or they have used the wrong currency, this Bespoke "Russian Coat of Arm" Luxury Phone made by Falcon is asking Minimum  USD$525,000!

I guess that they have to pay a lot for the royalty on using that Russian Coat of Arm?

It seems that no one has seen a real Falcon iPhone, I am trying to see it, It must be well made!

Any one who has seen one? Please show me as I wanna see how does it look like with a half a Million Dollar Phone!


I,  Being an ambassadors of Omega Elite, I make our price of our Bespoke iPhone6 or 6S under order is selling with basic 24 KT yellow Gold, Rosegold or Platinum with merely USD$6,500 in Hong Kong. I think that is a reasonable price with certain margin that we can generate more R & D for our next Product like no others!

Omega Elite Production line is almost full now, we can only deliver a custom design iPhone in not less than 3 weeks.

Second Hand Love And Second Hand Watch

Park Hotel Maximillian , Regensburg, Germany

Park Hotel Room that I used to Stay , Room 204!

Though late at night, I sit alone and count the tears that fall.

 I'd rather have this kind of love, then not see you at all.

 My friends all say, I'm better off if we should drift apart.

 But everyday, I hope and pray I'll be first in your heart.

It's all over town, you put me down.

 I'm a second hand love, a second hand love...

 Just a second hand love, a second hand love….

This is a beautiful sweet song sung by Connie Francis…

I don't mind second hand or third hand love, so long she loves me more!

I have thought of friends who never like Second hand stuff, no matter, car, bags, handphone…  house,….and watches!

That is not because of just Narcissism that he wants something perfect and he loves thing to be brand Mint!

Of course, he has to pay more for Mint Daytona Paul Newman than a used one.

Well, true, no one tends to use something that has been used by someone before… some old Chinese has saying that “pre-owned Watch?” That watch possibly been worn by someone who has passed away…..

They Said “Dai Gut Lai Si" (大吉利是)， I don't know how to translate it…May be….“very bad luck”

I rather don’t have such concern and sometimes I found some old watch could even brought be “Lai Si”，(利是) Good Luck!

May be the owner was a great person who brings me some of his “Spirit”  (靈氣) if that is JFK’s Rolex!?  It worth a big fortune!

I have been seeing one chap only wearing that “White Gold Day Date “Every day, that that was one he bought from pre-owned market. He says, Thing gets SMOOTH! He had tried to get rid of it, thing become UNSMOOOTH”

Is that superstitious?

 JFK's Rolex Day Date

Martin Ruther King's Rolex Date Just

In the market some of the used watches are more expensive that brand new Watches, of course there are a lot used watches are cheaper than the mint new in box!

Think this way, the Room 204 of Maximilian hotel Regensburg which was built on 1890 had definitely been people dying on the exact location when you sleep in the bed. In. So should you go for a new hotel for checking in!? Of course no way.

When you sit in the first class seat 4C of Cathay pacific, have you even thought of that exact seat had been having a DEAD passenger who died of stroke in the air!?  OK, next time book seat No. 13A….haha!

It depends how you look at this matter at all, Guang Xi people tends to put one Small Coffin in the living room as it bring in Good Fortune, “ Getting Rich and getting promotion.

Only you can decide if that is good for you or not. Don't care too much is that new or old.
