Watch Fever's Health Tips for Watcher 2014

Watch Fever Health Tips for Watchers 2014

Without good health, the most expensive watch is just a watch in the Safe, not on your wrist!

Health Tips

Nothing new, just got the latest studies about how to be a bit healthier without strengeous workout for city runners like I.  Some of them you may not know or I had previously ignored.

Food health

No can food, no soft drinks, no Cha Siu (barbeque pork), no roasted goose, as we all know can food has preservative and roasted pork contains burnt carbon.  Once in a while should be Alright.

Diet

Fasting may be the best way to reduce weight and keep you slim and healthy

Wine Lovers

I talked to a French wire expert recently, all red wine need sulphiltes to balance the wine, just that Australia need to indicate in the label while French no need.

 

Egg Yolks?

Egg yolks is more nutritious that egg white, there is no proven medical document saying that egg yolks is related to cholesterol level, eat only good quality egg with reddish yellow yolk.  No Chinese fake eggs, please!

When we should sleep?

We must sleep before 2300! As 2300-0300 is the time your body especially Liver has to do his job to filter off the toxic substance. Actually after 0300, you could wake up and work.

Marathon?

Marathon Run 42KM is not healthy to human body system unless you are doing running  every day, the proper range of Hiking is at best about 10-14Km a day, if more than that, it is just like mechanical wear and tear of an engine with low lubricants, it hurts!

100KM

Running Trail Walker 100Km is a torture to your body and knee joint, and after that you may need to sleep well for 3 months to fully recover to the state before. So It is not recommended for people especially age with >50s as we are slow in recovering. I had stopped running Trail Walker since 2010 after 10 attempts. My record was 22 hours 14 minutes. That is a good record for short legs!

Chair the Killer

Chair is the killer, do not sit more than 1 hour, take a rest, walk a bit, stretch a bit and come back.

Eye Care

Your Lousy LCD Display is the eye killer, take a rest every 20 Minutes. You will agree what I am saying when you are 50, when we are young, nothing bothers us.

3 Minutes Exercise a week?

3 Minutes exercise a week to replace going Gym!

Push-up with the maximum speed and strength you could for 20 seconds, make it three rounds a day as a course, I need probably three courses a week. No sweat, no pain! The most efficient and time saving exercise for you! Like it!? Consult physician if you have heart diseases and history of stroke.

Going gym is for body building, my exercise works for health.

3 times going Rest room a day?

Going toilet 3 times a day is normal, less than three times a day is classified a medical symptom of mild Constipation. You must beware! 95% of HK Chinese believes once per day is good enough…

Sorry I have to stop here as I need to going Toilet now!

Japan could be a good place that you can get a Rolex at a reasonable price!

Japan could be a good place that you can get a Rolex at a reasonable price!

When you go Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto, Shimonoseki, Shinaoka for business, tour or visiting friends, you may also able to buy some of the best watches on Earth at a comparable good price.

Also there have never been hearing a single case of fraud deal in Japanese. They are honest and serious in business.

As Japanese Yen is depreciating, there is a pretty good chance to buy a BNIB, Slightly used Rolex at a good price.

Ref 116610LV used to be selling in HK at $66,100 at Rolex AD under very limited stock!

This is a watch we bought at Komehyo (pre-owned watch market)! It is actually no sign of being used at all. HKD$60,000!

When you visit Japan, check the price in HKD after conversion under the rate that you change your Yen, if that is lower than 95% of HK Rolex AD List price. That is a better deal in HK. Of course if you are VIP of Rolex AD with more discount, that will be another case.

When you pay by Credit card like VISA, there may be having additional 1-2% add on rate on your buying price. So you had  better pay in Cash.

Is a Rolex Day Date Ref 1803 An Old watch for Old man!?

A Rolex Ref 1803 White Gold Day Date in Excellent Plus Condition

Price is likely below HKD$47,000!

An Rolex Day Date current 2013 White Gold Model. It is Pricey!

Day Date Ref 1803

Someone thinks that Rolex Ref 1803 Day Date is not just an old Watch, moreover, that is a watch for Old Man! That may not be wrong as …We know that Day Date Ref 1803 is one of the best watches ever built in 56s-70s.  Day date is made only with “Gold!” no Stainless steel Day Date!

Young Chinese does think Gold is a symbol of money-minded, an icon of Wealth, Shinny, showy, high profile image!

Many Hong Kong Chinese has is a psychological barrier to use something look “Gold” if you are not really rich… Mainlander Tu Hao is an exception….They buy Painting, Stamps, Watches, Antique whatever is expensive could be treated as an Investment.

That is why I  think that there is approximately 99% of HK man aged between 20-30 is wearing stainless steel (or White Gold at most) watches.

There may be about 3% of the man aged between 30-40 wear Gold Colour Gold plated watch.

May be 8% of the men aged between 40-55 uses gold watch including gold plated watch.

After people get aged above 60s, many of them would prefer White Colour stuff again: richer one might go for Platinum or White Gold watches.

There is no solid statistical data to support the saying, those are an estimated percentage from friends I know and observations in Hong Kong.

As for myself, I am now more eager to get a White gold or Platinum watch (If I can afford…) rather than yellow gold.

If I can choose, Platinum, White gold, Pink Gold, Yellow gold, stainless steel.

using DLC, Plastic, Silicon Rubber Fibre–composite, Ceramic as for the watch case material is not my cup of tea unless the watch is below HKD$10,000

Price of a Day Date

There is still a large number of Day Date now I the pre-owned watch market as this is one of the most durable watch on Earth, it lasts almost forever…

As three Day Date in the 60s could possible buy a small Home of 600 Square feet in Kowloon Area.

Day Date was an expensive watch so as now. People would use it with extreme care. Thank god that there are still chance to get the excellent Condition one, Mint one may be a bit hard to get, it is in some collectors’ drawers.

Look at the new 2013 Rolex Day Date that comes with Six colour, Price is HKD$176,000. Even you get VIP discount off 14% today. Still I possibly could by 3.5 pieces of yellow gold 1803, or 2.5 pieces of White Gold 1803. That may be Good enough to buy One excellent Plus 1803 with coloured-dial!

That is fun for Watch Collection, again Ref 1803 is under-valued.

Warning

Rolex 1803 is like Drugs, once you have tried to get one, you will be POSIONED!  

As Rolex Says "it is not just tell time, it tells History!!" Ref 1803 is probably has the best History to tell....

Wish our dream come true in 2014!

2013 is not a very promising year, but that was expected, especially for semiconductor equipment demand.

I hope 2014 is a good year, at least the forecast made by Gartner and iSupply  researchers.

I have a dream or I had better be a Salt-Fish, this is first day of the year, and I hope that…

1. Write cheques correctly as "2014", instead of "2013" especially in coming two weeks

2. Buy a White Gold Daytona or DD 1803 with beautiful “Blue” or “Green”dial, I don’t mind “Grey” or "Black"!

3. Upgrade myself as from a Sham Shui Po Kong Tsan into a Tsim Sha Tsui Snob.

4. Hit Watch Fever pageviews 2,000,000  (Currently at 894,155)

5. Girl-friends do not get pregnant as most of them do not like condoms! :)

 Sometimes they said they took pills but they didn’t! :(

6. Have Sex in the cabin (one of my sex fantasies for years) I don’t mind in the Peak Tram.

7. I can help more people to buy Rolex BNIB with more discount!

I wish your dream for 2014 came true too!

換上黑色DLC塗層錶殼的1681：夜黑城市的最佳伴侶

這個系列的腕錶向製錶大師Daniel Jeanrichard於17世紀末所研製的第一枚腕錶致敬。1681以現代的設計，將經典的手錶演繹出黑夜的原始韻味。於充滿節奏、細意與時尚的夜幕街道上，無論是在明燈的映照下，抑或是於暗角的小巷內，這校腕錶皆是動感的都市人士的理想伴侶。精鋼的腕錶上綴以黑色DLC塗層，配以噴沙處理，充滿啞緻與磨沙的質感。錶盤上的幼葉型時針和分針上，塗上了米色的發光塗層，與漆黑的錶盤形成強烈的對比。腕錶配以原廠制造JR1000自動上弦機芯，於透明玻璃底蓋內，可看到這枚獨有的黑色擺輪，隱約滲透出優雅的型格味道。

 

配上黑色DLC錶殼的Terrascope：奔向夜間開放的土壤與空氣

於繁星滿佈的沙漠上、月缺的高速公路上、了無人知的領域上，JEANRICHARD的旗艦腕錶系列—Terrascope，以全新的黑色DLC塗層外型，與探索者共渡最美麗的夜間。腕錶保留了系列的原有味道，錶殼上的直線緞面打磨及錶圈斜面上的細緻打磨、穩固的構造、以及枕型錶殼與圓型玻璃。時標及指針於啞黑的錶盤上顯得分明，浮凸的處理技術配以及塗上白色的發光物料，讓讀時來得更容易。黑色膠錶帶和精鋼摺扣為腕錶加添了運動的元素。而自動上弦的機械機芯，則為每日24小時提供可靠與準確的時間。

黑面雙色Terrascope：時尚運動型人的黑夜

於精鋼的錶殼的兩旁，玫瑰金的直線錶殼及黑色錶盤為腕錶的一大亮點。這枚全新的雙色Terrascope 替黑夜賦上動感而優雅的意義。這枚腕錶充份體現出格調與悠閒、高尚而真確的完美並存。多層結構的直線緞面錶殼及打磨細緻的斜面，耀眼奪目。啞黑色的錶背，配以浮凸鍍玫瑰金的時標和指針，再塗上發光物料，層次分明，感覺整潔俐落。最後，腕錶配上黑色鱷魚皮帶和精鋼摺扣，為腕錶的終章化上完美的調。自動上弦的機械機芯確保日與夜的時間之精確。所有JEANRICHARD腕錶皆標誌着配戴者的獨特而堅定的個性。
