In the past two years, I had met two young ladis walking into this men's rest room whilse she was talking on the mobile, and eveyrtime I tapped her shoulder and she almost cry out... Not because of me, but....

One of them even talking to her boy friend may be and never noticed she went to a wrong place until she saw some organs that was not supposed to be appearring in her CR she used to go... I noticed her wearing an Solid gold Cartier Bubble!

PS, the urine basic reserved for me not because I am too short, in fact, it is because I am too long! Hmm!

Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 XXL large date, Moon-Phases.

Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 XXL large date, Moon-Phases.

The Vintage 1945 XXL Collection combines proven techniques with uncluttered aesthetics to give its time indications their maximum impact.

The Vintage 1945 Large Date, Moon-Phases model indicates, as well as the hours and minutes, the date and lunar quarters also. Situated on opposite sides of the dial at 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock respectively, the large date fixes the framework for the phases of the moon. The large date is displayed by means of two extremely thin disks, one for the tens, and the other for the units. The date change takes place instantly, in one ten-thousandth of a second.

The new Girard-Perregaux timepieces beat to the rhythm of the GP03300 caliber, the delicate workmanship of which can be seen through the sapphire crystal case back. Entirely designed, manufactured and assembled in the firm's workshops at La Chaux-de-Fonds in Switzerland, the automatic mechanical movement is decorated in keeping with the time-honored requirements of watchmaking tradition.

The layout is beautiful, the Arabic numerals are floating, big date, Curvature crystal add on an Art Deco 1945. The end of WWII, the time we should celebrate. Quick glance in this Pink gold big watch has certain images of Jaeger LeCoultre’s Reverso, but the slug design is different.

Price is more comfortable for someone like me to buy, a very reasonable price for a 222 years of Heritage and history… What do you think!?

Manual Winding Automatic Watch Winder

There is watch Maniac who had once purchased an Audemars Piguet Perpetual Calendar, there is a free Auto Watch Winder with size of a shoe box comes with the expensive Watch.

However that special dry battery cells only can be available at AP AD, it is HKD$250 for the pack of battery that it may be used for a period of three months.

So Friend of mine modified the AP Auto watch winder with a hand crank like mechanism. He saves up the battery cell un-used.

So every time he left office for home, first thing he does is to put the watch with a price of BMW 530 into the watch winder, and manually rotate the handle to wind up the Winder with that AP watch!

He Does it everyday!

Aquascope “Boat Race” model with its self-winding movement.

What I like about this watch is the Satin fine line dial, they are made as a simple way to carry out the touch up for a sport watch design, the size is 44mm, bold and large, clearly to tell the time, big bezel that could not be ambiguous in tell the timer.

Antireflective Sapphire crystal, and Big Hour Pointer is a nice feature. If there is shoulder beside the crown would be a step close to perfect.

Blue is the Colour of the year for Watch, it is never lose the pace in keeping up the fashion. The Red Pointer second is a Icing on the cake.

I am Checking what Special Number we have in HK JR AD so that we can reserve one!

Hong Kong should be proud of itself, being a small city and is world largest Consumption of Luxury Watches!

Hong Kong consumes about 40% of World's Luxury Watch every year. Being the World's Largest Watch Market.

No wonder why the Swiss watch company would have selected Hong Kong as the 2nd location outside Switzerland for World Watch Fair last month.

Rob Brown was accused using a fraudulent Credit card to purchase Movado watch in Macy's NY.

Rob Brown was arrested and handcuffed for using Fake AMEX card buying a Movado Watch At Macy’s

Rob Brown, actor known for his work on the HBO show Treme and from movies like Finding Forrester, Coach Carter, and the recent release, Don Jon, says that he was arrested this summer by officers in Macys in Herald Square after purchasing a $1, 350 Movado watch as a graduation present for his mother.

While making a purchase there, Brown says he was approached by officers out of uniform who arrested him and accused him of using a fake card to buy the watch in Macy’s. He was handcuffed and walked into a holding area for shoplifters inside of Macy’s on an upstairs level.

“They kept telling me, ‘Your card is fake. You’re going to jail,” Brown said in an interview AC360 CNN Yesterday.

After 45 minutes and checking through the actor’s bags, police realized they made a mistake and let him go. Though he was late because of the incident, Brown says he was able to make it to his mother’s graduation (police gave him a ride), but that didn’t stop him from sharing his distaste over the incident on Twitter soon after back in June and the case was on CNN yesterday AC360.

There is many repeated cases that Racial profiling is common in a Country Like USA. What if this case could happened in HK.
