The Romance of Rose Gold Watches
Written by admin on January 27, 2012 – 11:49 am -For decades, American watch buyers were enthralled by yellow gold, but in recent years that passion has largely shifted to pink and rose gold. Indeed, the rose-gold category has emerged as the leading precious metal available in today’s market. Its warm hues are derived by adding various amounts of copper to gold. The more added, the richer the tone. Depending on the ratio, the resulting color appears softer or richer, with each shade gradient assigned one of three specific codes: 3N, 4N, and 5N—from pale pink to deep, dusky rose.

Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Co-Axial GMT Chronograph Watch
Written by admin on November 6, 2010 – 1:30 am -Omega ups the ante with this new Seamater Aqua Terra GMT Chronograph watch. The timepiece is available in either steel or 18k red gold, and on both versions the hands and hour markers on the dial are in 18k gold. Sounds like Rolex territory to me. Not sure if any previous Seamaster Aqua Terra watches had gold (white) in the dials of even steel watches. The vertical line pattern of the dial is meant to look like the deck of a boat (the "Teak Concept"), which explains part of the ritzy character of the watch. The dial will have highly polished features, and you can tell it is nice and deep to look into. There is of course a metal (steel or gold) bracelet available in addition to the alligator strap. The watch will be a good size at 44mm wide.... more

Omega Five Counter Speedmaster Olympic Watch
Written by admin on November 6, 2010 – 1:00 am -You think that three chronograph counters is enough? Well, some people at Omega consider five counters just right for a watch made by the official timekeeper of the Olympic Games since 1932. Meet the Omega Speedmaster Five Counter chronograph! Although featuring five small counters on a black dial, this iteration of Speedmaster somehow doesn’t feel cluttered or too busy with unnecessary details and markings. Starting from left to right, the counters show (1) a 30-minute chronograph recorder, (2) a 12-hour chronograph recorder, (3) a day indicator (this one will have problems with legibility, I suppose), (4) a 7-day chronograph recorder, and (5) a small seconds counter. The rather large 44mm case can be ordered in either 18kt rose / yellow... more
