And you thought Watches were boring ?

Erotic-WatchesLet’s face it, the watch industry is never thought of much as sensual or erotic.  Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock is the main feature on your watch.  Yes, some watches are designed to go underwater (dive watches) and some up in the sky (pilot watches) … and others are jam packed with features like day/date, tourbillions, moon phases, etc., etc.  No one that I know of has every said that a watch is sensual or erotic.  Now I know that those fancy designers will tell you all about the great “lines” of the watch but really.  When was the last time your wife/girlfriend/partner said to you “Baby, that watch really turns me on.”  I hope you are laughing as hysterically as I am (:-) ROTF LMAO).  But wait a minute … take a look at this or the picture on the right for two samples.  If you can’t tell what is going on drop me an email and I will get back to you about “The Birds and the Bees”.  Hmmmmm … while not that often, I guess a watch can be erotic :-)

Papier, Carta, 紙

No matter the language, it says “paper”.  So what does paper have to do with watches ?  Manufactures have been experimenting with all types of materials over the years to incorporate in watches including gold, silver, diamonds, and many other types of precious metals and stones including all the way to moon dust.  Of course for most of us, the more of those ingredients the less likely we will own one and for some reason that is just the way many watch manufacturers want it (that commentary is for another day :-) LOL).  But for you and me, here is a great looking watch that you can own several of without breaking the bank and yes, the main material is paper.  I don’t usually mention brands by name but in this case I suggest you go to the Patch Watchwebsite for more information and the website is pretty “awesome”, “cool”, “rad” or “groovie” depending on where you are in life :-) LOL.  Me, as you might expect … I like something a little more traditional but edgy.

We Agree … Uh, Mostly …

We were quite pleased when Ariel Adams (ABlogToReadAbout) decided to review the Môntrèk Black Square Diver Watch. He always gives each watch he reviews a fair shake and respects the fact that time and talent has gone into the product regardless of the size of the manufacturer. So like the title says, we agree with him … mostly. The only comment that we feel differently about would be his “wish” for a Swiss Movement. Beyond the additional cost of a Swiss movement that YOU would have to pay, I don’t see any Swiss manufacturers offering anything similar to our exclusive 10 year warranty. Of course our 10 year warrantycovers more than just the movement and stands as our confidence in the extreme quality and build in all our Môntrèk Watches. So thanks again Ariel for taking the time to review our product – We Agree … Uh, Mostly :-) LOL !!!!!
