Antique Watch Parts

The earliest mention of the watch was in Shakespeares play “As You Like It.” In the second act of the play one character produces a sun-dial from his pocket and muses about the time. Though at this time in history a true, portable timekeeping piece would have been too much of a hassle. Coming up with a powers source for the watch was impossible at this time. But in the 1500s Peter Henlein from Germany created the first pocket watch. And from that point on portable timekeeping was part of the norm.

Guess Watches

Founded in late 1970s, by French-born brothers Maurice and Paul Marciano, Guess took the chic world by storm with its contemporary denim collection that rejuvenated the denim industry and made jeans a hot culture once again. The Guess approach is novel and sets the standards for etiquette. The designs offered are sensuous, timeless, durable, and trendy. Soon, Guess became famous for its voguish images and primrose designs, not only in jeans, but also in a wide combination of clothing and accessories. The first collection of timepieces became two within a few years and now Guess has become a leading designer of fashion timepieces worldwide. You have worn their jeans with love for two decades and now it is time to get one of their beautiful watches. Guess offers the leading lifestyle collection of casual and classic accessories both for women and men. Some of the new ones are:

Without a watch faithfully telling people the exact time, many men and women feel naked. While walking down any street, count how many people are wearing watches compared to those without. A watch is the one thing that guarantees you are always on time for any meeting, appointment, or other event.

Collecting vintage watches is a growing hobby in most parts of the western world. Men, particularly, are attracted by the romance and novelty of having a micro-engine on their wrist as both a time-teller and an image statement.

One of the most frustrating aspects of collecting vintage watches is the number of fakes, frankenwatches and fraudsters one encounters in pursuit of this noble, but increasingly costly, passion.

A wrist watch is a piece of jewellery, a status symbol and a functional device to let you know when you should be somewhere or doing something special like picking the children up from school.

As a piece of jewellery it can show your friends, guests and acquaintances whether you are a person of means or not. If you are wearing a $1,000 wrist watch then people will be able to tell something about you, or at least if they knew what your watch was worth then they would make an opinion of you. It?s not like a cell phone. No one ever thinks that a person?s cell phone is expensive, unique or a status symbol. But a watch is different.
