Bigger is Better


It’s an interesting conundrum that watchmakers are dealt with these days. Time is so ubiquitous that you really don’t need to have a watch to tell time. I used to be a regular watch wearer until I got my iPhone and then since I hold my phone wherever I go, it became easier to just check on the phone than the watch. So now I think of watches as an accessory, a sort of bracelet or bangle with the added function to tell time. I’ve been looking to get some statement watches at a reasonable price and came across Invicta Watches at ShopNBC. Here are a few that I think has potential, particularly the black and rose gold one. Although I'm obviously still in a summer mood as the other colours I've chosen are bright popping happy colours. Hmm what do you think? Which should I get?

Million Dollar Baby



Hong Kong is renowned as a shopaholic’s paradise whether you are in it for the luxury brands or the disposable fashion. The Langham Hong Kong is hoping to offer the luxury loving shopping fiend a “Million Dollar Nights” experience. So what exactly is this promotion I hear you ask? The hotel has partnered with Roger Dubuis to offer their guests a personal consultation with one of their timepiece experts. So where does the million dollars part come in? Well, if you decide to part with a million bucks for one of Roger Dubuis’ timepieces (for they are too expensive to be merely named watches) then the luxury brand will pay for the entire hotel package which includes two nights’ accommodation in the Premier Suite at The Langham Hong Kong, champagne upon arrival, daily breakfast served in-room and dinner for two at Tang Court.

Of course, if the extravagant prices of the watches scare you off (I hear they average at one million bucks a piece and goes up to five million for some) but you want to partake in this experience, this package will cost you HK$19,500+10%. Practically a steal compared to five million bucks right?
