In case you haven’t noticed, Chopard is everywhere! Nearly every red carpet event in the past 12 months has been simply blazing with gorgeous Chopard diamond jewelry, from the Oscars to the Golden Globes and even the Cannes film festival. With mega-stars like Penelope Cruz, Salma Hayek, Sharon Stone, Hilary Swank, and Scarlet Johansson all adorning themselves with Chopard jewelry  designs, the brand is nearly inescapable.

Many of these items are one-of-a-kind pieces from Chopard’s “Haute Joaillerie” collection and carry hefty price tags! However, Chopard has diverse offerings in their various jewelry collections covering price ranges from a couple thousand dollars up to multiple millions.

Their latest offering is the “So Happy” jewelry collection which features bright and colorful gemstones with a unique twist: these gemstones feature a “floating” diamond set right down into their table! If you’d like to take a look at this fun new collection, just pop down to your nearest newsstand and check out Gwen Stefani’s earrings on the cover of the May issue of Harper’s Bazaar.

This fun new collection is designed in sets of matching pendants, earrings, rings and bracelets, and offers a sizable fashion look at a very reasonable price-point. The “floating” diamond has been a trademark design for Chopard for decades, and the “So Happy” jewelry collection takes this unique design element to the next level.

Or at least it seems that way…….

For the horogically inclined American Idol fans it seems like Simon doesn’t have enough cash to buy himself a new watch strap. On American Idol, Simon Cowell regularly wears a Chopard Mille Miglia watch very similar to this Chopard Mille Miglia

If you watch his wrist closely you will see that Simon’s strap keeper is broken and his loose strap frantically flops around his wrist like a hooked trout, distracting many American Idol watch collectors across the USA. Because of the aggravation, Lussori is internally taking up a collection to buy Simon a new watch strap for his Chopard Mille Miglia.

Call us Simon…We are up to $35 as of this morning…..

In the spirit of full disclosure, I should tell you that even the most skilled and knowledgeable timepiece salespeople forget to tell you the following “Donts” of properly maintaining a fine watch (including myself).

With the average repair time for a fine [tag] wristwatch now exceeding 90 days (and often longer) and costing over $300, here are a few things to avoid to keep your watch disappearing to the nearly bottomless black hole of most watch company repair departments. I apologize as my list is going to be far from complete but should hit most of the major causes that we see for repairs:

In no particular order…..

1) If you don’t wear your automatic watch  everyday then you need to give it 30-40 winds before you put it on. Most watches have 42-48 hours of power once fully wound, but if you don’t wear it often and don’t wind it enough before you do occasionally wear it……your going to think it needs repair. It probably doesn’t.

2) If your watch is only water resistant to 30 meters, DON’T get it wet. It may withstand an accidental “light splash” but is NOT meant to be worn in water (and don’t get your leather straps wet, it dramatically shortens the already limited life span of an expensive leather strap). As a matter of fact, the only watches that should be worn in the water are those resistant at a 100 meters or more. Trust me on this one!

3) Do not jolt or shock a mechanical watch. Playing golf with a watch is simply a bad idea. The number of repairs that roll into Rolex’s watch department needing adjustment because of their marketing with people wearing watches while shanking a golf ball, must be enormous. This type of shock will make an automatic watch often run very inaccurately.

4) Don’t put your watch near speakers or magnets. A magnetized watch doesn’t keep very good time. The number of people who take their watches off every night and put it on a speaker is surprising.

5) If you have a watch with a screw down crown, make it a practice to check it everyday, especially before you get the watch wet. It is NOT water resistant unless the crown is screwed down.

6) If you have a heavy watch ( i.e. steel sport watch, gold sport watch, platinum watch on bracelet)….the weight of the watch often causes the bracelet screws to work loose. Have them checked every 6-12 months to avoid a screw falling out and the watch falling off and hitting the pavement.

7) If you have a chronograph, never push the 2 pushers at the same time (one to start and one to stop and reset). Not sure why anybody does this but it seems to happen and it will cause bad things to happen.

More Complicated Watch Warnings

If you have a watch that has pushers to adjust watch functions, do not use them or the crown for “rapid correction” until you’ve read the watch instruction booklet. 95% of complicated calendaring watches suggest the hour hand should be at 6am (southern hemisphere of the watch) when doing any sort of rapid calendaring adjustment with the pushers or crown.

9) If you have a perpetual calendar, NEVER wind the hands backwards. Most have pushers otherwise you do your adjustment via the crown (see comment 8 and your instruction booklet) i.e. IWC Grand Complication, if you over advance the watch using the crown, you will either have to patiently wait for the date to catch up with your over-set watch or send it to the factory to have them set it back.

10) If you have a chiming, hour striker or repeater watch……never jolt or shock it (the gongs don’t like this abuse) and don’t activate the chiming more than once every 30 seconds and certainly NOT until one chiming cycle has finished.

11) Lastly, don’t try and polish your own watch. Its ok to wipe off the fingerprints etc with a soft cloth (avoid any polishing cloths that have polishing compound in them). Never try to polish titanium as its usually sandblasted/beaded at the factory and the correct finish can only be replicated there. For white gold, if you polish it (bad idea), you will remove the final rhodium treatment that most brands add to make it look shiner and whiter, so if you polish it, it will likely take of the rhodium finish and give it an ugly yellowish tinge, yikes!

Adhere to most of these DONT’s and you’ll find your watch will work better and be in less need of lengthy, overly expensive repairs.

 Most Sales and Earnings reports for watch companies in 2006 saw strong growth across the board. LVMH (Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy, owners of Tag Heuer, Zenith and others) saw their watch and jewelry sales increase 26%. The Bulgari Group saw it’s overall watch business up 8% (including their Gerald Genta and Daniel Roth brands). And the Swatch Group (owner of Blancpain, Breguet, Omega, Glashutte and many more was more than 12%.

Pick up a copy of weekend edition of the NY Times and the first 6 pages have so many brand advertisements that it looks like a watch and jewelry catalog. Add to this the number of new brands continuing to sprout up and you wonder how long the market can continue to buy and absorb this new product?

If you think about it, as fast as the US market is growing in terms of luxury consumption, several other foreign markets are growing faster. Examples of such are China, India, Russia and even parts of the Middle East. Projections show that the rapid economic growth of India and China will have their overall economies larger than that of the US in 10 plus years. If this is true, then these markets will become increasingly important to the Luxury Good Companies trying to tap into the affluent consumer. These economies will pick up the slack as the US economy slows and the US consumers simply can’t buy as many Ferrari’s, Bentleys, Breguets and Gulf Stream Jets as the faster growing economies abroad.

Wondering why its getting harder to get those limited edition timepieces or big important stones? Chances are, its because more and more “specialty items” are going to the Chinese and Eastern European markets where the appetite for extreme luxury is unprecedented.

It seems that everything associated with fine Swiss timepieces is expensive these days. Yes as connissieur I do realize the level of expertise and the excruiating attention to deal with which most of these watches are manufactured. But replacing a leather strap on your fine timepiece, while expensive, often $300 – $700 per strap, can make the watch look and feel like an entirely new watch (without the significant investment for a new watch). A black strap on a back dial watch is always a favorite but to spice it up, put a dark brown, tan or camel strap on it. Compare the images at the top of this page.

For those of you living in a hot climate like myself (I live in California) having 2 straps for a timepiece makes the most sense. Heat and perspiration are the enemies of a bueatiful leather strap, so often, I buy a rubber strap or kevlar strap and change seasonally. It gives the watch a more sporty look and is more resistant to persperation. Companies like Bell & Ross , IWC , Ulysee Nardin , Harry Winston , Girard-Perregaux , Corum and Omega make great rubber straps, often in an array of cool, fun colors and sometimes even elegant.

There’s always that next great watch to buy and hey, I’m a fan, so I’ll likely go out and buy it. But, when I need a quick fix and a new look, I change the strap!

First McDreamy, then McSteamy, what next McNerdy and McStinky?

If you got my joke, you know that Greys Anatomy is one of the hottest shows on television, and with good reason. With some crazy story lines, on-set fighting, adultery, an awesome soundtrack….. how could you not watch this show?

I am going to admit something here…….and I will probably loose my “Guy Card” for admitting this, but I actually watched an entire season of Greys Anatomy with my wife and it was actually pretty good.

I admitted it. Done.

But, before anyone goes yanking my “Guy Card” understand the following:

A- She was sick for five days with the flu.

B-This occurred over an entire weekend and I couldn’t leave her alone (that would have been mean)

AND

C-I think there was a bit of a Stockholm Syndrome thing going on in my head, so back off haters!

So what does this have to do with the world of watches you may ask?

Well, it turns out that almost all the guys on the show have a bit of a watch fetish. Isaiah Washington (the homophobe) wears a big ole Panerai on the set, Patrick Dempsey (Mc Dreamy) wears a lot of JeanRichard (including a torubillon), and Eric Dane AKA Mc Steamy is shown above wearing the ever popular IWC Aquatimer .

Apparently there are entire coalitions of women dedicated to “Team Mc Dreamy” or “Team Mc Steamy”. I think my wife is on the “Team Mc Dreamy” but I’m not sure….

  Sapphire and Ruby gemstones are both part of the corundum family of gemstones. Ruby is corundum material occurring in various shades of red. Sapphire is corundum material of nearly any other color including but not limited to blue, yellow, purple and green.

It is a little known and understood fact that the large majority of jewelry-quality sapphire and ruby gemstones are actually heat treated to improve their color. This is a relatively harmless procedure which results in increased clarity and improved color. Sapphire and ruby gemstones of desirable color that have not been heat treated are extremely rare and can command prices as high as $100,000 per carat or more.

When these sapphires and rubies come up for sale, they are almost always presented with certification from an independent gem grading institution such as the AGTA or Gueblin. Certification from one of these institutions provides information regarding the origin of the gemstone, and also notes any indication of treatment the stone may have been subjected to. Though it is very rare, heat treated sapphires and rubies of top quality can command prices very close to those of certified untreated sapphires and rubies.

Lussori offers an unparalleled selection of fine ruby and sapphire jewelry. Many of our pieces contain extremely rare certified untreated natural rubies and sapphires, often of significant carat weight. If you have any questions regarding these extraordinary items, feel free to call us.

This July, Arnold Schwarzenegger is officially beginning his “golden years”.

Thats right, the Last Action Governor, is officially turning 60 years old. Wow! thats a lot of candles.

I actually believe 60 candles on a cake is officially a fire hazard in California and could be illegal in most other states during most summer months.

Who would have thought that Conan the Barbarian would some day grown up to be the Governor of “Caaaal-eee-forrrrn-ya”.

Always a huge watch collector, this former Kindergarden Cop not only collects watches, but also has consulted on a few limited editions for Audemars Piguet.

Those days are over and the Governator is now focusing 100% of his time on politics. A few years ago, Schwarzenegger Totally Recalled former California governor, Grey Davis, and quickly became a political Running Man.

With a little charisma and a bad Austrian accent, this political Predator went on the warpath and it was soon the End of Days for Grey Davis.

Ironically, the man who threatened to “take down the girlie-men” is seen here photographed holding his “girlie-man” shopping bag while exiting the ultra high-end frou-frou Barney’s department store in Los Angeles.

Now, did I mention this man doesn’t look a day over 45? He has less grey hair then most men in their mid-thirties.

While I am pretty sure the hair color is fake (there is definitely no argument there) , I am positive the IWC Big Pilot on his wrist is 100% real. The IWC Big Pilot is one of the most sought after IWC’s in current production. When Lussori acquires an IWC Big Pilot, it is usually gone within a week. This 46mm beast is ultra popular with most celebrities as you will see the likes of John Mayer, Jason Statham and many other celebrities wearing this ample timepiece.

While the IWC Big Pilot is a great watch, Schwarzenegger is definitely not a “Stand by your Brand” kind of guy. he has also been photographed wearing Audemars Piguet, Rolex, and Panerai, so it looks as if the IWC Big Pilot is simply his “Tuesday Watch”.
