New Interactive Watch Guide on JIC Website

The Jewelry Information Center (JIC) has launched a new interactive Watch Guide on its consumer website.

The new Watch Guide enables consumers to describe the timepiece of their choice by responding to a series of questions. After compilation of the data, the system specifies features that the potential watch buyer might consider when purchasing a watch.

The website also features an interactive Watch Guide section, which offers a list of watch-buying tips. An interactive glossary enables consumers to seek out key watch terms and acquire definitions along with visual illustrations.

Do you have a collection of watches? Or do you at least own a watch? Is it real? Is it genuine? Or is it a replica? Having a watch and wearing it around our wrist makes us time conscious. And it is not a bad habit or bad connotation. In fact, I consider it as a positive character because it will lessen our tardiness when it comes to work, school, or meetings.

What things do you consider when buying a watch? Does it have to be big? Does it have to be small? Does it have to be Rolex? Or any watch will do as long as it tells you the correct time? Owning a factual watch would cost us a lot of money but buying a fabricated watch will not stay long on your ownership. So, what watch does an individual really need?

You need to consider many things. Though it’s just a watch, you might want to own something that is good, useful, and affordable. A material that is expensive is not always beneficial and not all low-priced things are useless. Sometimes, you just need to be meticulous to possess the things that you really want and you really need.

Now let’s see the most common factors that you need to consider in selecting a watch:

Holiday or birthday coming up and once again there’s that one person who is impossible to buy for because they seem to have everything. Is this person a basketball fan?

Every NBA basketball team from the Atlanta Hawks to the Washington Wizards have a logo watch. These watches are top quality and great time pieces, as well as featuring the official team logo and name.

Finding the perfect NBA logo watch is not difficult at all.

Engineered to the nth degree, the Omega watch brand is a staple on many a well-to-do man’s dresser; tucked safely away inside its luxurious velvet box, ensuring that this extremely fine timepiece will be free from dust and scratches when not eloquently strapped to its owner’s wrist.

The fakes are getting BETTER every day. Rolex replica watches, and other replicas have become inexpensive and most important of all, a high quality, therefore it is very important to chose the right replica retailer. Computer-aided design and high-tech CNC machinery means that the counterfeiters can produce watches that can be NEARLY VISUALLY IDENTICAL to the genuine watch! Without knowing what tell-tale signs to look for, the average watch buyer may fall prey to scammers and fraud. Recently, we’ve seen watches sell for THOUSANDS of dollars that were easily identifiable as fakes.

Born in Switzerland on July 11th 1958, of an Italian mother and a Swiss father, Franck Muller was raised in a multicultural environment. From a very early age, he develops a growing interest for all mechanical devices. It does not take long before the young Franck starts to disassemble all the machines in the house to study their “hearts”. During his teens, he collects antique astrological instruments that he buys at the flea market. Mechanics and time, an equation reveals itself naturally: it is Time to which he is going to devote himself.
