Ten Fun Things to do with Luxury Watches: like Rolex, Breitling, Omega, Patek, JLC and many others

A book not only about collecting watchesâ€¦

Ten fun things you can do with luxury watchesâ€¦ well, ok, it ended up being thirteen
things, not ten. But that already says a lot. And no, it not only says that you get 30%
more than you payed forâ€¦ it says something about watches and about having watches as a
hobby.

A luxury watch is not just a watch. You can do a lot of smart, fun and interesting things
with a watch, inspired by a watch or in companianship with a watch.

This ebook will give you some ideas, inspiration and even reason, why some people are
interested in these very special watches and often frantically collect them. Keep in
mind: we are talking about watches that are 'defined' by these peculiar characteristics:
they are made in Switzerland and they are at least $5000.

Of course there is more to a 'real' luxury watch than these two base characteristics. A
lot of people narrow the whole industry that consists of dozens of companies down to about
9 really important companies: Rolex, Omega, Breitling (that much about the companies you
probably already heard about) and there is Patek-Philippe, Audemars Piguet and Vacheron
Constantain, who are called the Holy Trinity (!) and there is Jaeger-LeCoultre, Breguet
and IWC, who areâ€¦ wellâ€¦ also very important. For a first take you can ignore all the
others. Perhaps you will encounter Hublot and Panerai and other brands that try to
distinguish themselves from the mainstream. They can be entertaining tooâ€¦

Watches are a really rewarding hobby. You can do a lot of things with watches and around
them. They are a kind of technology that is around for about 300 years and the oldest
companies in the market are nearly there from the very beginning. So you can learn a lot
about very different areas on this very peculiar, very special and very secluded market:
about luxury of course, also about style, about beauty, about technology, about marketing,
about riches and rich people, about capital, money and lasting value, about time and
timelessness, about fun and application, about diving, space travel, precision measurement
and last but not least about the biggest secret of them all: about time.

So let's have a little stroll around and look what watches have got in for you. There is
something that you will find interesting or even inspiring. Trust me and come with me for
a few precious moments togetherâ€¦
