When purchasing watches, no one is questioned with how to wear watches, actually. This appears to be logical and rational. Nevertheless, the simplest things happen to be complicated sometimes. Everything is made from details and details sometimes mean far more than the whole. People who really wander how to wear watches properly exist and they are really concerned in this issue.
The Cuban leader Fidel Castro, a revolutionary Che Gevara, politicians Winston Churchill and Bill Clinton, writers Somerset Maugham and Mark Twain, the actor and the political figure Arnold Schwarzenegger – these names are well-known and these figures are best known to the world for their political, social, literary and other achievements. Moreover, the abovementioned people highly esteem cigar smoking and, thus, they come as people who own the greatest number of tools and accessories so requisite for this leisurely process and among others there are cigar lighters.
In the light of a variety and availability of glass items, glass ware is still appreciated by plenty people, especially when it comes to cut glass. The cut glass produces a long, lingering and musical tune when you put your finger at the cut-glass edge. So, in Japan the craftsmen make unique musical instruments. A crystal violin, completely transparent, is estimated for fifty thousand USD. Crystal glass tableware is not so much expensive though it is able to produce the charming, unique and so brittle music providing it is properly cared.

Hublot Watches
Sunday, 27 September 2009
In 1980 Carlo Crocco first manufactured the gold named
Hublot with the wristlet of black rubber. And this very first model of watch is
believed to be the example that put the changes to all the levels of watch
making. The royal families were the first people who dragged
attention to Hublot, and the trend was successfully accepted by the
celebrities. Carlo Crocco was risky, though Hublot was acknowledged as one of
the trendiest brands in the watch making sphere. The splendid shape of the
watch, black dial plate in minimalism style and the very typical for the
Company wristlet of natural rubber.
The unique wristlet has the ability to regenerate when
in contact with the skin. The wristlet parts ideally fit the wrist of the bearer
and are comfortable, soft and elegant.
In the middle of 90s the rubber appeared to be the top
material for manufacturers. It proved the fact that the rubber is the right
thing to work for Hublot. For the Hublot brand rubber is not the trendy material
but the actual philosophy, life style and image of the Company from its first
days. Hublot remains one of the family manufactures with unique mono-product.
Carlo Crocco so concerned and adored with his own
designer works and MDM Fund activity, was looking for a person to delegate the
authority to manage the Company. And he successfully met Jean-Claude Biver who
took over the reins of Hublot.
He was enthusiastic to develop the Company in the
future. He was one of those people really were remarkable in the history of
watch making.
Supervised by the new Chief Executive Officer Hublot
Company reconsidered its philosophy, yet Jean-Claude introduced the concept of
merging too different materials as gold and ceramics, tantalum and pink gold,
tantalum and magnum.
In addition to materials merging, the new concept
provided the merging of the Swiss traditions of watch making with the watch
art, while adhering to the unique design of Hublot watches.
In a year Jean-Claude Biver succeeded when he launched
the collection Bazel in April 2005 presenting the Big Bang by Hublot being the
wonderful merging concept. That was the triumph and there was the rise in
orders for watches. A few months later Big Bang was awarded the first
international Design Award of 2005 at Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix followed by
the Best Sport Award at the Watches of the Year Ceremony in Japan.
In June 2006 Jean- Biver launched Hublot TV the first
Internet TC Channel created by the luxury brand. The Channel makes and
announces new on Hublot world.
From then on, keeping the previous shape, it was
released in various sizes with assorted complications such as Tourbillon, Large
Date, Power Reserve Indicator, Split Seconds.
The merging concept worked at the highest possible
extent. The model was manufactured in the diameter of 4mm and 44mm. In 2007 the third version in the model line
for divers was presented, Big Bang King with 48mm case. Though, the watches sit
ideally for both thin and wide wrists.
In early 2007 Jean -Claude Biver was acknowledged as
the Best Manager in Watch making Sphere and as the Best Communicator.
In February 2007 Hublot opened its first brand store
in Paris, in Saint-Honoré Street.
In October the Company launched its first watches
manufactured by own facilities. Hublot developed the design based on the newest
alloy of aluminum and magnum, Hublonium, used in production of mechanisms and
cases for Mag Bang models! Mag Bang was awarded the
«Best Technology
Innovation
». Later on, the watches were accepted as the Best Watches by
Caesar magazine.
The Company still keeps manufacturing Classic Watches
demanded by over 30% customers. With the attempts made by Jean-Claude this
collection renewed.
In early 2008 the Company launched the first model of
Big Bang watches especially for women with the diameter of 38mm, with bazel
reinforced with diamonds, but no chronographer.
In April the owner of the Company Carlo Crocco sold it
to the French Group LVMH, the world-known leader in manufacture of luxury
goods. Hublot Company symbolizes the brand that compliments to the highest
possible extent the watch making sphere of
LVMH Group.
Hublot brand is also associated with playing golf,
polo, mountain skiing, rallies and tennis through contests and tournaments held
by those that support the brand. Prior to the Euro 2008 Championship in
Switzerland and Austria, Jean-Claude Biver first among the sponsors introduced
the trendy luxury stuff. That was the strategy of the good entrepreneur.
A student or a
business man, shirts are found in the wardrobe of any men living a social life.
Anyone following fashion tendencies owns a pair of slim fit shirts for any
occasions to distinguish against other common shirts. This kind of shirts is
less trendy for mature men since the design of shirts requires fit and athletic
torso which is rarely available with men over 45. Men’s slim fit shirts are
good to fit with any suits, in loose manner, tightly fit in trousers.
Lingerie for women was just the plain underwear until the 20th century when it became the mean self-expression, as the subject of esthetic admiration. A piece of lingerie seen in between the women wear looked quite shocking to be shame and no one thought of designing luxury items based on lingerie, leaving alone works of art. Today every woman dreams of having a pair, or even more, of luxury and high quality lingerie to associate with sexuality, sensibility and attraction with male.
Lancome brand is appreciated globally as one of the most recognizable manufacturer of perfume and body care cosmetic products. Lancome is the brand to boast with the assortment of scents appraised by lots of women from all over the world. That is not the triumph for a day. That is the niche the brand keeps as the manufacturer of classic fragrances. So, Tresor launched in the 50s, the legendary and so romantic Poeme, and delicate Attraction that is demanded beyond the time. In the year 2008 that Lancome house presented another fragrance, Lancome Magnifique.
Florence Nightingale, also known as Elizabeth Arden globally, became the real revolution-maker in the cosmetic industry. The brand Elizabeth Arden estabvlished by Graham, was the one of the first companies that produced natural and high quality cosmetic products, indeed, acknowledged by the royal persons. Moreover, the decorative cosmetics are at last accepted in the political society thanks to the brand founder.
