| Time flies when you watch your Jewelry Watch | | Posted Thursday, February 02, 2006 2:53:37 PM by Kate Grant | Only a few decades ago, a gold watch was something you received after working fifty years in one place, on the occasion of your retirement. 
Today, when people move and change their jobs and workplaces all the time, a jewelry watch is something that is still meaningful, but its no longer represent the years gone by. Diamond watches have become a part of the "bling bling" fashion, following Rap and Hip hop artists who made wearing heavy jewelry or "iced" jewelry (meaning covered with diamonds) and showing them off, an art form.
Those watches even influenced ladies watches, that come in a much refined shape, but are still covered with those mostly fake diamonds. If you plan to give a jewelry watch to your loved one, try finding out what style they like. Would they a metallic watch with a few diamonds to mark the hours, or should it have a leather strap?
What color should the face of the watch be? A classic white, a daring black or maybe a cute pink? Looking for jewelry watches on the web is a good place to begin, since jewelery stores usually don't carry such a wide selection.

On Friday, Esad Kolenovic, 38, pleaded guilty in state Superior Court in Somerville to 36 counts of burglary, theft and fraudulent use of credit cards, Somerset County Prosecutor Wayne J. Forrest said. "This was a significant case that affected many victims and included some very good investigative work," Forrest said. "I think the sentence is appropriate.

| | | More men embrace jewelry | | Posted Friday, September 22, 2006 3:02:18 AM by Blog57 Team | | El Paso jeweler Rene Flores remembers a time when a man would walk into his shop and shell out cash for something nice for himself, not for the women in his life. It was decades ago, at the height of the Mr. T hysteria, when the '80s icon drowned himself in an extreme amount of gold jewelry (at one point, his gold chains, rings and bracelets were worth about $300,000). It's not back to that point yet, but more men are pampering themselves with designer watches, bracelets and diamond rings. "Guys don't wear a lot of jewelry, but they will wear a nice watch and a nice ring," said Flores, who owns Flores Jewelers at 1515 Lee Treviño in the Capistrano Center. "There are a lot of times when I'm talking to a customer who wants to get something for her husband, and I'll ask if all he wears is a wedding .... | |
