Jarus Introduction
Just the other day, I was quite upset because of a comment to my post by one of the fellow members in the earlier forum. I was even contemplating about leaving the forum. What stopped me from leaving was an explanation given to me by another member on what was originally meant. This clearly showed that each member respected each other and whatever was said was normally with no malice intent. This is What I call as brotherhood. I was quite happy to stay and now I have just followed the entire lot.Well not many people know about me as I never used to post much. I am now going to make an effort to do so more regularlyAbout myself I am from India live in a city called chennai. City is known primarily for temples.

Watch Wear Statistics Sept 2009
Another month is over, so it is time to put up my watch wear stats for September.Here is the number of wears each watch got during the month:Unsurprisingly, the Longines Grande Vitesse continue to be my main wear. I just love this watch! I wear it most weekdays, which is why it got so many wears. Also, this month I was quite busy and didn't get home until a bit later than usual. This meant that I didn't have time to change (and change watches) before launching in to kids play, dinner, bath, pj's, story and bed. By the time that is all over it hardly seems worth changing, so many watches that would get a wear during the week of an evening didn't this month. I should make sure I change watches of an evening to share the love! I did tonight, and am enjoying my Seiko SKXS35.And now the overall average wears per week. this takes into account the length of time I have owned a watch. So the Heuer Autavia fares pretty well, since I have worn it a few times since its arrival:The Longines Dolce

Not for the first time I’m hearing and reading that Rolex are looking to position themselves in the Uber luxury segment with reduced production likely to increase pricing thru demand. Currency fluctuations aside we haven’t seen a price increase for a number of years but the trend is there for all to see with preowned prices and if the reduced output strategy is only Half true I wonder if the end game may well be in sight for many more.Of course one could assume that others will fill the void, Omega ,JLC and IWC etc etc will no doubt step up and their watches will in turn increase exponentially until they too are symbols of ultimate luxury. Of course Nomos and other entry level watches will then fill that void and become the sought after brand of tomorrowI admit i may be being a little bit pessimistic but in an odd sort of way i’m largely done with Rolex for myself and any future buys will be gifts for my wife and daughter. In truth I’ve probably got all I coul
