Well isn’t this *interesting*. ?Ǭ�A recent note from Concord announcing the company’s new “official fine art collection for mechanical watch and interior design enthusiasts.” Wall Art? For interior design enthusiasts? ?Ǭ�Seriously, what is this?OK, OK watch companies create some cool “accessories” every now and then – for example we have seen cuff links from Patek Philippe, cuff links from Stepan Sarpaneva, fine pens from Girard-Perregaux, Montblanc, and others. And also now we have the new cell phone coming from Ulysse Nardin, and the long ago announced Tag Heuer’s Meridiist cell phone (by the way whatever happened to this?)But now we hear of wall art from Concord? ?Ǭ�This seems just ridiculous in my opinion. ?Ǭ�I think the occasional jewelry type accessory (cuff links, pens etc) have a place in the lineup, but at the end of the day these watch companies should stick with what they do best – make watches. ?Ǭ�Branching out into wall art seems simply absurd to me.What do you think? ?Ǭ�Feel free to share your comments below.Kyle Stults is Founder & President of , a new online community for watch owners, collectors & enthusiasts.

Of course, you don't need to be a mariner to wear a Concord Mariner watch �C you can wear these watches to a business meeting, the opera, shopping, or running. If you're curious to know what a mariner is, read on.A mariner is someone who operates, maintains or services a boat or other water-based vessel. Seafarers hold a whole range of positions to ensure the smooth running of a water vessel: whether you’re Chief Mate or Able Seaman or Oiler, your role is important.Deck crew are responsible for the general maintenance and running of the ship: they take care of the ship's hull and cargo gear, and might supervise diving and salvage operations. In the engineering department, crew maintain the propulsion systems, sewage, lighting, air condition, water and other systems.In the steward's department, the Chief Steward, the Chief Cook and the Steward's Assistant are responsible for preparing and serving meals, baking, cleaning accommodations, planning menus, and purchasing supplies. Other ship roles include Purser, who handles all money on board, Hospital Corpsman, Medical Doctor and Nurse.So, next time you glance down at your Concord Mariner watch, think of all the seafarers hard at work!
